I'm so sick of all these Vampires

Has anyone else noticed that every other movie, or TV show that comes out is about vampires.

Its really starting to get to me. Twilight actually beat Dark Knight in the MTV movie awards. Thats just so wrong.

I think vampires will never be able to recover from twilight or at least no in the near future.

"Eventually this trend will end and the idiots will find something else to ruin. "
In that case, I don't want it to be ninjas. "
Ninja's have already been ruined. There are many different types of vampires as it seems that every vampire fiction has a different sort of vampire. Some are good and some are bad. The vampires from Peeps by Scott Westerfield are good for example. I liked them.The Twilight Vampires are an abomination. Crappy characters in crappy fiction.And they sparkle. WTF is with that? "
there is a ninja movie coming out i think next year: its about a defective ninja who i believe ends up hunting the other ninjas that he defected from: set in modern times and they are the modern world's greatest unknown assassins. and there is also what i think is a awsome movie about vampires....this one is set in the future.. its called daybreakers i wanna fckn check this out..twilight was gay and i think 30 days of nights had a great depiction of vampires... "
 As a film student I personally think 30 days of night was a terrible film, it was just ridiculous violence. Even though the graphic novel was great and all the violence in the book was brutal it looked better because of the art style.
 The films decapitation was just for shocker value, there was no artistic value behind it.

Take a look for yourself.

Don't get me wrong the Twilight series  was good to read, the movie was horrible though.. The thing that i hate is how people are going crazy for Edward.. Like that is not a true Vampire. Last time i checked they burn!!! in the sunlight, not shine.... And WTF how could Edward beat any super hero. He is a sissy compared to a hero. Come on Squirrel Girl will beat his @$$ with even being blind folded.

Its not that they are different types of vampires its that fans are ignoring the original concept and then saying they know everything about vampires.
I'm sorry but a no one should be allowed to call themselves vampire experts if they only base their info on twilight.

I agree. Its wrong to say you can't write a vampire story as you like and contribute to the vampire mythos, if Stephenie Meyer wants to write about vampires who sprout chicken wings, then good for her, but ever since UnderWorld all the studios and networks are trying to cash in on the vampire hype. The movie theaters are drowning in vampire filcks. When does it end? I just saw a trailer for some movie, that looked just like a recycled 30 Days of Night. I can't remeber the title.

What does twilight contribute exactly? Twinkling Vampires? There is nothing good about that story, movie or otherwise...nothing. I had to watch it with my Girlfriend and it pissed me off.

There is always going to be someone who doesn't like the story, and someone who likes the story. Most of us don't like Twilight, but that doesn't mean that we are the authority on good vampire stories. To each his own.

 The problems are:   1. There are too many vampire movies.
                                      2. There is no way in hell that Twilight should have beat Dark Knight in anything.

A contribution brings something to the mythos. It doesn't try to change the mythos.

The problem is not that they changed the original vampire, I don't mind that, its that Twilight fans are only caring about twilight and not appreciating previous vampire stories that were good and had something to contribute to the vampire mythology.

Nah I know about it. Actually, I started reading the book just to see what the werewolves were like(Stop halfway cause it went back to the Vampires). So, far they seems pretty cool. They are very pack-like which is cool. But, all I really hope for is that they look cool like in the Van Helsing movie cause so far they seem alright.

I think why the new movies are liked so much is that; vampires have been given an ability to think. We used to have vampire and werewolf movies, where the person turned, loses all his senses and is just a raging beast out to kill, not just for food but just for fun; even more beast like than wolves for example, at least they could think. I have always hated those movies where they show them as beasts. There for I'm all for re-inventing vampires and werewolf and their ability to think.

" They're not even cool Vampires. Thanks to Twilight, we now are in the times of wussy (female-idealized) vampires (although Anne Rice apparently contributed, though I haven't heard of much of her work). What happened to Dracula? Back when Vampires, were, you know, evil and interesting and whatnot? They had style? Class?Hell, I'd even prefer to dumbed-down, revved up zombie style vampires, like in 30 Days of Night. "
What did happen to all those classy vampires. I would like a new vampire movie to come out and the main villain to remind you of Hannibal Lector or Dracula; classy, hunger for human flesh, entertaining, super-intelligent, and everything else that makes them popular. 
 
Also they should make them die in the sunlight, I'm tried of all of the other alternatives.

I know! I saw this dude at my school wearing a Secret Invasion T-shirt, and when I asked him about it he didn't even know what it was. People have no culture.The Lost Boys is the greatest vampire film ever. "
I had a conversation with a guy about The Hulk and all he knew was what he had seen or read in both movies and probably some crappy website. I can respect people who admit they don't know and ask questions but not if you're just basis his info on a movie.Nosferatu is my favorite vampire film. "

@TheBug:  It beat Dark Knight because tween girls are their highest voting block and Twilight had more pretty boys. MTV is hardly high class TV. This is the netwrok that has a show called "Date My Mom". Do they even show music videos anymore?
 
Even the CW is going to be coming out with some vampire tween drama. I saw commercials for it. I honestly thought it was a commercial for the next Twilight movie.

I didn't start this as a hate thread. I was just trying to make a point that vampires have become a tired overused genre. It sort of morphed into a hate thread along the way.

Twilight is definitely up there for worst movie I have ever had the misfortune to sit through. Girlfriends should not be allowed to pick films.
