I'm not complaining about Twilight because they make the vampires "wrong". I think it's actually pretty funny joking about it.

I agree, Yuki.

I actually had a conversation with someone who said she was upset about the differences between Twilight vampires and real vampires.

I was like, "Really? You know they're fictional, right?"

Because apparently she'd never read a vampire book or seen a vampire movie before she wrote the books. She knew almost nothing about vampires, and everything she knew was from word-of-mouth.

...and then she decided to write a novel without doing any research. And it got published.

....yeah. xD

I don't like books about Mary Sues... and the whole romance between her and Edward was completely unrealistic.

There, not just the sparkles. The author is talent-less >.<


Gozed - I still prefer vampires. haha

@Yuki/Johnny: LOL, well I actually liked the first two books, way back before all the hype. The third wasn't that great and the fourth was just ridiculous. But the lore-lover in me feels like: if you're going to change the way something works, fine. If she wanted her vampires to sparkle, fine. But do your research first, and admit that you changed it, and talk about why you did...even if your reason is just "because I wanted to". She was surprised it was different. That's the part that gets to me xD

I'd rather be invulnerable than immortal. Thats basically what the war of werewolves and vampires normally dies down to.

Haha. Vampires are cool but I wouldn't want to be a vampire OR a werewolf. I don't want to live forever (Tuck Everlasting, anyone?) and I don't want to turn into a wolf on the full moon, either. xD

The only thing that vampires should follow is drinking blood to survive. duh Not tomatoes or ketchup. *lol* Besides that they can be anything you want.

@Sakura:

Uh, read my previous posts on that subject.

@Alexander:
My biggest issue was the incredibly creepy, horrible relationship between Bella and Edward. He had all the attributes of a mentally and emotionally abusive boyfriend, and she was freakishly obsessed with everything about him to the point where, when he left her, she went into a depression-induced semi-comatose state for eight months.

That shit isn't normal, and Stephanie Meyer is writing it like it's normal and selling it to pre-teen girls who don't know any better. An entire generation of girls is growing up thinking things like, "If he removes the engine block from my car, forbids me to see any of my friends, and plays emotional yo-yo with me, it means he loves me!"

*dipkisses Yuki* Morning my love.

-steals my hot pocket back then runs of to continue pixeling-

Believe me, I've read a lot of stuff about her reasonings behind making her vampires different, and she did say "they're different because I wanted them to be different." I don't know who told you that the was "surprised" to find out that they were different from regular vampires, but they weren't telling the truth...

Sephy@ *was eating a muffin* ;q pfth
