are any of you as obsessed with vampires as I am? I have always had an attraction and fascination with vampires.  What are your favorite vampire movies? Any good vampire stories? What are some of your favorite books that deal with vampires?  I am currently reading, Twilight. I haven't seen the movie yet, I heard that the movie wasn't as good as the books...but I will have to be the judge of that sometime. :D

ERIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am in love with the Twilight Saga!
I am re-vamping it right now for the 6th time!
Obsessed much? LOL
The movie was/is amazing! Of course, it can't compare to everything that is in the book, but as long as you know the premise, you will love the movie!!!


I also love any and all things written by Anne Rice. Managed to pick up a copy of Interview with a Vampire for $2 brand new!

I don't read these books, but I'm sitting here in red and black.  Of all the monsters and stuff I love vampires.  It fasinates me that It all stared from a fiction book making fun of a prince.  Now there are people that drink blood.  I have at least three vampire parodies somewhere. I'm much closer to a black swan then a white one.  I could be latent

:D

The movie Let The Right One In is a must see.  It is a Swedish movie so you do have to endure subtitles.  Like Twilight it is about a (child) vampire and (child) human relationship but without the sparkles.  If you can not find the DVD, it is available on Megavideo.

My daughter bugged me to buy the Twilight Saga for her (it is very popular at her school) and because it was there I decided to read them myself.

'In dreams, I walk, with you, ... in dreams I dine on you'.

The movie Dracula with Bela Lugosi is one of my favorites.  I also like Dark Shadows.

Only here briefly - heading over to the sofa to read more of New Moon.... for the 6th time! ;D

I need a life - I know this! 8)

I loved the Twilight books too, but I haven't seen the movie yet.  I can't wait though!

I completely enjoyed the movie Girl! But don't go in thinking it is the exact same as the book. You will be disappointed. You have to tell me when you see it! I think The Son and I are going to go see it again on the 12th! lol

i wish we all lived closer...we could go see it together!!!

we could all set a screening time, rent it and then settle down to watch at approx. the same time?

That would work. ;)

I am still holding out that The Son and I are gonna go see it on the 12th.
It will only be our second time - so it isn't like I am pulling a Titanic! (Saw it 12 times in the theater) :o ;D

I've done that with friends and my mother. We'll call each other and watch together... usually idol tho. That way we can crack on the "singers"

I do like fictional vampires very much.

I love watching vampire movies, mostly.

I promised to go see it with my sisters and a couple of friends, but trying to coordinate our schedules has been impossible.  I've been tempted to sneak out and just see it by myself!

Wouldn't that be fun?!?  I wish!

12 times!?!  Holy crap.  I thought I was bad for seeing Mamma Mia 4 times in the theatre!

So I FINALLY saw Twilight, and I loved it!  I had heard some bad things - people said that it skimmed over the book and didn't go very deep into the characters.  I guess I can see where people were coming from.  If I hadn't read the book, I probably would have been confused.  But all in all, I really loved the movie, and especially loved the casting of Robert Pattison as Edward.  He was an absolute dream.

Excellent Ash! Now promise me you will NOT go see it again!
The Son and I went for a second time and we were so disappointed with it. We critiqued it so bad. Really upset that we went again. Although hubby went with us - and we laughed more at him falling asleep and somewhat snoring than anything else! ;D

Really?  I don't understand!  It wasn't as good the second time?  I was totally planning on seeing it again with my sister.  That, and to stare at Edward some more...

You can do it if you wish! I completely enjoyed staring at Robert and Jackson and Kellen.....

But Kristen Stewart's acting sucked! (IMHO) ;)
I didn't pay much attention to it the first time... but the second time I did... 8-P

In have to admit that i do love the book...not as much as some....not as much as most really but it is a fantastic book.
First time through the movie was great but it was only great because i wanted to see it so bad.

Second time you pay more attention to a few thing like how SOME People can't act as well as others...!Cough! Kristen Stewart !Cough!
It definately left much to be desired the second time around.

And Ash, it didn't totally suck - just us being critical.
Personally, we should have never gone again.
That's not to say that it truly sucked, because it has made over $210,318,408 (as of yesterday) so there is something to say about the books' following. And I am still just as much in love with the books as ever, but seeing the movie again for me made me kind of get over it. :-\\

Now there is one point where you and I differ - I did NOT like Jackson as Jasper.  I imagined him so differently.  Kellen was fine, but not Jackson.  Nuh uh.

I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised with Kristen when I first started watching the movie.  Like, I had only seen pictures of her and I wasn't very happy when I saw that they picked her for Bella.  But once I started watching the movie, I liked her and I think she's really beautiful.  But I totally agree that she messed up more than a few lines.    And sometimes her voice was just so flat.  Am I making sense?  She isn't going to win any Oscars...that's for sure!

Books are so different.  I have read Harry Potter, I don't know how many times, but the movies, I can take or leave.  These are the same way.  The books will ALWAYS be better!

See above.  ;D

yes you are making lots of sense. She is an ok looking girl but she just didnt really show any emotion in the movie. One thing that tam and I really dont like is her stuttering...I thinks its really annoying and in the Book bella has no trouble getting her words out when she is hurt by something edward says... Only when he intoxicates her with is breath. :D

LOL!

But yeah...the "real" Bella never had a problem getting her point across.  It's one of the things that makes her so cool.

I pictured Jasper being WAY BIGGER! And for some reason I gave him longer hair too.
His acting though - it was the directors fault.
Just like the biology scene - Robert over-acted it a lot, because of how CH told him to do it.

Kristen - fits Bella to a T - in the looks department.
But she didn't portray that she was absolutely and irrevocably in love. She looked more bored than anything. ???

LOL!

I just imagined Jasper's look to be so different.  I can't even describe how...it just wasn't what they picked.  I thought Alice was perfect though.

What did you guys think of Rosalie?  I wasn't thrilled with her either.  Oh, and Jacob!  I pictured Jacob a lot bigger.  And more manly.

I liked Carlisle and Esme though.  And I liked the guy that played Charlie too.

Alice was perfect!!!!
Didn't like Rosalie - not the actor, but the way the screenplay changed her. (She isn't one of my favorites in the books either) ;)
Jacob and Sam Uley - neither fit who I thought they were. Sam was supposed to be HUGE!
Loved Carlisle and Esme! Completely! And Billy Burke was awesome as Charlie - although I pictured him to be a bit older....

Mike Newton annoyed me.
So did Jessica
Loved Angela though...

See, I over-analyzed it! ;D

Alice is muh girlfriend ;) ;).

I think they definately could have picked someone better looking  for Rosalie and i think Carlisle and Esme were perfect as well.

Jacob.... for some reason when i read the books i pictured him white even though it was stated numerous times that he had russet skin. I did picture him taller with a bit more muscle.

Alice is muh girlfriend ;) ;).




Awww.  She is quite striking!


Jacob.... for some reason when i read the books i pictured him white even though it was stated numerous times that he had russet skin. I did picture him taller with a bit more muscle.




I also pictured him taller and with more muscle.  Though in all fairness, he is a lot younger than Bella in the first book.  But I don't know, I just thought the actor was almost pretty.  And I never pictured Jacob to be pretty.



Sam was supposed to be HUGE!


I always pictured Will Sampson as Sam.  And in real life, he was 6'7.  Sadly, he passed away in 1987.   :\'(

wow...I really need to go see this!!!!

yeah but now I'm gonna be focusing on how bad Kristen Stewart's 'acting' is  ;D

;D ;D

really if you take away her acting skills, or lack of, and the horrible directing then it is a decent movie... especially the beseball scene.

I went and saw it with my sister for the second time last night, and I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised.  I don't know if I was just expecting it to be awful, or what, but it was great.  Even Kristin.  I'm sorry guys, but I still love it!  ;D

I will say this though, whenever Edward would run super fast, or jump or whatever, it looked ridiculous.  Just silly.  My sister and I did laugh at that.

It's all good Girl. 8)
To each their own.

Like I said, I think I personally was over-critical of it because I had read the dang story 6 times, and the hype the first weekend... well, I can't say I remembered everything about the movie, so the second time I caught a lot more.

I'm glad you liked it! Makes me feel good for not having ruined for you. ;)

Oh man..I saw Twilight today...and I have to say that I think I held my breath during the entire movie. It was the most erotic and sexual tension filled movie...without any drop of sex....seriously...I felt like melting. Edward was so breathtaking. :-*

I know, huh!  Oh my gosh, every time he smiled it just took my breath away.  The way his eyes would crinkle.  WOO!

If he's Edward Cullen it is!  Have you read the books?  Cause if you fell in love with him in the movie...you would REALLY REALLY REALLY fall in love with him in the books.  http://www.inthe00s.com/smile/01/1luvu.gif

I was the exact same way the first time I saw it.
I am trying to relish my initial viewing - keep it fresh like that!

You are not the only one so completely in love with Rob Pattinson Edward Cullen.
For a man of a mere 22 years, he makes my heart race. Poor Big Nasty had to compete for about 5 weeks with Edward - because I couldn't put the books down and re-re-re-read them!!! ;D

I hated the main part of New Moon so much that my first couple of re-reads, I skipped it to get to the other part. ;)
I know I shouldn't have, but I have since read it cover to cover, and value the story line, although I still wish I could get to the end faster each time! ;)


That's almost exactly what my sister said last night.  As the movie was ending she said "no! I want it to keep going forever!"


Erin and Ash - have either of you read Midnight Sun yet?
You know - Twilight from Edward's point of view? (Actually, it is only 12 chapters, unfinished, but truly breathtaking.)
I can direct you as to where to read it if you like.... 8)

have you seen the series? Buffy the Vampire Layer Slayer hooks up with Angel (a vampire) in season 2 as a direct result of sleeping with her, he turns evil... then once he's turned good again- she can never sleep with him again but it doesn't stop her from loving him.

Eventually she hooks up with Spike (another vampire in season 6) I mean... really--- I mean really did she forget her slayer mission statement? her job was to slay vampires... its like that old joke about the monk who was supposed to look over the transcriptions of the old books of the bible... he found a typo... they were supposed to celebrate...not be celebate  ;D
