Well, these ones only eat animals cos they saw that one scene in Interview With The Vampie, so they're sad.

Another fair point, also why are vampires so damn mopey all the time?They're predators, most predatory species tend to be pretty damn satisfied with themselves, seeing how they're on top of the food chain.

Incidentally I have a far more easy time believing the girl is the vampire, there's an aura of reanimated corpse about her much more than the gloomy looking dude.

Maybe you wouldn't be so cheerful if you couldn't go out all day and had to stay on a liquid diet all your life.  The night life is especially rough in small towns where everything closes down at 6PM.  Imagine knowing that a shaft of sunlight or a dip in the river could end your "eternal" life, and that you would never taste pasta or cheesecake again. =o


Of course, some vampire have no excuse.

Maybe mopeyness is a behavioral adaptation to attract nommable members of the opposite sex? =o

Then again, this was written by someone who thought that naming the heroine of her vampire junk novels "Bella" was clever.....

I can't believe I'm doing this.

My cousin dragged me to see this movie a while back, so I can actually answer this:

Okay....he's a 100 and some odd year old vampire who sparkles in sunlight....


  • Who isn't sparkling in this shot
  • And can somehow manage to register for school without ID or parents

Continuity?!?!?!?!?

Apparently the sparkle mania only happens in direct sunlight, which is why the Northwest is appealing to vamps because it's always overcast. He also belongs to a coven that pretends they're a "foster family" so technically he has parents.

As with all vampire mush, the hero is mopey while the villain is happy as a little clam! I guess acceptance of the fact that you eat people is the way to bliss in the vampire world.
Dammit, Maverick! Why don't you play by the rules?!

I think a certain royal adviser once said something on that subject....

Of course being true to oneself might also get you run through as you hide behind curtains but there we go. :)

So it's the lack of a good BM then? That can make people grumpy certainly.

Wouldn't an all liquid diet mean that you wouldn't need to have a BM?

I could survive without that part of human existance.

Nah you'd still excrete it'd just not be terribly satisfying.

Goodfellas and all three Godfather movies.

Godfather was just terrible.  Goodfellas was awful too.  Mainly, I despise mafia movies or TV shows.  Mafia types are evil, violent, horrible criminals, who should not be glamorized in this fashion.  The Sopranos was a bane to existence.

Doctor Who?

I'm sorry but I can't hate any movie that is as well made as The Godfather and Goodfellas.

Also I have seen the trailers and thanks to every Tv in public playing Twilight I have seen about half of the movie.

I really want to see it destroyed or riffed.

Ugh.  Maybe in terms of production values they were well made, but a movie packed full of detestable characters set up as the ostensible protagonists is not well made in my book.  I'd rather watch Twilight, Titanic, and the collected works of Friedberg/Seltzer.


Doctor Who?

Also in terms of acting.

If you don't like gangster movies there is no way you were going to like those movies,doesn't mean they were badly made.

I don't really like musicals but I don't call summer stock badly made.

You say you despise Mafia movies, so really it is the genre that you dislike, and not the movies themselves.
Just like I despise horror movies.  I don't have to pick out particular horror movies that I hate because I hate the entire genre.

Yeah I guess you and BTA have a point.

But I stand by my assertion that ever Godfather movie, Goodfellas, and every episode of The Sopranos should be destroyed in an inferno.  In fact, let's just erase Joe Pesci from history.
