Could it be? Vampire are getting irritating?! How could it happen?!

IT IS SAD THAT VAMPIRES ARE BEING DESTROYED!!!

I think Twilight wasn't terrible, but then it sparked a whole horrible vampire books/movies craze. Then Stephanie Meyer continued the series but wrote it, instead of actually trying to make it good, like a crappy movie. Like, it could have been really good if Stephanie Meyer didn't just want to make money. The thing that sucks is that now the good vampire stuff that came about before Twilight is now pulled under the 'vampire craze' umbrella.

I watched Underworld because of the Werewolves vs Vampire thing. I find that it was only ok... After that I wasn't really into the vampire thing anymore. Maybe the Blade: Vampire Hunter movies were kinda fun to watch, but that's all.

I read the first Vampire Knight volume and just didn't care about it... But I think I'm reading one of the best vampire stories in a while, Dance in the Vampire Bund! Anything else besides Vampire Bund is non-existent to me.

Also, if you haven't had a chance to watch the recent BBC series "Being Human", you should. It has some awesome vampiring.

American Vampire might help turn things around:

I don't know about you, but Alucard is still not getting annoying.

Twilight is the murderer of the vampire genre... Just like Harry Potter killed almost all of my interest in wizards. (Though I admit the books were good when I was younger.)

Some kids came Trick-or-Treating at my house. 2 siblings. The girl was Bella and the boy was Edward. I asked them who they were for Halloween and the girl said "I'm Bella Swan! From Twilight!". She was about 8. Her brother, about 10, said "I'm a fairyfaggot!" I think he was my favorite costume of all time.

But seriously though, Twilight burnt out anything Vampire related for me. Except Anne Rice books. I own all of them.

I just want to make this clear: VAMPIRES DO NOT SPARKLE!

I'll have to say it again (said this many times to my friends)...having tween vampire issues is WAY TOO much..I mean did Twilight pretty much kill the whole vampire genre in one sitting, IMHO it did.

Before this there was Bram Stokers Dracula, the Anne Rice series, the Underworld movies, the Sookie Stackhouse books/series, the Vampire Hunter D books/anime, the Undead Saga books, and tons more...but OMG give me a frikking break does there have to be a teen angst movie even about probally the most beloved fansty realm too!?!?!?!?

Hate to say this but Stephanie Meyer (sp) killed it for everyone

ik it's quite sad how once twilight came out there have been many competing movies... therefore making the whole vampire thing getting old. which is is very depressing for me because i have always loved vampires. so in the end i blame twilight 4 killing the vampire spirit. :(

I like the whole Vampire thing, and I started to get into it around when I was nine when I first played "Vampire The Masquerade: Redemption". Even more so when that movie Underworld came out. But...holy god, once the Twilight movie hit, it got annoying. I mean, sure, some of it started with the book, but even when the books first started coming out, it wasn't very popular (initially).

No, you're not alone on this one. I'm with ya!

And aren't vampires supposed to burn when they're exposed to sunlight? >.<
