Okay, my topic for today is vampires-vampire movies in particular... i know most of you have at least heard of the upcoming movie Twilight, inspired by the world's bestselling novel written by Stephenie Meyer. I have read all of her books and i must say, They had me up all night wanting more and more.. Now, back to vampires. if anyone has read any books, seen any movies about vampires, here is the best place to talk about them. so and i have a little question i would like you to put at the very end of you reply... if you were to write a book where there are vampires, what would happen, now my question is optional

Amelia Atwater-Rhodes writes beautiful and captivating vampire stories. If I were to publish a vampire stories, I would write a book or short fanfics based on her work.

I have mixed feelings about the first Underworld movie. The second one made me want to kill myself.
My husband complains that it defies the laws of physics.
I liked the first Lost Boys film.
I'm excited to see The Lost Boys: The Tribe, just because I'm a curious kind of gal. My curiosity always gets the better of me.
...I find that I always cheer for the Vampires.
Though sometimes I do like the Vampire Hunter, like in the Vampire Hunter D books and movies, which I adore.
Though I'd like to see a Vampire movie lacking in romance, where the Vampire is neither malicious and completely self-serving nor angsty and sappy nor completely stoic and "mysterious".
...My Vampire story includes a brief moment to make fun of Twilight.
Please don't kill me, I thought it was funny. xd

Of course I've read the Twilight series, but I'm not so looking forward to the movie. Of course, I'm gonna go see it to see if it does justice to the books, but that's about all I'm looking forward too.
Then there's the epic win of Interview With the Vampire! Anne Rice is by far the champion of vampire fiction, though Stephanie Meyer is defintely a very close 2nd. That would probably be my fav vampire tale to date. And also, the movie with Brad Pitt also = major win! And it's not often I like book-to-movie deals, but hey, it worked.
Lastly, but certainly not least, my beloved Blood Ties series by the lovely Miss Tanya Huff. I adore the character of Henry Fitzroy & Vicki Nelson! Gawd, I so miss that show! Damn stupid lifetime! Damn them to the fiery, flatulent pits of hell!
And that's as far as my vampire fiction collection spans, but always looking for another good book. Any suggestions?
Oh, and as for your optional question, I'm not sure, but I know my main character would be named Anniya. Last name Late. Anniya Late, get it? xD I crack myself up! What would she do? Uh, no clue. She's mostly just been a figment of my imagination. Thought about putting her into a fanfic with Henry Fitzroy, but that never came to fruition. Maybe one day....

I could name two vampire anime's but I don't think that's what your looking for. How about an old movie with Keanu Reeves in it. It's called Bram Stoker's Dracula. The two vampire anime's I know of are Vampire Hunter D, (Bloodlust).

Blade was good.
Blade 2 was ok.
Blade: Trinity wasn't so great.
Is it me, or do films usually get steadily worse after the first? Interview with the Vampire was pretty good. Bit of a crap ending to it though.

Bit of a crap ending to it though. They do get worse which is why the third movie is supposed to bring the audience back.

The Buffy the Vampire Slayer series makes a great target, not just because of it's popularity, but also, 1) there are seven seasons, each episode an hour long, to pick at, 2) the fans are so devoted and pay such attention to every detail, all you have to do is say, "Nancy Tribe", and they point at each other and laugh. I enjoy it quite a bit. It's especially fun when you know you're going to have a very small group of readers, and that their chances of getting your references are high.

I know it's off topic but have you noticed that second movies tend to have sex in them?
