With the new Twilight movie hype and the new season of Trueblood, I have been wondering what is up with the Vampires? I love them, most of you love them... but why? They have appeared in our movies since movies began, but they used to be more bad than good. Now, at least one of them is a protagonist.
it makes sense that there are so many robots in the movies these days: our world is increasingly irobotic. However, we are not all growing fangs, so why the return to the monsters of earlier days?
I don't really have an answer except maybe its the vegan lobby to make people understand how important it is to reject their natural impulse to feed on meat. Or else, maybe its a lesson in how we have to end our reliance on liquid fuel for the good of humanity and conserve our resources. Okay, these are a stretch.. maybe its because we all crave a bad boy trying to be good and sweet. What do all these vamps have in common?
1. Angel and Spike from Buffy the Vampire Slayer (I know you all want Edward Cullen up here, but Buffy came first!) Dark, but with quirky humor
2. Edward Cullen from Twilight and Jasper (<3) and Emmet and Carlisle for that matter. dark, repressed, dramatic
3. Bill Compton (and Eric for that matter) from Trueblood. dark gentleman.
vampire diaries etc are coming...
all I can really say is... we like dark.
