Vampires are mythological beings, you don't take advantage and deform the myth to fit your story.

I noticed you don't see the bad side of this. Yes it is a movie, but do you know how much influence do movies have nowadays? A lot of kids watch Twilight and they will grow up thinking vampires sparkle when they expose to light. It will fuck up and entire mythology. I don't believe in vampires but I like mythology and I respect it as it is. I hate when a shitty writer fucks up all these great treasure we have with a shitty movie.

Take Underworld for example, again. It was more than amazing for me and they did not modify the actual myth. Lycans, were a race invented for the movie, but they did not mess up with Vampires and Werewolves at all. Actually they depicted vampires as the myth says, they don't care about humans but only for their bloodline.

Get it now? It's not just a simple movie. I'm talking about influence.

If you want to make your kids looney, this is the way to go. =)

no , no. i see the bad side of this. but theirs a difference between myth,facts, and entertainment. im a fan of star wars but i dont get mad at the fact that theirs explosions and gun fire in space when sound doesnt exist in space. or the fact that a giant space war is going on is a fictional universe. but if you read from other cultures some vampires are day walkers. people just skim the top of the layer for basic info like not liking garlic or crosses. but you have to understand that vampire myths are made up by people just like the dude who made the twilight books (or chick i forgot). or maybe im wrong. maybe vampires exist in this world. but i highly doubt their getting bent out of shape because of one movie about vampires with inaccuracies in it. which is included in a list of vampire movies hollywood has made. also vampire myths are based on people with a rare disease back in the day when there was no explanation for their behaviors. if you read about vampires they give you another explanation for what a vampire might be.

get it now?

Nope, because Star Wars isn't based on a myth. You can't change what is real out there.

While vampires are kids imagination, and she is manipulating the myth to attract the audience, thus fucking up their minds.

You obviously are ignoring the big influence this movie had. It will get stuck on this kids generation's head.

You ought to start a coalition to write a totally bada$$, mythologically correct vampire series to overtake the modern media market.

The reform begins with one person - I would root for you!

The other movies are doing fine. This one is ruining it and surprisingly this one has more influence on kids.

every generation has its myths, long ago they were vampires and werewolfs now its big foot, montauk monsters and chupacabras. the only influence the movie gave me was to go on the internet and learn more about vampires and buy books based on them just like many people who are truly interested in them would do.

It's a crap high school romance series of course it sucks. Meyer ruined the good vampire name. Before she came about, there were some respectable vampire stories. Now if you say something about vampires it..."OmG! Like Jacob/Edward is soooo hott!" *Facepalm*
