It would have made sense when people started to talk about vampires while my first post talked only about the werewolves myth.

After you discussed what? I still see no reason why to not hold that statement.

Vampires in this movie aren't vampires at all. New creatures, yeah, but I see nothing related to vampires.

Odin's argument states that 'Almost everything written in the last 200 years is based on a short story "The Vampyre", written by John Polidori in 1918.'

The European myth originated way before that FYI. And it wasn't about books, they really believed in it... reported sightings and various stuff like that.

I'm not saying I believe in that, but that is a real myth, not something you decide to write someday, name it 'Vampire', when it has nothing related to them.

You don;t understand. Myths are sometimes bended. For example, the mythology of the greek gods and goddesses were altered by the romans.

I never have met anyone who knows the Roman version if you ask me. They actually borrowed from them but they did not name it 'Greek Mythology', they named it 'Roman Mythology'.

100% disposable income. Most young teens don't have jobs or dependants or debt yet and the money tends to come from the parents. It's a huge business.

.. and it's a stupid thread anyway.

Gotta love people who think they always have won. And then tell me I don't admit being wrong.

At least I'm not claiming I win here, but there is no real reason for me to admit I'm wrong.

All you've said is how my idea of a vampire is a changed version of the 19th century which I made a post above, it was a clear troll. The European version is way before books started changing the myth.

I tend to think that anyone who enjoys Twilight is secretly a 14 year old girl in disguise... or a really fat girl (forgot her name, but I'm referring to that whale of a girl on YouTube who went batshit over the first Twilight movie and kept drooling over Edward).

Not true, I know a lot of girls IRL, who are quite attractive and are obsessed at this movie.
