+465 Saying that Twilight is a vampire film because it has vampires in it is like saying Lord of the Rings is like Rudolph because it has elves in it, amirite?

but it is a vampire film.... one of the major parts to the twilight series is vampire attacks and having bella wan to turn into a vampire...

But another "major" part is the derpy!war between the "vampires" and the "werewolves"/shapeshifters, so technically it'd be a shapeshifter movie, too, by that standard.

but the werewolfs arent even introduced until the second movie. in the first that trio of vampires are still attacking people and trying to get Bella. the entire second half of the movie is about the Cullens trying to protect Bella frm the vampires.

If you're going to argue about a book with "werewolfs" in it, at least pluralize werewolves correctly. And yes, the book has vampires involved, but that doesn't make it a vampire book. The genre is typically characterized by the main plot or theme, which in this case is Edward and Bella's "romance," or if you'd care to see it from an Anti's perspective, is Edward's "godliness". That being said, the genre is either a romance or some type of irritating and thankfully untapped genre, hopeless infatuation.

They aren't werewolves. It was clarified in the last book that they are just shape-shifters.

By definition of a vampire, there are actually no vampires in the film.

it's not a vampire film, because none of them are real vampires. they're fairies.

Not even fairies. They're whiney little pixie bitches.

Or worse, an insult to fairies.

What I meant was that vampire films used to action movies like blade ect. This movie is more of a drama and has added a little action but should not be compared to older vampire films

I just didn't agree with what they were saying, comparing Lord Of The Rings & Rudolph with the elves. :)

The elves in Lord of the Rings and the santa's elves are way different.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

the vampires in twilight and the vampires in classic vampire tales are way different in case you didn't notice that is the point of this post
