who is the dude in the back?
Really? It's Blade the half vampire vampire slayer.
That would be the vampire hunter/killer, "Blade".
You can find out more about the movie, "Blade" by checking it out on YouTube.
(Note: The movie, "Blade" is Rated "R" for language & vampire gore/violence. It is not for children.)

Well, the movie(s) did come out in 200-2002, so that's fare.

I actually have an argument against all the Twilight hate. Just follow my logic and give this theory a chance.
At first I thought the same as the rest of you, I despised the very idea of a teen vamp love story. I filed Twilight under the epic fail category.
Then I realised something very important. Generally speaking, women LOVE Twilight. Women of all ages are enthralled by the romantic storyline. The four books were written by a woman and so give an insight into the mind of our better halves.
So after much urging from my wife, I gave in and actually read the books and watched the movies. They aren't Star Wars but they're not so bad either.
Here's my point. Guys love women and women love Twilight, so what sense does it make to hate the series so much when there are so many benefits to be gained from learning more about our beautiful counterparts.
Young guys, PLEASE LISTEN UP! Instead of hating the series and making fun of it, try to learn about it a little and then impress your female friends with your knowledge. My wife and I have enjoyed a closer relationship since I've learned about Twilight, so trust me on this one.

I saw the title of this thread and suddenly I didn't feel so alone anymore
There are worse movies, but not many that have exploded in your face like this
The cult following (tween - 20 something) is absolutely freaky ridiculous. And SW Fans get
a bad rap :facepalm
I'm sick as hell of vampire this, vampire that anyway. What the hell is the fixation ?
How many vamp movies have been made in the last 20 years? Too many. This is as bad
as the fixation with westerns - from talking motion pictures to, oh about the mid 80's
Time to move onto something else.
Of course, with news of the upcoming "Lone Ranger" - we might find cinema shifting back
to that, and I don't know what's worse
Enuf !

Has everyone forgotten about Anne Rice's Vampire series?
I'm not into horror movies/ books... but Rice's books were great. I think they were edgy and Lestat is a great hero/ villain!

If they weren't vampires and werewolves they would be labeled creepy emo stalker boys... worst vampire (and I use the term loosely ) series ever....
OK...said it once (or a butt-load of times) and I'll say it again:
Vampire should only sparkle when exposed to direct sunlight...and then only for a second or two just before they burst into flames and explode.
Twilight= Underworld for wussies
But, I did hear a great tid-bit about Twilight that I had not heard before and makes it all make a little sense. It seems the stories were originally written to have the main characters be "Fey"...faries...not vampires. But the publisher figured no one would buy books about a bunch of emo faries, so talked the author into changing them to vampires. At least the sparkle thing seems more "in character" with faries. No idea if this is accurate or not, but it does make a lot more sense than sparkly, daylight loving, emo vampires.
And it lets me call Edward a farie...that makes me smile

The books are worse than the movies ... Edward is kind of a mentally abusive arse. However, I find it hilarious that ANYONE who dresses up in plastic would make fun of someone elses passions regardless of how 'weird' they are. ESPECIALLY if you're making a custom mandolorian with its own custom story line that you've made up because of your passion for the mandolorian lifestyle. No different than people who like the vampire one, even wussy sparkly ones.
Good point Wolfie
There are worse stories about vampires who actually do burst into flames in the sun and get staked through the heart... anyone seen Vampire Diaries? It is like Bram Stoker's Dawson Creek... and my wife, who read both Twilight and The Vampire Diaries, said that at least Twilight keeps to the book WAY more than Vampire Diaries
