Sundown: The Vampire in Retreat video

The second movie in the Stephanie Myers Twilight series Twilight: New Moon was released at midnight today to an alarming amounts of fans and groupies a like.  The movie looks to set all sorts of holiday records and already surpassed both The Dark Knight and Harry Potter in midnight sales, which means….cha-ching!

Only Angels Have Wings divx The box office isn’t the only place where the New Moon mania is.  Besides the inside of middle school lockers, Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and gang are being mentioned everywhere on Twitter.  And in the masses.

Twilight has been getting about 81,000 tweets per day on Twitter making it one of the most trended topics on the popular social network.  Insanity….yes.

I read and saw the first Twilight and really didn’t think either were that good, much less Backstreet Boy band crazy.  Granted I am not a middle school girl despite how people think I act at times but it’s crazy to see such alure for the teeny bopper vampire saga, especially when there is so much out there, and frankly so much better.

Maybe I am just not up for Twilight but I am a vampire fan.  I loved the Swedish Let the Right One In and am a huge fan of the HBO show True Blood.  Maybe I have matured to a high school girl’s status to some, who knows.  But either way the reality is that this is big and growing.  The movie may set some holiday records and will only make the hype for the remaining sequels grow even more.

Ok, I’ll admit it, I’m not at all excited to see this movie. One, I never read the books, and two, I liked this story better when it was called Harry Potter. Anyways, I know the rest of the world is absolutely in love with this story. Both kids and adults have already either seen the movie at midnight or have tickets to see it for sometime this weekend. Thus, it is my duty to report what some of the critics are saying.

Trainspotting buy

So before I do that, all I’m saying is that this movie has been receiving not-so-hot feedback. Rotten Tomatoes at this exact moment

, has it at a 30%. Of course this is subject to change, but 30% uhhhhh SUCKS. Sorry to dissapoint; not that it will matter though. This movie is bound to clock $100 million this weekend.

Roger Ebert says – “The characters in this movie should be arrested for loitering with intent to moan. Never have teenagers been in greater need of a jump-start. Granted some of them are more than 100 years old, but still: their charisma is by Madame Tussaud.” Click here for a full a review.

A Bunch of Amateurs full movie Richard Roeper

says - ”Despite his 107 years on the planet, Edward Cullen doesn’t seen to have absorbed much in the way of wisdom, maturity or ingenuity. I mean, here he is, repeating senior year in high school for something like the 90th time, and he’s STILL  a petulant, self-absorbed teenager, sitting in the back of the class and scoffing at yet another lesson about “Romeo and Juliet.” You’d think by now he would have figured out a way to pass himself off as a young-looking 21-year-old rock star—or hey, maybe he could put his supernatural skills to use by turning himself into a better golfer than Tiger Woods. Anything to break the monotony.” Click here for a full review.

Kenneth Turan of the LA Times says – “This is the last time you’ll ever see me,” Edward Cullen says to Bella Swan. As if…..”Edward is as good as his word and “New Moon” suffers as a result. Constrained by the plot of the novel, the film keeps the two lovers apart for quite a spell, robbing the project of the crazy-in-love energy that made “Twilight,” the first entry in the series, such a guilty pleasure.” Click here Dead Poets Society movie download for a full review.

There are 3 opinions. All of which are not so good. 

Nick will be seeing it this weekend and will post his review as soon as he does.

Is it me, or is there a new vampire movie/TV show coming out 3-4 times a year?  It came swiftly and abruptly, but Hollywood is going through what we would call a vampire craze. The blood sucking, sex crazed, violent seeking night dwellers have pretty much taken over.  Did somebody just wake up and say “let’s bring back vampires.” Or perhaps it went something like this, “I can’t make a successful money making movie unless it has vampires.”

Interestingly, the rest of us can’t seem to get enough.  In fact, foreign film industries are trying the vampire theme out as well.   I’m trying to make sense of it, but I’m having trouble.  Why is everyone into vampires these days? There has been various forms of vampire legend adaption; everything from romance to violence. We have vampire stories for kids, and we have more violent and sexual adaptions for adults. Lets just take a peak of vampire themed movies/tv in pop culture these days.

True Blood – the HBO series has taken over the Sunday night spot as it entered its second season. To be honest, I haven’t jumped on the band wagon but that’s not to say that the rest of the world has. People go rogue from 9-10 on Sunday nights because of “True Blood.”  Sure, Anna Paquin is good looking but I thought Michael Strahan copyrighted the front tooth gap.

Underworld Trilogy – Kate Beckinsale starred in the original in 2003 and returned for the sequel in 2006.  In 2009, the final Underworld came out, and although it was weaker than the first 2, unlike Godfather 3, this third installment was actually pretty good.  This vampire saga is more like a comic book than anything loaded with pretty cool action scenes.  The premise is based off the battle between vampires and werewolves.  Big box office success (and DVD success)

Twilight Series Coons! Night of the Bandits of the Night video – I do not know much about, but this Vampire saga has completely dominated the teen market. I would dare not diss it, as I do not want to become a marked man by 14-16 year old girls.  The success of the first movie catapulted the speedy production of the second installment, “New Moon,” who’s trailer can be seen here. It hit Comic Con also, as Nick in his guest post, The Alibi buy mentioned previously.

Now for a runoff… “Let the Right One In” came out earlier this year, 3 “Blade” movies were made, a ton of money was put into “Van Helsing,” random Dracula movies come out once a year, and a new version of Buffy The Vampire Slayer is in pre-production.

Even more interestingly, vampires have really sunk their teeth into Japan. “Blood: The Last Vampire” is in theaters now and came from Japanese filmmakers. The story is about a vampire named Saya, who is part of covert government agency that hunts and destroys demons in a post-WWII Japan. Ummm, sounds like Blade + a twist of government huh.

Finally, Korean director Chan-Wook Park, creator of 2003 smash hit Oldboy, will have his new vampire movie “Thirst” get released to theaters later this year. Additionally, this movie was all over Comic Con as well.  Hollywood Insider, Ron Ashley, tells the Banter that he caught a screening of “Thirst” and the movie is pretty good.   On a side note, Oldboy was such a success that Steven Spielberg is currently shooting the US remake starring none other than Will Smith.

I need someone to explain to me this craze. I think vampires are pretty cool and do enjoy their movies, but it’s just like all of a sudden everything is vampire related. If you want to make a money making movie, do a vampire movie.  It’s sort of sad, but true.  Dear Banterers, please advise.

buy Portal Anyways, keep bantering.
