Yeah.. you read it right. Someone DID compare 'draculas' from 'vampires'. I heard it with my own ears.. that Dracula is now used as plural, rather than as a noun. And 'draculas', as that ignorant person might say, is actually different from vampires.Yes, i know.
It was when the 'Twilight' phenomenon (or outbreak as you may call it) started spreading throughout the universe of female species that vampires are brought again into the so-called fad world of entertainment. It had every single girl/woman that fell into the category of : liking pretty/hot boy
s, loving love stories, loving chick flicks, loving the idea of forbidden love - went screaming for the actors' name or the character like going to a rock concert whenever the human beings appear on premiers - or even walking the streets. The girls may have read the best-selling book before or after the movie came out (hell, I only read the book -yes, i read the book- after they announced that they are making a film based on a vampire novel series. I wanted to know why everyone is so pumped about the saga), but either way, the reaction is the same, whether you are a true fan (which is reading the book before the movie came out) or just another fad follower.

She said "I definitely love vampires because they are such sexy beasts, as compared to draculas". Aahh yes, it is indeed very paiful to recap her words again, but it burns my heart everytime I hear someone claims that they know everything about vampires - JUST because they watched the movie saga.
I do not claim myself as a person who is expert about vampires, but I am a fan of this 'creature' since I was 13, which is more than 10 years ago (yes, don't have to guess how old I am now ha?). I did not join the 'fanclub' because of visual entertainment like movies or tv series for having cute guys acting as the heroic vampire such as Anne Rice's "Interview with the vampire", and "Buffy the vampire slayer". It was the first 'True Horror Stories' book that my dad bought from overseas that I was first introduced to Vlad the Impaler. It was this ruler that inspired Bram Stoker to write 'Dracula'. 
I should spare the rest of the details to myself, as more of 'you' out there would prefer your own 'twilight' version of vampires than the truth.

How much I wish that the fad ends with 'twilight' fever, but it grew stronger by the appearance of more vampire tv series such as True Blood and Vampire Diaries which both have drifted away from the true idea of what vampire is about. Again, I do not need to explain how much they differ from the vampire ideology, as I know you have watched the series as well. Thanks to the producing companies, took the opportunity of 'twilight' fever and manipulate it into 'vampire' fever which demands more vampire related shows! Even Ian Somerhalder, Mr. Damon Salvatore from Vampire Diaries agrees, "Of course I love Twilight! They gave me a job!!". Great! Now the fad outbreak will never end, and everyone claims even more that they are a true vampire fan!
But hell, it is still called as 'fad'.... so it will end soon once the teeny-boppers grow up or their favourite actors turns ugly or get married.
One can wish!

And guess what, I know I'm not the only one who thinks this way.
More proof of vampire exploitation even since way back when!

Need I say more?
WHO was that expert moron vampirefad toitetfangirl (read: "Twilight" = TOILET as is place where crap is dumped) who thinks she's the next Paris Hilton (or possibly a dumber blonde, except ugly version)?
ReplyDeleteIt reminds me of the time she (Paris Hilton) made the statement "I wonder how many orgasms there are on Mars." (Yes, you read it correct. And she said it with a superconfident straight face. No I don't think she was 'acting' --- heck she's a bad actor, so that convincing performance was definitely NOT acting).
But taking on a more serious tone, it just so BURNS and BLEEDS me to see how the media exploits the dumbfucks i.e. the majority of today's mentally DEvolving global population (again, Darwin's soul weeps in pain) by REmakes that turn original classic masterpieces and themes into overdone overthetop fads ... and the fact that it actually works on them! (HBO/Hollywood is making loads of money)
What's the world coming to...
