The vampires in Twilight can survive in the sun. Therefore, they are not ****ing vampires.

Buffy is good ... But what'd be really sweet would be setting Alexander Anderson loose on these Abercrombie and Fitch, tight-jean wearing, poncy English accent having nancy-boys.

This is not true vampires not being able to walk in sunlight is a very modern vampire idea. Read Dracula sometime, he walked around in sunlight. And for those of you who say vampires pre-dated Stoker's novel while this is true the modern form of vampires that *most* people would know of are in fact directly related to Stoker's novel. So while I do not mind anyone bashing Twilight I would rather you not insult vampires with un-truths on their lore.

It's true that the original Dracula did get about in the sun. All I can say to that is that he was the Lord and master of all vampires, being the oldest one in existence at the time. And even he had to be buried in the soil of his homeland every night.

These vampires from Twilight don't look as though they're bad-arse enough to be lords among vampires.

But yeah ... I have read Dracula, and it just slipped my mind that he could survive out and about.

Yes, and despite Drac's abilities as described by Stoker, the modern form of vampires that *most* people would know also die from sunlight. ;)

He could but would not for most time.

This sad excuses for Vampires have no real problems with the Sun.

Someone bring me Van Helsing (the movie), now that is a Vampire Slayer. :D

For me Van Helsing Dracula's is the best one i ever seen. Evil, cold, manipulative, and with STYLE. Not some teen in dippers.

Or Nosferatus, now that is a frightening Vampire.

Yes your right *most* people would think of vampires not being able to stand in sunlight without burning to death. However that is a very modern idea, think Buffy/Angel, or even a decade before that. What I was simply saying is that particular piece of lore is very new in the vampire world. And perhaps stephanie meyer (aka Twilight author) was actually using lore from an older source. However dispite all the problems with the Twilight series I personally have, vampires walking around in sunlight isnt one of them. Personally I think vampires shouldnt be the central part of a love story, considering they should want to rip out your throat, not kiss you.
