When I tell people that I'm tired of all the vampire shit, there seems to be a sense that, because Twilight's popularity has supposedly been the cause of all the recent vampire stuff, I am complaining about Twilight.

I'm not, though. I don't mind Twilight and its sequels.

Dunno [kinda OFF TOPIC] I really don't see the point in complaining about a "trend" (or wathever this may be), just enjoy the things you like that come out of it, and don't give a shit about the useless ones.
Luckily series/films etc are (usually) not copycats of each other, coz of different "targets" etc.

example: covers of a "popular" magazine

twilight
 



true blood
 


I think they are "perceived" in different ways, not "it's all the same vampires stuff".

There are GOD KNOWS how many tv series/movies with cops and criminals.
I watch the ones I like or find interesting and I don't watch the ones I don't consider interesting/likable, but I don't hear much people complaining about "all this people-with-guns shit".
This is not a post "against" pbradly (also because I'm not 100% sure about the meaning of his post), just a generic opinion. Lots of people say "enough with fangs, jeez", like there's nothing else going on beside vampires stuff..mboh!

What I mean is that popular media has become so self-borrowing that any complaint I make about how saturated it has become by one trope seems to be taken instantly as an indictment against the 'original' trope when I'm more bothered by the culture.

Caveat lector:

1. This comes after watching American television on Korea after a long time of not watching anything.

2. This also comes after seeing what seemed like a low-budget show that combined vampires with crime drama.

3. I recognize this belongs more in the 'First World Problems' thread.

Season 3 finale wasn't that great. Hope Russell breaks outta that half assed prison by next season.

The show was on a definite roll up untill Russell ripped that hack's spine out on the news. Then there were just too many subplots not tied up on and no more "what the fuck!?!?!" moments.
