Buffy Vs. Twilight – A Slayer, A Swan, And A Vampire

Whether you are Team Edward or Team Jacob, Team Angel or Team Spike there is one thing that all of these fans have in common and that is passion, passion for the characters and stories that make up the two most popular contributions to the pop culture of vampires in the last 20 years. With that passion, as is often the case, comes debate and controversy.

In 2008, the film adaptation of Stephanie Meyer’s book Twilight was released catapulting the series of books written by Stephanie Meyer off the charts. The Twilight craze had begun and fans all over the country devoured as much of the books, films, soundtracks and merchandise as possible.  The series itself is four books, Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse, and Breaking Dawn.

There was another group of fans, a slightly older fan-base, that reacted with annoyance at the fans of the new craze claiming that this was nothing new, the storylines now famous bore a striking resemblance to the vampire culture that they had known and loved for 10-plus years, Buffy The Vampire Slayer. Buffy The Vampire Slayer, the TV series written by Joss Whedon, ran for seven seasons from 1997 through 2003. Gradually, the Buffy community began to grow ever more irritated at the attention being received by the Twilight series and the Twilight fans became equally as irritated claiming that the Twilight series was both different and superior to the Buffy series.

Twilight

While the Twilight craze was initiated by the release of the films, there was a large fan-base that was already in place; the books themselves had already generated a large following of devoted fans. I should warn the reader that I don’t consider someone a Twilight fan if they haven’t read the books, while the films are great; I am always biased towards the book in nearly every case. Whenever a book is adapted for film there is always so much material that is left out. The books chronicle the story of Bella Swan and her arrival in the town of Forks. She meets a young man named Edward who has a secret. The two of them fall in love and have to deal with the consequences related to friends, family, society and Edward’s secret.

Buffy The Vampire Slayer

The Buffy The Vampire Slayer series chronicles the story of Buffy Summers, a girl with a secret, and her arrival in the town of Sunnydale. She meets a young man named Angel who has a secret. The two of them fall in love and have to deal with the consequences related to friends, destiny, fate and their respective secrets.

Stephanie Meyer maintains that she had never seen Buffy The Vampire Slayer prior to writing her series. The creation of the Twilight world began when she had a dream about the two main characters and a dialogue that they have, which sparked the novels, the world and pop culture. While there is no reason to disbelieve Stephanie Meyer, there are some significant similarities between the two series.

** Warning: The remainder of this article will cover content from both series that would be considered a spoiler if you have not read all of the Twilight Series or seen the entire Buffy The Vampire Slayer series.**

Buffy Summers and Bella Swan, both independent strong young women. Each of them are deposited into a new town and left to climb the mountain of integrating into a new school, making new friends and adjusting to life with a single parent.

• Buffy falls in love with a vampire named Angel, Bella falls in love with a

Vampire named Edward.

• The Buffy series had a werewolf named Oz who was part of the main cast of characters. Jacob is the werewolf in the Twilight Series.
• Both of the female leads have a best friend (female) with supernatural powers.
• Both series have a supernatural governing body, which sets rules for the worlds that they live in and disapproves of the relationship between vampire and human.
• In each series there is a male vampire and his female companion who come to town to stir up trouble.
• The topic of forbidden love, betrayal, and heartbreak are prevalent in both.
• The best-guy friend of the female lead is a victim of unrequited love.

The list of similarities goes on for quite a while longer, however, the point has been made.

In spite of all of the similarities, there are many ways in which the two storylines deviate.

• Buffy has supernatural powers from the introduction of her character and struggles with a dual identity through the entire series. Her life is a constant struggle between fate, destiny and free will. Bella does not come into full realization of her supernatural abilities until near the end of the series. While her story does not deal with such ominous ideas like fate and destiny, hers is more of a story of love, romance and family.
• Buffy is never able to make her relationship with Angel work and while he will always be the love of her life, their relationship will never be fully realized. Bella and Edward at the end of the series find them selves in love, happy, with a daughter and an eternity laid out before them.
• Buffy on a nearly weekly basis finds herself in the midst of a battle in which the fate of the world rests in the balance. Bella may feel often times that the world is ending but in reality the scope of her actions does not extend too far outside of Forks.
• Buffy is a hero, with that comes struggle, resolve, failure and redemption. Bella is a teenager, relatable, fallible, and her character is developed intensely throughout the series.

In my mind, the verdict is simple, Twilight is not a remake, nor did Buffy The Vampire Slayer largely inspire it. While there may be some similarities in the details of the characters and plot elements that can easily be explained by the genre in which the stories where based. When you write stories about vampires in modern day times, when your lead is a teenage female, it should be expected that some of the same plot devices will be present in both. When analyzing the rites of passage and the inner workings of love in youth it is no wonder that the stories unfold in similar ways after all Buffy and Bella are both human.

The overarching storyline of Buffy The Vampire Slayer is that of a young woman who was destined by fate to be a hero. She struggles with the dual identity of being a normal girl who wants to fall in love and the Slayer who carries the responsibility of protecting the world from unimaginable evil. The Twilight series is a character study of a young teenager caught up in a star-crossed love affair. However, discounting either story because of its similarity to previous works sets a scary precedent for countless great works of fiction. Over and over again we see stories with storylines that closely mirror and are inspired by other works. Some of them have come to be milestones of popular culture. The Harry Potter series, the Inheritance series and even the Star Wars series are all rooted in literature that predates when it was written. It doesn’t negate the value or the entertainment inherent in those works. We are all inspired daily by things that we see, read, and hear. Our lives are the sum of our experiences and as writers take experiences and use them to inspire their work it is still valuable, still entertaining and still honest.

Why must there be a choice? Why must you be on Team Buffy or Team Twilight? I for one am a huge fan of both series. I think they are fantastic stories full of elaborate characters, and deal with issues that are far reaching beyond the superficial layer of entertainment, that should be what you take away from either series. That is what has generated fans on both sides that share one thing in common, passion.

Vampires With Dreaming Kids

90210 Were Not In Kansas Anymore And Wide Awake Dreaming Watch

Do you refer what it was same maturation up in the nineties? People relieve carried around Discmans and pagers. Pokemon became a hit and Pikachu gave group seizures. The internet had fitting kicked off, shortly to beautify the experience fanlike phenomenon. Fill would do the Macarena everyplace and the Spicery Girls were the next big artefact. Television didn’t modify exist. Nor did anyone change muse luxuriously definition vs parallel.

It seems like eons ago, doesn’t it? But, in all actuality, the decennium weren’t so abundant ago. Do you advert what shows you were watching? Position then, shows actually had scripts and actors kinda than every day citizens starring in mechanism of fable. There was none of this realism activity in reach. Here’s a minuscule stumble feather retentiveness lane: a leaning of the decennium leading TV hits. So, if you’re idea nostalgic, fair displace on the satellite TV and interpret for reruns.

Seinfeld
Who can lose the appear about nil? Jerry Seinfeld and his band of three-Elaine, George and of education, Kramer, are staples of 90′s comedy. In fact, more of the guide’s aliment is solace material today. The New York based comedy ventilated for octet geezerhood (1990-1998). In that second, it became a vast hit. Beyond brobdingnagian, flush. We watched and hung on to their every morpheme as they complained some everything from toes for thumbs to grampus BO. We were watching when George eventually got a concrete job with a sports aggroup and Elaine created the urban island; we stayed tuned when Jerry got ringed and divorced, and when Kramer, compartment, did something Kramerish.

Buffy the Vampire Human
Buffy was a fixture teenage woman who happened to individual a inheritance for slaying. Vampires that is. This evince became a faith hit in the latterly 90′s. It was a pretence nigh teen anxieties integrated with monsters lawful out of region. The programme was rife with pop social references. Many of the episodes were metaphors for growing up, and this appealed to fans. Too that, there’s lots of spread, with vampires and remaining demons deed their asses kicked by the formidable individual section, Buffy Sommers.

Beverly Hills 90210
This present was fundamentally a nightly max opera revolving around the lives of spoilt privileged kids extant in Beverly Hills. Guess the OC, but without so some smoothen. 90210 was attractive. No entity how much you didn’t requisite to catch, you couldn’t refrain yourself. Everyone likes to rite moneyed group having problems, especially if they are the unvarying problems everyone else has.

X Files
Here’s other feigning that dealt with the preternatural. The X Files was cagey. It was hip. It had monsters and aliens. The two leads, Mulder and Scully were constantly arguing active the cosmos of aliens, and yet there was never a tinge of romance. We want to judge.

Friends
A gather of friends of varying system income hang out in a New Dynasty brownness workplace. They treat their jazz lives, their financial woes, and they hap in know. Many get joined, to apiece separate no fewer, spell others tally their hearts unsound. They e’er can quit aft on a gaseous cappuccino, still. Yes, we all watched Friends. It was the happening to do. Who can block Monica, Phoebe, Joey, Writer, Modiste, and Rachel?

Remember, if you’re somesthesia a lowercase unhappy for the major 90′s, simply engage finished your follower tv channels-there are always reruns. E’er.

Vampires Weekend Lyrics

Anticipated Indie Rock Albums for Early 2010

Get off your bar stool and prepare yourself for these hot new indie rock albums to be released in early 2010. You can bet your poker chips these albums will be some of the most talked about records of the year so hear about them here first!

Hot Chip – One Life Stand

There are lots of bands that have incorporated the style and glossy production sound of top 40 hip-hop and pop into their music, but none are able to do it with as much class as the indie rock band Hot Chip. They have been crafting some of the catchiest dance-floor anthems of the past decade with their great music and clever, often tongue-in-cheek lyrics. They burst onto the scene largely with the tracks “Over and Over” and “And I Was a Boy from School” from their 2006 release, “The Warning.” Their new album, “One Life Stand” is said to be more somber than their previous releases, so it will be interesting to see where the band goes from here on out.

Vampire Weekend – Contra

These preppy art school kids have divided music fans into love it or hate it camps, with their detractors criticizing their usurping of African rhythms and Paul Simon “Graceland” influences in their music. It’s hard to come down on Vampire Weekend for stealing from black musicians when throughout musical history that is all that white people have done. Their new record is full of even more of that catchy, literate pop music that they are known for, with lyrics that sound straight out of a “Gossip Girl” novella.

The Besnard Lakes – Are the Roaring Night

This epic indie rock band is hard to pin down; their vocalist sounds like your typical whiney indie rock singer but their sound really shoots for the stars, with lengthy, often seven minute long songs that slowly burn their way into your skull. Their albums seem to be loosely conceptual, with their breakthrough “Are the Dark Horse” being followed by “Are the Roaring Night,” with an effectively appropriate image of a roaring night fire on the album cover. I don’t know what these guys are up to but it sounds like it is worth following.

I need some new bands!?

So I need to find some new bands and artists to listen to. I like alternative rock music and some folk bluesy music with awesome vocals and guitar. I’m not into any of that techno stuff or anything too poppy and I hate it when the instruments overpower the lyrics. Here’s some of the things I listen to

dude the smiths was like the best one you said but if you like sublime you have to like SKA so here are some ska bands
reel big fish
mighty mighty boss-tones
los skarnales
los skarnales is in spanish but it is hard not to like them.

The Myth of Vampire Movies

Lets talk vampire movies.  Not quite horror and not quite drama. Some weird mix of the two.  And people can’t get enough of vampires!  They’re on every list, on all sort of merchandise, they’re everywhere you turn!  It’s out of control!

Vampire movies are always popular because they’re always certain.  You know what you’re going to get before you even pick stand in line to buy tickets.  A hot lust connection with one of the couple is guaranteed to be a vampire.  The vampire tries to protect the more “delicate†of the pair from certain doom, despite the non-vampires’ insistence that they are NOT that fragile.  Throw in lots of death metal, black leather and very, VERY hot scenes of vampire lust.  The actors are always hot and the more they try to resist each other the hotter the other gets until all the audience members are panting.  Does the vamp bite in this movie?  Depends on if they get hurt.  Edward NEVER bites Bella but Selene definitely sinks her teeth into Michael.  Yea, yea, life or death…but Edward so doesn’t want Bella to be a vampire!

Of course Twilight isn’t your usual vampire movie.  Twilight is reinventing the image of vampires everywhere.  Gone are the dark denizens of the night with their fangs and fear of burning in the sun.  Not for the Cullens!  The Cullens bring us emo vegetarians who glitter in the sun and the best way to gauge the depth of your danger is by the color of their eyes.  Edward is THE tortured artist.  Notice all his journals?  All the music?  And Bella’s lullaby?  Seriously?  Totally thought THAT drama ended in the 8th grade!  But it’s still a date movie.  You’re still going to get lots of lust, lots of pretty people and a vampire who knows he should stay away from the human but can’t.

Vampire movies have an easy formula.  If you follow the formula above, you get Twilight, Underworld, The Vampire Diaries, True Blood…..it’s the formula of the day!
