We’ve Got The 1 Reason To See Vampires Suck (So You Don’t Have To)

By ryant August 20, 2010 at 12:08pm · 18 comments

Vampires Suck, the Twilight spoof that actually makes the Lautner-Pattinson movie look good, features this “It’s Raining Men” scene, which is technically inaccurate, because they are werewolves.

    This seems like the type of garbage we should find offensive.

    They packed every negative gay stereotype they could into one scene. Would’ve been easier just to drop an F-bomb and wait for the audience to laugh.

    @Hilarious: I have to agree. I took my little sister last night; not paying attention to the title, I figured it was just another vampire flick. As soon I realized it was a comedy, I knew a moment like this was bound to happen. It always does. It’s this over the top flamboyance that’s treated as if it’s wrong or something to be taken as a joke.
    Sure, it’s a stereotype, but you know what? Stereotypes come from somewhere; there are guys that are biologically built in a more feminine manner that influences how they act and interact with others. It’s nature, albeit misunderstood, and it is what it is. It’s our domesticated minds-through stupid shit like this-that teaches young boys to laugh at ‘sissys’.

    It only lasted a few seconds, but it made me cringe, in some odd way. I’m not sure how to explain it’s offensiveness, if only to point out that women are always placed on a pedestal in terms of their bodies. Hooters, bras, titties, it’s everywhere in these movies. But the men are always ‘normal’ and usually nerdy, fat, irrelevant and somehow not expected to live up to any standard. They get to chill out and hang loose. Then when guys are shot and shown in a sexual manner, it’s this silly act like this that makes some audience members think, ‘guys should not be doing this.’ It lets the delusional American male feel comfortable with himself. Now if you put some NYC gogo boys in that scene who cared about what they were doing, guys would puff up and act defensive, ‘that’s gay’ they’ll say. Which is really just a cover up for their own inability to live up to a standard the way they expect women to.
    It was a “laugh at that little boys, cause guys who go near each other are stupid and silly” kind of message. It also features an almost kiss that I suppose is there to test the audiences reaction.

    But that’s why this movie is here; to make all the envious and insecure guys whose girlfriends swoon over Pat Whatshisface the chance to grab his crotch and feel good about himself.

    Sorry to rant but..

    The only thing that offends me is that these goddamn “HAHA POP CULTURE LOL SO RANDUM” movies keep getting made.

    I watched 20 seconds of this movie’s trailer and felt like punching a baby.

    It’s rare to get a decent spoof anymore. I think the last good one I can remember was SCREAM.

    The only part of this movie I found entertaining was when some bitch got smacked upside the head with a shovel, because that’s what I’d like to do to all these “Team JACOB! NO Team EDWIERD!” bitches. Of course, that moment was in the trailer, which means I wasted my life seeing this unfunny movie.

    Haven’t seen it, might catch it on DVD.

    As for offensive, uhm, did any of you see the marketing material for “Eclipse” and “New Moon”? I’m sure you did since all the gay blogs were absolutely *swooning* over all the shirtless hunks in cutoff denim shorts parading around the screen. I lost count of how many times it was considered “homoerotic”. Guess what, with such a blatantly sexual and “erotic” campaign, why is anyone surprised it got taken to the next level?

    If it’s a bad movie, fine. But get you panties out of a twist already. The gay blogs practically wrote this damn scene.

    It’s not any different than the humor in “Another Gay Movie,” let’s not worry too much.

    @Cam: Scary Movie and its sequels had some funny moments.

    I was much more offended that I had to sit through the first two Twilight movies

    @Devon: A baby? That’s a little misdirected. Punch the people that funded this piece of tripe.

    Awe…where did the good spoof-y movies go? The first Scary movie was fantastic, then the second while not nearly as good (imo) still had it’s moments. And the Austin Powers movies were flipping great spoofs of the James Bond movies.

    I wish these people would take the time and write genuinely funny movies instead of directly ripping off the movies that they are “spoofing”.

    Why do they keep making these movies? Oh yeah, because idiots keep watching them.

    Stereotypes exist because THEY’RE TRUE! Gays are expected to be treated with such kid-gloves on everything that gay culture has lost it’s ability to laugh at itself and only knows how to have a knee-jerk negative comment for everything that doesn’t desperately pander to them. Lighten up!

    August 21, 2010 at 3:08am
  • P.

    @ricky lee: I think the concern is “laughing at” vs “laughing with”. But to your point it seems the kids today are doing more of the former even if the latter is still in their guffaws. So this type of thing doesn’t trigger my PC rage like it used to. But I still don’t like it, e.g. @Ryan nailed it on how straight white boys in these movies don’t get stereotyped in the same fashion.

    “Get him girls!”? They don’t look like “girls” to me. Far from it.

    Where do Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer get the money to make this garbage? Every movie they’ve made has been shit and not even good as parody. They’re consistently trashed by critics and often make “Worst Ever” lists. And personally, I can’t help but cringe every time I see one, especially when they do the stupid fucking dance numbers.

    I’m not even going to watch the clip because I just know it would mean 56 seconds of my life gone forever.

    Scream, and Naked Gun. Now those were the times.
