Re: Your ideal werewolf

Sugarpoultry, I have a question for you regarding your werewolves. But I'm rather hesitant to ask it because, A.)It's not exactly on topic for the thread, and B.)I don't wanna get in trouble.

Re: Are we ruining werewolves?

Berserker.....I think you just nailed it. Plus, I don't believe that it HAS to be an "either/or" thing with werewolves. I know noone's actually come out & said flat out "werewolves can ONLY be portrayed as evil monsters, or they can ONLY be portrayed as noble heroic furry superher...

Re: Are we ruining werewolves?

Point taken Berserker. I happened to find out about werewolves from movies & such at a rather young age and it wasn't until LATER that I discovered "Oh, wow....this wasn't just a monster that was made up for movies." And so I tend to have a default response of latching werewolves into ...

Re: Are we ruining werewolves?

After some serious (ok...not THAT serious) pondering, I have to stick with my original assertion that we are NOT ruining werewolves. "Why?" you may ask....well, uhhhh, crap, now I have to do actual thinking. First off, the "old school" style of a monstrous and out of control were...

Re: Should a werewolf be able to scale walls?

Should a werewolf be able to scale walls? Hmmmmm.... I suppose it depends on what's needed for the movie/story in question. If you need them to be able to, then...yes. If not, then....probably not.

Re: Doctors

If this topic already exists, please delete this. Assuming there was no doctor that was a werewolf or knew about werewolves, how would a werewolf receive medical treatment? Would there be anything that could identify them as such, like a blood test or some other abnomaly? Or perhaps when under the ...

I really don't think it detracts or takes away from werewolves if there are other monsters around. Of course, that could just be because I'm a big White Wolf fan. Personally, I think it'd be pretty funny in a movie for a werewolf character to be faced with a vampire and have a reaction of, "Wai...

Yes, I believe iconoclasm is at work here, but in a positive way. Has the vampire legend been "ruined" by Buffy, Interview With A Vampire , and Blade ? Perhaps, in that vampires have become mundane, their conventions explained away by science, their presence ubiquitous, their mystery gone...

Ruining werewolves? At first, i was attracted by the power they had, but, after seeing werewolves in a more softer tone, {Goldenwolf's artwork, for example} i found i liked the beauty of the creature far more than i liked the idea of a monster. The idea that all werewolves would be cast out, would ...

From what I could make out in reading the book, it's not having someone see a werewolf changing that gets them "stuck". It could be, but it seemed more like the werewolf got stuck between forms out of fear/panic or just sheer physical exhaustion. Plus the point is made that Non-Pack werewo...

Not a bad flick, in my opinion. I didn't really care for the book, since I hate "scientific" explanations for things like vampires, but the movie did a good job. As for the "religious overtones" in the movie...I sure didn't see any. There was one character that doesn't even show ...

Hmmm.... Well, I'm not sure if these would affect wolves (and thus, presumeably, werewolves), but they do affect dogs of the domestic variety so who knows? Would eating certain foods cause a problem?

Well, if I still lived close to the ocean, I guess a wereshark would be cool. But since I live in the desert now, that might not work. So...going on the assumption that since werewolves are off-limits, that also means other canines are as well (coyotes, foxes, hyenas), and in THAT case, I'd probably...

Well, I just saw it last night & I gotta say, I really enjoyed it. Definately a very bloody movie. As for there being too many Vampire movies (as opposed, I would imagine, to Werewolf movies), I'd say thats just because, I assume, Vampire flicks would be cheaper. Just take a regular actor, "...
