I would like to begin this with: On behalf of Canada, I apologize for Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer existing. The two are just godawful and if they died in a hole it really wouldn't be a huge loss for humanity and would probably be a huge bonus to the creative community at large. Their "humour" is like a drunk frat boy mixed with that of an unintelligent 10 year old and boiled down to the lowest common denominator. Everything they write is not creative, witty, clever or original and rather relies on referencing stupid pop culture items in order to gain some laughter, "oh haha, Lady Gaga is weird! OH man clever!" I really hope the Buffy joke(s) will be good. I don't want a "Ops, I'm a blonde cheerleading slayer, look at me, oh I broke my nail" kind of joke. That is definitely what it will be. Going beyond this joke would require at least an ounce of talent; something they don't have. I IMPLORE EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU TO NOT SEE THIS MOVIE. PLEASE END THE ATROCITY OF THEM EXISTING AND MAKING MONEY BY BOYCOTTING THEIR AWFUL "PARODIES." PLEASE! I look toward a future where parody movies can move back to being genuinely clever rather than cashing in on the latest pop-culture trend. Please. People. Please. A world minus Friedberg and Seltzer is a better world for all.

Has anyone noticed how Rotten Tomatoes have put it a dig at Friedberg/Seltzer with their critical consensus of Vampires Suck?
"Witlessly broad and utterly devoid of laughs, Vampires Suck represents a slight step forward for the Friedberg-Seltzer team."
Pretty funny. This is the first time I've seen them go editorial with their consensus.

I've seen it. Not as good as I hoped, but not as bad as I feared. It's not as good as Scary Movie 1&2 and Meet The Spartans, but it's good. The Buffy part was short, but okay. Not the greatest joke. Vampire sucks does not suck I'm not saying it will win a award, I'm just saying I'd rather watch this than many movies that have actually won awards. I don't get the "the movie shouldn't exist" talk. If you don't like these kinds of movies, don't watch them. Let me have my laughs.

^^i agree! they are funny! (not the best kind of funny but) i think i might either see it this weekend or wait until it comes to DVD. My sister already saw it with her friends and spoiled the Buffy scene.

Probably I won't see it.
I'm not a big fan of spoofs or parody movies, for one thing. And maybe I've seen too many of the trailers, but the jokes seem stale already.
I just think I'm a girl who can't sit through another stupid vampire movie at this point.

My friends and I were in the mood to see a bad movie and we got what we wanted. It did however lead to an awesome discussion afterwards on how to properly make fun of twilight. My favorite scene was the Buffy part. I just wished that it would have included more vampires in it, from places other than twilight. I think if they had spoofed more movies it would have been funnier. This is coming from someone who actually liked scary movie 1-4. It's not the least funny movie on the planet, but it was really lacking in laughs. However, I did not think that it was a night poorly spent.

So I gave in and saw this movie for a chuckle and because I have a little crush on Matt Lanter. There were a couple of chuckles here and there but besides that it wasn't that great or bad. Really the only thing that bother me is that they didn't make more references to other classic or newer vampire movies or shows. I liked the minor Buffy and Vampire Diaries bit, but how on earth could they have not mention Blade or Dracula or something besides Jersey Shore.
Edit - Oh yeah I forgot that I may have feel asleep midway through the movie for about 5 to 10 minutes.

Curiosity has gotten the better of me. No way am I seeing this, but what's the Buffy joke?

If I remember correctly, Becca/Bella is aiming her maze at a vampire, but mistakenly sprays Buffy in the eyes, who calls her a bitca and says she was going to save her (Buffy had a stake high in the air, ready to strike) but now she won't. Then she walks away.

I can't wait to see this movie. Anyone else notice Mr Russo from Wizard's of waverly Place saying "You're the Black Eyed Peas?" yup! and did you also notice that Chelsea from That's So Raven was in it too?! ^ And that's the best they can come up with for the best Slayer in the world? i agree.

This film does look kind of funny. I'm not going to be impressed with the making fun of Buffy. But they weren't making fun of That's So Raven; the actress who played Chelsea was in it, though. If that was what you meant, then ignore my comment, lol.
The mother in the film having an affair with Tiger Woods is a great joke! And replacing the name 'Cullen' with 'Sullen' is pretty hilarious, too. When Edward takes the student and stops the van with him, I couldn't stop laughing; but I did find it kind of mean to make that student be Chinese. And Becca's realization that Edward is a Jonas Brother almost made me die; I strongly dislike the Jonas Brothers and Twilight (especially Edward/Robert!), so that pretty much made me very happy! The whole Jasper scene is very easily one of my favorites; I love hamburgers, and his face was just priceless. The whole fan-girl war scene was easily one of the best scenes in the movie. The Alice in Wonderland scene was very hilarious! And making fun of Jersey Shore was incredibly funny because I hate that show.
I must point out that Mr. Russo and Chelsea weren't in the movie. The actor and actress was.

Yes, the Chinese dude who got slammed into the truck was also Chinese in the Twilight Saga. They kind of look the same, also.

So what's the meanness? Vampires suck was just being accurate.

That's one part I found myself laughing at. I didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

I'm so excited to see this I'm going tomorrow Now, I know I'm probably a minority on this forum, but I actually like the Twilight Saga. But I enjoy spoof movies, even of things that I like.
