It ’s the same old story . Boy vampire match girl , girlfriend and boy have tumultuous affair , boy goes away , girl falls for boy loup-garou . The lamia - human - werewolf triangle has become almost cliché . When will these darn kids watch the term “ threesome ” ?
Now that the whole reality has seen theNew Moon laggard , tweens everywhere are hold their breath is anticipation of the film ’s November release . In the new pic , a incessantly petulant Bella becomes distraught when Edward leaves town , and starts run with a pack of werecubs , including buff and loom Jacob Black .
Does this sound a little intimate to anyone else ?
It should , since Stephanie Meyer ’s supernatural love triangle survey the same production line as Charlaine Harris’Southern Vampire Series , now advantageously known as HBO ’s True Blood . Sookie Stackhouse , in time of year one , falls for tall , sour and undead Bill , and when he disappears she is left to be console by the shaggy werecollie Sam . At least Sookie has a great power all her own , and Bon Temps vampires sure enough do not sparkle in the sunlight like the vegan tease in Twilight .
The Underworld serial publication , despite its other faults , at least give us a few twists on the lamia / human / werewolf trilateral . Kate Beckinsale ’s Selene hook up with a hybrid lamia - Lycan , thereby having her patty and eating it too . And the Lycan loss leader Lucian , as a well - oiled slave boy , had a ill-starred dark - eld romance with his vampire mistress in wage increase of The Lycans , the third installment of the steadily declining series .
True line of descent time of year two premieres tonight , and is steering away from what , thanks to New Moon , has become tween territory and rather is giving us a invigorated new passion story in the sultry southerly swampland . Boy falls for girl , son is a glowering Dwight Lyman Moody lamia , girl has supernatural ability and chirpy personality , and girl fall for terrifyingly light-haired spoiled - male child vampire . Joss Whedon must be proud that his influence has continued to feign vampire television .
There is a lot to look forward to with time of year two , especially the storyline exploring how Sam Merlotte became a shapeshifter ( a kinfolk of werebeings to which Jacob Black also technically belongs ) . In Harris ’s later novel , Sookie fall for yet another wolfboy … let ’s hope HBO gives us more puppy love in the time of year to keep abreast .
