THE PACK Message Boards

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.

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 superheroes", but....that ...

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 movies first ...

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 werewolf just simply is ...

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.

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 ...

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, "Wait ...

Was this the sketch you saw? If so, no, it won't, because that was yet another piece of misleading info leaked during the development. Someone I know that has seen the movie confirmed that it looks nothing like that.

I kinda wish that WAS how it looked in the movie. When I saw that sketch, I ...

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. Fear of ...

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 werewolves (like ...

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 up until about 3/4 ...

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? Some things that're totally cool for humans are not good for dogs (chocolate, caffeine, alcohol ...

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 ...

Hey....I just noticed someting when I was looking at that list I put up earlier: Suffocation, Immolation, Malevolent Creation, Devastation....WOW, there were a lot of "ation" bands back in the early '90's. hehehehe

Well, since it's late and I'm bored....I'll jump in here. Some of my favorite bands (INPO):

Metallica (up through the "Black" album)
Anthrax (through "Persistence of Time")
Slayer (through "Seasons in the Abyss)
Death
Nile
Dethklok (yeah yeah...I know they're a cartoon. I don't care ...

I'm feeling too lazy to look through all of the pages, so I don't know if this has been mentioned before or not. Has anyone already mentioned the scene where one person finally says something like "It looked like it was a werewolf", and someone else in the group then HAS to say something along the ...

[quote="wolf4life"]where did these like vampires come from? They just kind of get off the vampire bus, get lost, and wined up in a town where it just happens to be the first day of night.[quote]

Well, from what I gathered in the movie and from the comics, the vampires (or at least one of them) knew ...

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, "pale ...

Just curious, how old/big ARE those bears? I only ask because the pics make them look a tad on the young side. Not that age makes a difference to you if one of them happens to come charging your way, I'm just wondering how old or big they are. Plus....I'm a pretty big fan of bears (not exactly THOSE ...

Was Milla Jovovitch using kukhri knives in the trailer?

I'd say "yes". Don't hold me to that though, cuz my knowledge of knives is......limited. But they sure looked like 'em to me. As far as the movie goes, I really liked it. Definately one of the best horror/action/post-apocalyptic/zombie ...

I thought it was St. Elsewhere that had the whole series take place in the mind of an autistic child playing with a snow globe. I do remember that Dallas had an entire season end up being a dream though.

Well, I've heard the Iron Maiden song that used some lines from that show. Anyway, on to the stuff I watched when I was a kid:

The Incredible Hulk
Wonder Woman
Knight Rider
Airwolf
Transformers
G.I. Joe
Thundercats
Dungeons & Dragons
Street Hawk
Automan
Phoenix
Werewolf (DUH!!!!)
Land ...

Yeah....gotta agree there. I really wanted to like this movie, it had potential, and it wound up being essentially a Sci-Fi channel Made-For-TV movie that happened to be on the big screen.

Vamps are nowhere near as cool as werewolves, but I still like watching the ocassional vampire movie :D

Some of my favorite ones, in no order:

-Underworld/Underworld Evolution
-Interview With A Vampire
-Near Dark
-From Dusk Till Dawn
-Bram Strokers Dracula(one made around '94)
-Fright Night ...
