The only thing scarier than the trend of musical based movies and the proliferation of movies staring Zac Efron is the current trend of vampires. They are everywhere. We have hundreds of books, about 5 shows and more and more movies based on vampires coming out every year. I don’t understand it, but apparently chubby goth girls think that vampires will love them even though no one else will. This gives them hope and Hot Topic the best financial quarter they have had in years.
Yes. People actually pay money to look like this
We see this in Hollywood and popular culture every couple of years. First, we had the superhero trend, then pirates, followed by the dwarves/elfs trend, then the wizard/magic trend and now finally we have the vampire trend. These trends usually result in true fans being angry because, “they were wizards/vampires/comic book nerds before it was cool to be a wizard/vampire/comic book nerd.” Girls however are not impressed and will still not kiss them.
lets combine 2 things that have not been overdone at all. Penguins AND ninjas
Here at Reel Stupid, we have our hands on the pulse of Hollywood and are able to tell you what the next couple of HUGE trends to hit the world are going to be. In no particular order they are:
- Giants- BFG anyone? This trend is going to be large (pun intended). Hagrid was just the beginning of this trend and who knows where it will end.
- Greek/ Roman Mythology- This area has been touched by Disney and others but no one has really delved deep into the sick twisted minds of both of these cultures.
- Plumbers/Electricians- Joe the plumber is the name that comes to mind here. Handy man by day- handier man by night!
Hey! I have that lamp also!
When looking at Jennifer’s body, I don’t really know what to say about it. Being written by Diablo Cody (Juno) and directed by Karyn Kusama (Aeon Flux), we don’t have much to go off of. Aeon Flux was a major flop but Juno was everyone’s favorite overrated movie. I think that they are making fun of the genre and poking fun at the formulaic way that highschool movies turn out but I can’t be 100% sure. Regardless of actual quality, Megan Fox starring in this movie is going to fill the theater and www.vampfangs.com is going to sell buttloads of specially fitted vampire fangs. ORDER NOW!
cause non-custom fangs just don't cut it...
