Heh. True. Twilight is Vampire Lite.
You don't get the nasty stuff involved with vampires like fangs and blood drinking.
Vampires for Kids! LOL
I like seeing vampires vamp out, the eye changes, fangs coming out, make-up showing their eyes sunken in and that palor to the skin. But, I realize that's not very romantic, so Stephanie cut that out in the books and it's not in the movie much either. We are TOLD that Edward and his family are dangerous, but not really shown, except a lightning fast moment at the very beginning with the deer.
That's why I love Moonlight so much. We get to see vampires be what they REALLY are. Even though Mick struggles with it, he still fights, vamps out, etc.
