I’m loving how obvious the brothers’ rings are, and how they’re identical.

Betty White, Def Leppard… people might start thinking we TVD fans are a little bit weird. ;)

I had the same thought!

Yeah, I could only see a little bit before the video crapped out on me. Thank you. I’m gonna try again.

You know, I’m getting sick to death of assumptions being made about the story of the Vampire Diaries based solely on trailers and promo images. I’ve just seen a comment on twitter that really annoyed me. Based on this trailer, the person essentially made a sarcastic comment that TVD was going to be just like Twilight with that whole ‘possessive and controlling makes for a heart throb’ theme.

Vampire Diaries Is. Not. Like. That.

It is not a case of control = sexy. That’s never implied in the books. In fact, Damon’s attempts to control Elena are virtually always thwarted, and the one time that he succeeds it’s made very clear in the books that this is a BAD thing, and not something that Elena finds at all sexy and compelling. The whole story is a testament to Elena’s independence and force of will. This is a girl who is not willingly controlled by anyone, and that includes Damon.

As for the trailer: yes, Damon’s hand wraps around Elena’s throat, but that’s actually an element of Damon showing that he can be both wicked or gentle in the blink of an eye, and that the viewer shouldn’t forget that. Damon is sexy, but dangerous as hell, and that’s something that Elena is VERY aware of in the books, and the reader is made aware of it too. He’s a bad boy. He’s never painted as some kind of romantic hero like Edward, he never even tries to be ‘good’. When Damon is at his worst, you feel trepidation. You never think it’s romantic.

Damon Salvatore is a prime example of the anti-hero, and that’s why we all love him.

“Love Sucks” promo with portuguese(BR) subtitles by Darklegenders http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7_JpMtcEW_M

Yes! A thousand times yes.

You know, I still see a dream sequence from Elena’s POV with a ménage à trois coming at some point. That’s the only reason I can come up with for all the groping.

Not that I don’t enjoy the groping. Because I do. In fact, I want more groping, please.

Ain’t nothing wrong or weird with a bit of Leppard!
I think Maiden’s Fear Of The Dark should be in there somewhere- “I have a constant fear that somethings always near.”
Yeah I know in my dreams?:P

The promo is awesome and Nina was gorgeous!
There’s a spanish version in youtube by the way ^^

That would be awesome! Fear of the Dark is one of my favorites songs from Iron Maiden and really suits the series…
