[Marc]

Buffy would kill him in a second.

[Mystic Mock]

I prefer Buffy over the poser anyday.

[Kate!]

Buffy

[Z]

-senses none of you watched the video-

[Marc]

I watched half and it

[Mystic Mock]

I watched none of it.

[Niamh.]

I watched the first couple of minutes with the volume down, then I skipped to the end lol

[Marc]

Don't you study German..?

[Z]

Don't you study German..?

Yup.

[Z]

One of my modules is "Vampires and Vampirism: Intercultural Perspectives" and basically it looks at the ideas connected to vampire stories (e.g. fear of the unknown, strangers, transmission of diseases, gender issues blah blah blah) and it's taught by one of the three German lecturers at my uni and we had to pick two of the three available so yeah.

[Marc]

Is Buffy still sexy and brilliant in Germany?

That sounds really interesting... That comes across as a little sarcastic, but I mean it. I love vampire stories and films. Honestly though, Edward could take Buffy.

Doesn't it! I'm really enjoying it so far, it sounds ridiculous on paper but it's actually so fascinating. I've to give a presentation in December on vampires and the psychology of the victim, and we've to link it in general with victims of crime and we have to find examples we can compare real life crimes to fictional vampire story victims etc... :hugesmile:

[Marc]

Livia... Buffy died twice and survived. Plus she totally wiped out a hellmouth.

Edward just fancies a really awful actress and got killed by Voldemorte

[Z]

Oh and Marc, we watched it in English :laugh: the module's nothing to do with German, it's just taught by the German lecturer so it counts for credits in the German subject. Confusing but yeah.

That sounds intriguing. Have you started working out your presentation? I'd be really interested to know how you tackle it.

I'm still waiting for a vampire story that's anywhere near as good as Bram Stoker's original Dracula.

I never watched Barbie the Vampire Slayer... but I still reckon Edward comes out on top. He's so... glittery.

[Marc]

Raging.

Livia I'm just going to leave this thread before we have a lovers tiff

[Z]

Not yet Livia but I'll probably start working on it later on in October, I've plenty of time to work on it! I'll let you know what I end up doing!

Not too sure about Edward, but I think Jasper would eat Buffy alive tbh.

But do you ever use those rooms? :laugh: we were told we'd have nice old lecture rooms... Then got some portacabin things :idc:

Only for exams, generally... but now that I'm in Honours I've got a couple of classes in that part! So exciting :amazed:
