BlackFlagg 0 Report post Posted October 19, 2003 I just watched Becoming Part 2 again and how stupid is it that Spike knocked Drusilla out with a Sleeper Hold!? She's a vampire how would a sleeper hold work on her?? Why is it in Fool for Love, that in the 1880 flashback when Angelus holds Spike's throat, he sounds like he has trouble breathing? It's just whacky Joss physics. We also see their breath in some episodes. Unacceptable! And in Prophecy Girl, Angel can't give Buffy CPR...no breath...yet vamps can smoke Never mind the smoking... if vampires "have no breath", how can they speak? How do their vocal chords vibrate? No, I'd fault the "I have no breath line, ratehr than all the thigns that contradict it. Just because they don't NEED to breathe doesn't mean they don't go through the motions of it.

Guest Eric the Eagle Report post Posted October 19, 2003 Yes, but Angel specifically says he can't give Buffy CPR, because he "has no breath". Which just gets rather silly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mole 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2003 There are too many little things from Buffy that they messed up on. Give Joss a break! He isn't THAT much of a genious. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ravenbomb 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2003 he couldn't have just said he didn't know CPR? I don't know how to do CPR. Beyond pushing on some spot on the chest and blowing into their mouth, I got nothing. As for the vampire sex thing, how do they get hard if there's no blood flowing? If they died with one and it stayed hard like in Clerks I could understand, but if not... and what Joss' stuff lacks in continuity type things, it makes up for in other things...or something...

Mole 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2003 If these rules were true, then vampires wouldn't be true anyway. They couldn't live, even though they are dead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Man I've been wondering about the erection thing for awhile, but didn't really want to ask about it. Technically the would never be able to get hard unless they were always hard or something.

RavishingRickRudo 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2003 It would be been better off had they be given breath, but since they can't die, they can't drowned or be poisoned though an airborn virus. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BorneAgain 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2003 They need to establish if vampires are cold or are room temperature, cause if its the former, well that makes the events in Surprise and season 6... kinda icky. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In "The Initiative" from Season Four, when Riley, Graham, and Forrest are looking for Spike and using that temperature sensor, Spike clocks in at room temp.

Jingus 0 Report post Posted October 21, 2003 On a kinda related note, I just ran across My Stepmother Is An Alien on cable last night. This movie was made, what, fifteen years ago? It really drives home just how old Alyson Hannigan really is, cause she could've passed for a high school aged kid here. And the weirdest part: at one point, she went out on a date, and I realized that the boy was none other than a really young and dorky-looking Seth Green. Small world.

Small world. heh, yep, couldn't believe how old she is when I first found out. Can't believe she turns 30 next year. Also another interesting note on Seth<who also turns 30 next year one month before Alyson, heh>, he played young Richie in IT. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mole 0 Report post Posted October 22, 2003 One of my friends told me something interesting. Well I think it is. My friends, Ken, saw a Buffy poster in my room the other week. He was like, you know Warren? I was like, Adam Busch, with a C. He has done some artwork for Adam's band, though the name of the band slips my mind. He was friends with Adam for a while, but they just lost touch with eachother. I guess Adam has a big ego now because he was on Buffy and was a Big Bad.
