Why do werewolves always play second fiddle to vampires?
There are far more movies and comics about vampires than werewolves. Are the quasi-canines getting a raw deal or is it just that vampires are sexier. What's going on here?
It's because vampires are more evil. When it comes to movies and comics, people tend to prefer a villain that is constantly, well, villainous (vampires are cold and nasty 24/7). As far as movies go, werewolves aren't evil until they shift. Nobody likes it when you vanquish the guy who had a life (unlike the vampires because they are stereotypical villains with nothing better to do than star in horror movies).
Although I think werewolves are under-appreciated, I don't really want any more cookie-cutter hollywood horror films with them... they are all the same essentially, how can the number really matter?
I know, it just doesn't seem right. Ive always liked the Werewolves better myself. I think your right tho, who wants to fantasize about a big hairy beast?? So yes, Vampires are sexier and sex sells.
Maybe because werewolves can't fly, climb walls or move as fast as vampires. Plus, vampires are 'beautiful' and 'sexy' and immortal. I don't know if werewolves are immortal...

ask Dracula,
you can't miss his house,
when you get to Transylvania,
head 2 miles out a town,
turn left at the second crossroads,
and 4 miles up that road
to the right take the lane,
and there his house is.
when you know the answer,
tell me.
Something about Dogs and obeying commands.
WW are too hairy. Who likes shedding fur?
Vampires suck things and what's better than that.
It's all that pesky body hair and not a depilatory in sight.
depends on if you like that cool, intense eye-to-eye contact or that hot, fuzzy look with a bit of growling....=)
I dont know
I guess "SEX" sells
