If I wanted to watch sexy vampires I'd put on Underworld & skip past scenes that didn't have Kate Beckinsale in them. *drools*
It's another victim of hype, and the UK just didn't get into it. So what if it got a load of awards, I've got a stack of awards & I don't see people watching me.
Put simple, unless you want to watch something then it doesn't matter how much of a big deal people make, you're not gonna want to watch it.
