WEREWOLVES
New to BH? This post does not contain spoilers, but the comments might...
Ìý
Seeing as we're honouring George and his plentiful best bits this week, it seemed a good idea to look at some of the mythology and history surrounding werewolves, condense it into our own bite-size interpretation, and take a look at a few of George's famous ancestors...
Ìý
The question is, where does George fit in the grand mythology of werewolves? And is he, as some might say, the greatest onscreen werewolf ever? Get stuck in and add your comments, we'll be looking out for your best responses over the weekend...
Ìý
SO WHAT IS A WEREWOLF?
Ìý
Werewolves, also known as lycanthropes to brainy werewolf show-offs, are mythological humans that occasionally turn (or "shape-shift") into wolf-like creatures with extra-human strength and super-senses. Some turn on purpose, others - like our George -have no control over it. They have been placed under a curse following an 'unfortunate' bite or scratch by another werewolf. When their "time of the month" comes, they transform from human to wolf, and this is usually associated with the appearance of the full moon. Once in werewolf form, the hairy howlers tend to be a fairly tetchy bunch; sniffing out everyone and everything under their hairy noses and ripping it to shreds.
Ìý
FAMOUS WEREWOLVES
Ìý
George may be our favourite onscreen werewolf but how do his hairy-toed footsteps fit in with the illustrious line of celebrity howlers? Here are a few references to get you started...
Ìý
American Werewolf (in
John Landis' movie 'An American Werewolf in
Ìý
Teen Wolf:
In the classic 1985 movie 'Teen Wolf', Michael J Fox plays Scott, a teenager who discovers that puberty for him means turning into a werewolf. The good news though is that he turns into a really good basketball player too! Like George, Teen Wolf struggles to mix chasing girls and trying to be cool with being a part-time wolf with hairy palms. The movie was a massive hit and helped to make werewolves a little more loveable.
Ìý
Wolf (Jack Nicholson):
In 1994, Jack Nicholson starred as Will Randall, an ageing publisher at the end of his tether after a younger, sexier co-worker steals his job and his wife. But after being bitten by a wolf, Will finds himself with loads more energy and strength (and later - hairy palms) which is great until he starts devouring humans and stuff. It's certainly not the greatest of werewolf movies, but Jack Nicholson is a legend so it deserves a mention nonetheless.
Ìý
Michael Jackson:
Yes, even the King of Pop has dabbled as a hairy creature. In his hugely famous 14 minute music video 'Thriller', MJ morphs into a furry growler while out on a date. After the lucky lady agrees to go steady with Michael, he points out that he's "not like other guys" before shape-shifting and chasing her down the road. Later in the video, loads of zombies join Michael to do the now-famous monster-dance in the street.
So over to you, how does our George match up to his onscreen competition?

I don't think George has much competition for best werewolf on screen. He's as sympathetic a character as I can remember in any series or film in a long time. He also didn't die right away, as most werewolves on screen do for the sake of convenience.

It's lovely George is so human but a bit of a pain for him that he can't choose to change when, for instance, he comes up against Seth and the others.

George is definately the best werewolf ever!! I never really cared that much about Oz in Buffy or Michael J Fox or any of the others, but George is just sooo well acted I really care what happens to him. I especially like that he manages to keep his human side even when turning into a werewolf, 'It doesn't rob me of my humanity... it proves it'. Brilliant.

We know that he does just before and after a change, but the rest of the time (if he didn't ignore it and pretend it wasn't there) could draw on it to use better hearing, sight, smell, strength etc? That would be useful as he wouldn't need to use his glasses. The same goes for Annie, when she's feeling strong and confident could she concentrate enough to be able to drink a cup of tea without it falling straight through?

Anyway George. Personally I've never been one for Werewolves. I'm mean they're great but I've never really though 'ooh that's amazing' or anything like that. So George was the first werewolf that I really started to love. And he is great. Also I prefer some characters in BH over him, he is certainly my favourite werewolf in the world. :)

He has such big eyes too. I think the big, blue innocent looking eyes helps his case. And the way he's trying to live innocently even though he has to go turn into a werewolf once every 28 days. It makes him seem more like a victim. Which they all are really. But you know. It makes him a loveable character.

I think that's traditionally the point of werewolves: that they're victims even more so than their prey. I've nothing against the idea they can learn to control it, but that eradicates the whole curse aspect of it. Then it's like some unfashionable super power.

Re your 37, I hope I speak for my fellow M's here when I say that no convincing is needed. We all adore George (and indeed Russell) and think he is absolutely wonderful. But it's just a different kind of 'adore'. For me personally, I just want to keep George safe and happy, and make sure we always have 'proper coffee' in, it's all very, well, for want of a better word, maternal.
And with Mitchell, it is soooo not that!!
But there is no doubt with us that George/Russell rules.

I can't pick a George fave moment though coz there's just too many, though I did really like the touching bit when he's saying goodbye to Mitchell and Annie is being all grumpy with him, and we know he's about to do this really brave thing. And the bit where he's stressing about what shirt to wear (must be the only one who kinda liked the flowery number), and the 'I am not the paedo, that's my housemate'.

Yeah I agree about the transformation - I dont think Lupin's was particularly bad just different - not very wolf like - George looks more like a wolf when hes transformed but Lupin looks like some sort of wierd monster thing.
Also the thing I never got about Lupin - he says that the boys became animagi because he was no threat to them as animals but surely all wolves killl animals especially a rat and he would certainly fight another dog...i guess a stag could defend himself though but hmm is there an answer to that or did it just have to work for the book to work lol

And David Naughton play from An American Werewolf In London is another of my top favourite werewolves - that film set the bar for the more painful transformation sequences. And I personally love the wolf there - it does looke more like a bear but its purely an animal.
No-one has mentioned the werewolves in Dog Soldiers yet, I don't think... now they were cool wolves. Hehe!
Um, at risk of upsetting Lupin fans, I love the character but the wolf itself didn't really impress me though it does score points for looking like an animal instead of a man with fur on his face. :D
If you're talking transformations, I like the Lycan change in Ultraviolet, and I enjoyed the unusual one in Van Helsing where the man rips his skin off to reveal the wolf underneath, and vice versa for the change back. But, of course, the torturous changes in An American Werewolf In London and our beloved George's are my favourites by far... does that make me sadistic?

"Irish actor Aidan Turner, who takes the role of Mitchell the vampire, doesn't have to undergo quite as much make-up a general anaemic tinge seems to suffice. But he also had problems with his false teeth."
"I was hoping I'd have them in all the time, what with me being a vampire and all," he laughs. "But actually, they only appear in one or two scenes.
There was one terrible moment early on when I was supposed to be biting a woman's neck. It was only after the scene was finished, that I realised the false fangs actually had left two puncture wounds in the actress' neck. I felt terrible about having actually drawn blood. I mean, how was I to know? She was screaming anyway."

While I have got your attention. A question, This expression 'shape-shifter' As Blackadder would say "Down our way" a shape-shifter is a fibber, is it a BH term or am I the only person in the world who never knew it was a werewolf.
