Line 17:
** Dracula is an interesting case, in that he has become so [[Lost in Imitation]], those who read the original novel are generally shocked by his inhuman appearance, total amorality (Stoker's Dracula never showed any signs of guilt or love), and clever schemes, rather than the endless tales of tragic beauty and [[Vampire Vords]] that he is incorrectly remembered for.
* ''[[Dragonriders of Pern]]'' started the [[Dragon Rider]] trend in the 1960s, and you would be hard-pressed to find current fantasy writers who ''don't'' make dragons a [[Bond Creature]] in some way.

** ''[[Dragonlance]]'' suffers from this trope as well, alas. Reviews exist of the original Chronicles that tear them apart on the premise that it's such a cheesy/overdone/cliched setting and cast of characters.
* [[Ernest Hemingway]]. Read any other novel or watch a movie on wartime experiences before reading ''[[A Farewell to Arms]]''. It'll end up looking like just another run-of-the-mill war story.
