What happened to werewolves who were rational people during the day, and a few nights out of the month were rabid animals with the intelligence of man (like psychopaths), of vampires who were blood sucking corpses who looked down on the masses (like the elite of society), and witches who were people who gained power from Faustian bargains, and would do ANYTHING for more power (like sociopaths)? To dragons who were engines of destruction that couldn't be reasoned with or sated (like the madness of war from the perspective of civilians caught in the crossfire).
Now what we have are just misunderstood minorities with way cool super powers. It's like they transplanted the premise of the X-Men into the classic monsters.

Re: X-Men MCU, taking bets
Taking bets. If Cyclops' father shows up in X-Men, how much money you wanna bet that his wife didn't die at the hands of ghoulish Shi'ar scientists? Or isn't dead at all?
Eto Rangers 5
Eto Rangers 5 Opens with Dog and Monk debating which came first the chicken or the egg. They decide to go to the source and ask Tart (Chicken). She defends that she not just a chicken, but THE Chicken, of course she knows. Then they get called in for a mission, saved by the bell. When they learn the story world this time is the ugly duckling, the rest of the team pick the conflict ball. The team makes awkward comments towards Tart about her appearance. This time it's Mouse (is this guy gonna be on every mission? Can't we have someone else for a change? I know he's the hero of this tale, but it's meant to be a TEAM EFFORT!). Snake. Tart (of course). Pig (FINALLY!). And Bull. Once story side, the conflict ball is bounced around, as their less than pleasant landing leads to Bakamaru(Mouse) making remarks about Tart's big rear. Dr. Snake, "There are things you don't say to a lady." Bull, "But I was just being honest!" (Poor Bull.) Tart goes off in a huff. The team
Eto Rangers episode 4
Eto Rangers episode 4. W're allowed to see the heroes goofing off as they wait to arrive at the next story world. Monkey, Sheep, and Rabbit are eating ice scream. Dog, Tiger, Horse, and Dragon are enjoying green tea. Snake, Horse, and Mouse are drinking coffee... Mouse finds he HATES the taste. And Pig and Chicken are playing a guess game of which color will zoom by next in hyper space. That's right, they actually acknowledge the colorful lines dramatically going passed the ship!!! Next story is the Tortoise and the Hare. Naturally Rabbit is not a fan. Kirin, "Like it or hate it, doesn't matter." And... Mouse (again), Rabbit (again), Monkey (second time in three adventures), Dragon (previous called in for back up last episode), and Dog (second time in three adventures). Poor Pig. Guy doesn't get any love. Remember, in Japanese folklore, Dogs and Monkeys don't get along. Kirin again tell them "Like each other, or hate each other, doesn't mater, don't make keep saying

Yeah, you are right about that... those monsters have basically just become the X-Men. Most of them just have totally awesome powers with no drawbacks or serious weaknesses but society hates them for no reason. Except the original takes were a lot more interesting since people had VERY GOOD reasons to hate and fear them.
I don't mind trying to give something a new spin but sadly those start to crowd the market right now. The reason is simple: Twilight made a lot of money and people like money so we get more books and movies like Twilight.
There are still good interpretations of those classic monsters, I would like to point you towards "Let Me In" (or try the original movie: Let the Right One In) for a decent modern take on vampires. Not the greatest movies of all time but if we had more of these, there would be no reason to complain.
