Blade 4: MOST RESENT THEATRICAL EXPERIENCES!!! (and pigs in space)

Not to be confused with every movie this last year that came out, or even a movie that came out this last year. These are my reactions to movies that I didn't get around to seeing until recently, and even then only the top five worth mentioning.

First off Blade 4:


As some of you know, I am one of the newsprint reading masses who actually gives a shit about comic books. Now I never truly got into Blade. You wanna know why? It's the vampires. Correct me if I'm wrong but you're supposed to become the bastard son of Hulk and Doctor Strange when you become a vamp right? From what I've seen and read, Blade vampires only get the super strength. No voice tricks, no instant entrapment. Just plain humans on steroids. That's why I don't like the series.

Not that I have anything against the movies. For an action-packed monster movie series it's good. Plently of bullet-time effects and awesome fighting styles and weapons. That's what it takes filmakers, that's it. The series is great, and even the writing wasn't half bad. I especially liked the third one, which for some reason is the least appreciated of the original three.

Now to Spike's take. Yes it was bought by Spike, but the truth is, I like this decision. Out of any network, I trust Spike to take care of this franchise and turn it into something it always should have been. So far they haven't butchered it, and hopefully they keep making more, because the ending was open and the possibilities are endless. I actually couldn't watch the TV Series and hopefully they kept up the good work.
