Title: So I just saw Blade II
Post by: nO-One on April 04, 2002, 04:34:24 PM
some spoilers!!!

What can I say, it was good but I didnt\'t like the vampires, sure they were cool as hell but they weren\'t vampires worth ****, they were just braindead zombies all except one. The only thing they had incommon with vamps was that they drank blood.
The whole vampire conspiracy thing was so obvious from the beginning, and nobody trusted that annoying little sidekick Blade got, the fact he was always trying to point the finger at Whistler made it all to obvious.
And my biggest gripe, some of the fighting scenes were just laughable, especially when Blade was fighting the ninja vamps. The way it was kinda fast forwarded made me laugh, I relise it was done to make them look superhumanly fast but it just looked ridiculous.
And again on the zombie vamps, just how the hell did they stick to the walls?? I mean they just crawled on walls like some Spider Man wannabe\'s.

The movie itself was OK, entertaining and they had some nice suspense scenes. I\'m not gonna deny the overall coolness factor of the spider zombies and the brutal fighting scenes. And there was enough blood in it to satisfy my satistic desires.

But I still left out one thing, and one thing that REALLY got on my nerves.....the techno rap music blend. It works for the matrix and many other movies, but this is a vampire movie they should have played some heavy metal, preferably black metal to match the vampires. Ofcourse these are the complaints of a rocker, but still people usually put black metal and vampire (or atleast vampire wannabe\'s) in the same category.

I loved the second one.  I saw it last Friday night.  Great action scenes (and only 2 1/2 unnecessary uses of slow motion :)).  The story was decent too.  I liked it as much as the first one.

A friend of mine said that the second one was cool, but I have this thing against sequels. I\'ll wait to see it when it comes out on DVD.

I thought the movie, was at least as good as the first one, considering the fact that the first one in my opinion was awesome.

This one had better action and more enterainment than the first movie.

It was better than Blade.

Please, don\'t expect Oscar caliber awards here. This is a fun flick.

The difference between Blade and MI2, as I already said, Blade only has 2.5 unnecessary uses of slow motion.

The concepts were really good, but the story sucked.  Through the entire movie everybody kept on asking me annoying questions about vampires.  I guess I\'m somewhat of an expert.
