I keep pushing the Blade factor because no one seems to be willing to give me there opinion of Blade.

I really like Blade. He's noble, and he's a serious slayer type. He's handsome, he's strong, and he's on the side of humanity. He also has a sense of humor.

Thank god for Buffy, Angel, and Blade. True heros.

I love the Blade movies. But I'm kind of addicted to the whole vampire genre thing. Haven't gotten into Buffy or Angel though. I hated that they really killed off Whistler though, I've always loved Chris Christopherson.

What do you think of the two Underworld movies?

The reason I never watched Buffy the vampire Slayer in the past was its name. Whenever I was channel surfing I would catch a scene or two of Buffy and immediatly think it was stupid and move on.

What got me into it was Firefly. I was totally sucked into those characters that Joss created. Also it was because of the writings of some of the people on this board. They were going on and on about Buffy. I had to try to see what they saw in order to understand it. Well, I went from season 1 to 5 in short order and I'm a total Buffy fan. Buffy is a true hero.

Anyway. I think Blade is also a total hero. he's so bad assed, and it is clear that he LIKES what he does. Blade is the bomb as they say. He's a true Slayer.

I liked the movie Buffy, but something about the bad guys makeup always bothered me. It just never looked real enough I guess. Those brow ridges are just disturbing. I'll eventually give in.

Have you ever read Laurell K. Hamilton? It's kind of like an R rated Buffy. The Anita Blake series is great! Vampires, werewolves, zombies, all dispatched with River-like speed and Mal-like attitude.

I saw the movie and it was beyond retarded. Ignore the Buffy movie.

Watch the series.

So does anyone know who the actor is playing Blade on the series? I've only seen glimpses of the commercials but he looks like the actor who protrayed Ray Charles, Jaimi Foxx. If it isn't him he sure looks a lot like him. It looks like it may be an interesting series but SpikeTV is even more toned down censreship than TBS, still might catch an epi or two.

If I'm a bitch, then life just got interesting

For some reason I find a tiny blond girl more believeable than Wesley Snipes. He seems like he's trying too hard. It's been a long time though. Maybe I'll check it out again.

I loved the Blade movies. Much to the dismay of my best friend - I really liked the last one. I thought Ryan Reynolds was a hoot.

I feel sorry for Blade. It would be such a sad solitary life.

Parker Posey was great in it as well.

I liked the Buffy movie. It was campy.

Has anyone seen Queen of the Damned?

I really liked the Underworld films, the first one more so. Althought the second one just about cut it, I was a little disappointed.

Now Blade is a differnt matter, I do like Blade, I have found the extended editions to be good films that can be watched repeatedly, although they are not in the same league as Firefly for repeat screenings.

As for Buffy and Angel, I like them both but prefer Angel. I think the story lines tend to have more to them.

I liked the first and the last Blade movie. I kinda struggled with the second one, but it was still mostly entertaining for me. I think it was the central premise that bothered me.

I enjoyed the hell out of the Buffy movie! Of course it apparently wasn't anything like it was supposed to be when it was written, but it was a good time. I don't care what was initially written, what was produced was *supposed* to be over the top and super campy! Paul Ruebens has a five minute death after staking for crying out loud. I wanted to pee in my pants watching that.

I freely admit that I have trouble watching Buffy the Series. The makeup irks the crap out of me (since it's at least halfway being serious), and I have trouble getting around the idea in my head that Buffy was marketed well and sold well because SMG is a hottie to draw in the prepubescent boys and a pretty yet powerful superheroine for the girlies. I know deep down, especially after having gotten into Firefly, that it is so much more than that, but I just can't shake it. *sigh*

I'm not real big on QotD, either. Actually, I personally have been VERY let down by all of the Vampire Chronicle movies. I absolutely loved the books, so I had a big purist thing with them. It even made me sadder that Anne Rice said she really liked them - it made *me* feel like the weirdo

Oh well...
