It just seemed like obvious pandering to audience 'demographic - male 18-21 yrs.'. Yes, there was a nod to the Bram Stoker's version, but barely a nod. A nod hardly worth the head jerk. So his origins are now that he's from Sumerian. And? Yes? How did he become vampire? And why did Dracula (seem to) defer to the other vampires when he was clearly more powerful than them? I've got a million and one nit picks with the movie. <BR/><BR/>Cece - yeah, the vampire dogs were cute for about 1 sec. :-P Since they didn't really do anyting, what was the point? And Triple H, what was up with the metal fangs? Was that suppposed to make him more scary? I laughed my ass off at that scene where he's running behind the get away car. Now *there* was a freakish sight.vanessa jayehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11059178422559443067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8664187.post-1115079659900564982005-05-02T20:20:00.001-04:002005-05-02T20:20:00.001-04:00ok I suck....my comment didn't show up so I commen...ok I suck....my comment didn't show up so I commented again =(Amie Stuarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14145328243563702260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8664187.post-1115079636785581462005-05-02T20:20:00.000-04:002005-05-02T20:20:00.000-04:00My fucking comment got ate!

I can't remember what else...oh there was no leather and it really took away from Blade's imposing appearance. <BR/><BR/>But you do have to admit that that vampire pomeranian was pretty damned funny!Amie Stuarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14145328243563702260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8664187.post-1115056946701831092005-05-02T14:02:00.000-04:002005-05-02T14:02:00.000-04:00I agree w/Maili....the double plot lines were too ...I agree w/Maili....the double plot lines were too much. The biggest hting that bugged me about B3 was the um rather SLOW pacing.

BLADE: TRINITY is the weakest, but I dislike B2 most, which kills me because I adore on Perlman and del Toro's works. :P<BR/><BR/>B3's biggest flaw is their attempt to cram in two major plot lines: "Dracula" and the harvest scheme. By doing that, both are neglected and underused. Don't let me start on Parker Posey. <BR/><BR/>In fairness, B3 does acknowledge and pay an understated tribute to Bram Stoker's version of vampirism, e.g. immunity to the sun, ability to shape-shift, etc. Not many films do that. Including DRACULA 2000. :D <BR/><BR/>If you're in mood to try something different, I recommend FRAILTY, SESSION 9, THE DEVIL'S BACKBONE [dir. by del Toro], THE EYE -- hm, shall I shut up? *thinking* Yes. :Dlosthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08442753250306506463noreply@blogger.com
