Pacificshore Posted September 14, 2002 Posted September 14, 2002 Hmm........I liked Blade II, in fact I think I'll add it to my DVD collection along with Kiss of the Dragon, The One, Iron Monkey, Replacement Killers, Blackhawk Down, We were Soldiers, so on and so on!! I see all movies as a means of escape from the daily grind of life. Plots, choreography don't necessarily mean a whole lot to me. I'm either gonna like it or not. I've walked out on only 2 movies I can recall. One was a very bad rendition of what was suppose to be a martial arts film mixed with gymnastics( I think you all know what movie I'm referring to), and the other actually won some Academy Awards, which put me to sleep. Well just my 2 cents on the topic. Di'DaDeeeee!!!Mind of Mencia
Wado Guy Posted September 15, 2002 Posted September 15, 2002 I posted earlier on Blade 2. I wasnt crazy for all the cgi stuff...in fact...it was annoying at times. For those of you who need the clarification : There is a BIG difference between between reality and what goes on in a movie. Now, that having been said I want you guys to watch the movie again. Check out the "flow" of the moves Snipes is performing. Check out how he performs the moves. It takes someone with a descent degree of skill to pull off some of the things he did. I'm not saying he is a martial arts deity or anything, but the guy is no joke for sure.
MonkeyNinja Posted September 16, 2002 Posted September 16, 2002 Blade 1 was totally awesome! Blade 2 was not so good. The story line wasn't too good. The special effects was good. But overall I wasn't too impressed. Blade3???? Just as long as they do more of the martial arts coreography, and less computer graphics. Did you hear that Terminator 3 is supposed to be coming out in December or January? It is supposed to be in the timeline of after "Sarah" died. Should be interesting. Or I would hope it is.

BlackI Posted September 16, 2002 Author Posted September 16, 2002 I just watched it again for the 2nd time last night and I noticed Donnie Yen did the martial arts choregraphy for this movie. He is the guy how played in Iron Monkey In search of the Temple of Light
sk0t Posted September 18, 2002 Posted September 18, 2002 I liked Black 2, i think that it was an excellent compliment to the first one...I dont think that it was as good as the first one and the FX were a little overdone..but that is what I want in a movie, I dont want to watch a movie and see them do the same stuff that I do in a karate school... It was good! sk0t"I shall not be judged by what style I know, but how I apply that style againsts yours..."
SUKU Posted October 25, 2002 Posted October 25, 2002 Wesley Snipes is legit ... Check the moves and you'll see this from years of training and practice..... sure it's all scripted for da movies but Snipes is the real deal.....

kchenault Posted November 5, 2002 Posted November 5, 2002 Blade 2 was a little gross, but I enjoy watching Mr. Snipes perform his "limited" number of techniques. Side note, Blade is supposed to be a bad a$$, therefore bad a$$ moves. Ken ChenaultTFT - It does a body good!
Blade13 Posted December 22, 2002 Posted December 22, 2002 Ok, before I say anything... does anybody care to guess if I want to see BladeIII? haha Yes! Oh yes! I cant wait. I loved the original and the sequel. Yes, I definately agree that there was WAY too much computer animation in Blade II. I don't think they are too bloody though. I have a very strong stomach. I could watch him skin each vampire and throw salt on them and not flinch. For me, sympathy pain went out the window a long long time ago. So yeah, I can watch anything. weeeeeee I like how they dont do the typical vampire movie. This is a bit more realistic (calling vampirism a virus, noting that crosses don't affect them, etc.). I normally can't stand vampire movies, but Blade is just great. BTW, being a fan of this movie isnt how I got my nickname. It came b4 the movie was released.
Molson style Posted December 27, 2002 Posted December 27, 2002 the special effects/blood fit the genre. it wouldn't be so cool if the reapers didn't look so freaky, or if frost wasn't able to be sliced in half and come back together like that. it doesnt really copy another movie's style that i know of. blade is definetly one of my favorite movie series, but then again i'm a fan of vampires, and supernatural fights. i know the fighting's a lil fake but it's a movie so u expect that, and it's based on a comic book.
