Sam's Thread of Movie Lists and Chit Chat (w/Jake)

Aren't you one of those weirdos that says Blade 2 is better than Blade 1?

Are you talking to me? Can't be me. I don't have any recollection of ever discussing the Blade films on this or any other forum. If you're asking though, Blade 1 is far and away the best film in that trilogy. As a matter of fact, IMO, it has the best super hero introduction scene of any super hero film.

Blade 3 also includes Ryan Reynolds' best on-screen insult to date when he calls Parker Posey a "cock-juggling thundercunt"

Curveball: Blade 3 is the best because of Triple H and the best comeback in cinema history: Dracula asks Blade if he's ready to die and Blade responds, "I was born ready, motherfucker." Plus the shot for which Wesley Snipes refused to open his eyes so they CG'd eyeballs onto him.



All in all, a cinematic masterpiece.

Crank is indeed better than Crank 2, if only for the reveal of Jason Statham being able to read subtitles in universe.

I've never seen Blade 3, and I did not know there was a scene where Wesley Snipes refused to open his eyes. That's fucking hilarious.

Yeah I think I get what you mean about Deadpool 2. For a movie you expect to be just as much a comedy as an action movie, they sure would go long stretches of time without making jokes, and about half of the ones they did were make were just eh. It was still pretty fun, but not nearly as good as the first.

It had just as many, if not more, jokes that landed as didn't for me. I think I enjoyed it a little more than the first but not because of comedy or action. This one had more emotion and heart. Just as good if not a little better than the original for me.

SSJPhenom and Deadpool 2 have a lot in common. They're both rated unsuitable for minors.

I read that in Val Venis' voice.

I feel like they went for heart but missed by a country mile. I was sitting through long scenes with sad piano music and it was all very "When are we going to get to the fireworks factory?"

Props for including homosexual characters who are overtly stated to be homosexual though. The next step: having them impact the plot in any way, shape, or form.
