You could take a clip of that scene, paste an apple logo on the end, and have a ready-made commercial. There isn't much to the movie in the first place, but did they have to be so obvious in their product placement? Was that scene the proverbial eighteen wheeler that broke the camel's back for anyone else?

Parts of it were good, parts were really bad. The whole scene with her shooting arrows faster to work out agression was one of the dumbest scenes I have seen in a long time. Regardless, the story behind it was good.

I enjoyed the movie simply because it was blade, and jessica biel is mad hot. Their advertisements were bs though.


Has anyone else noticed that this is becoming much more common in movies nowadays? I,Robot anyone?

There are numerous, numerous, product placement shots of Apple logos.

-Yeah, but that scene was the worst. "I know, I don't get pumped up by killing vampires so I'll play crappy music loud so I can't hear anything either."

I thought that "Drake" was a pretty weak boss too. He might have been cool but they didn't flesh him out enough. I like movies where there are multiple encounters between the protagonist and the main antagonist. In blade 2 at least there were 2 major fights between blade and nomak.

Edit: Nomak was a MUCH cooler character from the start, as well.

It was pretty bad. The dialog was horrible as was most of the storyline. It's too bad they made such a mess of the series.
