I'd been thinking that unlike Episode III, which I have to go see just on principle even though if Lucas continues to both write dialogue and direct it's going to suck as badly as the first two did and I'll want to gouge my eyes out about halfway through, I could get away without seeing Blade: Trinity even though it's Wesley Snipes. But then I find out it's also got Indie Queen Parker Posey, and now I have go see it. Damn.

Parker's fun in "Best In Show." :)

And in "Josie and the Pussycats", which was so much better than I had any expectations of it being. =)

My brain is still broken from "House of Yes" though.

I'll go see it with you

The first Blade movie was actually reasonably enjoyable. The second one was just kinda there, but not actually painful to watch or anything. So I could be up for Trinity. Now if only 'twere Parker Posey and Alana Ubach!

My comment was that the movie should have Jennifer Tilly as the girlfriend of Parker Posey's charcter. Even without that, they're still gonna get my $8.50 at least once.

Oh, I really liked the first movie. The second, not so much. But like I said in another comment: vampire movie with Parker Posey, how could I not go see it?

The first Blade was *very* faithful to the comic, with one change that I didn't like.

The second was a Guillermo Del Toro movie more than anything lese..but I like Del Toro.

I am so psyched for this sequel. I think it's an overlooked franchise, and there's one or two things from the comics (like, say, Hannibal King (http://www.marveldirectory.com/individuals/k/kinghannibal.htm)) that coudl be interesting to see in a movie, especially things that play with Blade's genocidal attitude towards vampires.

If I'm being honest, I was gonna see it anyway. How could I not? But I didn't like the second movie nearly as much as the first, and there's the fear that the third will continue the downward trend.

But really, a vampire movie with Parker Posey has got my $9 anyway, and I do have a reasonably high tolerance for bad movies. (See as evidence the fact that I liked "Van Helsing", mostly because I went in expecting very little from it other than yummy eye candy and so was not disappointed. ;) )

When is Episode III due? I thought the last one was in 2001, and they were every three years...

I have no idea, I haven't been following it at all. Next year, I suspect.
