   Watched #Blade (1998).

   Some things hold up really well, some stuff feels very 90s (of which some holds up, some not), some stuff feels very 80s, like, Paul Verhoeven 80s. The level of splatter is hilarious.

   Love his suit and his fighting style, but man does this story drag on. Haven't decided if I want to see the whole trilogy. This one I've seen before, the others not.

   The sudden level of badassery from the good Doctor doesn't feel believable at all, but I like it.

      Is the rest of the Blade trilogy fun?

      Are the Resident Evil films fun? I love Jovovich in The Fifth Element.

      For some reason, I thought it was a couple of years earlier.
      
      Memory says I saw it back when Wednesday was movie day for me and #sonOne, and that we saw it together. For some reason, I thought we'd stopped by that time ( 1998-08-19 ).

      @clacke In answer to the "Blade" question, I think I've only seen one, so I don't have an answer about whether the others are fun.

      @LinuxWalt (@lnxw48a1) {3EB165E0-5BB1-45D2-9E7D-93B31821F864} Me too. Only one year before The Matrix? Wouldn't have guessed it. As I hinted at, it feels a lot like an 80s film with 90s clothes.

      Which reminds me that I haven't seen The Lost Boys (I think?).

      Stephen Dorff and Kiefer Sutherland look a lot alike, actually.
