Cool. Any idea what it's about? Apart from vampires, of course.

From www.imdb.com:

"As an apocalyptic event takes place that could shift the control of the planet Earth from the hands of humanity to the claws of vampires, the Daywalker, Blade (Snipes) is the only person who can turn the tide of the crisis against the undead blood suckers and prevent the world from becoming a "Planet of the Vampires". To make things a lot harder for Blade, the vampire leadership launches a public relations "smear campaign" against Blade, letting the world of humans know that he exists, so that the police start hunting him down, thinking he is some sort of horrible monster..."

if he survives this. they could make Blade 4 or the quartet as they may call it, BLADE RUNS FOR SENATOR.
could work.

And then:

Blade IV: Trying desperately for new ideas
Blade V: Recycling crap from the first four films
Blade VI: ENOUGH ALREADY!
Blade VII: Blade meets the Care Bears
Blade VIII: Straight to video since Blade IV, yet no-one noticed

...and then Blade the shit TV series starring some nobody from a yank daytime soap who thinks it's a platform for serious cinematic work who uses the phrase "As an actor..." in every single fucking interview, and a pudgy self proclaimed auteur plastering his name over it all and creaming his jeans over his "witty and groundbreaking" musical episode, and a new female character introduced in season three solely to up the titty quota, and some other soap refugee who gets named in the opening titles every week even though you never see them... then the blanket fawning coverage in SFX... and the inevitable episode guides, illiterate novels, endless dinner plates and toby jug style cash-in crap on sale in Forbidden Planet... oh, and there'll be conventions... lots and lots of conventions...

Ouch - you couldn't *possibly* be referring to another vampire-slayer here, could you? ;-)

Number two was so full of holes it looked as though Blade hade been staking the script. This sounds pretty daft.

Frighteningly, though, the TV series deal sounds very possible (anyone seen Relic Hunter, and the drek that's on Sci-Fi channel in beteen the Farscape re-runs?), Blade would be a 'perfect' choice, only cute 'n' cuddly, Buffy style, with an amusing comedy sidekick.

"in fact, it reminds me slightly of Pob"

Now there's a film waiting to be made!

Coming soon: Judge Dredd 2 - Dredd vs Pob

He even looks like the classic perp here:)
