Diary entry twenty eight I don't really have much to write about. I was so upset with seeing Blade Trinity. I cried for days. The thing is I'm completely aware that the blade series of films are a way of cashing in on the marvel train and creating a bland cliche 'cool'. Wow! Look at Blade in his sunglasses! Yeah, throwing stars, they're cool. Wicked. Black leather cloak, yeah. wicked, thanks Blade. But as much as I hate myself for it, I like the character, he's a badass. But you always hope that he'll be a complete badass for the whole series. Nope. Lame-o Blade hangs about with that jerk from 'two guys a girl and a pizza place', the MOST ANNOYING of the two guys. He plays the same character, but with a beard. The female 'character' is pretty lame too. Before she hunts vampires she makes play lists for her amazingly cool I-pod. So we have an excuse to fit crappy new age fashionable music in, don't we? Damn. Bad movies give me such a downer. And Casshern! What the hell was that about!?! NOTHING. Films are supposed to have plots!!! You can't just have random images and special effects, put in some philosophy and call it a movie. I'm sick of that. Everyone does it these days. But Team America World Police is good. So is Ong Bak. So is Beautiful boxer, my personal favourite Thai movie about boxers saving up money to become women. Well, I'm off to play with a sword and punch the air for the next six months. take care -IVORY TUMBLER
