Annoying Movie Commercials

[gray_ghost]

So I am watching Blade 3: Trinity and Blade's new vampire killing friends are suited up, ready to slay some bloodsucker booty. Blade looks around - see's hot sexy Lara Croft vampire killer busy fussing with her iPod. Linger on iPod. Linger on Mac screen so you can see her creating a playlist.

Blade looks at other vampire killer with WTF look in his eyes (very similar to look I had as a matter of fact).

"She's creating a playlist. She likes to listen to MP3s when she's hunting. You know, dark wave, hip hop, whatever the kids are listening to these days."

Blade looks ahead. The matter of where the Nightstalkers are getting the cash to fight vampires has been settled. And btw...this SUV they are driving around in has some nice upholstery....

*titter* I just posted an iPod rant in my LJ *grin*

Stupid iPods.

But yeah, that's a bit much for the corporate whoring. I hate utter obviously, you'd think they could try for subtle, eh?

I HATE iPods. Stupid DRM. And I hate how Apple people (iPods, Macs, whatever) act like they just joined a cult (determined in this case by what you consume instead of who you are). And I hate that guy at Starbucks who is always sitting at the back with his iced frappucino mixing a playlist on his Mac while listening to his iPod. I don't know who that guy is but there is one in every Starbuck's I've been to. He's probably part of some viral marketing campaign. And I hate Bush! And yeah....

I totally agree with apple cult philosphy. It's insane! I'm not sure if you read Penny Arcade, but this appeared 2-3 years ago. I feel it's a good reflection on Mac owners.

's not like every movie in the industry about hackers doesn't have an apple glowing it's little heart out like it was the cutting edge of technology.

btw - did you like b3? (i mean, for a probably turdy movie) cuz i heard that W.Snipes was really pissed off because he thought they stopped following the story of Blade and started following the white kids who were his sidekicks...

Oh jesus....

How can you have a Blade movie without Wesley Snipes....he's going to be making the damn things when he's in a walker.

At this point, the white kids seem to be providing convenient cannon fodder for Blade.

Yes, it's pretty cool. I like it better than the second one. Not as good as the first. I like the soundtrack in this one a lot. I think I'm going to buy it when it comes out. Haven't finished watching it yet though. As far as trashy movies go, you could do worse.

The only downside in the Blade franchise is that as soon as some hot girl starts getting all goo-goo eyed looking at Blade, she buys the farm before anyone has a chance to see her naked. Chaste kisses...and that's it. Being a Blade girl is not good for your health.

it's the rightful fate of all chicks who try and go after tormented heroes, though, isn't it? *grin*
