    I don't blame Justin, he did a good job playing a 2 dimensional character with little personality other than " gee, golly! if you hurt my friends I'll hurt you back!".

    I hope they do a sequel, but this time in the Z universe.

    I bought this and was extremely disappointed that there was no James Marsters commentary track.

    They ALMOST make up for it with this though:

    In reply to The Horror And Glory Of Blood: The Last Vampire's Ancient Blood-Suckers
    I'm actually kind of looking forward to this. I loved Blood: The Last Vampire and Blood+ (seriously guys, they take place in different AUs, this movie remakes Blood: The Last Vampire. NOT Blood+, the series you all probably saw on Cartoon Network.


    Anyway, the movie allows itself to be adapted to live action pretty well, and I remember hearing in the promos that the producer was also responsible for Crouching Tiger: Hidden Dragon and Hero. Expect to see really cool wire-fu, if you're into that kind of thing. And I am. :)

    Blood+ was a good series, I'll admit, but not something I'd want live action-ed. Now, how about some Fate Stay/Night?

    The writer's strike is the reason I'm such a lousy lay.

    In reply to So When Does The Writers Strike Stop Ruining Movies?
    Hmmm... could it be possible that in some cases the studios (after realising they'd have less product to release because of the writer's strike) just wanted to space out the revenue to later quarters in the year? Hoping, of course, that they'd have hits on their hands.


    I've heard it mentioned that Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince was pushed back from November 2008 to July 2009 because of finishing touches in post-production, but I wonder if it's because Warner Bros didn't necessarily need another box office hit in 2008 after The Dark Knight provided such a fantastic bottom line for their fiscal year. 2009 was shaping up to be bleak, thanks not only to the writer's strike but the recession as well, so why not push back a surefire box office hit like HP so that this year wouldn't like a total loss compared to 2008?

    @FiorenzaDampt: Yeah, both Potter and Trek were pushed back from late 2008 to summer 2009. And I bet you're right that was a factor with some of these movies. Avatar was supposed to be a summer 2009 film too.

    @FiorenzaDampt:
    The official statement was that they had an opening in the summer lineup, which would be a more profitable time for a big blockbuster movie to premiere than November.
