	Blade Runner
		The science fiction film has been described as being like ‘a shared dream...a mythic representation of universal concerns and fears’, suggesting that the narrative of many science fiction films follow patterns that audiences are familiar with based on ancient myths and legends found in cultures and societies all over the world.
		Film Noir is the name now given to a group of films made in Hollywood in the 1940s and 1950s.
		Film noir is also associated with an urban context, cities and low life areas such as bars, nightclubs, motels and back streets in the dark.

	Blade (film) - Marvel Universe - A Wikia wiki
		Thus, Blade was born as a dhampir, a human with vampire genes.
		Blade arms himself for a raid on Frost's base, taking along with him specially-designed pneumatic syringes loaded with EDTA (normally used as a blood thinner to clear blood clots in the heart, which has a highly volatile reaction to vampire blood).
		Blade refuses, because "curing" him of his need for blood would also remove his Daywalker powers and he would be unable to hunt vampires, and requests for her to make him a better serum, reminding her that "there's still a war going on".

	Blade film review In Film Australia
		Blade revolves around the idea that vampires have inhabited the earth for centuries, concealing themselves and remaining unknown to the rest of the human world.
		At the beginning of the film, we learn that a pregnant woman has been bitten by a vampire, and supposedly dies, while having her baby removed by incision.
		Perhaps the reason that Blade surprisingly leaves a lasting impression on the viewer is that it masks its absurd plot with such overdone action that we do not once consider the story behind it.

	Blade Runner (1982)
		Blade Runner (1982), rising director Ridley Scott's follow-up to his hit Alien (1979), is one of the most popular and influential science-fiction films of all time - and it has become an enduring cult classic favorite.
		The film mixed in some western genre elements as well, and is thematically similar to the story in High Noon (1952) of a lone marshal facing four western outlaws.
		The film is set in the industrial wasteland of Los Angeles in the year 2019, on an Earth that is in physical and psychological decay - without a trace of nature.

	Blade: Trinity - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Blade: Trinity is a 2004 film, written and directed by David S. Goyer, who also wrote the screenplays to the first two Blade movies.
		The ending is ambiguous as to whether Blade retains his humanity or gives in to his vampiric thirst, thus becoming the new vampire messiah as Drake predicted.
		Blade's traditional serum injections were dropped for this film in favor of a serum inhaler.

	Blade CP Repair - Maintenance Manual - Main Rotor - Blades
		A blade strike can also cause the trailing edge of the main rotor blade to contact the Blade Grip (037) resulting in a sharp dent at the point of contact.
		I was able to use wood glue to repair the blades after removing the plastic film from the damaged areas.
		If the Main Blade Grips were removed and reinstalled ensure that the grips are installed correctly by observing the location of the nut-capturing indent on the blade grips.

	Blade (1998)
		Snipes' Blade is every bit as complex and Keanu Reeves' Neo, with layers of conflict and subtlety which elevate Blade to a higher level of suspense and generate greater personal investment for the viewer.
		Blade's very existence is driven by his craving for vengeance upon the vampire who bit his mother and changed the course of his life forever.
		Blade and Whistler are tracking an ambitious vampire named Deacon Frost (Stephen Dorff) whose plans to reincarnate himself as a vampire god of legend threaten not only the human race but the many leagues of vampires who have learned to live off of mankind without calling attention to themselves.

	Blade
		From the silent days of film up to today, audiences seem to be enthralled by these tales of the undead that stalk the living, feeding upon their blood.
		Blade meets up with a young hematologist Karen (N'Bushe Wright), bitten by one of Frost’s henchmen, and he takes her into his lair to see if he can cure her of the virus responsible for vampirism.
		The lighting in this film is moody and surrounds the viewer in an atmosphere of dread.

	Blade 2 film review
		Blade rescues his good friend (staking a few motorcycle-screeching bloodsuckers into the bargain), only to learn that the nightcrawlers are the least of his worries.
		Blade and his mentor are uneasy about aligning themselves with their former enemy, but it seems to be the only way to defeat The Reapers.
		Blade brings along brilliant young inventor Scud to give him the technological edge, but it quickly transpires that the Bloodpack will need much more than state-of-the-art weaponry to wipe out the thousands of Reapers swarming beneath the city streets.

	Blade Movie Review by Anthony Leong
		Blade is also a half-breed, created when his pregnant mother was bitten by a vampire.
		Though it is policy for Blade to put the bitten out of their misery, he hesitates, and rescues her instead, even though she may eventually transform and turn on him.
		Furthermore, "Blade" briefly associates Blade and Jenson's respective conditions with cancer, but this powerful allegorical reference is quickly dropped and forgotten.

	CineGeek
		Blade, was always a secondary character in the Spider-Man books for me. I don't know much about him outside of his appearances in those books.
		After the first film we cared about Blade, we felt bad for him and Whistler for their loss, and we sympathized with them in their fight to save the world.
		The ending of the film especially, is fantastic and right back to what Blade has been all about and Wesley plays Blade with the same perfect flare that we've all come to expect.

	DVD Review:Blade
		Blade, who was born right after his mother was bitten, is half human, half vampire.
		Although this film is on the negative side in terms of this review, it's still the most successful comic book adaptation or genre film that I've seen in a while, with only "The Crow" being the better genre film in memory.
		In fact, "Blade" was written by the same scripter that wrote "Dark City"."City", the film that came out early this year about a race of alien beings who watched over a group of humans on a far-off planet, wasn't terribly successful, but became a cult hit based on the strength of it's visuals and story.

	Blade: Trinity
		A genuinely bad film, Blade: Trinity gains a little currency by banking on some of the hot topics in our cultural diaspora (fls vs. whites, rich vs. poor, privileged vs. ghettoized) as well as sporting a pretty heady fascination with progeny and parentage.
		Blade (Snipes) is still fighting vampires with Whistler (Kris Kristofferson, approximating a chewed piece of beef jerky), his trusty Q, by his side.
		Blade: Trinity is an orphaned project: abandoned by Del Toro once Hellboy got the go-ahead (and compare Hellboy to Blade: Trinity for a little perspective), now abandoned by the man, Snipes, most responsible for the unnatural life of his Wayfarer spawn.

	Rep-Detect Division: Is Blade Runner film noir? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		French film critics were the first ones to use the term film noir about American movies, which probably has contributed to the confusion.
		The plot in Blade Runner has classic film noir components: the hero is assigned a mission of proportions he cannot really imagine, he meets a dangerous woman and falls in love with her and finally he realises he has been deceived by powerful people.
		To me it's entirely logical, particularly when you are doing a film noir, you may as well go right through with that theme, and the central character could in fact be what he is chasing...

	Top Box Office Movies - Blade 2
		As seen in his prior films such as ‘Cronos’ and his first Studio film ‘Mimic’, Director Del Toro seems to want to reinvent the Vampire Slayer and creates a soup of genres that does not satiate the excitement level created in the first film.
		The film has Blade leading a pack of Vampires that have been trained to capture the very man they are being lead by.
		What is admirable about the film is the fact that Director Del Toro attempts at reinventing the Blade character and enjoys a healthy does of suspense and horror in the film.

		Goofs: Revealing mistakes: The opening scroll suggests that the Blade Runner unit was formed as a reaction to the Nexus 6 replicants, while in the movie itself it is clear that the Blade Runners like Deckard precede the development of the Nexus 6.
		This truly is a film that demands subsequent discussion and its ambiguous ending leave a haunting and eerie feeling.
		In spite of a rich glaze of science fiction and futurism coating this adventure, there are distinct film noir elements present – primarily in the bluish haze that the film is seen through and its gritty urban atmosphere.

	BRmovie.com - The Home of Blade Runner (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		Rebecca Solnit writes in the L.A. Times about the current celebrations (of rebirth rather than the tragedy) and in her article hopes that the films of 20 years ago, (including BRand Terminator), that looked to a post-apocalyptic world show that the apocalypse happened and is now past and we grew through it.
		Sir Ridley Scott is one of the many taking up film projects that link in some way to terrorism, Iraq, soldier's stories, etc. Monsters and Critics looks at the number of films now slated that unusually take up stories related to a war that is still ongoing.
		A horror film that has a slow initial reaction, but becomes significant over time as people slowly realise how brilliant it is? Well that is what is written about 'Lost Souls' at blogcritics.com.

	Blade (film) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Whilst Blade heads out to fetch the ingredients for his serum, Frost abducts Dr. Jenson from the lair and badly beats Whistler, leaving Quinn and the rest of his crew to finish him off.
		Blade may have the enhanced strength, dexterity and senses of a vampire, while not being vulnerable to sunlight, silver, garlic, or EDTA, but he does have a lust for blood which he tries to suppress using a special serum and a slight sensitivity to sunlight that causes him to wear sunglasses.
		Blade is stoical and a man of few words.

	Blade: Trinity
		When Blade has been rescued by Abigail and Hannibal and the 3 of them are approaching the hideout, notice in Abigail's back quiver there is one arrow left, yet in the next shot when they're walking up the stairs she has two.
		Jessica Biel, who joins the series as Whistler's daughter Abigail, one of the chief members of the Nightstalkers, was attracted to the project because she was a big fan of the original Blade and found the new developments in the storyline intriguing.
		The site of the final apocalyptic battle between Blade, Abigail, her Nightstalker team and the vampires, the Phoenix Tower set is a soaring four-story structure that is 50 feet high and 180 ft long.

	Amazon.com: Blade: Original Motion Picture Score: Music: Mark Isham (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		With "Blade", Mark Isham has created a score that is more along the lines of "Kiss the Girls" than of a lot of his recent action/suspense scores, like "Timecop" and "The Net".
		When you turn on "Blade" in your CD player, you'll be catapulted right into the complications of Blade's birth suffered by his mother (right before the first dance club song plays) and then into a gunfight appearing later in the film in the vampire temple (they don't always sequence the tracks chronologically).
		My favorite parts of this album are probably toward the end, where we hear almost all of the score involving the big vampire ritual in the temple---right before Blade shows up for the final confrontation and puts a stop to Donal Logue and his goonies, once and for all.

	UGO.com Film/TV - Blade: Trinity Review
		So, as we all know, vampire exterminator Blade (Wesley Snipes), AKA The Daywalker, trounced the blood god, La Magra, then pummeled the Reapers and was looking to round out his repertoire of saving us, the ignorant and thankless human species, from them, the power-hungry human-snacking children of the night.
		Of their ancestor, the vampires of today desire two things: that he help them destroy Blade and that he help them overcome their lethal intolerance to sunlight, for Dracula too is a Daywalker.
		Confronted with the veritable PR campaign against his student, Whistler convinces Blade to accept outside help in the form of the Nightstalkers, a highly trained group of humans bent on beating the snot out of all bloodsuckers.

	Film Review: Blade II: Lights, Horror, Action!
		In this story, shot entirely amid decaying, industrial areas of the Czech Republic, Blade is still battling the Vampire Nation, which wants to rule the world and use humans for food.
		But Blade is persuaded to join forces with this "nation" to help them fight a new breed of vampires suffering from a virus that gives them super strength, allows them to infect other vampires and is, ultimately, deadly.
		Toward the end, when Blade has kicked the butt of one of the bad guys, Whistler tosses him something we assume to be a weapon to continue the fight.

	Blade Runner - The Director's Cut
		Director Ridley Scott's 1982 film Blade Runner is arguably the most famous and influential science fiction film ever made.
		This film is rendered superior by the director's cut, thanks to the excising of extraneous narration and the grim yet more appropriate ending.
		The film is great on every level: the poignant screenplay about man's futile quest for immortality; Scott's tremendous direction; the incredible, futuristic sets designed by Lawrence G. Paull, Syd Mead and others; the phenomenal special effects.

	Comics2Film - Goyer Talks Blade 3 and More!
		Epstein told Goyer that he believed with Stephen Norrington directing, Nicholas Cage starring, and Goyer’s script that the Ghost Rider film had potential to be better than the first Blade film (C2F has previously reported that Norrington, Cage, and Goyer are no longer attached to the Ghost Rider film).
		The film Venom was true to the character’s roots and not exactly a hero.
		The film was one of many Goyer scripts that turned out far from how he envisioned it.
