Bad movie night, and me vs. the DVD

triadruid and I went to see Blade Trinity tonight. kittenpants wanted no part of it. It was not as bad as we'd feared. It was definitely better than Blade II, but not as good as the first one. You do the math. And you know, I'd heard that there was going to be a Nightstalkers movie. I just didn't realize this was going to be it. I was a little disappointed in that, but hey. It happens. Maybe they'll skip Nightstalkers and move on to Michael Morbius, who is really my favorite comic book character of all time anyway.

The important things though, (as the case often is) were the previews. One film about super-action anti-hero vs. the US government (XXX: State of the Union), one about good cops and criminals vs. corrupt cops (Assault on Precinct 13). Interesting timing on those, politically and culturally speaking.

Also, Constantine. I think I might have to go. Funny, though, I seem to remember Constantine being British. It's been a long time between me and a comic book though, and I was unable to recall the title he appeared in (confusing Hellblazer with Hellboy), so I might not be an authority, properly speaking.

In home entertainment news, I fixed my DVD-ROM so that in theory, it's now region-free. And why? What does this mean? Well, apparently this means I can now order DVDs of Count Duckula from the UK. That's what it means. My all-time favorite cartoon, simply for this scene:
( In the Temple of Ra, from the episode 'No Sax Please, We're Egyptian'. )

Also, a favor

Or, alternately, a holiday request.

Could someone make me a userpic that denotes being confused? I'm fresh out of creative today.
Thanks, love you.
