Not sure who the actors are. Effects seem 'ok', (at least for a TV show). Plot? Camera shots are all close-up. Eh.

I beg to differ, Blade one was a kick ass movieand the sequel was fun.
But to be honest, I have not yet seen Blade III....

Blade was a good action adventure film.
Blade 2 was an OK action adventure film.
Blade 3 sucked even as an action adventure film.
P.S. Was it just me, or did they pick an actress who looked a heck of a lot like Jessica Biel?

I unfortunetly i saw all three (only payed to see the first one, rest were on tv), the degrees of sucking was only compounded with each new movie. I give most movies the benefit of the doubt and will at least watch them before i comment. But personally speaking i thought, they all sucked.
Why:
- Acting sucked.
- Story was pretty lame.
- and could the final scene from the first one be any lamer, i think not. oh wait yes it can forgot about 2 and 3. hahahaha.
If a movie doesn't suck you in within the first 15 mins. It's hard to ever really get into it.
I will give in a bit by saying that suck and totally lame maybe a bit harsh considering how much garbage comes out of hollywood.

Hmmm... You don't have to like what others do. Lords knows there are a ton of movies some people like that I think are plain silly
BUT - You really show poor taste when the implication you leave is that they are some how less because they liked a movie you did not.
P.S.
Hollywood makes tons of movies. A lot are bad. A lot are good. Why the special hatred just for Hollywood? Please name any location which produces a lot of movies and does not also produce a lot of garbage? Where is this mythical place, so that I may visit and expirence all it's wonderous visions?

slaughters you are totally over reacting. The comment was an opinion with a question, clearly any opinion someone else gives that doesn't conform to your opinion is an insult. All i was imply was that "I" thought the movie sucked and hoped maybe someone can explain why the tv show would be any better than the movie, going from big budget to probably a small budget in comparison. Don't over read ppls messages. Maybe i forgot to add a "?", which would have been a bit more clear.
P.S I think Blade I II and III suck.

Alot's lost when movies go to the small screen. For some reason this reminds me of Mortal Kombat the TV series which was how you say, terrible. As much as the creators try to recreate that cinematic feel on tv with a very small budget, it most of the time ends up being pretty bad.
Yay, british guy feeling up a tied up girl.. no doubt that'll attract viewers...

Blade 1 and 2 were great action flicks, Blade 3 was aweful on any measure. Unfortunately when B3 came out everyone said "This just looks like a marketting gimmic, bet the TV series is round the corner". And they were right.

I only saw Blade 1 last summer and I think it was a transcendently defining moment in my life...
Okay, so not exactly, but it definitely was a fun movie to watch with a bunch of friends and laugh our selves silly.

My ex girlfriend is obsessed with Blade, and she's not even goth. She made me watch Blade 2 (fun) and Blade 3 (eye scratchingly horrible).
TV series, who knows, might be fun. Frankly I think someone should break David Goyer's wrists before he writes again. Hell, the combined might of Christopher Nolan and every good Batman comic for the past 20 years were barely able to keep him from ruining Batman Begins...

I liked Batman Begins too! But it was in spite of Goyer, not because of him. His ham-fisted writing nearly crippled that movie. And I am fairly certain he was the one behind the Bat-SUV, which was the one major sour note for that movie -- well, that and the "I won't kill, but I may put you in a situation where it is very likely you will die. Oh, and I will run over innocent cops with my Bat-SUV. They can live through that, right?"

Blade was a good action adventure film.
Blade 2 was an OK action adventure film.
Blade 3 sucked even as an action adventure film.
'Blade 3 sucked' is a good solid statement for a vampire flick. :)
There's always one person who wants to make some movie funnier than necessary.
This person needs to be shot.

I'm not saying vampire movies can't be funny. I'm just saying you don't have to put
a sarcastic punchline in every damn scene. In my opinion, that makes a movie suck harder.
Although, for a vampire movie, that sounds like a compliment. :)

EDIT: Indeed, I think Blade 1&2 are great. 3rd made me lose the significant passion I had about 'em

I enjoyed Blade and Blade 2. They had the moves and attitude down solid. I haven't seen Blade 3 and from reviews I've read it's the worst of the trilogy. I might just borrow it from someone and watch it just to complete the set.
As for the TV series, I've seen the clip and although the main actor tries hard to impersonate Wesley Snipe, I feel he just doesn't have that X factor. He looks too big (I liked the lean mean fighting machine that Snipes portrayed in the movies) and his delivery seems quite forced. It's like he's trying too hard. And without the kick-ass Whistler, the coolness of the show drops a few levels.
I might just give it a peek if/when it comes around. Who knows, it might just turn out to be pretty interesting in its own right. It has that element of vampire clans like that pretty decent TV series Kindred:The Embraced (itself based on the Vampire:The Masquerade game) that could turn out well. We'll just have to wait and see eh?

Gotta agree with Bonedaddy in regards to David Goyer.
Goyer is a complete mess in regards to writing, this is the sort of screenwriter that a producer must keep on a very short chain. If any of you may remember, while Blade 3 was in production, there was a very public war happening between Wesley Snipes and David Goyer, a war which also erupted on the set of the film in a near scuffle.
The war between Snipes and Goyer began with a disagreement over the new story direction in Blade 3 involving the contrived inclusion of the Beil and Ryan Reynolds characters.
Snipes was angered by Goyer's insidious attempt to Hijack the production away from him.
Its very clear that the studio and Goyer had hopes of dissolving Blade/Snipes out of future stories and injecting a more WB/MTV element in possible future Teen-vamp-crap movies.
The studio's hopes were banking on the less than stellar box office appeal of Jessica Beil(who seems to be at home with box office kryptonite(stealth,Texas Chainsaw).
IMO Its all too apparent when agents and studios want to push the careers of actors over creative content and quality which any film needs.
When Snipes first developed Blade through his production company, a property btw that no studio wanted, his biggest mistake was giving away too much creative control, once Blade became a big hit, the studio had the power to change and destroy it like everything else they touch. A perfect example of creative control is Frank Miller's deal with Robert Rodriguez on Sin City, and more famously The Lucas Deal with Fox on his first Star Wars film and all that followed. Independenceis the only way to insure a film's integrity.

Then again, maybe the whole Buffy thing will happen again.... you know, a "vampire killer TV" show based on a "vampire killer movie" that actually ends up being more popular than the original movie... than again, probably not.
