Discuss which CBMs aged well over time.
In terms of style, Returns feels very much in its own universe. Batman 89 is a hybrid mashup of 1940s meets the 1980s which makes it less timeless.Batman Returns, definitely. Batman, not so well.
I watched Blade II a short while ago. Absolutely holds up.Have the Guillermo del Toro CBMs aged well? Hellboy and Blade 2?
Even though I haven't seen either of them in well over a decade, I think it's safe to say that the Hellboy movies have aged well enough since they mostly relied on practical effects.Have the Guillermo del Toro CBMs aged well? Hellboy and Blade 2?
Only the final battle hurts it in my eyes:Blade is still awesome.
Imo it’s better than 80% of the MCU. It’s overflowing in energy and inspiration, with Snipes at the top of his game. It really set the tone for the late 90s/early 00s, with a lot of movies later taking inspiration from it.Blade is still awesome.
Have to admit, I normally give the first Blade a pass these days. It has some great moments (esp the opening nightclub scene), but I find the second movie far better.Only the final battle hurts it in my eyes:
One of my first crushes (along with Holly Robinson on 21 Jumpstreet). Both are still beautifulHelen Slater was so pretty then .
Still is in IMO.
The film wasn't that good, but she certainly did have an earnestness, warmth, and sweetness about her as Kara/ Supergirl.
That is true, actually. I forgot about that! The fight between Blade and the Bloodpack is... not good!Blade 2 has some of the worst and most over-used digital doubles ever. If you cut those, the rest holds up very well, but they were dated like 6 months later.
Agree with thisDaredevil '03 Director's Cut. Definitely an underrated gem. Much darker than I was expecting...
