Blade Trinity = One Big Apple Commercial

[bubbajim]

If there is one movie that contains the most obvious product placement for Apple it would be this movie. The movie itself was horrible, but for advertising old lcd Apple displays, G5s, and iPods this movie did a good job of that. I mean what can be better than a vampire killer that downloads tracks using iTunes and listens to her iPod while slaying the bad guys?

Even superheroes need entertainment, especially the undead ones. what would eternity be without entertainment

good thinkin', admiral.

well, if the movie's bad, i guess it's not really _good_ advertising for apple.

Well let's just say the movie did not out-shine the previous releases. I'm a Blade fan and enjoy the movie series quite a bit, but this one was a disappointment.

When you see product placement in movies, they tend to be minor and they don't distract your attention from the movie. In this case they might as well handed out Apple pamplets with each movie ticket stub.

Don't get me wrong, the movie has good fighting sequences and all. I wouldn't want to push my opinion to others and expect all to believe me. There are a lot worse things you can do with your time than see this flick. Just get ready to have some wine with this movie's cheesy dialog.

It would be cool though... Music to die by. Blade playing music over the loudspeakers of an abandoned warehouse to deafening levels whilst running through a corridor slicin' and dicin' the bad guys.
