I love Blood+. It's one of the few takes on vampires that I genuinely like.
i know, right? it's a very different take on it, i love it. =3
as far as the soundtrack... well, i've never been much into instrumental music but... ah, it's hans zimmer so HELLZ YEAH I WANT THEM. xD that would be lovely!
Not that it's without its flaws. The pacing is atrocious, it relies too much on melodrama, and the directors won't stop crippling Saya at every turn because they don't want her to be too powerful. But still.
oh, i know. i've watched the first eight episodes by now and it already feels like they're dragging things waaaay too much, and characters seem to be making stupid decisions left and right. i think i'm more into it for the plot than for the characters, to be honest. but i find the melodrama palatable, though-- and believe you me, i usually have no tolerance for melodrama. ^^;;; of course, i haven't gotten to the worst part yet, so we'll see... =P
thank you! you're awesome. *glomps, then downloads*
well, i guess it depends on what you're looking for. i usually just buy movies because i like watching them over and over and over again, so it's better to get the DVD than to wait for them to air on TV =P i usually just watch the extra features once and then never bother again. ^^;;;
if you're in it for the extra stuff, there's not much for you in the DVD. a few of the deleted scenes, but not all of them-- i think the full list of deleted scenes is only in the blu-ray. there's also a "bringing the book to life" featurette which i really liked (basically a long interview with rick riordan on the set of the movie, along with comments from some of the actors and chris columbus), and then there are the trailers, i think-- can't really remember right now 'cause i skipped those.^^;;
long story short, for me it was a great buy because i KNOW i'm going to give it a lot of use, but it really depends on what you really want out of it.
glad i can entertain you with my craziness, nitya. =P
to be honest, i barely survived the first "bella" part. by the very end of it her insecurities had gotten so repetitive that i wasn't even sure if i should laugh or... well, a little of it i can take, 'cause i find it funny, but i think i was closer to wanting to punch her by that point. ^^;;; oi, i'm so violent. >.<
anyway, thankfully jacob's more than made up for it by now. xD definitely fun. smeyer should've started writing from jacob's PoV a LONG time ago, she's actually pretty good at it.

And Jacob was the best part of BD, that's all I have to say!

She really should write more from Jake's POV. He's what makes the whole dang series bearable/readable!
