Blade II Title Analysis


Blade II is a sequel of the film, 'Blade', based on the Marvel comic character of the same name. The movies themselves are known for their action & gore as the story is based around vampires, which is usually followed by violence.

The title sequence of Blade II is a series of dark, gritty shots, reflecting the atmosphere of the film itself. The speech in the title sequence is Blade himself telling us his background. Within the shots themselves, they correspond to whatever Blade is talking about, for example, when he speaks about his birth, the shot will show a clip where blade is being born.

When it comes to the titles themselves, there is not much of them as they are kept short, however they do explain what they need to, for example, who produced the film (New line Cinema in association with Imaginary Forces) but there is no mention of cast. The font of the titles is a red, bloodlike font, obviously reflecting the vampire theme of the film.
