Vampire Cage Match, Round 3: Underworld's Selene vs. Blade
In celebration of New Moon's opening we are going to explore your favorite movie & TV vampires and put them head-to-head (or fang to fang). Feel free to chime in with your thoughts as we match up two different bloodsuckers every day this week.
ROUND THREE: SELENE VS. BLADE
Two bloodsucking butt-kickers who have serious obsessions with tight leather and new weapon technology.
WHO?: Selene (Kate Beckinsale), from the Underworld movies, was turned by the vampire who slayed her family. She is a Death Dealer who fights the Lycan (werewolves) whom she believes are responsible for the death of her family. Blade (Wesley Snipes), from the Blade Trilogy, is half-vampire, half-human, due to his mother being bitten by a vampire while she was pregnant with him. Referred to as “daywalker,” he doles out vengeance on the vampire community in general for making him what he is.
UN-UNDEAD SOULMATE: Michael (for Selene) ; Whistler & some damsels in distress (for Blade)
INSTEAD OF HUMANS, THEY DRINK FROM: Selene feeds on humans and stolen blood, Blade takes a special antibiotic to keep the vampire in him at bay.
PHYSICAL STRENGTHS: Selene has been trained to fight and kill Lycan, and has wicked skills with guns and crossbows. She is also small and quick. Blade has sheer size on his side and none of the usual vampire weaknesses. (garlic and daylight, for example.)
PHYSICAL WEAKNESSES: Selene’s size could become an issue. She’s quick, but tiny. Blade has a problem paying taxes the advantage of size, but that could make him slow. He is sometimes blinded by his own hatred of vampires and can charge without thinking about strategy.
WOOING: Selene is a hot vampire in skin-tight leather. ‘Nuff said. Blade has no game and doesn’t seem to want any.

This one is pretty close. However, Blade can go out during the day which puts him at a distinct advantage over Selene.
