Well that's a new one...

OK, so, last night was a very exciting night for me. At least the pop culture nerd inside me who tends to this blog was very excited.

TNT has a series of made for TV movies. They star Noah Wyle, and they're ridiculously corny and the special effects suck, and they rip off Indiana Jones like it's nobody's business. These are The Librarian Movies. The Librarian: Quest for The Spear and The Librarian: Return To King Solomons Mines. I love these movies. They are everything that is good in entertainment, with the added bonus of Noah Wyle running around jungles and deserts all sweaty. Yum.

This new one The Librarian: Curse of The Judas Chalice. What is the Judas Chalice? Well, it turns out that the Judas Chalice is the yang to the Holy Grail's Yin. Yes, it's an evil grail. Process that for a moment. What does the evil grail do? Well, it doesn't bring eternal death, because you know that would be dumb...dumber than what it does at least. The evil grail brings dead vampires back to life and gives living vampires increased speed and strength.

Let me say that again...VAMPIRES! I'm a little sad that even the Librarian has been corrupted by Twilight-mania. But I was also very very excited to see what they did with it. Well, not a lot, actually. Except that Judas was the first Vampire, and then Flynn fell in love with a vampire, in New Orleans, obviously, because apparently vampires love Louisiana (Interview starts there, True Blood, um Jasper is from there.) and then they kill Dracula.

Yeah, I know it's sort of hard to explain and is actually pretty stupid, but its the third movie and if you know the characters it was fun. Flynn is a whole lot smoother than he used to be, but he's been doing the whole Librarian thing for like six years now.

Oh right and he killed Dracula and they totally set up more movies...SWEET!
