      EVOLUTION gives a taste of lore, 3rd film goes back in time to reveal lycan origins. 4th one was ok & has biggest lycan I've ever seen, 5th one I thought was a great ending film however it kinda set up the ending for one more...

    Some added information that answers some of the question you had watching this and the first movie: [No Spoilers]
    1: Corvinus had 3 sons, one bitten by Bat, Marcus, one bitten by wolf, Willaim and one that lived a human life.
    2: All 3 blood lines had the potential to become hybrids, but no one knew that until it was discovered in the 1st movie
    3: Michael Corvin, Selenes love intrest, was the decendent of the Human Corvinus blood line, and first hybrid.
    4: Michael looks more like a wolf, because he was a Lycan first, then infected with Vampire blood.
    5: In the first move the Lycan scientist is brought before Victor, and victor kills him with 1 punch, in the Elder Crypt of the coven.
    6: That Lycan's blood seeped through the floor of the Crypt and was the blood that re-awoken Marcus.
    7: Marcus became a hybrid when he was infected by that Lycans blood, until then he was just a normal vampire
    8: Marcus in his hybrid form looks more bat like than Michael, because he was a vampire first, then a Lycan
    9: When Marcus turned Victor, he feared that Victor would betray him, because he was a ruthless tyrant, so he lied to him and told him that if he died, all of his blood line, including victor, would also die. Victor didn't necissarily believe him 100%, but wouldn't take the gamble.
    10: Similarly Victor believed that if he killed William, all of the lycans would die, and he saw them as usefull tools to protect vampires during the day. Plus he didn't want to anger Marcus unnecissarily as, in theory, Marcus was slightly more powerful than Victor 1 on 1.
    11: Originally Lycans were unable to turn back into humans, but in the first movie they mentioned that at some point that changed and the older Lycans developed the ability to turn at will
    I could say more, if you can't tell i am a massive fan of the franchise, but i'll leave it there

    The Corvinus blood is special. And Alexander passed that blood to his children. The blood is how when William was bit by a wolf he made werewolves. Then eventually werewolves were able to change back and forth, and the ones who could shift became Lycans.
    The blood is how when Marcus was bit by a bat he made vampires. But he lied to Victor about his death ending their existence as a way to keep Victor in check and protect himself and his brother. It's also why Marcus turned into a hybrid when woken up with Lycan blood (rather than dying like someone else would).
    The blood is why Michael could survive being bit by Lycan and vampire because he is a descendant of Alexander Corvinus' human child. And now the blood has been passed on to Selene which makes her more than her kin

    Alexander corvinas was the first immortal because he survived a deadly disease that wiped out his entire village. And it molded and changed him so that he would be the first immortal. And then once his sons got bitten by a bat and a Wolf that transformed into a vampire and warewolf. And anyone who carries the corvenis bloodline like Michael or Marcus can be turned into a hybrid. Even William, he just never got turned into hybrid. And Marcus was turned into a hybrid. Because the blood he drank while he was sleeping was a lycans blood.

      @Just_A_Typical_Person No. As awesome as she is though no. Because she is not a descendant of Alexander corvinas. But since she drank his blood before he died she became the first vampire that could walk in the light. Because of his blood, he is the original immortal his blood is special even though he is not a vampire or a lycan. It made her stronger and faster and able to take the sun.

    So Marcus has wings because he is the first vampire to become a hybrid through werewolf blood. Since he was bitten by bat first he developed wings as his second mutation while also now being immune to sunlight and and silver plus having even more strength. Micheal was a werewolf first so he developed more wolf like features while retaining the vampire traits doubly stronger than both vamp and wolf with no weakness to silver or sunlight.

    • @LetsGetitBoah

      @houseofaction Год назад +2

      no where does it say he developed the wings as a secondary mutation after drinking he werewolf blood nor did it ever say he couldn't walk in the daylight. logically he should have been able to already because he was born with the Corvenus strain within himself.

    • @CharlesH-t9r
      @CharlesH-t9r Год назад

      I believe it was mentioned that Marcus had more control over his vampire bat transformation as he was found by his dad and younger brother and healed his wound and took care of him after he was bitten by a vampire bat (which was shown in this movie)
      And William was stuck out in the frozen woods after he was bitten by a gray wolf and due to his starvation, sickness and delirium he snapped and fully gave into the full transformation and couldn't turn back
      At least that's what I gathered from all the lore I've read over the years

    It's explained in the first movie how hybrids are stronger than both. Hybrids have the same strengths as each but none of the others weaknesses. You have to remember they get stronger as they age, Michael was only just turned days before so he has no real understanding of his abilities yet. He still healed rather quickly considering the type of injury he had as as I stated he's like a newborn of a few weeks old learning his new found abilities. He'll get stronger with age and time as all vampires and lycans do as they age. The next one is one of my favorites in the series.

      you are only partially correct. while its true a hybrid has the strenght of both species. its not true they are actually STRONGER.
      they have advantages but not actual strength above others.
      contrary to what you claimed lycans do not get stronger with age. they are just animalistic so they have a little bit more brute strength but as we have seen vampires definitely are stronger because they have superior control.
      viktor who was a frail old man when he became a vampire who also still moved as if he was somewhat frail was still stronger than Raze who was by far the 2nd strongest lycan in history(up until that point) outside of William he casually killed Raze with 1 hand
      only the vampire side of Michael would have gotten stronger with age(they literally say this on the DVD commentary)
      when it comes to hybrid form they also have claws and enhanced regeneration
      despite this Corvinus strain Selene is STILL WAY MORE POWERFUL THAN MICHAEL or even EVE.

    Interesting story with the love scene. At the time, Kate was married to the director and he insisted that they needed more lust in the scene so he kept pushing them for more…Scott said it was incredibly awkward.

    See now this is why I'm convinced that vampires are just as bad as, if not worse than humans when it comes to the issue of integrity. Werewolves on the other hand would never betray their own kin, let alone their own respective pack. Selene is of course a notable exception, because she harbours such a high measure of honour which makes her a rarity amongst her kind. In addition to being a warrior of high renown, which every other vampire would be keen to exploit for their own leverage.

      thats a msunderstanding Alexander was cleaning up their mess but its not what kept them a secret
      the vampires themselves kept to the shadows
      its the lycans that let it slip of the vampire and lycans existence as a means to wipe out the majority of vampires

    Alexander was basically Immortal, making Selene basically the same.
    And Rise of the Lycans was made next but was not made to be the third installment ,its a prequel making it the first canonically in the series... Awakening is the next one canonically, then Blood Wars. This is all and all and great series loving that you guys are getting into it.
    Oh and it is not that Danny McBride according to internet sources. Its screenwriter Danny Flynn McBride he was one of the soliders of Alex in this movie.

    • @houseofaction

      all of them are immortal he was just a different type of Immortal
      alexander was born with a recessive genetic anomaly A triple-celled platelet... which holds unspeakable power. according to singe when inherited in its active form, gives its carrier immortality and superhuman strength, while additionally possessing the capability for another stage of mutation when subjected to gene-fusion.
      when Marcus and William were bit by the bat and the rabid wolf they had undergone gene-fusion which caused them to further mutate into a vampire and a werewolf.
      essentially what this means is that Selene now harbors the original strain of the virus plus the mutated form that is the vampirism. since she now has the corvinus strain she has a strain of the virus that can undergo mutation if forced into a state of gene-fusion so in theory she could consume the blood of other creatures and undergo mutation. the possiblities are endless like what if she had consumed marcus's blood she may have undergon a mutation to get bat wings. what if she got bit by a rabid eagle would she gain eagle wings? etc
      also all of them are canon.
      what you mean is chronoligical
      and installment doesn't mean a sequel it just means an installment whether its a sequel or a prequel

    I'm pretty sure why the vampire race didn't end was because Selene drank Alexander's blood which practically made her the bloodline to the entire vampire race if I'm mistake. I'm thankful because it made her stronger and faster making her have an elder like power maybe even powerful than that since she is a day walker. (I don't know why I'm commenting on old videos if you guy's already know everything lol)

    The flashing grenades are meant to be fuel air bombs otherwise known as thermobaric explosives it disperses aerosolised fuel into the air before the spark ignites it. When the fuel is dispersed properly the fire burns faster than the speed of sound causing the largest known non nuclear explosions with effects similar to nukes but without the radiation or even the meed for expensive rare materials. Even basic flower properly dispersed can provide enough fuel for the reaction. It's seriously terrifying just how simple and dangerous it is. Just some basic fuel a compressed gas tank and an ignition source and you have a device that makes WWII bombs look like fireworks.

    @peterseaboldt1250 Год назад +3

    My personal theory regarding Markus' ability to transform is because he consumed Lycan blood while still in hibernation. Because of his close relation to the first immortal Alexander Corvinus, Markus was able to incorporate the small amount of Lycan DNA into his gene structure. Technically, this makes Markus a hybrid like Michael, but Michael is an even Vampire/Lycan mix, while Markus is 99% Vampire and 1% Lycan.

    • @shania991
      @shania991 Год назад +1

      yes i think at first he just had wings because he was bitten by a bat but yes your correct he does have some lycan in his blood making him stronger and causes his transformation how lycans transform

    • @houseofaction
      @houseofaction Год назад

      your personal theory is wrong in the story of Alexander Corvinus it is stated that he was born with a recessive genetic anomaly now dubbed the Corvinus strain, in its activated form it gives the carrier immortality and super strength, when he survived the plague that ravaged his village he found out he had this genetic anomaly he later had 3 sons, Twins marcus and william who inherited his genetic anomaly, and a 3rd un named son who inherited the anomaly in its inactive form, later on Marcus was bit by a bat and william bit by a rabid wolf, when this occured its secondary function kicked in, the Corvinus strain additionally possesses the capability for another stage of of mutation when subjected to gene-fusion, essentially what this means is because marcus and william were born with the activated form of their fathers genetic anomaly they were capable of undergoing a secondary mutation because of the fusion of there genes with the animal that bit them. now both had evolved into superior forms but because the Corvinus strain allows for further mutation when subjected to gene-fusion this meant that when Marcus consumed a lycans blood it fused with his already existing vampire strain turning him into a hybrid
      essentially this means that anyone who has the Corvinus strain can undergo further mutation if exposed to the DNA of any other species INCLUDING SELENE

    To answer the question at the end, Rise of the Lycans is the 3rd movie in the franchise but also serves as a prequel, Awakening is the 4th movie but is a continuation from this movie which is likely why you were being recommended Awakening instead of Rise of the Lycans.
    I also agree with Roxy, if you're going to do a Vampire show or movie and you want it done right it needs to be R-rated. Hopefully Marvel realizes that for the Mahershala Ali Blade movie and makes it R-rated.

  • @dj_daem0n
    @dj_daem0n Год назад +3

    Next film is RISE OF THE LYCANS which is a prequel. It's the story of Michael Sheen's Lucian and how the war first began. If you liked these first two movies, and you loved watching vampires fight in armor with swords.. you're going to love part 3. The ones following the trilogy are hoooooorrible though. If someone wants you to watch those i'd question my friendship with them.
    Also there were MULTIPLE soundtracks released that were connected to the UNDERWORLD movies. None of the damn songs were in the movies, but it was exactly the kind of music you two were describing that should have been needle-dropped into the film.

    I love Underworld and I think this was a great sequel in almost every way. I think some of the lore is a little clunky, but as you point out, they rode a fine line of taking themselves seriously while also delivering some good B-movie action and it works. The better CGI and more ambitious action sequences certainly help, but they're not really what sold me on the movie, it's the performances and the direction. The shot you picked for the thumbnail is so memorable that it's burned into my brain, yet it's only a 5 seconds or whatever scene, but that's what I think a vampire intimidating a human should look like and Kate sells it perfectly.
    The emotional resonance of the ending is something you wouldn't expect in a B-movie about vampires and werewolves and lots of gunfights and leather outfits, but it's earned and makes sense, and, again, it works because they have Kate Beckinsale to actually make you buy into it.

    12:38 Marcus was turned into a hybrid at the end of the first movie when the Lycan killed by Victor bled into Marcus's resting place. This caused Marcus to unintentionally drink lycan blood while he was asleep resulting in the transformation that gave him blue skin like Michael as well as wings.

    The whole thing about killing the original killing those they've turned has always been part of vampire mythology. It's featured prominently in all the old Hammer films, killing Dracula in those films frees those he's bitten, its been amalgamated into lycanthrope myth too just as silver being harmful is part of both. Silver, like garlic, has antiseptic properties and was considered a 'pure' metal hence why it harms the 'impure' creatures of the night. Mirrors used to be backed by silver too so that goes to explain why traditionally you couldn't see a vampires reflection in them.
