Lee Presson What if Blade is basically just the Lo Wang of the Marvel Universe?

Not to mention when he whips out his not-Batarang and mugs to the camera before throwing it. It's like, "Hey kids! Check this out."

I agree. Moments like that help you connect with a character as weird as that might sound. The viewers are meant to enjoy a moment like that, so when the hero enjoys it too, it's like you get to share the moment with the character, you're there with them in a way.

+ilyriandevil You're a misogynist it seems....

The reason why you call feminism a "poisonous ideology" is misogyny which ironically enough, toxic masculinity is the real poison here. This is how misogyny works unfortunately because if you're against feminism, then you automatically hate women along with it even if you're not aware of it and this has nothing to do with Mother/Father issues at all (although the only legitimate reason to have Daddy issues though if one had a Abusive one and plus he automatically benefits from Male Privilege) . Also misandry doesn't exist because misogyny in the other hand is institutionalized in our society which is why you can't be sexist towards men.

I think you have reality backwards and insideout by regurgitating already debunked myths while remaining ignorant of reality around you due to your own male privilege showing. But there's no point reasoning with sexists/misogynists like you which is why you believe in them.

Even if I did rebuttal you, it probably would be a waste of time because from my previous experiences handling people like you, you'll probably come up with something out of thin air with no evidence to back it up like you did recently. My only advice to you is either educate yourself or remain willfully ignorant which I have a feeling you choose the latter so I guess we're done here.

+ilyriandevil Fox: OK first off, I started this as a joke for one of my favorite reviewers. Not for a debate about being sexist. First off , people can be sexist both ways. Men are said to have to be strong and muscular and do sports etc. While women are said to be gentle creatures who are subservient to men and who must beautiful etc. These are could be considered the broadest of the sexist/ Sterotypes Both are sexist comments but the male one merely is accepted in society. People can still be sexist toward other genders, not just female. Second, what will fighting in a youtube comment section under a joke do for either argument? Three: I love both strong male and female characters, which many strong female characters are being shown the light many times now. Fourth: Also of you both are putting each other down because of gender, THAT'S BEING SEXIST. Not to mention both of you are both created from a similar amount of atomic elements and the only thing truly different about you both is a X and a Y chromosome. Or we could talk about how in the grand scheme of the universe, we all are on a spec of dust. In short, stop fighting and just enjoy the joke. If not, please continue on with this comment somewhere it could probably do something.

I don't see him like that and I am a rather racist The reason why people "hate" black Panter is because it came out during an era of PC pushing agendas

Or maybe it came out over 20 years ago, and Black panther was more fresh in people's minds.

Vision Bricks now that we have “access” to the multiverse, making any kind of movie fit in the overall MCU is easy. Not everything has to be inside earth 616 anymore. Dr.Strange and Wanda’s movement throughout the multiverse can even open up a (hopefully) separate X-Men universe; just to keep the larger story more manageable than the comics. You can ignore characters existing in the comics, but trying to explain why the movie Avengers don’t help against freaking vampires would be a tough sell.

@@cjwrench07 it doesn't matter man even in comics most characters are very separate. Just look at X-Men in general. Bad things happen all the time yet The Avengers even having Wolverine in the team don't give a s**h at all. Or look at Daredevil too.

Probably because Wesley snipes was being a drama queen during filming. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fsqHhJiFy5enm30.html

Haha thanks for the link. I think my favorite part was @ 5:20. He refused to open his eyes for the scene so they had to do it with CG? Seriously? And only communicating with the director via post-it notes.. I can't even imagine what it would be like to work with someone like that. I'm sure him and Ryan Reynolds are still best buddies...

so..... ironically the Blade series would've been at least 35% better if Blade was a different actor? That's a shame.

Plasma Octopus I really can’t believe that. Snipe’s is iconic for Blade, and it’s hard to imagine anyone else in the role.

@@touofthehighplains To be fair... he wasn't just being a drama queen. The first two movies were awesome. He had input for the action scenes, worked with choreography and everything. They listened his input, as well as the other actors, and it was a big group project. You can tell there was a team behind it. By the time Trinity hit, Blade was too much of a beast to really be challenged. I mean first movie, he killed a god. Second he took out a super vampire. So that was like "let's do Dracula". He was a bit against that, but went with it. Then they started scripting the action scenes without him, ignoring his input and everything. Let's not forget that they were trying to shoehorn in a multitude of characters to see how many spinoffs they could generate. Patton seems like a decent enough guy. By all means, seems no one has had anything bad to say about him, but he leaves out what led up to Snipes' craziness. The movie was gonna be garbage because they were shifting away from Blade and a more serious tone. You gotta admit, Ryan's humor was grating with the tone of the movie. They killed off Whistler... AGAIN, just to bring in someone and we get a line about her being his daughter. She could've just as well been some rando since there's no connection at all. They even forced HHH in there trying to ride the wave that The Rock created. It was treated like a vehicle for so many up and comers instead of an epic we should've gotten. So he was like "Fuck it". The tone has shifted to trying to blame him, but it was a very different narrative at first, with many saying he was trying to get fired so he still get paid. .....I do hate that we didn't get the alternate story though. Where Frost wins and it becomes an apocalyptic world, ending with him gaining some power or weapon to finally kill him at the end of the trilogy. Would've been awesome!

Also the "unnecessary" love interest was added as a way to shock you with the bite. That's why in the actual film the scene is long boring and drawn out for contrast. Was this the best idea? Not really but the first time you saw it don't tell me you weren't surprised.

The "blown up news paper factory" is to emulate the comics which came out in a time that New York didn't look a whole lot better than the movie shows.

Dauda András Hey, I'm with you. As a Marvel fan, I would rather just enjoy the films for what they are, all I'm saying is that if people are going to hype a film for what they feel it represents, they should at least do so with the knowledge that other films have made similar and earlier achievements.

There was no Marvel Studios branding in 1998

Metor man was the first black superhero movie.

IndigoPhoenix21 those people consider Black Panther more important because it's kid friendly,Blade isn't

Dauda Andrias it was also made political by the equal amount of alt-right fucks who dismissed it and came up with legends about the screenings just because the cast is black

Joseph Womer What does it even mean

I think it means that some people always want to take the easy road to power (even if it's literally impossible) like, when you ice skate downhill it's pretty easy and effortless, "uphill" would implying wanting to climb a hierarchy or something, but ice skating uphill is impossible.

Attempting something foolish for the sake of ego and pride.

Doing the impossible. But it just sounds cool before killing a guy.

Well, you see in the original Mary Shelley Dracula, the vampires are known for inventing the game of hockey hundreds of years before we think, so they invented ice skates. That’s why we link vampires and hockey skates. Or, that’s all bullshit, and the line was purely included because Westley Snipes thought it sounded pretty cool, and he was a little dictator on set. Snipes only used post-it notes to talk to the director.

Lol

same with ice skating up hill

@Hey Zeus no. It was cool BECAUSE it's a vampires ultimate idea..Frosts idea. And he rallied a good many vamps for that idea. Which translated to the blood shower as a way to mock what you read about judgement day. Which is cool..in teenager and vampire society lol. So ultimately, the guy a year prior was correct

There's a Bloodrayne joke there, but I don't know how to make it.

That's a really cool concept, but since it wasn't more apparent, it kiiinda smells more of a fan theory than an intentional story beat.

It just looked cool. That’s it. That’s the reason for most of the weird/cool stuff in this movie. Looks cool = in the movie

In most movies, that's just how things lie: They may have been written to be symbolic, ominous symbols for things to come... But unless they're properly announced/displayed, they just seem like coincidences that accidentally seemed intentional. It's the movie equivalent of slopping an eight ball into an unintentional pocket on the last move of billiards: accidents lose you the game.

In Hellsing you have to be a virgin to become a vampire, otherwise you become a ghoul

I remember Skulduggery Pleasant had that whole Ghoul thing, except they were called "Infected" in those books. In that case, Humans bitten by a vampire enter a mindless zombie-like state in which they are completely obedient to the vampire that bit them for 2 days, and then they properly transform.

Different type of vampire. That's what I'm sticking with.

yeah but it wasn't written by Marvel or DC and he was focusing on the two big names

Zone Doll V for Vendetta is a DC comic

There is no much blood in V for Vendetta really, it is hardly 'R'.

Allow me to bring up the point in five words "That was a comic book?"

From memory it was (M)15+ but, if it was R rated it definitely didn't deserve it, considering they cut a majority of the disturbing stuff out, for example, in the intro when Evey goes for her walk after curfew she originally tries to whore herself to some undercover cops, mind you in the graphic novel she was fifteen years of age... to add to it though the cops begin to try and rape her before V comes to her rescue, another example is the doll burning scene between V and a man named Lewis who had a hand in the concentration camp, after which V brainwashes him to dress like a doll and talk like a baby, there are plenty more but those are two off the top of my head, lets also not forget the film only covers the first half of the novel with other part from further along in the story stiched in, we didn't even get to see Evey take on the personality of V to continue his Idea and philosophy, I just wish the film was never made.

Just as much as other badass characters

That why audiences are going now to the Japanese Horror more now than in the past, apart that they are a thousand times much better.

Uhhhhhh Watchmen and V For Vendetta were both R- rated

Watchmen came out in 2009.That is about years before Deadpool. And I would hardly count V for Vendetta as a superhero movie but even if you did it came out in 2005 about a decade before Deadpool.

Blade 2 was a pretty decent movie. More focus on horror than the first. Blade: Trinity was an abortion of a movie. Seriously, I love Dominic Purcell (Heatwave on The Flash and Legends of Tomorrow) but casting him as Dracula was a profoundly stupid move. Parker Posey was gratingly awful, and Triple H just showed why he should stick to being a wrestler.
