That was too funny. I am from that village too😂😂

Nigerian accent lol

You are beautiful

What a dumb and ignorant thing to say. Well I guess that's to be expected from black Americans who always make fun of Africa. Africa is a beautiful continent with equally beautiful countries and vibrant cities. We don't walk around naked sçratching our balls.

@@thabophumo2009 You must be real fun at parties. Twas a joke man. Even me, an African American recognize that.

FK kroniiic Wesley Snipes tried to be Black Panther even before Blade, but Marvel was tripping....didn't want him to do it. Do your research.

Wesley woulda killed that role in Black Panther

Wakanda forever!

😂😂😂😂😂 priceless comment!

More like the Forefathers of Black American!

TollFree999 with that accent, definitely, I thought he only going to do it for a few seconds but he held on throughout

NOW...that would be an extraordinary movie 👍

Yeahhh mannnn

Blade is travelling to Wakanda to meet BlackPanther in the movie. BlackPanther 2.

TollFree999 Can’t agree more.

Finally someone has said it right. Its a "West African accent". People were making it sound like the whole of Africa has the same accent. And yes, Wesley nailed the accent

Actually most West Africans speak French. This isn't Ghanaian accent cuz I'm a Ghanaian. It's like Nigerian accent rather n not West African accent.

he speaks like that??? thats not stage is it? ommg!! your kidding? im not crittizinzing. i always though he spoke like a black gaphtto!. he sound like hes from ghana!

oor hes making it up?

thats not his real accent... purely intentional.. cant you see audience are laughing? 😂

That just makes me sad how we haven't made any progress since the 90's. Where is the next Sam, Denzel or Wesley?

chefawkes if you mean where are the talented up and coming black actors, Michael B. Jordan, Anthony Mackie,Donald Glover, Larenz Tate, to name a few.

Adam Loring And none of them are international stars like denzel. I live in the UK now, people don't know Michael b jordans name like they did will smith.

And ALL of them are missing the X Factor that propels ordinary humans into mega stardom.

Well you asked where are the next Sam, Denzel, and Wesley. Give those guys I mentioned 30 plus years in the business like you did these others actors and they very well could be international stars. You don't; reach that level over night.

so true

He's not underated so much as he just got into a lot of trouble. He's going through his robert downey stage when he hit rock bottom before iron man. But also I hear Westley has a poor temperament??? Not sure how true that is. But Westley is a true talent no question.

First and the best

Damn Right.... Legendary

Yeah, if you don't count the five marvel movies before Blade it's first. Otherweise it's the 6th marvel movie. And the first is Captain America from 1944. I also think Dolph Lundgrens Punisher from 89' deserve a mention! 😎

Oops!!! Forgot about that movie!🤔👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾❤

@@rylter We don't count old ass unsuccessful movies. Blade was the first Marvel movie that was successful in the box office world wide, and it's what caused Fox to take a chance with X-Men, and Sony with Spider-Man, and pathed the way for the MCU of today.

Yeh not lets get them all sharing the same screen in a movie together.

Eli from Book of Eli is a cool DW character as well.

Finally, BLACK MAGNIFICENCE ICONS... Way Overdue !!!!!

its actually SHAFT

What’s crazy is that Wesley wanted to make black panther before blade and no one was for it so he did blade instead.

Aww your sweet we get downtrodden alot so we really appreciate pick me ups like so thank-you so much you beautiful soul

They didn't get it.

Bullshit mate. It is not discrimination, it is like Denzel says "if its not on the page its not on the stage" Black Americans make up what 12% of the population of North America so obviously the majority of any general enterprise is likely to be mostly a White American endeavour. But people like Spike Lee writing the material they want and using the actors they want and the only litmus of the worth of an endeavour is the profit from the ticket sales. But unlike any other race in the worlds "white" Humans do not get to preference themselves, we do not get a white history month and we can be turned away from a job for not being Black/minority. What would be ironic here is the three largest actors on the planet who just happen to be black complaining about it. Matter of fact many of their rules they got BECAUSE they are black and bring something to the rule that the director/writers wanted from their specific cultural background.

True. Still a long way to go about black representation in Hollywood

Every month is white history month. Trust me, my highschool curriculum was full of it. This nation, at its core, is run on white supremacy. People hear that word and it causes immediate defensiveness. Relax. As you said, whites are the overwhelming majority, so why not create a system by which said majority is certain to proliferate? Human beings are a tribal species. Trust me, just attend a Raiders vs Chiefs game. In that light, racism is also a natural thing. Innovations in travel and communication devices have proven this without argument. However therein lies the problem: America is a democratic constitutional republic in its infancy, (though truly a political oligarchy) and have promised certain privileges for people who are not white. In order for America to become what it says it is on paper, America had to "unbecome America". Now we have these unnatural encounters of many different cultures, and immigrants taking advantage of said travel advances in order to become Americans. Holy crap, they just elected a black president! Course correction #45. Americans want change, but not that much! The Declaration wasn't written on behalf of people who are not white, nor was the Bill of Rights. 200 years later, we're all here, Americans of equal rights trying to undo the mess that the forefathers made. So yes, there's a certain calculus within creating a truly equal society, even though the majority very likely has a relative, associate, or friend in every aspect of the socioeconomic structure of this country (white supremacy/white privilege). However, whites continuously don't understand the advantage of this networking within your tribe. In order to counterbalance this networking advantage, affirmative action was introduced. It isn't a perfect solution, but it's evidently a more plausible answer than Sherman's Field Order No.15. However, if my name was Jamal and your name was Dustin, concrete studies show that with the exact same credentials and resume, you will get the job. If you and I committed the exact same crime, you will serve a sentence 19% shorter than mine. My grandparents were sharecroppers; No education, totally illiterate. This is common in the south. My parents had to quit school in the 8th and 10th grades in order to help out in the fields. So when my older brothers and sisters were bussed from "separate but equal" black schools, which were anything but equal in terms of curriculum and facilities, who was there to help them with their Trig and Economics homework? Science fair? Whites have an advantage that I call "A legacy of knowledge ". There is a far greater chance that a white grandparent had a college education than a black grandparent. This is of extreme importance TODAY, in an atmosphere that many suggest that simply because no one alive was in slavery, the impact of slavery is nullified. LIES! Jim Crow was legalized slavery performed through white supremacy, and despite all attempts, blacks and whites will never be equal in this or any other country because of the white supremacy, Manifest Destiny foundation that America was founded on. These actors are amongst the greatest black actors in history. Because of this excellence, they have obtained movie roles written for white actors. Yet, despite their performances, they don't command the salaries of comparable white actors. DVD's in full HD of all of Denzel's films are leaked two weeks prior to their release with the message, "For Awards Consideration". The leaker is either a member of the Academy of Motion Pictures, or someone involved with the film. This does a number on it's earning potential. So those black men are on stage because they know what sacrifices black actors and filmmakers have to make in order to be successful. Dave Chappelle walked away for $50 mil, and Halle Berry had to film the equivalent of soft core porn in order to win an Oscar for a leading role. With that credential, what has she done since? Lol. This is America. Oh, and I can't go back to where I came from because Ancestry.com says that I'm 23% Euro and 12% Native, along with my various African ancestral parts.

💯 Wes is so so underated, because of what he went through. I grew up watching him, before blade and he is leagues above and beyond Will Smith

^^^ This absolutely I concur. Wesley is woefully underrated.

Great film

I agree!!

That has to be my favorite Spike Lee Joint. It has everything except light sabres and androids and hobbits and stuff. I feel like I've lived a whole lifetime every time I watch it. And the way Denzel makes it look like he's really playing that trumpet is magnificent. And I've seen a lot of people pretend to play instruments in movies; that is dedication!
