I think Blade saying "Are you kidding me?" when they arrived at the Nightclub was more of "Another god damn rave?" more than him being surprised. Kind of a reference to Blade 1's rave in a sense. That's at least how I saw it.
Blade one was amazing. Loved it in 1998. Still love it now. My theory on why Frost didn't become a full blown God is because he was only a half breed. The prophecy required a full blood vampire for it to work. That's why so much emphasis alluded to Frost being half human. However one small line could of cemented this as cannon but it never did.
Or he was a god and it just didn't matter. The being he was would have been a god to vampires of the past, he's invulnerable effectively and none of their weaknesses work on him. The only thing that stopped him was modern medical science which he had no counter for and wouldn't have existed the last time the ritual had been completed.
Ah yes, I remember watching the first one when I was waayyy too young and this movie along with interview with the vampire got me really into vampires and it’s something I still kinda enjoy today
I still remember my dad taking me to go and see the first movie when it came out of theaters. The drive back boiled down to that was awesome, but don't tell your mother.
41:02 as a teen growing up ignorant of this slur, i thought that was the idea, "since vampires can't blush they're asking to mock him for being half human"
@@ChannelAwesome right everyone at channel awesome is amazing but Malcom had me dead to rights with his blade impression you guys have a amazing team and love the content please never stop 😃
It also feels very on point suprisingly,Although it'd be rare for comic blade,I can see him cracking some jokes or snappy bullshit every once in a while
37:08 If I've learned one thing from HEMA channels like Shadiversity: that is called halfswording and it's a real, legit technique that's primarily used for anti-armor (essentially you are using the hilt, especially if it has a crossguard, like a warhammer). Granted, you probably want some decent gloves when you do it, and these guys didn't really have armor so here it's just to show off, but still.
You're thinking of the mordhau grip, also known as the murder-strike. Halfswording is where one hand is holding the hilt and the other is grabbing the middle of the sword in order to stab better with it.
I'd love for you to cover the Hellboy movies in the future because I honestly think they were two of the best comic adaptations I've ever seen. Oh and the last one too I guess just to see where it went wrong.
I agree! Also, I want to say that I would really love to see a crossover comic, cartoon or movie with Supernatural, Blade, and Hell Boy. That would be awesome!
I would like to see him talk about Hellboy 1 and 2 as well. We could get Rob as Del Toro again. And that 2019 Hellboy would be great for a review. He needs to cut that movie a new butthole.
Out of all three of the Blade movies starring Wesley Snipes; I'm sure it's universally agreed upon that Trinity was the worst one hands-down. It had the worst script just to start; not quite regarding the established canon from the previous films. Blade was called reckless by Whistler for killing that familiar, but in reality; it was pretty stupid when you consider the fact that Blade thought he was a vampire. You know; despite the fact that he was limping away from the car and coated with his own blood. Why this is important is because the first Blade movie established that Blade could tell the difference between an human and a vampire by the way they move and the way they smell. This implies that humans and vampires have completely different scents that Blade would be able to smell the difference easily, and as for movement, vampires never limp; especially when trying to avoid being staked through the heart. To put it another way; Blade should have known better, but because the script called for it, Blade killed a guy in full view of everyone and a camera that was recording the entire event. The only thing that the guy had that would make one think that maybe he was a vampire were a pair of fake fangs; which Blade would probably only see if he got real close to the guy.
I think if you shot a vampire in the knee they would be limping for a while; they're not bulletproof. And as for the scent thing, I guess it could be argued that familiars start to smell like their masters just from being around them a lot.
@@ThreadBomb Vampires have been established in the Blade movies to have a remarkable healing factor. Unless the damage comes from garlic, silver, sunlight or EDTA; a vampire have easily endured the pain and run as though nothing happened. It's part of what makes vampires so tough to kill without their primary weaknesses being exploited. And FYI; the guy wasn't shot in the leg. The car he was in was flipped upside-down and crashed into a pole. He was limping because he got injured from the wreck; which makes perfect sense for an human climbing out of a wreck, but not a vampire climbing out of a wreck. A vampire should have been able to resist the pain and make a run for it, but the guy could only limp away from the crash.
Just found this channel last night and absolutely love it. The bits, commentary and humor are so well thought out. You can tell a lot of work and love goes into this. Fantastic jobs all around
Ice skating up hill was absolutely the best one liner in a long ass time. Sides, Snipes' delivery is too damn good. No one can play an edgy character like Snipes can.
Blade is still a great movie, regardless of nostalgia. The only thing that lets it down is that bad CGI at the end. I'm not generally in favor of George Lucasing a movie, but in the case of Blade I think fans would be okay with that problem being corrected.
Ya know, when I was younger I always thought the blush line in Blade 2 meant that when a vampire died and turned to ash it was called blushing. Like I knew what blushing was, but I just thought it was like a different name for them turning to ash.
06:35 If I remember correctly, in the dvd commentary they said that the relationship talk was on purpose out of place. They just thought it was funny to have a soap opera discussion with a smoldering vampire on the table. It was supposed to go nowhere!
Maher Ali is a great actor, but I dont know how its gonna be as Blade. I think some of us will always see Wesley as the only Blade. Also, if only this had been like 3 years ago or so. At this point I'm tired of superheroes. If we dont see another superhero movie or adaptation or reboot or remake at least till 2035 I'd say that the movie industry will either collapse forever or improve significantly
i sooooo love that WELL SHIT in the 47:07.....I've been rewinding it(I'm that old) last dozen times and cant stop laughing...especially Malcoms face 😂😂😂😂
I really don't understand the problem people have with Ron Pearlmens introduction in Blade II. I mean, yes. It was a racist slur. Obviously. But... I mean... he plays one of the bad guys you aren't supposed to like. And this one line nails this 'Ok. I can't stand this figure' perfectly. It's the most bang for the buck, to convey that this character, in fact is an antagonist.
It depends. John Wick and Fury Road had way better Fight Scenes. Netflix Daredevil and Punisher have incredibly good Fight Scenes. Every Liam Neeson Movie since 2005 has laughably bad fight scenes. I think it depends if something is made out of passion or just for the Money. Time has nothing to do with that
@@ahabduennschitz7670 True. It's not the best. However it's not to the grade of terrible Critic minds it to be, Not when there exist far worser comparisons. Like any Steven Segal fighting scene.😅
Explaining his line at the end of the first movie: Deacon Frost is trying to elevate his position as a vampire, which is a cursed being; "ice skating uphill" insinuates his efforts towards godliness will be futile and unredeemed in the end.
If anyone was wondering, it's implied the only reason Frost/LaMagra was able to be killed is because Mercury cocked up the ritual by killing that one elder. 11/12- not legendary.
@@ChannelAwesome I don't think you've seen it considering it's Spanish and was released in 2006 but do you ever think you'll do a review of Pan's Labyrinth? It's the best movie I've ever seen mostly due to the look of the movie and because its never made clear if what happens is really real or in the main characters head.
40:53 I always figured the other Black vampire shrugged it off because all the vamps were just trying to get a rise out of Blade and get under his skin. So the insult was aimed only at Blade…….was still a pretty messed up quote though, Ron probably wasn’t comfortable saying that line.
6:21 This is to let everybody know from the start. She is whoever that guy was in the beginnings love interest. Not Blades. His love is slaying vampires through out the trilogy.
Jim: don't worry del torro, that's not gonna be you Malcom: yeah, you're not gonna be remaking old properties del torro: ...my next film's pinnochio.. Jim: well shit... God, the way Jim delivers this line cracks me up every time...
44:30 The problem is that you can see him stop moving before they show the flip. You could make it look ten times better just by cutting about 1/4 of a second of footage.
Hilarious take from Nostalgia critic. Something I never understood about the Blade universe was why the vampires didn't make more day walkers. They clearly knew how Blade became a day walker, his mother being a vampire and all. They were certainly callous enough to engineer the scenario. The obsession with Blade makes less sense when you consider that they could have created their own "day walker unit" loyal to the vampires.
@@ThreadBomb Then they shouldve explain it. We can come up with a thousand Ideas why they couldnt create their own daywalkers, but its the movies duty to explain it. But tbh honest i don't realy care that much about such Details, the only thing that is important for me is that the character-motivations make sense and thats the case here.
Real shit thats was always my number 1 issue with the entire blade universe as much as i like his character. How the hell were none of these vampires smart enough to try having frost bite a group of pregnant women to see if they could have their own blades😂
@@legendofawwsheet5883 I mean...they probably did? Only problem is that a day walker ages at the same rate as a normal human. If Blade is the only day walker to exist before this then it would take like...another 15 years before another one is grown enough to be used?
Since Blade was introduced to me in 1998 I fell in love with it . Blade is the type of character who will never take the 12 step program because his stuck in one emotion.
I have to admit that before watching this review I had never heard the racial question "Can you blush ?", so during this scene I was just confused as hell.
Fun fact: the shirt Scud wore had the logo for the B.P.R.D. from HELLBOY, del Toro's next movie. And the Blade Trinity ending I remember is Blade on the autopsy table shapeshifting into Drac, then dying again, then cut to Blade on his motorcycle riding off into the night.
21:34 They likely just manifested there during the ritual, using the vampire council members bodies as makeshift portals of sorts. What I can’t wrap my head around is why Frost’s girlfriend killed one of the council members. Yeah he made her mad but I don’t think killing off a sacrifice needed for the ritual is beneficial for your plan. Why was he brought there? As a back up if one of the other sacrifices died earlier on? To See someone you’ve always seen as a nuisance rise again as a Vampire deity? ……I’m putting too much thought into this, I need some coffee.
The ending for Blade Trinity was different than the one I saw where it was Dracula on the table as Blade, but he was dead. And the virus didn't kill Blade at all but he kept on fighting the remnants of vampires that were still running around. Apparently. Idk, it was still just as confusing.
Oh my god that remix at 10:40 was actually hilarious. Very happy I'm watching nostalgia critic again the content has been so damn good recently! Thanks team!
I loved the fist pump. It was showing that even though these vampires are terrifying, Blade is even MORE terrifying and he wasn’t even taking the slaughter seriously.
Regarding Blade's reaction to Whistler dying: he's kinda like Batman, in that he assumes that everyone is eventually going to die and leave him alone. He's beyond the point of caring since he's had too much heartbreak in his life. Killing vampires is the only thing that gives him any sort of happiness, which is why he reacts like a child when he impales Quinn into the wall.
As for the ending of blade three, I remember it as: shot of Dracula lying there, FBI come in, and then it's Blade lying there instead. You're supposed to realise Dracula shape shifted into Blade.
"Does nobody care a guy with a sword is slamming a cop's head into a car?" Late 90's metropolis? Nah, everybody just assumed the cop owed money to some heavy. Best to mind ya bizness.
1:10:42 are we not gonna talk about the fact they had to CGI Blade opening his eyes because Wesley Snipes refused to open them, not agreeing with the ending of the film….epic
1:06:23 It looks like he quickly moved his hand because inappropriately placed it the 1st time😅 1:12:42 Rob, Jim Tamera, Malcom & Barney must have walked in at that moment🤣😂😍😂
38:07 Holy crap that IS Danny John Jules, I didn't notice until you made the Red Dwarf reference, and then I had to IMDB it! If I ever needed another reason to watch Blade 2 I guess this is it lol...

Hey critic love your videos
Wanted to ask if you could make a nostalgia review of the movie waves when you have time
The attention to details and research you guys did for this video was awesome!
Hello
And also: 'Barely; I am a lawyer' is one of the greatest line in all of the blade movies.
The Blade Club scene from the first movie is one of the best introduction to a comic character ever
This may be the only adaptation I’ve seen of this series
But the first two Blade movies were super awesome
I CONCOR.
The first one was awesome. The second one had great Ideas but was way to limited in its storytelling.
Still enjoyable tho
I believe we can all agree that Balde’s swagger In Blade II was the best.
Blade, Matrix,Underworld etc.The era of leather, kung fu, goth and cool glasses
An obvious influence on the first X-Men movie! And I'd include the Resident Evil movies in this late 90s-early 2000s cool category as well.
The movies that made black forever cool.
Dark city, crow, seven
The late 1990s early 2000s wear..
My childhood
I think Blade saying "Are you kidding me?" when they arrived at the Nightclub was more of "Another god damn rave?" more than him being surprised. Kind of a reference to Blade 1's rave in a sense. That's at least how I saw it.

@@tonysmith9905 thats still a retarded issue cause had they tried that theybwouldnt have need blade to be alive for movie 2 to make copies
Since Blade was introduced to me in 1998 I fell in love with it . Blade is the type of character who will never take the 12 step program because his stuck in one emotion.
Dude, even with Udo Kier not playing a sinister role like Doctor Straub in WWII: Zombies, he is a SCARY LOOKING GUY!
23:48 I thought of this (& the jokes) when watching Deadpool & Wolverine...
In this case, Burton hugging Deltoro is just brotherly love.
I absolutely love that del toro reused the blade 2 vampires in the strain.
I remember how the review of the second one came just after they announced the reboot and it wasn't even planned
i feel critic should've looked up the alternate ending for trinity it made more sense than the weird ending he saw.
17:47 Blade discovers his mom turned into the bad daughter in that one Tyler Perry movie. The Family That Preys Together.
I remember her from alien vs predator.
@@NeoConnor1 That had a pretty good end climax actually.🙂
I have to admit that before watching this review I had never heard the racial question "Can you blush ?", so during this scene I was just confused as hell.
Fun fact: the shirt Scud wore had the logo for the B.P.R.D. from HELLBOY, del Toro's next movie.
And the Blade Trinity ending I remember is Blade on the autopsy table shapeshifting into Drac, then dying again, then cut to Blade on his motorcycle riding off into the night.
Doug reviewed the extended edition of Blade Trinity.
21:34
They likely just manifested there during the ritual, using the vampire council members bodies as makeshift portals of sorts.
What I can’t wrap my head around is why Frost’s girlfriend killed one of the council members.
Yeah he made her mad but I don’t think killing off a sacrifice needed for the ritual is beneficial for your plan.
Why was he brought there? As a back up if one of the other sacrifices died earlier on?
To See someone you’ve always seen as a nuisance rise again as a Vampire deity?
……I’m putting too much thought into this, I need some coffee.
There’s another ending where Dracula just takes Blades form, then turns back while still be dead allowing Blade to return to the shadows.
The ending for Blade Trinity was different than the one I saw where it was Dracula on the table as Blade, but he was dead. And the virus didn't kill Blade at all but he kept on fighting the remnants of vampires that were still running around. Apparently. Idk, it was still just as confusing.
Let's just remember that at one point in Blade 1, vampires just put on sun screen. Greatest concept ever.
You combined the classic reviews into one video...
Well Blade, sir.
Oh my god that remix at 10:40 was actually hilarious. Very happy I'm watching nostalgia critic again the content has been so damn good recently! Thanks team!
1:12:25 Thanks to Blade Trinity. Critic then knew how to respond approbriately to his next review.
I loved the fist pump. It was showing that even though these vampires are terrifying, Blade is even MORE terrifying and he wasn’t even taking the slaughter seriously.
Regarding Blade's reaction to Whistler dying: he's kinda like Batman, in that he assumes that everyone is eventually going to die and leave him alone. He's beyond the point of caring since he's had too much heartbreak in his life. Killing vampires is the only thing that gives him any sort of happiness, which is why he reacts like a child when he impales Quinn into the wall.
The "blush" insult I do agree. Making out if he's fully vampire or human etc. Being able to walk in the day.
As for the ending of blade three, I remember it as: shot of Dracula lying there, FBI come in, and then it's Blade lying there instead. You're supposed to realise Dracula shape shifted into Blade.
That's the ending I remember too. Drac shape shifted into Blade as a gift to buy him time to escape.
You are describing the theatrical cut. Doug reviewed the director's cut.
23:56 watching in august 2024 and this line is now glorious
Loved the opening nailing just how things felt in '98 with Marvel properties ignored and DC doing better.
Fun fact. The set for Blade Trinity final battle became Atlantis for Stargate Atlantis.
Love Blade he has been my favorite hero since the first movie in 1998.
I cannot get passed 49:22. I am laughing uncontrollably !! That joke is genius
Doug, you and your crew. Sorry bad in names. NEVER stop these vids!
"Does nobody care a guy with a sword is slamming a cop's head into a car?"
Late 90's metropolis? Nah, everybody just assumed the cop owed money to some heavy. Best to mind ya bizness.
I would 100% be down for blade to make a comeback. Guy with the a sword that kills vampires, badass
Well do I have news for you
Soon my friend, soon.
they are making a reboot
Dude, he's coming back, Mahershala Ali will be playing him in the MCU, his voice was heard at the end of Eternals
Sadly, it's unlikely Disney will let us see the gore necessary to do justice to the character.
I am still rolling my eyes at Blade 1 where they decrypt the super secret vampire langage in 2 minutes. I'm still surprised no one mention that!
I watched Helsing I know a Ghoul when I see one. 20:30 he a ghoul.
1:10:42 are we not gonna talk about the fact they had to CGI Blade opening his eyes because Wesley Snipes refused to open them, not agreeing with the ending of the film….epic
I have always been a DC fan but Blade is amazing One of the heroes I wish was apart of DC
He'd fit right in. Imagine him hunting a leach in Bludhaven and meeting Robin
I would like to see Wesley Snipes play Lucius Fox in the Matt Reeves Batman movies
Also I Would Love see Hellboy vs Blade Make Hellboy 3 with the return of Blade
When would Dracula get a haircut 😂
40:05 is my favorite NC/Malcom quote ever
Blade: i dont like you
Deadpool: he never did
45:52 love when that music comes on
Blade part 1 original..part 2 is also a great sequel...i loved it almost as much
1:06:23 It looks like he quickly moved his hand because inappropriately placed it the 1st time😅 1:12:42 Rob, Jim Tamera, Malcom & Barney must have walked in at that moment🤣😂😍😂
24:06 - 24:36 made me spill my drink
😂😂😂
57:41 Holy shit, young Daniel Molloy at the start of his vampire investigation.
This makes me really miss the days when they had little skits in between Nostalgia reviews.
Ngl
Early nostalgic critic was crazy funny
I mean his funny still but back then his humour was truly funny
Just a quick note that the toy Bat in the first film (11:26) was a cape accessory to the Morbius toy from the Spiderman animated series.
18:21 So nobody gonna mention thats MJF from AEW's theme song?
38:07 Holy crap that IS Danny John Jules, I didn't notice until you made the Red Dwarf reference, and then I had to IMDB it! If I ever needed another reason to watch Blade 2 I guess this is it lol...
OK that ending had me on the floor!
That opening sketch might be the best piece of satire Doug's ever written. I put it on just for that.
