Without Blade you don’t get no Spider-Man, X-Men, Ironman, Avengers or Black Panther. This was the first Marvel movie to be a success.
Wesley wanted to do black panther but they let him do this movie instead
Absolute exactly
Yup
One of the best Marvel movies ever made
IIRC Marvel was having some tough financial problems in '97/98 and the movie saved them :)
The movie that saved Marvel, and opened the door for the MCU.
Shame that a lot of marvel “fans” haven’t seen this trilogy
Damn right 🤘🏾

Some motherfuckers are always trying to ice skate uphill.
I love Blade but if i could undo this movie from ever being made i would, to save us from 80 million stupid Marvel children's movies that all have the exact same plot just with different characters. Bunch of bad acting with guys just swinging on strings in front of a green screen with nothing actually being real around them. So dumb
@@user-wr9ej6xe4j hey you should be thankful
Blade is what you call a Dhampir, half-human and half-vampire. They can survive in both human and vampire worlds, but some struggle against vampiric tendencies like Blade's thirst for blood.
In all the Marvel movies, there's no one cooler than Wesley Snipes as Blade. Blade was what proved that Marvel characters could be profitable / successful as movies.
Мне нравится сериал "Каратель" самое лучшее что я видел в Марвеле
Даже актёр главный идеально подошёл
Жалко что тока 2 сезона 😢
It is a Masterpiece, and it was produced around the same time, but came out before The Matrix. This was the peak of that latex and leather rave era in films.
Yep and underworld
@@PelgramUnderworld was after The Matrix. Still a pretty good franchise.
I miss that era, so many fun classics:
Blade
The Matrix
Mission: Impossible II
Charlie's Angels
The Fast And The Furious
Blade II
Die Another Day
Bad Boys II
The Matrix Reloaded
Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle
The Matrix Revolutions
The Punisher
I've probably missed some, might not have seen others.
@@crashfan9997 It was a feast era. Also shout out to Patrick Jane, his Punisher is still underrated.
@@crashfan9997
Man in Black 1,2 ☝ X-Men 1,2. Spider man 2000s. Daredevil. Tomb Raider (Angelina Jolie) , The Lord of the Ring ☝
This year marks the 25th Anniversary of Blade (1998). Wesley Snipes just nailed his role as Blade. I enjoy watching your reactions. 😎
Yep it's the 25th anniversary of blade
Oh yes Blade. Wesley Snipes was the perfect Blade in all 3 movies I'm going to love these reactions thank you
blade one is good blade 2 is a masterpiece
Broadly agree, but apparently the third act got a major rewrite to make Blade almost invincible. My major dislike is that Blade is so prescient that he actually plans to take out the POS familiar who is little to no threat with the head explosive when the clearly bigger threat is Reinhardt @@immrme3259
How much do I miss the 90s😭
@@immrme3259and blade 3 was rubbish
Fun fact, A day walker is a vampire who is immune to sunlight and has no weaknesses that vampires have.
Also because they are half human.
I think they both comment so much during the film they must have missed the part where Whistler explained that Blade doesn't share some vampire weaknesses like sunlight but not the thirst for blood.
Blade is the G.O.A.T.! 🔥🔥🔥
That scene of Blade energizing himself by drinking blood from the doctor was 🤘🤘🤘
Blade!💯 This is the movie that started it all for the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Wesley Snipes is a total badass in this movie. The production and action sequences are well done! Wesley Snipes captures the essence of Blade well, yet adding some depth to his character.
not mcu. if all you mean is marvel movies you at least had at least spiderman 1977 before this if not others
Except for that blonde vampire's death. Worst CGI I ever saw. The "gibs" just looked like bunting paper to me.
@@abeclark524 it's 1998 bud
@@VColossalV Matrix came out in '99. No excuse. That was just horrible. Don't get me wrong, Blade is one of my favorite movies, but that one scene is just god awful and makes me cringe.
@@abeclark524 the matrix movies had plenty of wacky CGI moments lol. The sequels notoriously so. Yes, the fact that it's 1998 is certainly a good excuse, even they were commenting at how good the CGI was for 1998. I bet you cringe at many things but I'm not sure it means all that much
Hi Michelle & Vicki!🙂Wesley Snipes is going to be very hard to beat in the reboot of the film. "Blade II" (2002) is also a very good film and is directed by Guillermo del Toro. "Blade: Trinity" (2004) is the weakest film in the trilogy IMO. Great reactions to your very first Blade film, Ladies!!!!🎬👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Trinity is the weakest of the 3 but still an enjoyable movie
Agreed. I saw the first two Blade movies in theatre multiple times. The third Blade film I only saw once because they tried to take the focus of the movie off of Blade and put it on the side characters. The remake is going to have meet a lot of expectations. And if they censor the remake of Blade and make it family friendly PG-13, it will turn off a lot of the hard core Blade fans.
@@VoidMySoullot better than the TV show spike TV did. The anime G4 did in 2010s was awesome.
I have a sneaking suspicion that mid twenties Ryan Reynolds running around in Blade Trinity will overshadow their notice of any flaws in the movie.
Nobody will ever be as good as Wesley Snipes playing Blade
This Movie Saved The Whole Comic Book Movie Genre In General, Marvel Was About To Go Bankrupt Because How Bad The Movies They Have Done In The 80's & Early 90's, This Movie Is Why We Have The MCU & Even Saved DC Comics Movies Also, DC & Warner Bros Was About To Go Bankrupt Also Because How Bad George Clooney Played Batman In Batman & Robin. There Was Plans From Somebody In Hollywood To Buy Out All Rights To Well Known Comic Books Like DC, Marvel & Dark Horse To End Them All & Stop Making Comic Book Movies, Blade Is The Reason Why Comic Book Movies Still Exist & We Have The MCU. Wesley Snipes Is The Godfather Of Comic Book Movies!!!
I used to watch this Movie on VHS since many years ago when I was a kid and a Teenager too in my past ever since and it does bring back memories.
The reason the vampires evaporate is because they can’t stand silver. Which is why Blade’s sword and bullets are made of silver.
I love the subtle irony of a guy who looks like a burnt marshmallow calling Blade the freak.
i've always liked that piece of dialogue: tells you - in a quiet way - that Blade is an outcast, even among vampires. To humans, Blade is a freak because of his thirst for human blood and inhuman strength. To the vampires, Blade is a freak because human day-walking ability and because he kills his OWN KIND.
100% we would not have the marvel universe today without blade being so successful back then when this came out you would not have any of the marvel movies this basically saved marvel from being bankrupt if I remember right from the story this movie is a masterpiece for what it was at the time Glad you ladies enjoyed it it's a wild ride you definitely should watch part two blade two is even more of a wild ride❤
If you like vampires and werewolves. Check out the Underworld movies with Kate Beckinsale. Awsome movies
Blade was made at basically the same time as The Matrix, which is a reason why the styles are similar, with the black trenchcoats, lots of guns, kung fu, and the one blonde chick in white.
Blade is a trilogy, and the FX get better as we go. Other than the FX, I think the stories, etc., are of pretty much the same quality right through.
You forgot 1 black scientist chick " in white"
Blade came out before the Matrix.
time to watch the sequel which is my personal favorite
Blade has one of the best soundtracks 😊
True fact, Wesley had to slow down because his martial arts were too fast for the camera's to catch his moves.
Casting all around was awesome in this movie, especially Snipes and the baddie.
Dorff?
@@JohnHill-bn5knEvery one of them. The top baddie, though, was super competent as a bad dude, and his male lieutenant played the comic relief to a 't.' Even the thin white girl was so demonic!
@@ChristobanistanStephen Dorff was a great character actor. Too bad I have not seen him in many movies after Blade.
This is an incredible film. The characters, choreography and music all create a beautiful world. Seeing this in the cinema as a kid was a fantastic experience.
As you watch, all these questions come into your mind and thankfully all answers are sprinkled neatly into the plot exactly where they should be. Except for what Pearl was.
Although they did introduce zombies in the form of Karen's ex and before throwing her in, Frost briefly explains what zombies actually are in this universe.
An absolute masterpiece of a film...!
Just remember that Blade's serum is red. The EDT explodey vampire stuff is blue...
So when Frost holds it in his hands and mentions the serum, a lot of people believe that's what it is, the serum. But obviously it's not given Frost's explosive demise.
Whistler was a great character and when he dies you can feel Blade's emotions even though he hides them extremely well. Kris Kristopherson put in a very strong performance here.
Karen is a very powerful woman and being a Haematologist, perfect to find cures for blood disorders. I'm sure she created a super-charged serum for Blade after the end of the film.
It's a real shame that she didn't return for the sequel. It would have been interesting to see how her character would have developed further.
Having said all of that though, in my honest opinion, as much as I love this film, I do feel that Blade 2 was bigger & better in so many ways.
Anyway, cool video, thanks...! 👍🏻
On the side note... They should not make another blade. This one is already perfect! That's it :)
You can slice him, you can dice him. But the Quinn man just keeps coming back
I remember going out and buying the first replica sword I could find after this movie came out. (it's not the official one, too expensive for me at the time) Loved the campiness, action and the techno music
So interesting of you to react to this movie i havent watched.... Since the first vampire was born i guess ^^
If i'm not mistaken Blade is a Marvel character! And when i saw this movie i have to say its become much better than whats made even today. What does it say about our time???
And you are right about blades being so much fun than guns. Remember Obi_Wan Kenobi in episode 3 holding a gun after losing his saber "So uncivilised!"
The first real kick-a** vampire action thriller and Marvel's first-ever character with a box office smash.
Jumping off Marvel's golden age on film (1998-2007) with the second Rated-R movie with a Marvel character and from it's supernatural/horror realm.
Blade debuted 50 years ago in The Tomb of Dracula comics as one of Drac's many foes.
Inspired by 1970s blaxploitation films (namely Shaft & Blacula).
This trilogy of the character was written by David S. Goyer (The Dark Knight Trilogy, Man of Steel, BvS:Dawn of Justice).
Prior to being casted as Blade, Wesley Snipes as actor & producer was involved with developing Black Panther.
At the time, the film rights of BP were with Sony.
Snipes didn't know Blade & Black Panther were both from Marvel.
History made for sure.
It paved the way for more success of Marvel characters on film.
Nuff respect due to the success in the arrival of The Daywalker.
Another classic movie ! 👍🇺🇸🇮🇹🇲🇽
Now you need to see number 2 and try the underworld movies: vampires vs werewolves
I'm very happy y'all reacted to this movie, it's badass
Since you said you like movies with vampires and werewolves, you should watch the Underworld series, starring Kate Beckinsale. (Critics didn't like it, but audiences did.) The films are Underworld (2003), its sequel Underworld: Evolution (2006), a prequel Underworld: Rise of the Lycans (2009), Underworld: Endless War (2011), Underworld: Awakening (2012), and Underworld: Blood Wars (2016). (Blood Wars was the only one that audiences didn't like so much.)
just 1 thing: Blade was release mid August 1998 and matrix release end of May 1999... almost a year later
somehow everyone relate Blade with matrix but should be the other way around, Blade save Marvel... amazing movie!
Wesley Snipe was born to play Blade. Blade is a classic but Blade 2 improved upon the original. I hope you two continue the Blade saga
The girl from the beginning was his mom, bit and left for dead while pregnant with him. I think that's how he became a day walking vamp!
Come for the blood rave, stay for the kickass action sequences.
Preferred Marvel when they were independent, before Disney came knockin' on their door 🚪
Blade's still a badass 👊😆
If you love marvel you MUST watch this ,its the movie that saved marvel from bankruptcy and made all that came after possible. This movie was before matrix
Marvel wouldn’t be marvel without Blade
I really loved this movie. Of the three, I rank this one number one, then part 2 second. The third one I thought didn’t have that thing to it like one and two.
Fun fact: Blade was released in August 1998, just eight months before The Matrix would hit theaters 🍿👀
Vampires are so scary while they're totally badass!!!!!!!!
I dont own a gun but i DO own a sword .... 🤪
Hotties, Blade is a Dhampir (Dam'pir), that is the result of a pregnancy between a vampire and a human. This union was usually between male vampires and female humans, with stories of female vampires mating with male humans being rare.
Blade is also something else, a Day-Walker, the rarest of the rare of all the vampire strains. Though he still ages like a regular human he also gets stronger as he goes along. Should he drink human blood, it supercharges him! He exceeds even full vampiric strength, speed, agility and senses.
In the comics, people have volunteered like the good Doctor to let Blade feed on them. Surprisingly, instead of this turning them into a vampire, it has on occasion cured them of vampirism, it also unites them with Blade's cause. It's like the vampiric enslavement but voluntary.
I would love to see Blade fight Selene!
The feasibility of Marvel hero movies as a thing in Hollywood, began right here.
The Homies just in case y'all are curious Daywalkers are an exceedingly rare 1 of a kind breed of vampires that're born
immune/impervious 2 the UV rays of yellow sunlight!
If Michelle is a fan of swords you all should react to "Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon" or "Hero" (2002)
When he drank her blood it wasn't his first time drinking human blood. Whistler explained that he found him in the streets as a child drinking human blood.
Awesome reaction Blade is my favorite super hero besides wolverine and spider man.
I agree. I'll add Black Panther and Batman to make it 5.
Blade is badass how he fights Vampires!!!!!!!!!
Still the best, original MCU movie. Unofficially.
The white skin of the vampires in the daylight scenes is the sunscreen they use.
Check Blade II and Trinity, they are great too 😎
I think you'd like blade 2 as well, though the third one is pretty questionable. As far as 2 goes, the new parasitic vampires in that one were created by the same guy who later expanded on that idea and created the strain novels and tv series, which is a pretty different take on vampires being parasites that spread via parasitic worms injected via a 6 foot long tongue-stinger kind of organ. It might be worth looking into watching on the channel as well
You ladies have a down to earth and entertaining way of interacting and commenting on videos, and it is a real treat lovely ladies
the language spoken in the cerimony was used in an old hardcore music piece, back in the 90's. I'm not totally sure, but i think one of Dj Paul Elstak's pieces.
Enjoy the Blade trilogy :
(2h00m) [1998-AUG-21] BLADE
(1h57m) [2002-MAR-22] BLADE II
(2h02m) [2004-DEC-08] BLADE III : TRINITY
Vicki English is getting so much better... she has come along way :)
Couldn't agree with Michelle more! Sword fighting is so much cooler than gun fighting!!
Blade is the first modern Marvel movie, before the MCU existed
Hey girls, I'm glad you enjoyed the movie. But wait until you see Blade 2 and Trinity. Let's just say Blades in for one hell of an adventure. If you want to know what blades life was like growing up check out the blade the anime. It's based around the comics and you'll learn things about blade what they couldn't show in the movie.
Different Tribes of vampires die differently."Quin" the subway scene the people Blade shoot are humans working for vampires
If you two become vampires, you must move to Romania :). Now you have seen the true first black superhero (if you don't count Shaft). Black Panther is a poser. Blade came before him by 20 years and Wesley Snipes is an actual martial artist.
@@justindenney-hall5875 which just proves my point that Black Panther being billed as the first black superhero was complete nonsense, and insults those that came before him.
@@justindenney-hall5875 the overarching point is that Black Panther was not the first black superhero or are you forgetting I mentioned "Shaft" (1971) who predates "Abar", so you are wrong. You could also throw "Fat Albert's The Brown Hornet" in there if you wanted to (1979). BTW your movie is considered "blacksploitation", so maybe not the best example.
Pls you need to watch BLADE 2 !!! its a master piece
I love the way they say....."vampire.".....VOM-PIRE.
Michelle needs to give HEMA (Historical European Martial Arts) a try!
In comics blade is much more powerful. First Frost bit his mother and blade aka Eric Brooks became a half breed with all vampire strength and none of their weakness except for thirst. But then a genetically engineered vampire Michael Morbius bit him and Blade became much more powerful with the thirst gone too...
This Blade movie's success saved Marvel and paved way for the Marvel movie universe...Wesley Snipes as Blade is irreplaceable...He is to Blade as what Hugh Jackman is to Wolverine
15:34 I like to see Michelle become a vampire
"The Matrix" ripped off 2 movies, they being "Blade" and "Dark City". Blade and Dark City were released by New Line Cinema in 1998. Warner Brothers owns New Line Cinema. They saw Blade and Dark City, and stole various elements from both films in order to create The Matrix. The Matrix was released in 1999.
Here's the irony. The filmmakers behind The Matrix, The Wachowski Brothers (who are now sisters), got their story from Dark City. Due to the creator of Dark City having not done a sequel, the Wachowskis had no one to copy - hence the disastrous Matrix sequels.
Later...after the Wachowskis began partying too much...Warner Brothers turned to Christopher Nolan...for the purpose of ripping off both Dark City and the Matrix, with an added plagiarism from the film "Dreamscape"...called "Inception".
You will love Dark City. You should also watch the Wachowski produced "V for Vendetta"...and their directorial debut "Bound".
This is my favorite marvel hero.
Watch the Blade sequels and the Hellboy movies
There was lots of guys he fought at the end and frost was not easy blade needed to use the serum on him to defeat him
You like swordplay? I strongly recommend 1986's *The Highlander,* starring Christopher Lambert, Sean Connery, and Clancy Brown as the main villain.*YOU'LL LOVE IT!* ⚔️
Reaction request : Saturday Night Fever (1977) and Staying Alive (1983), both starring John Travolta
Now watch Blade II, it's every bit as good.
That impression of if you where a policeman was the most sexy thing I’ve seen on RUclips lol
I hope you girls will watch the third movie: Ryan "Deadpool" Reynolds was very funny in that movie! Another GREAT movie series about vampires is Underworld. I hope you'll watch it soon (at least the first three movies).
I have and seen all of the underworld films and liked all of them
@@jamesmeechan6983 I LOVE them! And Kate Beckinsale (and Rhona Mitra in the third one) is super-hot!
FAVORITE MOVIE EVER!!! Blade is the coolest hero in my humble opinion
Only silver weapons make the vampires turn to ash.
DAMMN OFFICER!!!!! We All PLEAD GUILTY
The first R Rated Marvel movie I saw with my friend on DVD.
A lot of actors were considered for the role Blade, Denzel Washington, LL Cool J, Michael Jai White, and Laurence Fishburne, until Wesley Snipes was cast after his version of BLACK PANTHER was cancelled.
An alternative ending was filmed but cut from the movie, where Morbius was going to be the villain in the sequel, yet thankfully this never happened.
Michelle becoming a cop makes me think of a certain scene in "American Wedding."
The only thing his serum does is keep him from craving human blood.
If you liked Wesley Snipes in this movie, you might also like the spy thriller he did a couple of years later, "Art of War." Except for the Blade series, it is probably my favorite Snipes film.
This is the best version of Blade.
Wait till you see BLADE 2 it’s sick cool 😎
Check out Blade 2 its a very good sequel. You can also check out Punisher 2004 another very good marvel movie from that time.
The little girl is Brenda Song
Wesley Snipes is Blade. You'll enjoy the sequels.
Dang the girl in green could be milla Jovovich's stunt double or twin easy
Chris Brown's music video Wall To Wall is like the movie Blade
Movie recommendation : vampire comedy Innocent Blood. Starring Anne Parrillaud from original La Femme Nikita movie.
@warre1 I commend you for suggesting something more obscure, although the Homies as far as I know only do well known properties, I think channels like "Reel Reviews With Jen!" or "Underwaterflowers" or "You, Me, & the movies" would be more likely to react to it.
Michelle and Viki You should have watched this with Ellie and Lia !!!!
Blade was always a great character but Wesley Snipes makes him even better,you should react to the 2nd one is even better.
You girls should watch underworld movies!!
Some don disappear because they are not vampire but familiars
Blade is a great saga and I really like all three films. Let's hope that Warner Bros. never returns the rights to the saga to Disney Marvel because there will surely be censorship
oh yeah. Disney will flip most of the characters female and black for no other reason than they think the immutable aspects your identity are the most important, not least important part of one's character.
what are you talking about?
Hey Michelle, if you really love Sword Fight Movies you should definitly give "Highlander" a chance.
The sequels are also worth checking out. Two is good. Three gets some hate, but I found it enjoyable. Gotta see 'em all.
16:24 😂
I just subscribed . Blade is on that level.❤️👍🏽👍🏽
