They wanted to make Female Blade to replace Wesley's Blade character. That's been the plan since the original talks. Some muthfukkas are aaaalways trying to ice skate uphill
They could reboot the franchise and make it more comic accurate. They could even adapt the anime series from a decade ago, which were pretty good and featured a badass Deacon Frost.
Ahhhh I loved Blade.That opening scene was sooooo cool. And maybe it wasn't what some people called 'good cinema' I don't care. Give me back the action. Give me back the cool guys (Demolition Man was also a good Snipes role)
I had no idea that the original _Blade_ movie was so poorly received at the time. I've just always taken it for granted that everyone I've know loves that movie. It is always very amusing to me to watch old critic reviews (like Siskel and Ebert) absolutely savaging movies from the 80s and 90s that pretty much everyone now regards as _absolute classics:_ they literally had no clue whatsoever that they were living through a bountiful *golden age* of great movies, and that everything after the turn of the Millennium (LOTR excepted) would be so so much worse.
The movie was like by horror-fans but not really by the mainstream audience. And one of the reasons might be the gory effects, since the director came from more or less splatter-films (his first one was Death Machine). Later it became more accepted by the general (comic book-movie) audience.
@@stevekramerf242 I just remember it coming out on VHS (& possibly DVD) around the same time as _The Matrix_ was in theatres, and it was kinda like: "if you liked _that,_ you should also check out _this_ too". That, and a lot of people in my school had the soundtrack albums to both.

Then realized it was good through word of mouth.
The reason Blade worked so well wasn't just because Wesley Snipes exuded so much charisma that he could charm the panties off a mannequin, but also because he was a martial artist. He was actually doing the moves his character was supposed to be doing, which made him so satisfying to watch, and reinforced him being so badass that he could get away with any cheesy one-liner imagineable. Modern Hollywood simply lacks the necessary tools to make Blade work, which is why they can't do it. One would have better luck demanding a mosquito to explain thermodynamics.
@@matthiasthulman4058 He's a bit old to be playing Blade (he's only a few years younger than Wesley Snipes). I'm also less familiar with his work, so I can't speak to his charisma, especially when he'd be competing directly with Wesley in that regard, or in other words, ice-skating uphill.
Tired excuse. Wesley is still in good shape for his age. I will only accept that if Wesley comes out and says it himself. He was actually in talks to return ad Blade before Ali was cast. So, I don't buy that too old bs.
@@mszhellfyre5743 Have we seen the same movie? I'm sure he's doing fine for his age, for activities fitting of his age. That doesn't make him apt to play an action hero.
@SPTX. Wesley been an action star for over 20 years. Do you think Ali can do it? He's not a young man either. Ali is not a seasoned martial artist like Wesley. Like I said, unless he says himself he can't do it than I'll accept it.
Here’s an idea: have Wesley Snipes play a significantly aged up blade who is noticeably older and tired, but who’s still getting kicks out of killing vampires - even if he slips up a bit due to his old age.
If not Snipes the ONLY other guy I can think of for the job is Denzel. He could do that irreverent badass charisma thing he did in Training Day. Smiling and laughing while killing people. I think that would work for the Blade character, and Denzel wouldn't get bullied into being a cuck by the studio. Denzel might be too old even for an aged Blade though.
One thing they could have done is a story about Blade losing to his thirst and having to use so many form of serum that his body is starting to break down. Him going into hiding to save people from himself and how his absence emboldens the vampires enough that new people start fighting them and also trying to figure out what has caused this "new" spike in vamp activity and thus leading to them tracking Blade down. Doubt modern Hollywood could pull it of though...
- bring back Wesley Snipes as an older Blade ( similar to Jackman's older Wolverine in Logan) , he's still in great shape & ready to go. - spend a small to medium budget ( 40-80 $ Million) - make it Rated -R - hire Gareth Evans ( The Raid movies) or maybe Timo Tjahjanto ( The Night Comes for Us/ The Shadow Strays) as director. Both are experts in making super violent & badass action & horror films. - let them cook PROFIT It's literally that simple, but current year Hollyweird is too incompetent to do it.
Maybe the guys behind "John Wick" would do as well. Not sure how far "badass daywalker vs newest suped-up vampire(s)" is outside their usual wheelhouse of "hyper competent hitman vs the entire criminal underworld."
@@marqod1437 JJ Perry, who is one of the 87Eleven team or 87North ( the Wick guys) as they're called now, has made a vampire hunter action/horror/ comedy movie starring Jamie Foxx called "Dayshift" for Netflix. It's basically: "What if Blade was a working class vampire hunter". It also featured Scott Adkins, as an Armenian vampire hunter. Pretty entertaining little movie with lots of violent action scenes. I'm sure the guy could make a competent Blade film.
While i wouldn´t mind a new Blade movie, i don´t want one where he ends up dying at the end. That trope is well and truly played out. I would much rather him doing a Bruce from Batman Beyond. After this final movie he retires and becomes more of a mentor to the next generation. Sure there can be a successor after that who takes up the mantle of Blade, but leave the door open for Snipes to return from time to time.
@@barahng Would make total sense, Blade kills off the most badass vampire, then retires, vamps go underground for centuries until reemerging when they think he's gone - but surprise! Whole team ready for them.
Blade fucks. You don't think Blade fucks? Look at him, he fucks. Safron Caulder is the girl's mother, and she as been Blade's girlfriend in the comics since the mid 70s.
The opening to Blade one is one of those scenes that should be studied in film schools. Tells you everything you need to know, hits the gas, and rest of the movie practically writes itself. Current day Marvel can not do that these days.
Karen/Fujoshi: _"You got a lot of love for Whistler, don't you?"_ Blade: *_"We have a good arrangement. He makes the weapons, I use them."_* Karen/Fujoshi: _"No I mean you love him. In THAT way."_ Blade: *_"Looks like I really was too late. You're turned."_* **Callous Slice'n'Dice noises**
The list of things that are now impossible to create is depressingly large. I suppose there is some mercy in this. Almost everything that would be recreated would be mangled beyond recognition of the brand slapped on it.
Like others have said. Do an Old Man Logan version of Blade. He is old, he is tired, he still kicks ass, but its getting harder. I don't have any problem with his daughter taking up the mantle so long as Blade is her mentor and she respects him. It worked for Batman Beyond.
It would have to be a son though. You just can’t have a woman trying to be badass without her coming off as just another Mary-sue bossbabe. Especially with writing these days.
With the amount of fighting the entire inertia of DEI Disney that Reynalds did and is still doing just keeping Deadpool from being replaced with Lady Deadpool. Even making a fiscally successful film has not convinced Disney to keep shoveling money into the DEI furnace. It seems like the only thing that has happened is Disney currently working to delay in hopes that the mythical foretold "modern audience" to suddenly come in a consume all their slop.
Remember this Steve Erin THE CROCODILE MAN wanted to fight this man, and his manager told him no because he might get injured… Snipes trumps saltwater crocs in difficulty
Wesley Snipes is alive, willing and right there! The fans want it, he wants it. Marvel is so ignorant. And I have liked Mahershala Ali since The 4400. He's a great actor but Wesley Snipes should be playing Blade, period.
They don't need Blade to be mobile or active, having him crippled by wounds and incapacitated, having to battle with vampires through cunning and trickery. Make a horror house movie where vampires try to infiltrate his safehouse and get slaughtered by traps, have a reveal at the end that one of their mortal stooges was Blades daughter all along or something.
Blade and Spawn the animated series are two absolutely perfect adaptations that should be put on a bloody pedestal, admired as paragons of adaptation and left the hell alone.
The way I see it, they have few options. a) Hire Snipes, and work with his limitations. b) Do an animated film with Snipes' voice. c) Recast him. Which would be extremely difficult. The only guy I think might be close is Michael Jai White, who also is older than Disney may like. However, as seriously as Snipes took the character, I doubt the direction Disney wants to go would fly with him, anyway. Without Reynolds in at least a producer role to have his back, I see a and b as a non-starter. An uphill battle, you might even say.
I honestly don't get why its so hard for them to just make a cool blade movie. Have some awesome actor portray him, get some john wick type style action in it with interesting vampire lore and boom you can have a summer blockbuster.
Oh I remember watching films in the 90s, like Blade where two guys hung out, lived together, argued like a old married couple and it still didn't look gay nor did majority lambast it as such.
After the first movie every comic and video game version of Blade was based on Snipes and retroactively adjusted his origins so he had the same power set
Got your back, Arch... It's easy. Animated Blade. Voice of Wesley Snipes, body of an ageless cartoon. Be it cartoon graphics like with the Riddik one, or tweeked CGI style like Death Stranding. (Ai could actually be useful here by animating the punching bag vampires he blitzes thru in fight scenes) We have multiple movies and shows Wesley has done over the years for voice lines, without restoring to an AI voice simulation too. Hes done so many action movies already, we should be good if he just does a bunch of lines that can be reused along with the grunts and groans of his character getting hit, and hitting back in return.
Snipes' Blade was my introduction to Marvel when I was... arguably far too young to be watching Blade. But regardless, the man owned the role and gave us one of the most iconic characters in movies, despite it being a movie with very little plot and intrigue. Because it didn't need any, complexity simply got in the way of him kicking ass. The fact that modern Hollywood is so void of creativity, spine and intelligence they can't create a "dumb action movie" really showcases how deep in the sh*t they actually are.
I remember getting a 4 movie DVD of Blade. It had Blade 1-3 and the 4th one was weird "Blade" movie that had a different actor. They should have just kept the first 3.
After Snipes showed up in the Deadpool movie, eveyone knew there can only be one blade. Make another Snipes Blade movie, for he actually enjoyed those movies.

Blade and Spawn the animated series are two absolutely perfect adaptations that should be put on a bloody pedestal, admired as paragons of adaptation and left the hell alone.
So true there is only one blade and it can't be redone it started the Marvel Universe craze
Just make old man blade. He's only a half-vampire. Just have him be old and have his final battle.
There is only one Blade, and his name is Wesley Snipes.
No Snipes, no peace
I believe this movie is dead in the water.
The way I see it, they have few options.
a) Hire Snipes, and work with his limitations.
b) Do an animated film with Snipes' voice.
c) Recast him. Which would be extremely difficult. The only guy I think might be close is Michael Jai White, who also is older than Disney may like.
However, as seriously as Snipes took the character, I doubt the direction Disney wants to go would fly with him, anyway. Without Reynolds in at least a producer role to have his back, I see a and b as a non-starter. An uphill battle, you might even say.
How could they stop the "first" black superhero movie from being made 😢. Hollywood is racist.
There’s only ever gonna be ONE Blade, no matter what they do.
I honestly don't get why its so hard for them to just make a cool blade movie. Have some awesome actor portray him, get some john wick type style action in it with interesting vampire lore and boom you can have a summer blockbuster.
Oh I remember watching films in the 90s, like Blade where two guys hung out, lived together, argued like a old married couple and it still didn't look gay nor did majority lambast it as such.
They should just do an animated Blade with Wesley Snipes voice acting.
After the first movie every comic and video game version of Blade was based on Snipes and retroactively adjusted his origins so he had the same power set
Yup, re-watching blade tonight
Got your back, Arch...
It's easy. Animated Blade. Voice of Wesley Snipes, body of an ageless cartoon.
Be it cartoon graphics like with the Riddik one, or tweeked CGI style like Death Stranding.
(Ai could actually be useful here by animating the punching bag vampires he blitzes thru in fight scenes)
We have multiple movies and shows Wesley has done over the years for voice lines, without restoring to an AI voice simulation too.
Hes done so many action movies already, we should be good if he just does a bunch of lines that can be reused along with the grunts and groans of his character getting hit, and hitting back in return.
Snipes' Blade was my introduction to Marvel when I was... arguably far too young to be watching Blade. But regardless, the man owned the role and gave us one of the most iconic characters in movies, despite it being a movie with very little plot and intrigue. Because it didn't need any, complexity simply got in the way of him kicking ass. The fact that modern Hollywood is so void of creativity, spine and intelligence they can't create a "dumb action movie" really showcases how deep in the sh*t they actually are.
Just remember my white friends. We will always have Tarzan.
Can anyone even think of an actor who could step into that role?
Still trying to ice skate uphill I see.
There is a lot of things Holly Wood can't do anymore.
I really need to watch the Blade movies.
Do yourself a huge favor and realize there are only two of them.
Do not watch the third one. 1 + 2 is the perfect combo.
@@BlazingOwnagerhuh there is a third movie?, i have only seen 1 and 2 :O
I remember getting a 4 movie DVD of Blade. It had Blade 1-3 and the 4th one was weird "Blade" movie that had a different actor.
They should have just kept the first 3.
They would print money if they just did a new blade with snipes. And the fans would go wild. Its a win win
Someone made a Blade anime in 2011, to half decent results. Luckily that was completed before the modern audience nonsense took off in 2014 or so.
There was a Blade TV show. It was not terrible without Wesley Snipes. But it was in 2006, before the big dumb.
I could so write a 40k episodic series. Advertising would be very very upset.
After Snipes showed up in the Deadpool movie, eveyone knew there can only be one blade. Make another Snipes Blade movie, for he actually enjoyed those movies.
Blade was such an awesome character. Its amazing how they cant make a new movie work.
YES! I dont mind someone taking over the role but not now. Not Disney. Snipes was plenty enough Blade in Deadpool for me this decade.
After what they did to Dune I'm relieved this isn't happening.
I wonder how much, if at all, this was influenced by Snipes' role in Deadpool.
