In all fairness everything Disney did with marvel wasn't bad, although the writing was on the wall with the eulogy of Peggy Carter by Sharon Carter when they "woked-up" Captain America's "River of Truth" speech from Amazing Spider-Man vol 1 issue 537.

​@@ForceOfLightEntertainmentCheck out the second Blade movie it's the best from the trilogy

[@kevinnorwood8782]

This movie is the movie that literally SAVED the Marvel film studio(s) from going bankrupt. Its success led to the creation of Marvel's X-Men trilogy, and then the Tobey McGuire Spider-Man trilogy, and after that (and various other Marvel films), came the MCU. I think it is very safe to say that without the success of Blade, the MCU would never have existed.

[@aaronjackson1493]

Exactly 💯💯💯😎⚔️🗡️but Hollyweird never gave him credit for bringing Marvel films to life. Or superhero films in general. To them, it's just another movie he made. All the credit went to Robert Downey Jr, probably due to Wesley Snipes becoming known for not paying taxes. It all started with a not so popular character who's been around since '73, a vampire slayer, for Marvel to give these other actors a job.🤷Snipes in a way practically put money in their pockets🤣🤦

[@aaronjackson1493]

@@unknownchannel9001 Right. But for some reason, they treated Wesley like public enemy number one, for some odd reason. But a lotta folks done worse🙄

[@aaronjackson1493]

@@unknownchannel9001 Yeah, I heard it was because he got screwed on his contract and that they tried make the character into a joke just to include Hannibal King. Sure it's no excuse to be a dick, but messing an already established character who wasn't really popular back in early '70s? Dick move. They could've just done a movie with Hannibal and Whistler's daughter along with other supernatural characters and just done movie on them. Only with Blade in a cameo(or something). Probably would've been better than the cluster snot Blade 3. My opinion? Should've stopped at part 2 if that's the case🙄🤦

[@aaronjackson1493]

@@unknownchannel9001 They've already tried to ruin it 3rd film. Snipes is an actor who got background in martial arts since early childhood. Shotokan Karate, Hapkido, kickboxing, BJJ, Capoeira, Northern Shaolin from a Shaolin Monk. Plus the swagger, charisma, humor, macho personality etc? Can never be replicated. Snipes owned that role, not just cuz of acting and martial arts but also believable performance 😎🕶️⚔️🗡️.

Around 6 minutes in, you ladies were wondering about Blade's training. In the Marvel Comics Universe Blade trained under several skilled martial arts masters. Some of the most notable include: * Master Shen Kuei, (also known as Cat); a highly skilled martial artist and assassin from China. He is an expert in various forms of martial arts, including kung fu and wushu. * Master Chikara, also known as the White Tiger; a Japanese samurai, and a member of the mystical group known as the Five Weapons Society. He possesses enhanced physical abilities and is a master of various martial arts styles, including kenjutsu (swordsmanship) and karate. * Stick, the blind sensei associated with Daredevil. Stick is a master of multiple martial arts disciplines, including ninjutsu and kendo.

[@ForceOfLightEntertainment]

Thank you!!

[@Cadinho93]

Wesley Snipes is an extremely accomplished martial artist, so all those moves were really him. He even had to slow down because the camera couldn't keep up with his speed. Also, Blade II is inexplicably directed by Guillermo del Toro. It's one of the most insane sequels in the history of cinema and I can't wait for you two to react to it.

[@RaikenXion]

He gets like 0, NO credit for Blade, and Snipes really helped set the tone and show how Superhero movies could work in a fairly "Realistic" way. Wesley Snipes should be given a cameo in the MCU now.

[@samellowery]

@RaikenXion I'm from the future and boy do I have news for you.

[@toodlescae]

My favorite line is stil "Some mfer's are always trying yo ice skate uphill. Wesley Snipes is awesome. His speed came in handy in this role and they still had to ask him to slow down so his moves weren't just a blur on camera. If Natalie likes TWD she might enjoy *Night Of The Comet* from the 80's. It's silly and cheesy in a lot of it but parts are still kinda creepy.

[@thechosenones4375]

Yall finally got around to one of my favorite comic book movies! I'm so glad you liked it! Part 2 is just as good, maybe a little better. Snipes is to Blade what RDJ is to Tony Stark.

[@Muck006]

Snipes IS Blade, RDJ IS Tony Stark ... and neither of them can be recast these days, because Hollywood is 150% anti-masculinity.

[@lou7139]

I remember this movie being unbelievably awesome when it came out. I think I saw it at the theater. That techno music in the beginning just really gave it a unique feel. Wesley Snipes IS Blade and it is going to be hard for anyone to fill those shoes.

[@rccraig7580]

There was a time that Snipes wanted the Black Panther role and I think this may have been somewhere around the time when the MCU was just taking off. Snipes has a laundry list of martial arts skills. 5th degree belt in Shotokan Karate, 2nd degree belt in Hapkido and training in Kick Boxing, Kung Fu, Brazilian Ju Jitsu and Capoeira. Even with Snipes being 62 I wouldn't want to pick a fight with him in a Dark Alley or anywhere else for that matter.

[@johnsantos507]

Really?!😱

[@rccraig7580]

Really to Snipes being a martial arts master or to him being 62?@@johnsantos507

[@3Rayfire]

That's inverted actually. Snipes was Trying to do an afro futurist Black Panther film, but he couldn't get anyone to get on board. With that avenue closed he found his way to Blade instead, and the rest is comic book movie history.

[@gooseman_x]

Great movie despite one flaw: if the Blood God did turn everyone into a vampire, wouldn’t that effectively destroy the vampires’ food source? The writers didn’t think that one through 😂

[@ForceOfLightEntertainment]

Good point 😂

[@87Tempests]

They address that in a deleted scene. They have a bunch of humans in body bags that they're keeping around to make blood for them. You can see them being wheeled around during the club scene when they walk through the meat locker.

[@diongray2501]

Blade’s real name is Eric Brooks. His mom Vanessa Brooks was bitten by Deacon Frost. So Frost bite made him into vampire. The bite from a vampire will enter your body and begin to spread throughout your entire bloodstream then you’ll turned into a vampire. Blade is a hybrid vampire half-human and half-immortal. Blade has one weakness and that’s thirst drinking blood. Vampires need to drink blood an order to survive. Vampire abilities: immortality never aged, superhuman strengths, superhuman senses, superhuman speed, ability to regenerate.

[@punkem733]

Thanks for telling us what the movie did LMAO!!!

[@3Rayfire]

Blade ages though. "He ages like a human though." ~ Whistler

[@dsubversion]

Blade had great visuals for the time, and I didn't realized it was comic based when it came out. The soundtrack was very fitting for the time too.

[@rickbourne1376]

I remember being shocked by the amount of action and of course the blood orgy at the start.

[@aspieanarchist5439]

In case you`re confused about the vampire ages, it`s vague but Whistler said vampires do age but slower than us due to their rapid cellular regeneration, but how slow they age seems to depend on whether the vampire in question is a Pureblood ,Turnedblood, Reaper or Daywalker. Purebloods seem to stop aging once they reach a certain point in their bloodsucking development(Again, it`s vague), Turnedbloods like Frost and his gang, Marcus Van Sciver as well as Chase ,Krista Starr and Det. Brian Boone, from "Blade The Series" seem to stop aging at the age they were turned and their regeneration is somewhat limited to healing wounds after they were turned rather than before, Reapers, Pearl and Damaskinos due to having been either genetically enhanced or having been vampires so long they don`t look human anymore but like albino marshmellows or Nosferatus their inhuman features make it hard to tell if they are or aren`t aging. With Daywalkers, whether they age or not depends if you`re talking about Pureblood Daywalkers like Drake/Dracula/Dagon in "Blade Trinity" in which case his status as the first vampire means he doesn`t age at all nor do those turned by him who were the original Pureblood Vampires or hybrids like Blade and the Bad Bloods gang from "Blade The Series" who age at a somewhat retarded rate to humans but less so than Turned and Purebloods. Also, most Turnedbloods started out as familiars to Purebloods.

[@McPh1741]

This movie is what a Marvel movie should be. There is talk of a reboot, but if they plan on making it PG-13, it won’t compare to this one. When I was reading comics in the early 90s, Blade was part of a group known as The Nightstalkers along with Hannibal King and Drake. They were part of the Midnight Sons which included Ghostrider, Johnny Blaze, Morbius, and others. Great reaction as always ladies. Another great vampire movie and probably the last real vampire movie before the Twilight take over is “28 Days of Night”. It’s about a group of vampires that descend on a town in Alaska that goes under a sunset that lasts a month.

All the Blade movies are pretty solid, fun escapism. For the coming season, if you haven't seen The Exorcist or The Shining, they are the "Big Two" horror films that are somewhere within the top 20 movies of all time. Outside of those, consider some David Cronenberg. He is famous for what is termed "body horror", with truly great and thought-provoking movies like The Fly and Videodrome.

[@ForceOfLightEntertainment]

The Shining is on the way:)

[@mikebrown7799]

Hello Ladies!😊Wesley Snipes is well known as the quintessential vampire slayer in films. New Line Cinema was known as the house that Freddy built. Referring to Freddy Kreuger from the "A Nightmare on Elm Street" films. Blade II is also very good! Guillermo del Toro would actually take over as director in the second film! Blade is great again in the third film, but I feel the casting and writing for this one was not top notch, like the first two films. Great reactions to this well made film, Michelle & Natalie!!!!🎬👏👏👏👏 I think you will really enjoy the the second film, Natalie.

There is only one Blade. Wesley snipes is menace personified in this. You have no idea how hard I smiled when I saw him in Deadpool and Wolverine. Because Mr. Snipes still has it.

[@shainewhite2781]

Saw this on DVD for the first time with my family and we loved it! A lot of actors were considered for the role of Blade: Denzel Washington, LL Cool J, Michael Jai White and Laurence Fishburne, but they all turned it down. Wesley Snipes was cast after his live action Black Panther movie was shelves by Columbia Pictures.

[@jrjr5343]

I was a Junior in high school, Snipes IS BLADE!!!

[@RetroRobotRadio]

Years ago there was a "Comics Code" that Marvel followed that prevented them from doing horror comics. Eventually they decided to drop that code and do a variety of mild horror stories. Blade was one of those horror stories. Other mild Marvel horror comics from that time included Ghost Rider, Werewolf by Night, Morbius the Living Vampire and Hannibal King.

[@alucard624]

King in the comics is SOOO much better than how he was portrayed in Blade Trinity. God I hated what Reynolds did to the character ie turned him into Deadpool Lite.

[@aspieanarchist5439]

It wasn`t really that clean cut. It was more like Stan "The Man" Lee(R.I.P.) did anti-drug stories in "Amazing Spider-Man"(And under the initial Comics Code, they refused to publish because even though Stan insisted he wasn`t promoting drugs but making a cautionary tale about underage drug abuse at the time the Comics Code people said they didn`t care, they still weren`t allowed to approve the book by the government of that time who were very big on Christian values, anticommunism, respecting authority and conservative family values, avoiding anything that seemed to promote crime or the occult etc. )that forced the Code to liberalize and eventually the Code was slowly phased out altogether and replaced with a rating system and advisory warnings for more mature Comic Books similar to the ESRB for video games, FCC for TV shows or MPAA for films.

[@robertalexander8313]

The second one has a little bit of less of a main stream fill for some reason but I it is probably my favorite out of the trilogy. It has a more horror type feel to it. Now the 3rd one? I didn't really care for that one that much at all. Much of it actually annoyed me. So I really suggest the second one and then the 3rd one just to finish the trio even if like me you don't really like it.

[@samuraiwarriorsunite]

The movie that unofficially started the MCU. I have low expectations for the reboot, given Marvel's recent track record, but maybe they'll surprise me.

[@williambanks2223]

Blade is the kind of comic book character that everyone knows about but never had his own series until 2023. He started as a supporting character in Tomb of Dracula #10, had a few solo stories in the black and white magazine books. He took off in the 90's as a part of team books like Midnight Sons and Nightstalkers. This movie really brought him to the forefront. You asked about his serum, he needs a serum to suppress his vampiric hunger.

[@frankg811]

I love this movie, I had no idea what to expect when I seen it so I was totally blown away

[@DMitr0]

i just turned 14 when this movie released, went with a friend to watch it, that was 16, here in switzerland the movie was rated 14 and up, and since i loved it so much, i went to watch it a second time, a week later, alone. only did that for two movies. one of the all time greatest movies. the second one is also pretty neat.

[@TheIcemanthomas]

Blade definitely fits the mcu. U have to remember how much they’ve started setting up. The witches and wizards with wanda, dr strange, and Agatha harkness has a show coming. As well as the different monsters and monster hunters we’ve come across in werewolf by night with the bloodstone family, man thing, as well as moon knight who is also a monster hunter in the comics as well who frequently pairs with blade. Not to mention in Loki season one, mobius does mention that the tva has captured vampires before, and that they have a nightmare department. Also morbius is a Spider-Man villian who just had a movie (all be it a bad one) not to long ago, and he is a vampire. There’s ur Spider-Man connection. Lol. Blade, punisher, and ghost rider are really the only heroes that remain of the late night more rated r horror type heroes dubbed the midnight sons that haven’t been introduced. And that’s the direction the mvu seems to be pushing with these supernatural characters. Y’all have to remember how vast marvel comics is. It’s goes into every category and genre u can imagine. And the supernatural is one of them.

[@maingate7672]

Blade's serum counters the thirst his vampire DNA causes. The one critique I have about this film is the vampire god transformation, and subsequent fight are a bit hokey; ghostly, skeletal bats? I would opt for a more Lovecraftian style, formless, shapeless, shadow-like, less solid, more able to change form, to bond into a single entity, fearsome and dreadful. A shape which would be a bane to both vampires and humans.

This is when I started going to the movie theaters more when Blade came out' I was like finally a real marvel movie for me to go see and I was not disappointed. Then from there I saw X-Men, Spider - Man and of course Blade 2' the rest they say is history! You know who else was part of marvel for a short time' it was Godzilla from 1977 to 1979' I mention him now because he has a new movie coming out on Dec 1st called Godzilla Minus One and I hope you get around to watching the original Godzilla (1954) film before the new one comes out! He also has his own universe which even predates the MCU called in some circles as the Toho Showa Universe or TSU for short' it has a lot of both sequels and tie in films even if some of them are still mainly stand alone films with small connections to the larger TSU. He has a lot just in his first series alone' he's up to his 4 series with the Monsterverse and the new one coming out in December could be the start of a 5th series' but will have to wait to see how it pans out?

"Some motherfuckers are always trying to ice-skate uphill." Fun Fact: Stan Lee's cameo was cut from the film. He played one of the cops that came into the blood club during the aftermath and discovered Quinn's (Donal Logue) body on fire. Reverse Adaptation Fact: Kris Kristofferson's character, Whistler, was created for Blade's cameo in Spider-Man: The Animated Series (1994). He was liked so much by Marvel's CEO at the time that he was adopted into the Marvel universe. Proper Blade Control Fact: When Blade (Weasley Snipes) is first engaging with Frost (Stephen Dorff), he is seen charging up the ramp with his ninjato out and away from him. This is the correct way to run with any sharp instruments to prevent accidental death by impalement if said instruments are dropped while running.

Michelle, a movie for you and Natalie for Halloween would be Hocus Pocus. But you might’ve already seen it

This character falls under Blade, Ghost Rider, Werewolf by night, Morbius, Man-Thing

[@mizzywoe]

Part 2 is even better!!

[@KrazyKat007]

Have you ladies watched the comic book movie “The Crow” from 1994? Perfect for Halloween! If you girls haven’t seen it, that film is a MUST for the channel!

Blade is pretty much like Batman . night crawling menace scary calculative (ofcourse not as smart as Batman) works alone good detective /interrogator.

[@mikielsahagun6054]

Having seen this film in the cinema, it appealed to me immensely as a teenage boy as you could imagine. Even now, 20 + years later, for me it's still the absolute GOAT. You asked at the end about the serum. Despite all his strengths, Blade still has a thirst for blood. In order not to hurt or kill humans, he has a serum created to prevent that and you saw Whistler inject him with it near the beginning of the film. They did say that he was building up an immunity to it, so he needed more. As a haematologist, Karen is an expert in rare blood disorders and could theoretically create a far better serum than he previously had and that's what he asked her for at the end instead of a cure. If you're familiar with Buffy & Angel, you'll have a general idea that any substitutes for blood tend to weaken a vampire and this is shown to great effect after Blade drinks Karen's blood and goes immediately into beast mode for the finale.

Frost's sidekick, Quinn, was played by Donal Logue. He was also in "Max Payne", and several commercials for MTV, back when they still showed music videos.

Everyone keep in mind..... Disney's MCU is currently working on a new Blade movie but unfortunately [and sadly] it will NOT by R18 like Wesley Snipes version.
