Guillermo Del Toro really puts his stamp on the sequel with some of his favorite things. Autopsies, monsters, weird vampires, and Ron Perlman. He's a fantastic director and I highly encourage you to seek out more of his work, particularly Hellboy 1 & 2, and Shape of Water. For more of his weird vampires - The Strain (tv show), based on books he co-wrote with Chuck Hogan.

[@synaesthesia2010]

Nomak was played by Luke Goss, a very much underrated actor who also appeared in Hellboy 2 as Prince Nuada. his former career was as part of 80s pop band Bros. whose biggest hit was a song call @When Will I Be Famous'. Asad, part of the Blood Pack, was played by Danny John-Jules, whose most famous role is as the Cat in Red Dwarf. Also, Blood is Pumping (Running Cold) by Voodoo and Serano in the nightclub scene is one of my all time favourite hard house tracks of all time0

[@Grimlock1975]

We should have seen Dwayne Dibbley as a vampire lol

[@GreyDoofus88]

And of course, let us not forget Tony Curran who played as "Priest". An avid supporter of Celtic FC, he portrayed Markus Corvinus in Underworld Evolution, Rodney Skinner in the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Weath the Musician in the 13th Warrior, and was the voice of Yuri and Captain MacMillan in Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 (to name but a few of his acting credentials).

So happy to see you reacting to this second masterpiece of a Blade movie takes me right back to my childhood.

[@kingbrutusxxvi]

I've always thought this was the best of the "Blade" films. It's got the best story, the best characters and Nomak is one of the best villains in any vampire film. It certainly isn't perfect but it's a blast to watch.

[@incogspectator3042]

🤔True, true ☝️😌

[@dylanhopkins5934]

Those were pretty much my exact thoughts too!😁The premise of Blade having to work together with his most hated enemy to fight a new strain of vampire was super dope!!! And the Reaper vampires actually felt like a threat unlike many villains I see in other movies. And it's not too often that I see a villain that I actually find intimidating for not just the hero but the villains too, or in this case the other vampires. So yeah Nomak was definitely one of the best vampire villains I've ever seen in a vampire movie. Combine that all with the amped up action sequences, the visual & practical effects, and we got ourselves a pretty damn good movie!! I'd put this and the first movie up against any of the classics!

[@pp3k3jamail]

Of course it's the best of the blade movies don't nobody say any other blade is better than blade 2. I mean it's obvious the best in the series.

[@synaesthesia2010]

Nyssa explains to Blade in a cut scene in the nightclub that for vampires pain is fleeting, so they cut themselves with the implements they we see outside the main room to experience it. as they're practically immortal, the cuts heal themselves but making themselves feel pain is to remind them that, is their way, they are alive

[@dwerenat1]

By the way the black vampire who introduced Blade is Danny Don Jules, "Cat" from Red Dwarf. The others you seem to know.

[@shanehenry7699]

I think Blade and Blade 2 are both good. Wesley Snipes does have a black belt in some form of martial arts. I want to see Blade in the new marvel movies. Team up Blade, Scarlet Witch, Wolverine, ghost rider, etc. And call them the Dark Avengers.

if they made a new blade in 2023-04 im sure they'd make the "new" Blade a non binary pink haired body positive girl boss trans! just to check off all boxes!!!! and they wouldn't call it Blade for the name is too patriarchal for the sensitive easily offended people of tODAY so they'd name the movie " THEY/THEM SHE/HER BLADE/BLADSTRESS" AND THEN to top it off make it more jokey with stupid misplaced jokes and one liners and horrible script writing and no longer wear the black outfit but wear a rainbow one topped off with over done CGI and take all practical effects away! just so it fits in the modern M-SHE_U !!!!!

[@dwerenat1]

The reason these "reapers" may remind you a bit of the vamps from The Strain is that they were written from the same dude. The more you know!

Blade and the Crow were the icons of 90's anti hero comic films!

Re: Can you blush? Works on two levels, first the racial (hence the Adolf quip), but it also begs the question of whether vampires blush?

That's one villain I felt sorry for. "It hurts no more .." really hits home.

[@josephdarklight]

quick fact laurenn luke goss who played jared nomak was originally the drummer to the 1980s british boyband Bros and wesley snipes was on record as saying that he respected and admired him for being able for luke being more than up to all the fight scenes during filming

[@LordVolkov]

Luke Goss is very underrated. Guillermo puts him to good use again in Hellboy 2.

[@clarencewalker3925]

Along with being an actor, Kris Kristofferson is also a songwriter, helicopter pilot, Rhodes scholar and former Army Ranger. He's written songs for various country artists. And...I think Lauren is in love.

I love the genuine excitement in her eyes when she sees these movies. It makes me feel like I'm watching them again for the first time myself.

[@Renegade2786]

[@amandacogger3075]

This is a brilliant film, Snipes nails the role. Norman Reedus is a great in this too. Love it when Blade blows the car a kiss lol. Brilliant reaction and happy you enjoyed it.

[@technofilejr3401]

2:30, some of the vampire effects concepts in this movie were later used in the tv show The Strain.The Strain was also by Guillermo Del Toro.

[@Fettman89]

The implications of the serum not working on Nomak is kind of wild, it took out a blood god who could also regenerate, Reapers are just on a whole other level, I could easily see them being in the pantheon of what the vampires fear like with Blade, like their monster under the bed.

[@alexoubinavillanueva5387]

This movie is an amazing work by Guillermo del Toro. The reapers are based on the vampires he ended up using in his books/TV show "The Strain". Nomak also appeared as the villain in Hellboy 2 (you should check the Ron Pearlman Hellboy movies, they are amazing), and as a note, the fat bald vampire that appears at both the start and the end of the movie is Santiago Segura, a spanish actor/director and personal friend of del Toro's. He also has a joke that only makes sense if you speak spanish, btw: when Blade uses him to enter the room full of vampires who shoot Segura after Blade uses him as human shield, one of the phrases you can distinctly hear him say right at the door is "Torrente tres". "Torrente" is a series of films directed and starred by Santiago Segura, and at the time of the filming of Blade 2, Segura was promoting the third installment, thus "Torrente tres (3)".

[@k.delpino1124]

Less than 2 years after X-Men (2000) and over a month before Spider-Man (2002). The Daywalker came in blasting and it was glorious. Wesley Snipes as actor and producer, totally owned this one. Even he was impressed with how the story and direction would go. One of the most fun filmmaking moments he ever had in his career, This was the first great sequel of Marvel's golden age on film (1998-2007). The comic-book sensibility makes an extreme approach out of the horror, suspense and action. Gullermo Del Toro truly came through in a clutch and i loved his film, Mimic (1997). Thomas Kretschmann who plays Overlord Eli Damaskinos goes on to play HYDRA Leader, Baron Strucker in the MCU. Tony Curran who plays Priest of The Bloodpack, went on to play Finn Cooley of the Kitchen Irish on Daredevil (S2). Matt Schulze who plays Chupa of The Bloodpack, made his film debut in Blade (1998) as an character named Crease. The soundtrack was fire. The video game on X-box was dope too. Blade Trinity is considered the worse of the trilogy. React to Ihe extended cut (better, tolerable version). I'm glad that Blade has been getting his just due as an character that changed the game more now than ever.

[@Danj1095]

The whole "the enemy of my enemy is.... Still my enemy?" Lol I know the sfx was sorta weird given what we're used to today (even though some of today is still spotty) but I thought it was actually cool, made him look superhuman even more than just quick camera movements

[@Brooklyn_Bleek]

AND...that's it! I'm glad you enjoyed the Blade Trilogy. All both parts of the Trilogy! Great Reactions, BTW!

[@domidium]

This was essentially the beta stage for Del Toro's personal creation of "The Strain" and the vampires in it. HIS version of vampires.

[@awakeatnight7668]

I love your reactions to Norman Reedus blowing up, and Blade killing Ron Perlman lol Blade Trinity isn't as good as the first two, but it's worth watching, even for Ryan Reynolds' proto Deadpool performance alone

[@LordVolkov]

Parker Posey is reason enough to watch once. She's hilarious.

[@theeLonelyRedPanda]

I love this movie for the sole reason they make blade and the vamps, feel like vampires that have super human abilities. yes, some places it's whacky and doesn''t really fit like the van attack, that van shoulda been shreds. Priest portion but guess that's to show you these vamps are a step up but it's intercut with the van attack and donnie yens fight, hammertime scene so idk (good/bad?). But blade vs nomak loved every second of it, you just feel the weight, plus it helps when blade gets kicked into a metal door it bends/breaks, then they do super hero leaps, nomaks regenerative capabilities with the weapon that was suppose to pop him like a balloon, then the arm break he just puts it back into place, him doing a straight massacre of the facility, also nomax literally breaks a pillar himself trying to drop it on blade, and hits blade into a pillar. but real hero of he movie the glasses. Superhero glasses OP.

[@SyntheticEvil]

This was awesome! I can't wait for you to watch the third one. It's not as great as the first two, but it's not a bad movie. Definitely a little bit more humor and one-liners than the first two, but you're adding Ryan Fucking Reynolds to the cast so.... The "top" villain is a nice touch. Still worth a watch if only to finish the series.

[@DavidGowers]

This is one of those rare sequels that stands alongside the original as being at least as good. I wouldn't say it's better, as such, but it absolutely carries the legacy well. It's just a shame that the third one kinda dropped the ball... Fun fact: the guy who plays Chupa here - with the frosted-looking hair - played the vamp in the first one who said "I've got his pig sticker!" before losing his hand to Blade's sword. He's also in the F&F movies, but that's beside the point here lol

[@michaelhoward6663]

Loved the video! I think I liked Blade 2 more just because of the director, Guillermo del Toro. I would HIGHLY recommend Hellboy 1& 2. Ron Perlman played Hellboy in both. The actor that played Nomak is the antagonist in Hellboy 2. Great as always! Looking forward to the next one!

[@jdnaz1288]

I like that both of the villains for the 2 Hellboy movies are in this, Goss & Karel Roden(who played the lawyer, Kounen), who played Rasputin in the first one.

Hi Laurenn!🙂Wesley Snipes makes an awesome Blade!!!🏆🏆🏆They will need a heck of a lot of luck to beat his performance in the 2025 reboot. I like the added cast in this one. Ron Perlman is also the original "Hellboy" in two films. Guillermo del Toro made this film and the two Hellboy films. These mutated vampires (Reapers) are a whole nother level!😱That autopsy did look real. I do feel a bit bad for Nomak. He didn't ask to be made, and in the end he took himself out. Great reactions to the very well made Blade II with the awesome Wesley Snipes, Laurenn!!!!🎬👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@Kickinthescience]

The director for this movie should’ve did the 3rd Blade movie

[@Kwondhe]

Funny thing with this movie is that Morbius was the original antagonist, but Marvel went back after considering that maybe Raimi would use him in his Spiderman movies. It turned it out to be the best to let Del Toro made up a villain with his mastery of creating fascinating creatures.

[@jalenellis3594]

"Oh, you didn't think I forgot about you, did you?" Nothing gets by Blade. If he says I'll catch you later, he means it.

[@CarefulWithThatAx]

It's funny; I remember reading The Strain when it came out (co-written by del Toro) and thinking back to this movie after he describes the "vampires" in that book.

[@Patriiiiick]

Luke Bross is a really good villain. It was weird knowing him as an 80's pop duo with his brother and then seeing him in this.

[@peteturner3928]

Bros was originally a trio, it included their close friend Craig Logan for most of their early success, he left due to chronic fatigue syndrome in '89 if memory serves. Luke was amazing in this film, he also shines in a similar-ish role in Hellboy 2 and both were directed by Guillermo del Toro. I agree though it's weird seeing him stealing scenes as an actor when he could barely even lip sync much less act on Top of the Pops back in the day!

[@steenbronkegmail1]

5:56 Norman Reedus is also in the film series The Boondock Saints ... Good cult movies .

One of the best comic book movies ever made. Awesome. Still find it hard to believe the villain was Luke Goss from 'Bros'. Now that was a makeover.

[@jean-paulaudette9246]

Shortly after this was made, Guillermo Del Toro and Ron Perlman would team up again to make "Hellboy".

[@dravenheissel]

In the group of the first vampires that Blade fights, there is a Spanish actor and film director, Santiago Segura (the one who remains alive). And when he knocks on the door for the other vampires to open it, the supposed vampire language that he speaks obviously doesn't exist, and what he actually says is the title of a movie that he was going to release around that time in Spain: TORRENTE 3, a bad taste comedy that he himself directs and stars in, playing an ex-cop, alcoholic, fascist, sexist, misogynist, homophobe, thief...

[@bninem1397]

the special effects really held up well for over 20 years old. The dissection stuff especially

I highly recommend the Underworld series of movies after these, they have a very similar vibe as the Blade movies and a very cool story and characters, lets just say Selene was a big hit.

Hi Laurenn, I am not just happy to watch another movie with you, I am supremely happy to see you smiling more and at least, to me, you looked very genuinely happy. That made everything even more enjoyable to me. It reminds me of my daughter when she was younger, a smile factory.

[@otakuwolf4ever985]

There was supposed to be this badass fight scene between Blade and Snowman, but complications caused it to be cut.

[@AmarasLGH]

If you liked the reapers consider watching the Strain. It’s a continuation on this idea and so much fun to watch !

[@Caseytify]

As has been mentioned, Ryan Reynolds is in the third one. Look upon it as a Deadpool audition. 😏 Worth the watch. Snipes is an accomplished martial artist. In Demolition Man he had to slow down, as all the cameras recorded was a blur.

[@theeLonelyRedPanda]

P.s keep in mind Priests comment in the club, about the other vamps not being pure bloods and they should all be killed. So it didnt matter if they all died tryna find the reapers. Might be an interesting topic to come back to after you watch 3.

If someone watches Blade and Blade 2, and they love them, I would recommend watching Hellboy and Hellboy 2 next. You have Ron Perlman in this movie and in Hellboy and Hellboy 2. And you have the same actor, Luke Goss, playing parts in this movie and in Hellboy 2. In Hellboy 2 he plays Prince Nuada and in this movie he plays Nomak. And he is excellent as both of these characters, a very underrated actor. I have no opinion of the newer Hellboy movie, I haven't seen it.

[@oblongbox5110]

LoveLaurenn • You mentioned a scene from this movie reminding you of The Crow. The ending scene with blade in the strippers booth, reminds me of the crow 2 City of Angels. There was a scene very similar to this one in that movie with the main character Ash. This scene basically mimics that one. David S. Goyer wrote The Crow part 2 & Blade 2, so I'm pretty sure that's why those scenes are very, very, similar.

[@toddjohnson5176]

Hey Lauren. Amazing reaction show as always. Blade 2 is next level.The cast was genius. I loved how you implemented the crow and the house of pain jump around. That was adorable. The fight scenes in this film are legit. You are phenomenal and I'm so happy you liked this movie. 🥰

[@kenpullig1652]

This movie was tailor-made for you. Great reactions. But, hey, let's give credit where it's due. The true hero here, especially in the final fight scene, is Blade's sunglasses. Never fell off, never cracked or broke. Truly heroic.

The "Underworld" series with Kate Beckinsale is also good with lots of female vampire "Bad Assery" !

Glad to see you back, hope you are doing ok. Blade II is great. Blade III is the weakest of the three but still worth watching. I'm going to put in a suggestion again for Clash Of The Titans (1981) it IS the stop motion movie you're wanting to see. It has Ray Harryhausen, the godfather of Stop Motion Animation, at the top of his game.

[@3Rayfire]

If you have not seen them then check out the two first Hellboy movies because it stars Ron Perlman as Hellboy and like this one it is directed by Del-Torro.

Nomak vs blade Fight 2 and blade vs troops is my most favorite part in this movie Lauren !!!🥰🥰🥰

[@countgeekula9143]

The first two Blade movies are awesome. The Reapers are amazing. Stuff of nightmares.

[@rodgill9376]

While Nomak is indeed a villain, he's one of the few I really feel so sorry for. He didn't ask to be a Reaper. His father made that choice for him and when he became too much to control, he rebelled. To make things worse, his father basically pit him against his own sister, who had no idea of the horrible truth of all of this. Eli Damaskinos got what he deserved in the end. The Reapers used to scare the hell out of me when I was young. I had never seen anything like them before. I thought vampires were scary enough as it is. Until they showed up. They're more or less super vampires. Imagine vampires that not only turns humans but other vampires into these creatures. Its crazy how much stronger and faster they are against normal vampires. And the fact that sliver and garlic doesn't kill them either is insane! The only downsides is if you don't feed often so often, your body will slowly kill you, your intelligence degenerates to the point you'd lose the ability to speak and you're still weak against sunlight. Also keep in mind, Reinhardt (Ron Pearlman's character) is also kind of a racist. That comment he says to Blade: "Can you blush?" is implied to be an insult towards him due to his skin color. Its also implied that his father was Dracula himself. I don't know if that is 100% true but if it was, that is pretty wild to say the least, given Dracula's disdain towards humans and most of his own kind.

[@promiscuous675]

The first two movies are undoubtedly the best, the third being 'disappointing', however the series, "Blade: The Series" (2006) is often over looked, which is a pity because it is better than it has a right to be. "Blade: The Series" obviously suffers from the lack of Wesley Snipes, Sticky Fingaz (who plays Blade) isn't half the actor nor is he nearly as charismatic, however it has good writing, a series long arc that is played well, good characters, smart villains and heroes, and adds positively to the lore of the movies. Whether or not you follow Blade through the final movie of the trilogy please watch the series too, it is worth it.

[@RaymondStarkes]

As old as this movie is in terms of vs MCU movies with technology being better these days. Blade ll is still top 5 in marvel movies to me.

Blade is pretty cool. If you liked this series you may like Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust(2000).

There is also an 80s movie of the same character that's also considered a classic but I haven't seen it.

[@VDViktor]

What always bothered me is that Blade never even listened to what Nomak had to say. Yet he immediately agreed to ally with vampires. Doesnt make sense. Nomak never made me feel like hes a power hungry megalomaniac that will drown the world in blood. If only Blade asked “ok, but wont you kill all humans after?”. Good chance Nomak would actually just off himself after having his revenge on those who wronged him. Since he was happy to die in the end anyway.
