yes Mary check out blade 3 🥺🙏

[@thenotoriousgryyn342]

I love this movie, because it kinda delves into more supernatural monsters in the Marvel Universe, hopefully the new Blade Movie will show more supernatural creatures.

[@Mightymick114]

Blade 3 has a young Ryan Reynolds

[@nightfury8684]

Actually, I think the 3rd one is better than the second one. Some cool new characters along with Ryan Reynolds being in it.

[@DarkWoIfz]

Blade Trinity, Elektra movie, Fantastic four rise of the silver surfer

[@stevefisher5433]

RDJ=Iron Man Hugh Jackman=Wolverine Ryan Reynolds=Deadpool Patrick Stewart= Prof. Xavier None of that happens without Wesley snipes=Blade

[@SpiritxEnigma]

Don’t forget Tobey Maguire = Spider-Man I really hope all these characters finally unite on Battleworld in Avengers: Secret Wars. It’ll be 2 decades in the making for the OG pillars of live-action Marvel to finally share a screen together.

[@gabagool_and_psychiatry4856]

my parents took me to see this movie ( age 10).. this was after my dad showed me a triple feature on a saturday. enter the dragon, scarface, predator. my dad was not playing. lol

[@3Rayfire]

I have to say, I'll never forgive us not getting Patrick Stewart= Victor Freeze. If Batman and Robin had been a live action remake of Heart of Ice, it wouldn't have bombed.

[@joshatrandom]

Donnie Yen (Snowman from the Bloodpack) in one of his first Hollywood roles. He was also the action choreographer for the film. So badass!

[@blueroninstudios]

First time I discovered Donnie Yen was in 2000's Highlander Endgame. He had a small role, but he had an awesome hand to hand fight with Adrain Paul.

[@adamweed9788]

[@danflashes7125]

The use of Mos Def’s “I Against I” in that scene with Blade and the Blood Pack walking up to the Vampire bar is so damn good.

In the theatre, with the sound system, bass is 🔥🫨

[@legostargalactica]

“Not the ugly decor.” Best comment in the entire reaction. Just the bored deadpan delivery. Loved it.

[@rhysthomas1699]

Guillemo Del Toro really pushed the creativity of Blade 2 especially the Vampire Reapers, those things are truly disturbingly creative & I wish Del Toro did Blade Trinity.

[@asian-americanwithanopinio8954]

No, Wesley Snipes did it all himself, as told in the title.

[@prov1nzo]

Whoever did made a good choice imo !

[@Yavanna79]

And perfected them in The Strain series. :D

[@grogu9698]

Probably nobody cares, but Rush, the vampire in Prague and in the last scene of the movie, is played by Santiago Segura, a very famous actor and director from Spain who is also good friends with Guillermo del Toro, that´s why he appears in this movie and also in several other movies by Del Toro including the two Hellboy movies and Pacific Rim.

[@cablehogue599]

He was also in a great horror comedy called day of the beast. Worth checking out

[@Pelgram]

This is the kind of choreography they should have had in the Star Wars movies. With light sabres it would have been amazing

[@Bananahammock681]

The hot vamp at the start, who approaches Blade with the offer, is Danny John Jules. He's "The Cat" in a sci-fi sitcom 'Red Dwarf' which is top tier goodness.

[@williamflores7081]

Luke Goss is so great to watch in action sequences! Mans got skills. He worked with Ron Perlman and Guillermo Del toro again as the antagonist in Hellboy II. Awesome action sequences in that too

[@Renegade2786]

Funny how no movie reactors has reacted to *Passenger 57* The film that catapulted Wesley Snipes into Action man status. It is a crime.

[@k.delpino1124]

I don't get it neither.

[@StillTheVoid]

Probably a hood classic that might be up Primms Hood Cinema. A film lost in time.

[@shadowone01x99]

Agreed. I really loved Passenger 57.

A lot of people are scared to bet on black.

[@blueroninstudios]

Thomas Kretschman played Damaskinos in this film, and he also played Baron Strucker in Avengers Age of Ultron. Also this is one of the first times Ron Perlman, Guillermo Del Toro and Luke Goss (Nomak) have worked together. The second movie they would appear in together is Helboy II: The Golden Army.

[@turnerdan53]

Ron Pearlman is known for his heavy makeup work. His TV show Beauty And The Beast was 1st rate.

[@constantdvdcollector]

And Hellboy

[@gabagool_and_psychiatry4856]

his work on sons of anarchy was great. he used all his facial.

[@3Rayfire]

And talk about Star Power, Ron Perlman and Linda Hamilton.

[@bensneb360]

When Blade tells Whistler to keep your friends close and your enemies closer, he moves to the right, as you can see Scud over his left shoulder

[@richardscanlon4210]

The vampires don't want to use the UV grenades because they would kill the vampires as well as the ultravampires.

[@everlastingpass1on]

There is only one real reason to watch Blade Trinity. It has Ryan Reynolds in his first Marvel role.

[@mageeaaron2624]

This is where the fun begins!! We're back with Blade!!!! 🙏🏽💪

[@15blackshirt]

Other films by director Guillermo del Toro include Hellboy, Hellboy 2 and Pan's Labyrinth. Prior to these films, Wesley Snipes was in White Men Can't Jump, Demolition Man, Passenger 57 and U.S. Marshalls. The actor playing "Scud", Norman Reedus, is also in The Boondock Saints, The Boondock Saints 2 and The Walking Dead. Other notable performances in this include Ron Pearlman, Luke Goss, Donnie Yen, Thomas Kretschman and Tony Curran

[@gelicainouza8481]

The third movie is less liked by the majority. But it has Ryan Reynolds 👀 So, there's that. Maybe you've heard of him 😁

[@xjoemallardx]

The precursor role to Deadpool.

[@coldflamebluedragon196]

Blade 2 is Peak early 2000’s cinema and no one can change my mind. This movie introduced me to Donnie Yen and I have loved his work since then

[@BADforlyfe]

You HAVE to watch 30 days of night (if you haven't already that is), it portrays vampires the way they're supposed to be, extremely scary! It's my favorite vampire horror movie

[@jgrado3]

14:23 I’d like to think Blade didn’t hit Nomak with the UV light immediately was: as long as he’s got the alpha-reaper right in front of him, it’s the perfect chance to find a weakness the other vampires don’t know about. Turns out there isn’t one.

[@SG-js2qn]

Actually, Blade 3 might be the one in the series you need to watch the most. I won't explain why, though, because that might be a spoiler.

[@anthonydean1743]

Yes that is Ron Perlman aka Hellboy, another thing to note the new Vampire villain also played the main bad guy in Hellboy 2 The Golden Army.

[@biguy617]

This movie was directed Guillermo Del Toro who is awesome with fantasy and horror. He did Pan’s Labyrinth and the Ron Perlman Hell Boy movies. Those movies are awesome.

[@jakeladdd]

Does anyone else think mary looks different with this new set up or is it just me

[@anthonydean1743]

Scud is played by Nornan Reedus who played Daryl in The Walking Dead series & his own Spinoff series Daryl Dixon, he also Voiced The Punisher in a Marvel animated move Ironman: Rise of Tecnovor.

[@ronnyschedler24285]

Guillermo Del Torro's 2nd Vampire movie if I'm not mistaken. The first would be Cronos (1992). Definitely worth watching.

[@TheWebcrafter]

7:32 - RED DWARF? - The male 'ninja', Asad, is portrayed by Danny John-Jules. He also portrayed the character 'Cat' in the BBC sci-fi comedy series 'Red Dwarf', and Sergeant Dwayne Myers, in the BBC murder mystery series Death in Paradise. In 1986, at 26, he was featured dancing in a music video by British pop duo Wham! for their hit song The Edge of Heaven. In the video, Danny joins George Michael and Andrew Ridgeley on stage after George grabs him from the crowd.

Before film acting, Luke was a member of the quad-platinum award-winning British pop band 'Bros', with his identical twin brother Matt. He also portrayed Prince Nuada Silverlance in Hellboy II: The Golden Army, which also starred Ron Perlman, again directed by Guillermo Del Toro.

The music playing as the Bloodpack was walking into the club ("I Against I") was on a cd we had in the riot response locker room, at the last prison, where I worked. We'd play the cd, as we suited up to go stop disturbances.

[@cactusjuice8277]

It's very cool that i just realized that kris Kristofferson (Abraham) voices Ned white in the 2005 video game Gun. I knew i recognized his voice. It's so distinct.

[@MorrisB3]

Mary, I love the new intro music whatever it is.. ? It really sets the mood. ❤ Please do Blade 3! People swear 2 is the best one. You're right. This is gory. Lol. It relies on the stylized action at the time. 3 takes it down a notch.

[@munkeypantsman]

Guillermo Del Toro also created the TV series "The Strain" (2014-2017) that carried on a lot of the concepts in this movie.

[@delskioffskinov]

If you didn't already know Mary, Nomak was a drummer in a boyband from the 80's called BROS and had a couple of no1's back then!

[@blueroninstudios]

The actor's name is Luke Goss, and he and I share a birthday.

[@brossjackson]

The third Blade movie isn't actually good, but it's highly entertaining. Amongst other things, it costars Ryan Reynolds being a smart-ass, and nothing could be a more appropriate set-up for Deadpool than that. Also, there's a vampire pomeranian. How many movies can say that?

[@BatmanFan76]

Believe it or not, this movie was actually directed by the legendary Guillermo del Toro. Since this was his first time directing a movie based on a Marvel comic, he put in his usual material to make this movie work.

[@IanJenn356094]

Luke goss, the villain from this one is also the main villain for Hellboy 2

[@pillar81]

The actor who played Priest, the member of the Blood Pack who was the first member turned actually went on to play another, more fiercesome vampire in Underworld 2 named Marcus. The bearded bald guy you see in the beginning and credits scene has been in other movies that involved Guillermo Del Toro, such as the first Hellboy, where he played a train conductor mistaking Hellboy for a bad guy.

[@captainofdunedain3993]

Oh my fav Blade movie! Opening scene was great!

[@dylanhopkins5934]

Blade 2 is definitely my favorite Blade movie. Blade 1 was a really close 2nd. I just feel like the premise of this one was a lil more entertaining, and not one we see often. The protagonist having to work with the antagonist to defeat an even bigger threat. And something else that I don't often get in movies, is the villain ACTUALLY feeling like he's a threat to our MC. I liked Frost, but not once did I feel like he was actually a threat to Blade. The closest point was near the end when he got the powers of the Blood God, but even then I didn't feel like Blade had to put much effort in to beat him. And to be honest, I felt the same way about the 3rd movie villain. The villain in this one, Nomak, actually felt like he could do some real damage to Blade. He's the only villain of the trilogy to give Blade a run for his money like he did. 14:03 Well he doesn't have a UV flashlight on him. So he can't just use light whenever he wants. The lights were only given to the other vampires. He was also trying a different method that they hadn't tried yet. They only knew that silver didn't work. But Skud gave Blade the gauntlet things that had the chemical EDTA in it from the last movie that causes vampires to blow up. Remember Karen was a doctor and she discovered that EDTA was an anticoagulant that, when in contact with vampire blood, causes them to explode. So Blade was using that. Once he realized it didn't work, it was too late and he was stuck in combat. 18:05 She didn't UV right away because that was her lover. I know that it makes sense as a viewer to UV them right away, but you have to take into account the context of what's going on. If you just found out that someone you loved was turned into some kinda vampire monster, you probably wouldn't immediately think to kill them in a split second. A lot of people would probably freeze in that kinda scenario.

One part that bothers me on this movie where one of the vampires puts their hand in front of some sunlight And it burns. but it was in gloves. Leather gloves. and the original they were riding around on motorcycles during a daytime with leather gloves on. and at times just sunscreen. So that bothers me when I first watched it.

[@MorrisB3]

Something Not Mentioned Yet: Wesley Snipes stand-ins were used. There's a famous helicopter scene (not shown here) that's a stunt double. There's another where someone wore a Wesley mask. He was injured, declined to reshoot or something like that. It was the start of drama with writer David S. Goyer that spilled into Blade 3 where Wesley notoriously also had issues with the cast. Blade 2025 ain't 2025 no more. It's been in Production hell. Lol

[@dontcareisaidit]

Whenever they get around to doing the last Blade film with Wesley, or the next run of them if they're going to (cgi can easily pick up where his limitations stop him in action, plus stunt people, etc) they should bring back Del Toro, he really nailed a lot of the cool and creepy stuff all at the same time. Don't know if they could afford him though, half the names attached to this became megastars.

[@LordVolkov]

Blade Trinity is nowhere near as good as the first 2, but should still be watched... for reasons 😉

[@alicestevens8291]

Pretty much the size of it though it was that ahead of it's time when that was a fresh new thing. I've seen very few movies in a theater that involved audience participation and this was one. No joke even the old grandma's where laughing out loud and standing up going Whoo hoo and such. It's a good time and it's good for being it. The chin thing otherwise. They could have kept that. It's a LOT and I do mean it does overwhelm the composition and immersion. It's hard to keep focused on the story when that creepypasta thing keeps pulling you out of it. It was a neat idea mind you but I wouldn't have committed to that bit or at least not given that much screen time to it.

[@imarxb]

Hey Mary, nice reaction as usual. You like your comedies. Could you consider taking a look at The Man With Two Brains (1983) staring Steve Martin. His earlier films before Parenthood are so hilarious.

[@rickymoranjr9609]

the Reapers were the scariest vampire creatures (besides the Subsiders from Daybreakers) especially when their jaws opened up and the tentacle tongue shows

[@pillar81]

The funny thing is that the design of Nomak and his mutation, is that it's reminiscent of the Predators mandible. And I can't help but think that the design influenced the design of the later Resident Evil monsters, starting from a 2005 Resident Evil game.

[@shawnwacek6791]

I saw this movie in theaters when it came out it was pretty good in theaters The action was awesome with all the speakers in the in the theater room when I saw the blade 2 it was a fun watch I still love the first one because of the storyline with so much richer second one had a pretty good storyline very devastating idea of a storyline especially two characters of the family that you don't expect to be family❤

Originally subtitled as "Bloodhunt". The first great sequel of Marvel's golden age on film (1998-2007) and his return to action was glorious, less than 2 years after X-Men (2000) and over a month before Spider-Man (2002). 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). Wesley Snipes with Jeff Ward did the fight choreography like the first film while Donnie Yen handled the wire choreography. 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 with hip hop artist collaborations with dance music artist. The video game on PS2 & X-box was dope too and had the Marvel title logo before Spider-Man (2002). Blade Trinity is considered the worse of the trilogy. React to Ihe extended cut (better, tolerable version). I'm just glad that Blade has been getting more and more love as an character that changed the game more now than ever.

[@petermendoza2572]

Great reaction Mary as always 🙂, I know that you'll probably react to "Blade Trinity" but after that, since you've reacted to "The Punisher" (2004), and now "Blade" please react to "Ghost Rider" next he is another fan favorite dark Marvel Character.

[@dontcareisaidit]

My only complaint about this film was how wrong they did Donnie Yen. He's one of my favorite actors to ever do it. Just a big martial arts head here and he got that 'Bruce Lee' vibe where he can not only go with the action, but dude can really act and pull you in when the films offer him to. Was so happy how well he's been used in other films they brought him in to, but this was definitely an odd one. I never researched, but I'm assuming they had larger plans that got cut. The studio and Wesley had a verbal war during these films and we enjoyed those films because of how hard Wesley fought them on what they wanted to change.
