Still has to be white man

Bro... you realize the white man was kinda first in this MCU?

No one knew this was coming and was fine with it as that.

They were actually trying to skip OVER the white man and give Blade his own film.

and always remember these are all just rumors.

But... it will be bookmarked on your behalf.

What is your official prediction for Blade now?

Soooo disappointing. :smh:

All Marvel/Disney had to do was make a Blade movie with BOTH Mahershala Ali AND Wesley Snipes... with Wesley "handing the torch" to Mahershala by the time the final credits rolled. :rolleyes:

The concept is not that hard to understand. :hmm:
Everybody WINS. :yes:

And just hire Kevin Grevioux to write the script and stop bullshitting with all these other writers who don't have a clue.
He's the guy who created the whole "Underworld" movie franchise!!! That's all they needed to GET STARTED... :yes:

Ssshhheeeiiit.... Kevin probably has at least 100 different Vampire & Werewolf movie ideas floating around in his head.
Or he can create a brand new one that has never been seen before.

That guy made 4 separate Underworld movies and each of those had a $22 million >> $35 million >> $50 million >> and $35 million production budget... in that order.

Jesus Christ, imagine if Kevin Grevioux had a Marvel/Disney-level budget of about $100 million dollars to work with??
  • The first Ant-Man movie had a production budget of $130 million.
  • The first Doctor Strange movie had a budget of $165 million.
  • But a new Blade movie doesn't even need that much. :smh:
  • About $100 million should get it done, at the bare minimum. :yes:
With those 3 guys, Disney could add ANYONE ELSE to that cast/crew and it would make at least $700-$800 million at the box office, in the USA alone... because I don't see a new Blade movie making less than "Wakanda Forever" made at the box office. :rolleyes:

I never really cared for the Underworld movies honestly but I can see your point.

When Goyer — who also wrote the script for 1998’s original Blade, as well as its hit sequel — was asked about this anecdote, he replied: “Let’s just say I have tremendous respect for Wesley as an actor. He used to be a friend. We’re not friends anymore. I am friends with Patton and I worked with Patton since so … I don’t think anyone involved in that film had a good experience on that film, certainly I didn’t. I don’t think anybody involved with that film is happy with the results. It was a very tortured production.”

^^^^

This what i been saying I always heard this. Goyer consistent (and even this article is 4 years old). He never denied Wesley was being an asshole. Wesley never denied it completely either. But the story been exaggerated.

Notice Goyer NEVER blamed Wesley solely or said it was all his fault or everyone ELSE was blameless, there was a whole LOT of fuckery going on.

Patton want to stay butt hurt? Its his right. Wesley should/could have been nicer to everyone. But it BE LIKE THAT SOMETIMES.

And Patton acting like he aint NEVER worked with a difficult actor EESPECIALLY WHITE one before

and then to hear that Patton has a reputation as a little sh*t on set too?

My issue with Patton even the REASON he gave? After decades? Aint enough for all this slander. Especially since all he was doing was glazing Goyer.

Patton since you the master storyteller? tell the people what HORRIBLE UNFORGIVABLE thing Wesley did to YOU PERSONALLY on set?

I thought it was interesting that Snipes made a point to highlight the fact he had all this power as an executive producer. I was like does this dude not realize he's basically saying it's totally HIS fault the movie turned out so shitty?

His words:

“I remind you that I was one of the executive producers of the project,” Snipes said. “I had contractual director approval. I was not just the actor for hire. I had au-thor-i-ty to say, to dictate, to decide. This was a hard concept for a lot of people to wrap their heads around.”

The movie got hijacked by higher ups.
Nobody had any power at that point. So everybody that had something to say was difficult.

I posted a quote from Snipes years later disputing patton's claims. He made it a point to highlight all this power he had over how the movie was to made.

Personally, I have no doubt this was a studio fuck up because it was clear the studio was more interested in doing a spin-off than making a really good final blade movie. However, what I didn't know was that Snipes didn't want to do Blade 3 in the first place. It kind of explains why the studio tried so hard to make Blade a secondary character in his own movie.



I mean, they tried recasting before. During the negotiations for Blade 3 they asked me if I’d consider doing the role again, but I was like nah. So, the agency I was with told me that [the studio] was going to give me ‘til Wednesday to make a decision or they were going to move on. And I was like, what? We just did two movies and made money for everybody and you’re saying to me that if I don’t want to do the third one, you’ll make it without me and find somebody else? And I was like, ‘OK, let them give it to somebody else, because we had already decided we didn’t want to do it anyway.’ We were already thinking about focusing on dramatic pieces at that time. But you know how that all turned out in the end.

Well, maybe I don’t. This could be a good opportunity for you to address some of the gossip and legendary anecdotes surrounding the production of Blade: Trinity.
Here’s the first thing. Did the third one do as well as the first two?


Not to my knowledge, no.
End of conversation! That’s all you gotta say. Say no more. Say no more. And we told them this. We told ‘em. But they didn’t listen. And then they tried to blame [me] for it. “Ohh, he’s the bad guy. It’s his fault. Use the Wayback Machine and you can find all the little articles.”

I hate to do this to Mr. snipes but he was "just a producer" Goyer was ED.

not much more to it.

Snipes need to let Goyer take the weight since he got the title.
