My favourite universe with vampires in it.
Fuck yeah
Was hoping he was going to be in a reboot for the MCU but I am ok with this as well.
Seems like a cash grab idea for him since he just recently got out of prison, but I hope it is well made, I used to like Blade
Hopefully the extra characters from Blade 3 are all dead.
I have enjoyed all the Blade movies, certainly looking forward to it. Good for Snipes aswell, I heard that he was broke.

He's been out of prison for over a year now.
Isnt Blades film rights owned by Marvel Studios now?
If they are, i wanna see them try and figure out a way to integrate this shit into the MCU. And then Ghost Rider.
And then them both.
Pls.
Please get the original director back
Each blade film got progressively more goofy. Number 3 was not only goofy, it was just a shockingly bad production too. By the end of the film I was pretty sure I was watching a made for TV movie.

Thats really not that long in the world of film. Takes months to do pictures. So yeah it is a cash grab but theres nothing wrong with getting your business going again, Blade was Wesley's career vehicle.

He's actually said multiple times he'd like to do another Blade movie even before he went to prison.

I don't know why it's a cash grab. "Actor is going to make another movie in which he starred in the previous three."
My mom goes in heat over Wesley Snipes
Blade was such a cool series, definitely giving this one high hopes!
Eh, i'm not really feeling it. Blade 1 was fucking amazing, Blade 2 was a cool addition but Blade 3 was pretty horrible imo.
They could easily integrate the Blade films into the MCU. What goes on in the world of vampires is unknown to normal humans so there's no real continuity issues.
As long as they don't go overboard, maybe just mention SHIELD or something.

What they should do is make a 'Dark Marvel' MCU with The Punisher, Blade, Daredevil, and Ghost Rider. And having them or at least some of them in a shared universe (like The Punisher and Daredevil for sure)
Blade was epic, blade 2 was pretty decent, and blade 3 is arguably cringe worthy.
Please, for the love of god, don't bring Ryan Reynolds back. I really hope they do something awesome with this film.
I doubt any studio will touch The Punisher again
They've tried 3 times now and each time its been a flop.
Part of the problem is you need a ballsy director and a writer who can deal with the violence and a main character who is really a psychopath without alienating the audience. They tried to do the back story to make the audience empathize with Frank Castle in the Thomas Jane version and it just came across as the emo revenger not the Punisher.
The other part of the problem is I don't think Marvel will write off on an appropriately violent punisher film, since they're trying to keep options open for all these crossover films. How do you reconcile the goofy nature of the avengers or spiderman with a dude who gouges peoples eyes out and sets them on fire for selling drugs?
I was born ready, muthafuckaaaah...
Hopefully it won't be as bad as the third
[QUOTE=Karmah;45832280]Seems like a cash grab idea for him since he just recently got out of prison, but I hope it is well made, I used to like Blade[/QUOTE]
Actually Snipes is obsessed with the Blade character, once he got so worked up on one of the films when he had a disagreement with the director and wrote him a threatening note, as Blade. The man goes full Cage when he does Blade haha.
So the Daywalker shall walk again, eh? That's cool, hopefully Blade IV (or knowing Hollywood, just Blade because they think it's cool to make reboots with the same fucking name) will at least be better than Trinity.
Which is strange because that's the movie I remember the most, with vampiric lap-dogs, that one guy with the "Hi, my name is Fuck You" nametag, and of course who could forget "How about you take a sugar-frosted fuck off the end of my dick"? What the hell does that even mean, anyways? Do I need to break out a bucket of icing?
I hope this time Snipe won't be baked for most of the movie.
Still one of my favourite "black" action hero's.
I love blade, I'm so happy

I sure as hell will be.. hoping it'll be any good.
