Tempted to throw it out there but I have a feeling when trailers start hitting this book will take another big leg up. Yeah, even though my copy lives at CGC at the moment, I'd still hold off even if I had it in hand... I think a bump will come when the trailer hits like you said, but also when the movie releases as well. I've got a lot of faith in Ali, his talent is undeniable -- but also he sounds pretty invested in the project. Key Largo Comics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bosco685 Posted July 23, 2019 Author Share Posted July 23, 2019 Wesley Snipes giving his backing on this fantastic casting announcement. Quote “To all the DAYWALKERS losing their minds right now, chillaaxx. Although the news comes as a surprise, it’s ALL GOOD. Such is the ‘business’ of ‘entertainment!’ Much peace to the MCU crew - always a fan," Snipes says. "Honor and respect to the grandmaster Stan. Congratulations and Salaam to Mahershala Ali, a beautiful and talented artist whose expressions I look forward to experiencing for many years to come. Inshallah, we will someday work together. Most importantly to my loyal fans, the incredible outpouring of love is overwhelming. I am grateful for the never-ending support. So, ‘nah fret nah worry, it’s not de end of de story.’ Welcome to the Daywalker Klique.” He now came out with an additional statement I cannot post the complete details. Quote "Vampire breaking news," Snipes wrote in a tweet. "Message from the Daywalker... Hey MCU, haven't we been down this road before? Aye yah, some mother@&%*ers are always trying to ice skate uphill ....hahaha." ComicConnoisseur 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bosco685 Posted July 24, 2019 Author Share Posted July 24, 2019 Man, how soon people want to dismiss the older Marvel films that laid the groundwork so as to support the newer MCU films. There are folks on social media bashing the older Blade films as all being trash that now Feige will be able to fix. And not just a few folks.

Blade & Blade 2 Pi**es over the majority of what Feige & the MCU have produced I have re-watched both movies multiple times, same can't be said for 70% of MCU movies.

Unfortunately, it's a 'thing' now. MCU acquires property or launching new production, disrespect the old material. The shock on a few faces when I pointed out Blade (1997) laid the groundwork for all we have now at the MCU because of its success, X-Men (2000) and Spider-Man (2002). You know - those old trash films. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
▫️ Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 Didn’t think I would be happy with whoever they chose for Blade but this is perfect casting. Then again, I also said that about Leto as the Joker. D84 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That aside, you'd think the haters would at least give it respect for featuring Norman Reedus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
csaag Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 Loved the 1st 2 Blades. Snipes would show up on Howard Stern shows and do interviews in character. Ali should kill it, loved him as Cottonmouth - best part of Cage. I thought the series really dropped once he was off it Bosco685 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blade's trilogy may not be massive. But it was powerful enough to help Ike Perlmutter realize later on Marvel needed to produce these movies for themselves if it was going to ever profit massively. That's a big historic win for the hobby. D84 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah -- and I don't have the source for it at hand but several executives and/or Singer himself are on record as saying the success of Blade (even as an R-rated flick) is what led directly to X-Men being green-lit. Believe there'd been an X-Men -script kicking around since '95 or so. It was the success of Blad in '98 that finally made it viable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
