Wesley Snipes as frickin Blade..

THE Blade!

Not the impending MCU Blade as was rumoured (presumably to throw fans off they'd gone and got fricking Wesley Snipes back)

I think that was it for me, as mad/insane as the movie was up until then (multiple Jackmans, Cavill, Evans, Deadpool desecrating Logan's grave) seeing Snipes back as BLADE was mindblowing, and seeing him with Garner as Elektra and Tatum Gambit and Logans X23 teaming up with Jackman and Deadpool in a kind of insane ultimate Marvel universe Avengers.

but I mean ....fuckin' B L A D E!... back on the big screen! (not just a cameo either).. In-sane

(I actually saw Blade 1 at the cinema back in 98! and GDTs Blade II in 02 and been a huge Blade fan ever since.. And been imagining about seeing a Blade IV for years now).

How were his scenes?

I've always said that Wesley Snipes/Blade never got enough credit for the rise of Marvel movies. He's still one of the best.

One time in the '90s I was record shopping in New York and Wesley Snipes was right across from me sifting through music. He was a lot shorter than I expected. I just looked it up, and he's listed at 5'9, but he looked more like 5'6.

Snipes is one of those rarer short guys that can still look good in a long coat.

Maybe it was just a short black guy. Why would Snipes be in New York anyway?

His scenes were insane, seeing him onscreen again. and interacting with Jackmans Wolverine, Garners Elektra, Deadpool etc I mean who would ever imagine you'd see this on the big screen?!

'multiple Jackmans, Cavill, Evans,'

Henry Cavill's in this??

[–] AndyKing1967 (38136) 4 months ago

The cast list has him down as ‘The Cavillrine’.

Haha!

I have never seen any of the Blade movies and was wondering if Snipes talks like that in all of them or if his overbite and speech were due to a variant or meant to be a parody of some sort?

My jaw dropped when he came on screen. I never saw it coming.

He can easily reprise his role given that look. He knows martial arts and even if he isn't in his prime, what they did with the CGI and stunt double works wonders.
