You won't believe what they almost did to Blade
 

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">One person familiar with the “Blade” script changes says the story at one point morphed into a narrative led by women and filled with life lessons, with Mahershala Ali&#39;s Blade relegated to the fourth lead. <a href="https://t.co/9by5jJMPnr">https://t.co/9by5jJMPnr</a> <a href="https://t.co/OjO3NKvsUw">pic.twitter.com/OjO3NKvsUw</a></p>&mdash; Variety (@Variety) <a href="https://twitter.com/Variety/status/1719742090223964454?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">November 1, 2023</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

The timing of this couldn't be any better with the South Park panderverse episode LMAO

I hadn't watched South Park in a decade but I did watch the new special and it was on point.

Definitely not interested in seeing anyone but Snipes play Blade, especially if its some woke gurrrlpower nonsense

Ali would kill it as Blade, but there are going to **** the script up 100%.

I'll watch when it hits my buddy's Plex.

out.

there is only one blade (the one who doesnt pay his taxes).

I have zero faith because Disney and the MCU are a ****ing mess, but Mahershala Ali is 100% the perfect casting to replace Snipes.

They're just ruining it because they continue to hire activists disguised as artists.

Imagine Blade taking a backseat in his own ****ing movie. What the **** is wrong with these reeruns?

Snipes being so self-serious is what makes those movies worth watching.

Ali might actually be good and that would just ruin the fun.

Snipes, OTOH, is just pure cheese and the entire time is dead-ass certain he's giving an Oscar worthy performance.

How did that guy become a legit megastar? I mean he's great in Major League and if you can just ignore the fact that he can barely dribble he's good in White Men Can't Jump. But other than that, he's so damn bad. Passenger 57, Rising Sun, The Art of War, Murder at 1600, Demolition Man, US Marshalls, Money Train.

He just takes himself so damn seriously and it feels like he's the only guy that isn't in on the joke.

that too......

This should've been a layup, and they can't even get that right.

Oscar winning actor plays badass that fights vampires. How ****ing hard is it?

It sounds like Marvel's writers, directors, and VFX people got a little too fat and happy with themselves after the Infinity Gauntlet run, and that's not mentioning the ridiculous woke direction they steered their stories after Endgame. The Marvels movie is going to bust, and you'll see panic and the cancellation of future projects. Loki has a chance to right the ship, but it's still going to be a bunch of janky multiversal stuff like incorporating old favorites like Cap, Stark, and Natasha while throwing boatloads of cash at those actors to get them to come back and save the brand like the story says.

Honestly, I think expediting the arrival of the X-Men, Fantastic Four, Galactus and the Surfer, Venom, Dr. Doom and any other properties not entirely in their control should be priority 1 right now. Better writing and VFX should be 1a, if not 1 itself. Marvel's got work to do, big time.

Wow, you shut your whore ****ing mouth when you’re talking about Wesley Snipes!

Some mother****ers always trying to ice skate up hill.. and definitely never watched Too Wong Fu Thanks For Everything!

Marvel is complete shit with everything they do and they have singlehandedly almost destroyed the movie going experience

He was awesome in Luke Cage.
