OMFG HOLY MOTHER OF MARY IN HEAVEN I CANT BELIEVE IT WTF WHERE ARE MY SEDATIVES AAAAHHH
other than blade his career is going the way of Stallone/Van Damme....to the shitter.

And I'm a fan too, so just halt the flames right here.
 
Wesley = now typecast as asskicking Vampire hunter. Sorry..... you;re going to be stuck like this for quite sometime.. especially if you do Black Panther.


T'CHALLA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

$50/hour, but no kissing on the lips and colors must be pre-separated
Dude, black-haired Wesley Snipes got to have simulated sex with a very much naked Jennifer Lopez in 'Money Train'. I think we have our winner.

Him giving it to Ming-Na doggy style in 'One Night Stand' far outweighs that Money Train scene by a country mile!

Wesley Snipes is an asshole. He couldn't own Denzel if he was a member of the LAPD. He opens his mouth and only stupid crap comes out, he slapped the shit out of Halle Berry when they were dating and now she's nearly deaf in one ear, he tries way too hard to be down in his movies , instead of just playing the fucking part, he's rich as hell and still doesn't pay his damn rent. He is a fool, and he is stupid. HE used to act, now he fakes.

"He used to call us the darkness brothers -- see, this was before Wesley Snipes..."

Snipes rocked in One Night Stand and he can keep making Blade films until he dies... I'll keep seeing 'em.

Wasn't he in Rising Sun with YOU THE MAN NOW DAWWWWWG too?

Rising Sun was pretty good. Lots of cute asian chicks in there too. I also liked him in The Fan.

The black man everyone at Activision can agree on
Wesley has done a lot of interesting stuff over the years...

From US.imdb.com I'm going to stop at what's currently out even though he has other stuff in progress:

Unstoppable (2004): New haven't heard anything about, doesn't even have a release date.
Undisputed (2002): WAY underrated movie IMO, definitely worth looking at.
Blade II (2002): Sweeter
ZigZag (2002): I don't believe this ever saw widespread release.
Liberty Stands Still (2002): Straight to video... I hear it's not that good.
Disappearing Acts (2000): Never saw.
Art of War, The (2000/I): I avoided this movie for years... finally saw it... pretty meh...
Futuresport (1998) (TV): Hheheh I own this on DVD.. it's not a good movie... but it has its moments.
Blade (1998): Sweet
Down in the Delta (1998): Not my kinda movie.
U.S. Marshals (1998): Destined to fail because the Fugitive was soooo good IMO. Still an ok flick.
One Night Stand (1997): Never saw
Murder at 1600 (1997): error-ridden movie in terms of facts involved in a murder investigation at the White House, and I don't normally let that kind of thing bother me... still interesting for what was on the screen though.
Fan, The (1996): Kickass, but really because of DeNiro
America's Dream (1996) (TV): Never Saw
Waiting to Exhale (1995): Not my kind of movie...
Money Train (1995): Meh, at least it has Jlo in it... before her head started to swell....
To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar (1995): You know I saw this... I'm not sure why... and even now all I can think is...wtf...
Drop Zone (1994): Not great, but not bad.
Sugar Hill (1994): New Jack City from the other side of the top of the food chain.... highly underrated IMO.
Demolition Man (1993): Kickass
Rising Sun (1993): Pairing Snipes with Connery was interesting... the movie.. average.
Boiling Point (1993/I): Hopper made this movie for me.
Passenger 57 (1992): Always bet on black... nuff said.
White Men Can't Jump (1992): Cool movie... at the time.
Waterdance, The (1992): Never saw.
Jungle Fever (1991): Thought provoking.
New Jack City (1991): Nino Brown baby.
Mo' Better Blues (1990): Thought provoking, depressing, but very good.
King of New York (1990): Not a fan of this one.
"H.E.L.P." (1990) TV Series: Never heard of.
Major League (1989): Willie Mays Hayes baby!
Vietnam War Story II (1988) (V): Never heard of
Bad (1987) (V): hahahha I still remember him in this music video.
Critical Condition (1987): I didn't even know he was in this...
Streets of Gold (1986): Never saw...
Wildcats (1986): Goldie Hawn helps inner city kids achieve their best...yawn.

Finally bought a new PSP, but then pushed the demon onto someone else. Jesus.
I give him props as an a actor. I have yet to see Russell Crowe dress up as a woman.

Well to be fair Christopher Williams one of Halle's other ex's said he did it. Halle said she'll never tell who did it and Wesley to my knowlege has never commented on it.
 
How could you guys forget his performance in Mo' Better Blues? That's what got me to notice him as a serious committed actor.

Wesley Snipes is the man. I'm so glad he got chances to show his skills in action pictures and show that you could have strong black characters in these roles and the movies still make money. (I remember McFarlane or someone form Image making some comment that they changed the Terry character to a white guy because he didn't want the Spawn movie to be percieved as a 'black' movie). Well Spawn movie sucked and it was an extremely popular comic franchise, where as Blade was an old character on the Marvel shelf and it was 4X better the movie...with two main characters being black. Not that that matters, but it just goes to show it's about HOW you make the movie, not who's in it. Stop listening to the studios and get some dedicated filmakers!

I've been a die-hard Snipes fan for a while and I just loved Passenger 57 and Demolition man. Cheezy...hell yes, entertaining.....oh God yes! Definately better than recent stuff with Segal or Van Damme or cookie cutter action heroe of the month. Wesley has showed some range in his abilities and has had a very diverse acting career. I'll give him props for being a cool leading man, and an awesome action star.

Can't wait for Blade Trinity......... :)

Damn, I'm possessed. Wonder if I can play the accordion, too?


Simon Phoenix : Wait a minute... This is the future. Where are all the phaser guns?


Simon Phoenix: Mellow greetings, sir. What's your boggle?


Simon Phoenix : Spartan? John Spartan? Oh shit! They let anybody into this century!


Simon Phoenix:
So, let me get this right. They defrosted you, just so you could lasso my piddly ass? Damn, you've been had!



[Huge Explosion, John Spartan steps from the wreckage]
Simon Phoenix : Damn, this fucker's like a New York cockroach!


Simon Phoenix : I'm sorry to say that the world has turned into a pussy-whipped, Brady Bunch version of itself, run by a bunch of robed sissies.


Simon Phoenix: I must have done something right in a previous life. Can't imagine what that could've been.


[a frozen naked criminal swings by overhead]
Simon Phoenix : I hope my butt didn't look like that! Okay, who do we have that's good? Wilkes, Patrick... Jeffrey Dahmer? I love that guy!

One of the coolest sci-fi/action comedy movies ever. Needs a DVD re-release in the worst way.

No I think you're wrong. Christopher Williams came out and said Wesly Snipes smacked Halle around, not him. The rumor on the street was that Chris did it and Chris got pissed of people coming up to him calling him names because they thought he did it.

Of course, this movie isn't bad either...



Sidney Deane : You see Billy it's like this, you either smoke or you get smoked. And you got smoked.


Sidney Deane : You can put a cat in an oven, but that don't make it a biscuit.


Sidney Deane : I don't mean to brag... but I'm the greatest!


Sidney Deane : Can anybody step in for this guy? Anybody, for Mr. Motherfucking March of Dimes?


Sidney Deane : Oh man shut your anorexic malnutrition tapeworm-having overdose on Dick Gregory Bohemian diet-drinking ass up. Leave me alone!


Sidney Deane : Billy, listen to me. White men can't jump. (Ha, try telling that to Richard Jefferson :lol)

:lol I saw him on an episode of Off The Record once (sports-based talk show that has different celeb and quasi-celeb guests talking about the sporting issues of the day), and he was pretty fucking useless.

Yes that's what I meant in the context of the message I responded to, but rereading it I could see how you would have thought I meant Chris said he did it... as you said Chris was saying it was Wesley not him who did it, though neither Wesley nor Halle have ever talked about it to the press.
