Coulda sworn there was a report when the rights to Blade reverted about Marvel having a meeting with Snipes.
These Reynolds bandwagoners have no shame, friend.
You are correct

I'd love a sequel to Blade II. That movie is loads of fun.
You forgot
To be fair, Evans was frequently cited as the best thing about those films, so it's a bit different from the egg that both Affleck and Reynolds had to wear on their face for those first superhero films that they did.
Snipes still has the moves. His role in The Player required fight scenes and he looked to be fit. I enjoyed the show. Dumb fun, but oh well.

I thought Part 1 and Part 2 were pretty equal. Both good, but ultimately I found both to be very lacking adaptations, and I didn't care for how much they changed the ending.

Actually, guek correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't one of the rumors that Snipes would basically be the Whistler to his daughter, who would be the new Blade?
Or is that happening in the comics or something?
Yeah, there was a rumor.
Yeap

Cool, thanks.
Yeah, it was a bleedingcool rumor explaining why the daughter of Blade comic had been delayed. I don't recall the Blade as Whistler rumor though.
There was definitly something with Blade Movies, I am 100percent sure.
But I really doubt that its true.
See, I don't remember anything terribly bloody either. There's a few brief squib/CGI Blood effects, and the baby (which really wasn't that gory either). But other than that and the shot of that woman's ass, it could have gotten a PG-13.
Now something like Dredd 3D or Rambo 4 or Drive, those are hard R rated films.

Reminder that this was the deadpool we got when shithead studio executives had creative control:

This is like comparing 2014 Godzilla to 1998 Godzilla. We are slowly making things right.

Have to say, if I had teleporting powers I'd also use it to avoid walking three feet forward.

where were you for fifteen, young Reynolds as Billy the god
Deadpool got my money and it was worth it, movie was so good
smh zoolander, just like anchorman 2 , sequel after soooooooooooo long and it flopped
You know, terrible "Deadpool" aside, the battle was pretty cool.
At least the Sabertooth in Origins was a step up from what we got in the first X-film.

Why are strippers at the U.N. bad when they're great at strip clubs???
Zoolander 2 should've been released in Dec. 2016
Paramount has a forte for comedy programming during the holidays, just look at Daddy' Home & Anchorman.

Eh, comedy's are great counterprogramming for the holiday season - who would've thought that Daddy's Home would gross near $150M?
It certainly wouldn't have in any other release period. But I get your point.
He's got another superhero clad in red spandex in his kill range. Thankfully, Spidey has people protecting him this time around, but Rothman's apathy towards genre films is boundless.
Didn't Sisters do well also? And that came out the same day as Force Awakens.
Would've loved to have Scott open the door in that scene at the X-Mansion, Wade makes some goody two shoes remark and Scott just yells for Negasonic to come to the door. Then while they're waiting, Wade asks him if Jean is around or dead again.
Somehow get Alex Garland to write it and we have the potential for a great movie.

So happy for Deadpool. Movie delivered and then some, it was such a blast. Ryan Reynolds and everyone involved in this deserves every bit of success.

LOL dude would be a terrible blade.
Only person I can think of that looks bad enough is idris. And he's stuck as some wasteman on Thor. Marvel should reconsider allowing him to play another character or he should get on Fox or WB
Feige and Crew will keep Rothman far away as possible.
Honestly, I struggled hard thinking up a current actor that could do it. Michael Jai White came to mind but I question whether or not he's a good enough character actor. I went with MBJ because I think he has the charisma and talent to pull off a young Blade if they went that route.
I hope so. For as long as Feige has been trying to make this deal happen, it would be a shame to see it completely shit the bed because Rothman is a pathological asshole when it comes to superheroes.
March has already had a $400M domestic grosser.
Rothman is already making dumb moves reportedly, canned Popeye and Medusa and is making a Sonic movie.
