@@JoshuaBarrioThat’s a good point. I hadn’t even thought of that. Marvel brought Malibu comics in 94. Men in Black technically would be the first successful Marvel though not an original Marvel creation. Like how Static Shock is technically a creation of Milestone comics and not DC.

Fun fact the scene where Norman Reedus is eating Krispy Kreme donuts...in the script they had his character originally eating White Castle sliders. White Castle corporation aggressively declined being in the movie and immediately made their own movie called Harold & Kumar go to White Castle.

Guys just so you know they didn't speed up filming to make Snipes appear faster he is ( at the time) or was just that fast with his punches. In fact, they asked Snipes if he could slow down his movements for easier filming. By now I'm sure some commenters have mentioned that Snipes has trained in several martial arts over the past 40+ years.

"Whistler: they took him, and turned him into the thing I hate most." (I really wanted him to say "taxes". Lol)

This was such a great sequel.....the editing and music are absolutely amazing and Snipes kills it again as Blade. The blood rage scene synced to "Calling all freaks"........OMG so good

Luke Goss and Del Torro have made two of my favorite antagonists in any film world. Nomak and Prince Nuada are fucking AMAZING antagonists and deserves so much more recognition.

This movie was basically the casting call for Hellboy and Hellboy the golden army. I hope you’ll give those two a watch after the Blade series. Also the type of “new” vampire in this movie, was the inspiration and used in Del Toro’s The Strain series. Which is an amazing series and books.

Guillermo said in interviews Wesley/Blade working with Vampires is 1 of the only reasons he agreed to do this movie. Kind of a Vampire Dirty Dozen is how he put it.

Donnie Yen was the fight/stunt choreographer on the movie, that's why he has a little cameo role. He wasn't supposed to be in the movie at all, but they liked him so much they just wanted him in there for a little bit.

@garrettvenn9022

Everyone's natural reaction to Donnie Yen.

Its crazy you say this ending had a Frankenstein feel to it because Luke Goss actually plays a character called Frankenstein in the second and third installment of a movie series titled Death Race, AND Frankenstein's Creature in a two part miniseries closely adapting the original Mary Shelley book! The latter is my favorite depiction of the story in film!

Two nice pieces of trivia: the "reaper" design was the first draft that Del Toro would end up using in his own book/TV series, "The Strain". And the recurring bald vampire is Santiago Segura, a close friend to Del Toro's who is also a known spanish actor and director. During the door scene, when he speaks that vampiric made up language to ask the other vampires to let him in, just before Blade uses him as a human shield, two words are clearly distinguishable if you speak spanish: "torrente tres". Torrente is a series of spanish films, starred and directed by Segura, and by the time Blade 2 came out, Segura was trying to gain funding (and make some marketing) of the third installment of the series, Torrente 3 (tres, in spanish).

You know a movie is loved when the sequel can pull so many great actors. I enjoy how enthusiastically you guys geek out over stuff. Great reaction!

Have you guys watched The Boondock Saints movies? That was my introduction to Norman Reedus, way before TWD

Not only is this one of my favorite Marvel movies... its one of my favorites in general. This one definitely set the bar for superhero movies whether people know it or not.

As a Marvel stan, it was the one film I was okay with them leaving alone because I don't think a PG13 Blade can do better.

Nearly 20 years later, and I think its gotten better with age. Considering the amount of Garbage movies we keep getting, Blade Trinity, while slow and boring at times, still deliver on the action, and may have some of the best fight scenes in the whole blade series. That final fight with Abby and Blade fighting through security and the vampires is one of my favorite fight scenes in any action movie, and of course the police station fight was great too. Its a great movie and the story is actually really good. If it had just been directed a bit better and had some scenes cut a little bit, it would probably be considered by many to be better than 2.

I had no idea Del Toro directed this movie (saw it on TV and didn't catch the credits), no wonder the monster effects were so good. Man knows his stuff.

The actor playing the main reaper is Luke Goss, also played the main bad guy in hellboy 2 for more del torro connections. Oddly he was also 1/3 of the British boy band Bros

I can't remember where I heard this (it was either an interview or the commentary track) that at the @1:35 scene where Blade is running down the hallway and you get a side view of him...Guillermo del Toro wanted to freeze frame it and subtitle him like in a Roadrunner cartoon with a caption like "Vampirous Daywalkerus" just like in the cartoon.

I want a movie where Keanu's Constantine, Wesley's Blade and Jennifer Garner's Elektra to all exist in one movie. All are within the Marvel universe. But I can only dream lol

For Blade One, I would give it an A or A+. And for Blade Two, I'd give it a B to B+. The effects are much cooler in number two because of the advances in the effects. Story wise, kick ass story.

omg blade 3 will be fun as hell

Now for Blade: Trinity. 😂 You're in for a ride

It’s not possible to not appreciate Blade 2 on some level. An extremely enjoyable film. Great reaction.

Cool fact: the guy who blade spares at the beginning and kills at the end is Santiago Segura, a Spanish actor and Guillermo's friend who always appears as a side character in every movie Guillermo films outside Spain. He appears in hell boy 2 for example

The Soundtrack was also badass like the one from "Judgement Night". A EDM artist coupled with a hiphop artist for every track.

The vampire that gives Blade the scroll saying the vampire nation wants to meet was Danny John Jules who played Cat in the UK TV series Red Dwarf.

In Blade 3, the "opposites having to work together" even spreads out to the cast, who hate each other IRL.

Wesley Snipes nails superhero poses!

Quick fun fact about Nomak that you (and most of your audience) are likely not old enough to know, Luke Goss was the guitarist in a pretty popular Britpop boy band back in the late 80s with his twin brother Matt and a friend, Craig Logan. Craig kinda disappeared into the background/management side of music, Matt's still making music, and obviously Luke is making movies. Very few of them make much of a splash, but he's ALWAYS good in them.

Seeing your guys crush on blade grow stronger, yep, i can relate. He's charming af.

I love Blade man, now you guys gotta do Trinity! Not everyones favorite but still a really fun movie.

The actor for Jared Nomak also plays prince nuada in Hellboy 2 the golden army also directed by Guillermo del toro and staring Ron pearlman

Even till this day.....Wesley is possibly the greatest Marvel's best character...

I guess it's a pretty common trend to have the third movie be significantly more humor focused. This can sometimes backfire, when you've attracted a bunch of people that liked one style and then change it too much. I'd say it's worth watching, regardless.

@michaelG_61

That is a good point. Blade 1 and 2 certainly have humor too though, albeit different like that corny comic book cringe humor (which I love). So maybe its the different style of humor to go along with Reynolds. I always wondered if it wasn't just that people felt Reynolds and Biel got to much of the spotlight but from the beginning its all been about Blade learning to play better with others (becoming more human) and in three he just gets more friends. The vampires in 3 are a little more on the wimpy side but thats part of the story (no spoilers)... So I don't know. I hope to see it here. Love to see the guy's reactions to movies I enjoy.

10:08 Yes it is! My man Donnie Yen himself! 🙏🏽💪

I genuinely love the third one, it's such a fun time and doesn't deserve the hate

If you're going to check out Trinity, just be ready for one of those movies to laugh at.

It will never not be absolutely joyous to me that Danny John-Jules got cast in this movie. Danny is a well-loved British comedy actor, best known for his role as "Cat" on my favourite sitcom of all-time "Red Dwarf". It's mad he got this part.

It's crazy and yet cool that you guys STILL don't have any kind of channel intro or banter before the movie. It's always just straight at it.

I didn't knew Del Toro was doing a Frankenstein movie. I really hope he sticks to the original book's description where the monster was way closer to a comic book superhuman like Jared Nomak than a clumsy brute.

Also cool to add that Luke Goss, who played Jared Nomak and Prince Nuada in Hellboy 2, another Del Toro movie, also played Frankenstein's monster in the miniseries. Everything's coming full circle.

The guy from 3:37, is a Spanish director and actor, Santiago Segura, friend of Guillermo del Toro. The phrases he says in x language are actually advertising for his (in that year) next movie and friends "Torrente 3" "David Trueba"

26:45 Needles?! those are stakes my dude!! xD

The action and soundtrack for this movie was a huge step-up from the first one.

Reason why Wesley Snipes movements look so clean is bcuz, like Donnie Yen, he has trained in martial arts since he was a kid and is like a 7th degree in karate and several degree in others. So he's a legit bad-a55 muther you don't wanna Fk with! 👊🏿💥
