I've noticed how both the media and regular folks on the internet don't really bring this up these days. They attribute the rise of modern superhero films to the first X-Men and Spider-Man flicks and tend to ignore Blade and it's impact completely. How curious.
Before Blade came along, superhero movies were on deaths door due to catastrophic flops like Steel and the 90's Batman films. Blade came along and changed the game, and made superhero films viable to this day. Modern superhero films can all be traced back to that one movie.

Hancock was ok but it wasn't nowhere near the Blase scale.
So he was the youngest person on the set minus the little black girl?at Stephen Dorf only being 23/24 when he played Deacon Frost. Came off like a grown ass man in that role.
Throw him in the Avengers asap
Blade attaching an explosive to the back of Ironmans head just in case
Showing up to the set with a W.W.B.D wristband,so he never forgets
Theyll probaly try to make him what Batista was in GOTG.

None of the batman films flopped money wise. Critically yes

That's what I meant. The reactions to them from both critics and audiences nearly outright killed the viability of comic book films.
Came out 6 Months after 9/11. How could it be too rough? "Underworld" franchise is basically kinda of a Blade knockoff just with a woman as a "Daywalker". Now Rough in comparison to other Marvel movies? Yes I agree with that but it's not with what's in the market.
This.

Yea comic book based movies back then were not taking seriously
So...folks keep asking for a "Blade" 4, but nobody has mentioned that the Blade Trilogy are Warner Bros. films?It's a safe bet that a potential "Blade" project will be a Reboot, not a sequel.

Marvel was in debt so they licensed the movie rights out to help them stay afloat at the time. They weren't Warner Films originally, The original films were developed under New Line Cinema which at the time was owned by Ted Turner. When Ted Turner sold all his properties to Aol Time Warner they acquired the films by default.
