Blade 2 is cheesy? More cheese please. I know Snipes legal troubles and onset behavior are the main reasons he won't get to play the role again but I hate the Hollywood trend of casting for "young and hot." If it was a perfect world I'd cast Michael Jai White. I imagine he's too old for Holly

I was thinking the same. However the third movie, in which Blade was a supporting character was cheesy. Besides Blade III, which was only a couple of years ago. However, if they did it, my vote would be for the Brother who was in Ultra Violet B. Smith wrote: > > Blade 2 is cheesy? More chees

A reboot. No. despite that it's looking more and more likey that Snipes wont return to the role. So IMO what they should do is to recast a new Blade in the same form as the old one. Then continue on after the first two blade movies which really defined the character. Bring back the sist

that crap that was Blade 3 was obviously an attempt to see if the young white kids could take over the franchise. I thought they were silly. Jessica Biel as usual was trying to hard (still in that "I'm more than the girl from 'Seventh Heaven' mode), and the dude was funny, but not a replacement

agreed. i don't see Jai White for the role. Man, here's a a concept: how about casting the net wide for the *best* actor, not the actors with some kind of name recognition? One of my greatest joys in going to the movies is seeing a completely unknown actor in a role. Usually, we're so used to s
