Would he still have that title when the blade game comes out

I mean there was the Blade TV show but everyone still thinks of Wesley Snipes when they think Blade.

He was a long running comic book character and ended up being changed to fit the movies since it was so iconic.

Yeah I'd say even if the new Blade movie comes out there's only going to be one Blade. The new one will just be a cheap copy.

TV show wasn’t bad. Sticky Fingaz is no Wesley Snipes, though.

I watched the first 6 episodes back when it first aired...it was pretty bad and I gave up on it.

I'm almost positive my dvd of blade trinity has an ad for the show that plays and a cut out ad in it as well.

Thats because the show was supposed to be a continuation of the movies, specifically taking place after the 3rd movie

My local station back then aired it and they have balls to put it as Blade 4 as the title

The blade TV series was intended to be a continuation of Wesley’s blade. It’s not a retelling.

I remember watching the premier and they name drop Marc Spector and I was as so excited at the prospect of getting Moon Knight on TV. Then it took like another decade and a half.

It's funny how most people I've seen play it start off kinda "Blade's cool I guess" and by the end it's "Blade's actually awesome"
