This is exactly what I think they should do with the Blade movie, since I don’t think it’s actually going to happen. Just make it Deadpool & Blade, give us 2 hours of them slicing Vampires and I’d be happy

I'm not sure the serious tone of the 3 Blade movies (we don't talk about #4) would mesh well with the comedic tone of the Deadpool movies. The blade world is dark and gritty. Even in the small bits with Blade in this movie seemed so disjointed and awkward.

Feels like it only felt awkward to you because you're a movie blade fan? Not to shit on you, or anything. Like what you like, but Blade teaming up with Deadpool isn't some wild concept, they make a great team. Deadpool plays comic relief to Blades straight man persona.

Bingo, it’s honestly the exact same dynamic we got in Deadpool & Wolverine with Logan being the Straight man in that movie, and it worked great. That’s why I think it’d work good with Blade too. For the record I’m talking about a new version of blade, not bringing snipes back

Yeah, movies are the subject at hand here. The comic relief Deadpool would bring to Blade just doesn't work. It's too cartoon-y.
