That's kind of a coup by DC stealing Beast away when the MCU is just getting the X men rolling in.

That's okay, we're living in the Kelsey Grammer renaissance.

What if he's too tied up with 'Frasier' revival and impending 'Money Plane 2: The Rumble'?

I expect the new Blade movie to be a let-down. In the first ones, they wisely breezed through the origin story and got right down to vampire stuff, and hand super-stylized fighting.

Marvel loves tedious origin stories where the hero is almost always someone who is socially or morally constipated before becoming the same person with super powers and an enemy for some reason. I would not.be the remake will be amy different.

No way...

Sorry, I just feel that they're almost guaranteed to be a disaster.

Making movies has changed over the years, have you heard the stories of Wesley Snipes on set making the originals? Apparently that was a complete s***show and he was stoned out of his mind for most of it.

I have fond memories of working on the first set of Blade movies. They were awesome. I had no idea they were making them again. Was that even 20 years ago?

Super hero movies seem a little played out now. Flash was awful. Maybe at 90 minutes it would have been ok. Blue Beetle was watchable but really just a rehash of a dozen of other movies. Contrived and silly at parts. Could have used a reduction in length as well.

Yeah, that sounds right. It was when I first started. The first two were great the third not so much. Thought Snipes was perfect for Blade. Will have to look up what the remakes are all about. Wonder if Goyer is involved?

Snipes did such a good job of Blade that it's going to make any subsequent actor seem weak. Tough shoes to fil. It's like Hugh Jackman, Christopher Reeves, Robert Downey Jr..., etc.. sometimes an actor just fits the role so perfectly that the character itself gets associated with that actor and takes on the actors characteristics.

I'm 37 and I'll still pop in my TAS series box sets now and then. Good TV is good TV.

It's really an all timer.

Like sure, the other Fox Kids superhero shows like 90s Spider-man have a nostalgia factor, but they're no where near as good/hold up to adult eyes like BTAS
