- WTF Happened To This Celebrity? - The JoBlo series that examines the careers of stars and filmmakers who may have fallen out of the spotlight, and tells where they are now!
During the 1980s and 1990s, Wesley Snipes established himself as a reliable dramatic actor and action star, and launched the modern comic book movie renaissance with BLADE. But not long after the Daywalker walked off screens, Snipes was spending his time in direct-to-video movies… and in prison for tax evasion. However, since getting out it looks like Wesley's getting back into a nice groove, with a terrific, acclaimed supporting performance in DOLEMITE IS MY NAME. Could a legit comeback be just around the corner? Let’s find out in WTF Happened to Wesley Snipes!

Snipes was legitimately and justifiably upset when, a few years ago, it was widely perceived that Black Panther was the first black superhero. Where virtually no credit was given to Blade!
Everything is new in the eyes of the perpetually ignorant, progressive folk.
@Bartosz Biniek consumer? We are talking about the people creating the media here pal, not the people consuming the media.
@@darkcoeficient I often have considered that both camps are indistinguishable from each other. With the possible exception that the creators of media have larger egos, and seem more prone to display, vastly more perverse psychotic behaviors.
cause he is not a superhero,he is a badass vampire and badass vampires like him dont need titles like this.thats why.we all loved blade
@@observer8477 What defines and constitutes being a superhero? Even if Blade doesn’t fit that definition, it’s splitting hairs and pretty darn close to be totally ignored 100%. For Black Panther to be thought of as “never been done before” is a stretch when looking at a project like Blade
Demolition man was so far ahead of its time and it still holds up well today.
Wesley absolutely killed this role. and he was a badass in the Expendables.
Demolition man stands the test of time, as it's what we're facing in this time of lunacy
That was pretty cool in Expendables when they asked him what he had been in jail for, and he said "tax evasion".
@@bnhamilton HHAHA
Brock peters play as victim in To kill mockingbird 1962 with Gregory peck Paul fix Frank Overton John Megna William.Walker William windom
@@nicolamcguinness8689 wow lol are those names or just random words all smashed together, they may resemble names but didn't (joking), but damn dude/dudet, use punctuations lol.
Wesley Snipes is a talented actor as well as a skilled martial artist.I hope he comes back and I wish him the best.
He came back in Coming 2 America
That what pissed me off. He’s a great fken actor. All Chrisma.
YES! Just ask Halle Berry how well he hits.....
THANK YOU!! For recognizing the FACT that Blade was actually Marvel's first real cinematic success ever. Its been a little annoying seeing other videos covering this era and just glazing over Blade's success like it was just one of many. It was not. Blade was Marvel's last shot at making one of their characters work onscreen.
Long before the MCU obviously, it was the first one where the superhero genre was taken seriously with a street-level, brutal edge. That success laid the groundwork for every other Marvel studios release (even before Son'y's X-Men success).
How many people knew Blade was a superhero when the movie came out? It’s only seen as a superhero movie in hindsight because his character was so obscure the majority of the audience only ever knew him from the movie.
@@robertbeecroft5570 not the movie's fault normies didn't know that
X-Men was Fox's, not Sony's. Sony owns Spider-Man.
Well, as much as "normal" Film Critics hate on "Spawn", it was a good Movie at its Time and the first "rea Onhe" who was not made in the Spirit of Comics beeing "Kids Stuff".
Still like it and rewatch it.
Sure, would love it be done in a more modern Setting with more focus on the "Guy behind it" and the whole "Can only transform in a White Guy"-Thing aka the devlish aspects of his Powers beeing more of a burden and pain than a real Gift.
The "Spawn always looses in the end" as this is what a Deal with Hell does.
The Original Story is a wonderful 3-Part-Story you can not squeeze in one movie Storywise.
Sure, you need more Sreentime and fill some Gaps as a Movies Pace is different - but filling in there some of the Minor Plotlines would be great.
Make the Sub-Plot be the Main Theme and the Main Plot consist from the Comics Sub-Plots and it will work.
And Marvel could even make others have Cameos like Blade, Witchblade or Constantine appearing.
Just make it a 21+ Movie which is really gritty - as the World needs to be so. Just let the Shit happen, the Sex, the Violence.
So not put it in Scene, point it out - just plain let it happen as ugly as someone letting go under the Shower without shamelessly.
Mix Scorsese, Rodriguez and del Toro.
Wesley you deserve a major comeback. We hope to see you getting an Oscar.
We owe the cinematic success of “Black Panther” to “Blade”. Thanks, Wes. Dude had so much swag as The Daywalker.
Not just black panther. The entire MCU owes its thanks to Blade and more importantly Wesley Snipes.
Black panther was the worst marvel movie in recent history though, I wouldnt disrespect blade like that.
@@tommysanchez4757 worse movie? Worse than Captain Marvel? Thor 2? Iron man 2? Lmao. You're clearly smoking that meth and crack combination.
Yea if it wasn't for wesley snipes awesome interpretation of blade there be no black panther, as there be to this day lack of black heroe movies...
Heck there literally be no MCU, as the franchise would of dead off, is the blade movie save comic book live action movies as it was the first good modern interpretation of live action super hero movies and it set the standard, which all films today base it's formula on and clearly influence by, because all those weird by batman films directed Tim burton was of quality we see today and was ruining the franchise...
Fury wouldn't be as the iconic figure of marvel who samuel jackson embodied this fictional character that all forms of fury's likeness present day depicted as samuel jackson whether animation or live action, he'd still be a white man.
There be no falcon captian americas sidekick, and best friend, their be no war machine...
Black actors in superhero films would be still side characters to push the plot forward to make it seem like there is diversity when really is a token character.
Originally before blade he was trying to get Black Panther off the ground. Not saying he settled but Blade came out of him pursuing Black Panther.
Freaking love Wesley Snipes. Any child of the 80’s and 90’s will love him.
Indeed. Demolition Man and Blade are two of my all time favourite films. Absolutely timeless gems! 😊
@@Johny40Se7enYou guys must be pretty childish by this moment. It's embarrassing
People have done worse than him. He served his time and it is done. If ex druggie Robert Downey can make a comeback he can too. I would love to see him in more action films. Bring on demolition man 2
As long as it is not hollywood made. All hollywood can make nowadays is male hating junk. :-(
Ain't that the truth - #realtalk #factsoflife!.
He got decapitated in that movie though 🤔
Well, being drug-addicted is not a crime per se, it's rather a disease. Well, druggies do get involved in criminal activities one way or another but it's usually some "victimless crime" bullshit. It's not really the same. Anyway, I agree, Wesley should come back and hopefully will.
He deserves a comeback, he’s got talent. Hopefully he’s not cocky and arrogant as he was before
Blade was cool af. Coming out one year prior to the matrix, the camerawork in Blade was pretty stellar as well
Wesley is still a legend to me. Despite his real life issues and blade trinity issues. Hes still one of my favorite actors throughout my child hood
Major League, New Jack City, White Men Can't Jump, Passenger 57, Demolition Man, The Fan, Murder at 1600, US Marshals, Blade 1 and 2 are my favourite Wesley Snipes films.
Wildcats.
Undisputed
Money train was a good movie
@@Poundz978 I also enjoy that film.
US Marshals was a great flick. Good on them for not trying to bring back Kimble. Snipes and RDJ were in there being great. Although I think this was just before RDJ bottomed out and went to rehab. I also enjoy Passenger 57. I used to quite like Money Train but haven't really watched it since I was a youngster.
Dolemite is my name was a great comeback for Eddie Murphy but also for Wesley snipes. He was hilarious in that Netflix movie. Also that joke is underrated 27:47🤣🤣
For both him and Eddie Murphy.
@@patrickcharles6983 : Hopefully the fourth instalment of Beverly Hills Cop sees the light of day with both in the movie and Snipes playing a major role - as a good guy!.
@@anthonylewis2080 holy shit, that actually could work. It just has to be better part 3
@@patrickcharles6983 : The issue with Beverly Hills Cop 3, is that the wrong director - John Landis - was assigned, like his "masterclass" (An American Wererwolf In London) its a movie that couldn't really be placed into a specific genre - horror comedy or a tragic story.
Whereas BHC3, certainly lacks the grittiness, action and drama, it appears to be a comedy of some kind with any number of action scenes to keep up with the previous two and it fails, it definitely has a couple of lead villains (Timothy Carhart and the late John Saxon) that give Eddie Murphy's Axel Foley a run for his money, perhaps the producers and studios should consider Bilal Fallah and Adil El Arbi - as they display the kudos in their brilliant output "Bad Boys For Life"!.
Snipes should've been an absolute megastar, a damn good actor who was also a legitimately brilliant action hero AND a martial artist, charismatic, versatile, sex-symbol status, funny, talk-show savvy etc...he ticked every box.
He's been hired by Spike Lee, Eddie Murphy, and Sylvester Stallone for roles, so he's all right. Part of the appeal of the iconic Blade character was Wesley Snipes's immense charisma. I don't know how that can be replaced.
At least Eddie Murphy's keeping the fella employed...from "Dolemite Is My Name" and now "Coming 2 America"
It was irreplaceable, but as long as we get someone that copies that level of charisma, we'll be fine. And there's no question Mahershala will be that man! :)
It will be a crime if he doesn’t get a cameo in the new blade. Like a legitimate one
Wesley snipes will always be among the best actors, and my favorites of all time, love his strong personality and ego in movies he play
This man had a ton of great movies BEFORE "Blade" kicked in (New Jack City, White Men Can't Jump, Rising Sun, Passenger 57 - to name a few).I personally saw him first in Jack City and next he played total opposite and comedy gold role "White Men Can't Jump" and i was blown away. Solid fan of him ever since!
I always figured he got tired of all of the bullshit that is Hollywood and I don’t blame him. I grew up watching and loving his movies so wherever he is I hope he’s happy and in good health.
Wesley is Blade. End of story.
100%
For real. Couldn't be any other way.
And he only fear one thing.....The Tax Man
@@larsstougaard7097
Clearly he didn't fear him enough, lol.
@@Geronimo_Jehoshaphat 😄✌
"Blade single handedly brought back the Marvel Empire in the motion picture world !"James Earl jones
I have never seen Wesley turn in a bad performance in any project he’s ever been attached to. This mans career is far from over.
Wesley Snipes hasn't done THAT bad for himself. Sure he made some mistakes, but he's also been a leading man, and you can certainly find a movie or two of his online on a Saturday night.
I hope Wesley Snipes can come back. He was so good.
If there's a Blade Verse
He wanted to play blade in the MCU but they gave it to someone else
He needs to play more variety.
Nowhere near as good as he thought he was.
He deserves so much more respect in Hollywood
Snipes story shows how important it is to be nice to everyone on the way up as you will see them again on the way down the mountain.
I hope he is able to make a comeback, he is a good actor imo
You help me find Wesley Snipes movies that I forgot about and others I should watch. Wesley Snipes the Real Action Hero MVP.
Westley told us what happened to him in the 3rd Expendables movie. '' they had me locked away'', '' for what?'' '' tax evasion'' lmao
I recognize his merits. I like to think/believe that the future does not erase the past and you have done enough (in my opinion) for the black acting community in America and that deserves your praise. Then as a person, I no longer have an opinion. I don't care, really if he went crazy, if he got a big headache or whatever. He left good marks at the time and I thank him for that.
Only two actors were told by their directors to slow down their hits because they were too fast for the camera to capture!!! That's Bruce Lee and Wesley Snipes!!!!
🏆
Whilst I know that Bruce Lee and Wesley Snipes are very good at martial arts. Cameras shooting at 24fps don't pick up fast movement that well, so when you are doing things like fight scenes, often you won't want actors/stunt people to go ridiculously fast.
I'll upset the "apple cart" and mention a third : Jet Li in Lethal Weapon 4 in the fight scene at Roger Murtaugh's (Danny Glover) home and Richard Donner or Joel Silver asked him slow down as he was so quick, the scene had to be filmed again - my two cents!.
Donnie yenn
Cheech and Chong?
As far as I'm concerned Wesley Snipes and the movies created the character Blade. In the beginning Blade was a pretty unmemorable character with an afro and some colorful clothes, Wesley Snipes made everything legit, Snipes IS Blade.
Wasnt he also originally human and english?
Blade II is without a doubt the best of the series ...Love Wesley...Hope Marvel will bring you back my man You Are Blade nobody will do it better ....
I have been able to add so many great movies I've missed to my "watch later" list because of your videos. Even my wife is thankful, because we are all set on "what should we watch" for a while.
Huge fan of Snipes!!! First and foremost. Leave the action behind. He is an amazing actor and he deserves great roles.
Snipes is Blade. I was so hopeful for a monumental comeback
I'm glad he's ok and working. Wes has got 'IT' - that screen talent that just commands attention no matter what he's playing.
I love him. I am waiting to see more of him as of today. Screw what people say. We are stuck at home right now. Can we have entertainment please?
One of the best actors of all time, action or drama. He got "Black-Balled" by Hollywood. Fortunately, he's gained support and casting by those who respect and appreciate his craft. Rock on, Wesley Snipes!
I like how Wesley Snipes gave his blessing to the new guy playing Blade in the MCU.
You mean Mahershala Ali?
@@maldon3659 yes
I hope snipes at least has a cameo in the new blade movie.
@@davidclarey4461 agreed and personally I would have liked one in black panther too considering he was going to play him before blade
@@maldon3659 heard Ali is gonna be Jack Johnson in a biopic
New Jack City was a game changer for me . My best friend and I rented it in the 7th grade on a Friday night. 30 years later we still reference it quite a bit 😂. White man can’t jump is one of my favorites from that time period . I still remember the cardboard display at video store had a plastic hoop on it I wanted it so bad ! . Demolition man ! is still a ton of fun . I still watch it parts of it every time it’s on tv . I saw the first Blade in the theater and the sprinkler scene was incredible. I had never seen vampire movie like that . It was awesome. Thanks for the memories Wesley!
New jack city one of my fav movies ever.
@@riccccccardo same here
I agree with everything you said, although I would add jungle fever
Wesley Snipes is Blade.
Mahershala Ali is blade and will probs do a better job tbh
I'm interested to see Ali in it, but the mvie will 99% certainly be absolute pathetic trash, as marvel now is. Part of what made Snipes so good as blade was that movies had attitude.
@@johnnybrown7810 He hasn't even put on the trenchcoat yet. I need to see this Ali guy in an action scene before I pass judgement, but as far as Im concerned...no one can replace Wesley.
@@johnnybrown7810 no you good 😂
I was just waiting for him to show up in twilight 😳😳😳😜
Blade Trinity was by far my favorite. But I’m always up to watch the whole trilogy.
Demolition Man was perfection.
Wesley Snipes is one of my favorite actors. He invented the fight scenes that made Blade one of the best action movie ever. If Hollywood was smart they would revamp Blade with Snipes as the star. They would make a shit ton of money. People really like this dude because he is a phenomenal actor. Wesley Snipes is what the movie industry has been missing.
Disney would only mess it up
Blade isn't Blade without snipes!
Blade isn't Blade with Snipes.
Before Snipes, Blade was not a leatherclad American half-vampire with a fancy sword. He was a normally dressed, human, African-British knife thrower. Marvel completely retooled the character after the movie.
@@Carabas72 some actors truly cannot be replaced
@@gawdlysiinz5134
Welp, he has been.
@@Carabas72 100% wont be the same. The standard for someone to take over these characters is probably super high. Its like what can u do as this character to leave an imprint after such a legend has played it. Ginormous shoes to fill. Even ppl like wolverine and terminator. Maybe even ghost , iron man, deadpool, captain America, thor, loki
@@gawdlysiinz5134
I don't know. Snipes' version has always been Blade in name only, with extremely few connections to the comics character beyond "really does not like vampires". The leather isn't from the comics. Him fighting with a sword isn't from the comics. Him having powers and being half vampire isn't from the comics. Him being American isn't from the comics. His name actually being Blade isn't from the comics.
Honestly, I don't really get why they went after the license if they basically going to make up their own character.
I remember watching "Demolition Man" back when it came out, I think I even went to see it on the big screen and I thought, the future could never be like that. Now it's looking more and more like we are heading that way.
Im not down with that and not much fun. I do see what you mean though as well. We got to keep the faith with God that it will not go that way.
They are pushing very hard for this dystopian future to happen. It needs much more resistance than its getting
Yeah that’s the thing about most science fiction movies 🎥 you think 🤔 is all fake until 10 or 20 years later it starts to become science fact, just look at Back to the Future ( even though nobody invented a time machine, but the projector screens & flat screens at home 🏡 are a real thing along with iPhones 📱), Terminator ( even though machines 🤖 aren’t taking the world 🌎 yet, but our generation including the younger generation are starting to be more and more dependent on machines 🖥 for almost everything), Double Dragon 🐉 ( that one scene when people started wearing masks and curfews started been mandatory along with street thugs coming out at night 🌙), and other apocalyptic sci-fi movies 🎥 that probably came true like the destruction of the World Trade Center which was one prediction that came true I just hope that the movie 🎥 I Robot doesn’t come true like us humans hating robots 🤖 on the count that they took our jobs while humanity is suffering of poverty
Brock peters was I. Pj 1968 with George peppard Raymond burr Wilfred Hyde white
Demolition man was the first movie I saw in the cinemas in the 'big city' (grain of salt, cities aren't really that big over here). I was 12 at the time, went with my father, since we both liked Sylvester Stallone/Arnold Schwarzenneger type of movies. It was strange to also kinda be rooting for the villain in the movie. Weren't really movies at the time with villains that both be great at martial arts and had witty comments to spare. Wesley Snipes was a likeable character. And well, the actual villain was that Dr Raymond Cocteau.
Mabye rooting for the villian was also because it was a 'too clean' and suffocating future. It kinda showed such a future can't work. And in todays world, it just proves right that. It's suffocating and invokes just more hate. We now have forced 'love' and 'acceptance', but we're actually further away from accepting each other as is and living together.
And this is coming from someone who belongs to a highly discriminated group. If someone wants to hate me, let them hate me, more work for them. If they want to talk bad behind my back or insult me, then go ahead, it's just shows how little and narrowminded they are. And if it bothers me, I'll react accordingly, I can throw punches too. But this current situation... sigh... exhausting... . Most of the people in society today are that Dr Cocteau character. Being sanctimonious and wanting to shape the world as they see fit and other should follow, trying to get rid of those not agreeing to those extremes.
He could do the action hero roles and the serious actor roles .. and do both really well ..that's pretty rare
What happened to wesley snipes is that he came back for Deadpool & Wolverine (2024)
One of my very favorites, he's just beyond fucking awesome. I don't care what he does, I'll always stand by Snipes.
New Jack City is such a classic film! Damn that’s a movie that should never be remade
Not that any great film should be remade. Only bad films should be remade---but done well.
They're trying to remake it and I'm pissed off about it.
Yup terrible movie. No need to remake it.
New Jack...was also...a music era. It would be like making a movie called Juke Town. I.e., we're not redoing the 90s.
Hell Yeah Brother ... that one as well as The Crow ...Hands Off ...
Wesley is The Fire, yo! So glad he's still out there....there's a LOT of people who've messed up or made mistakes who deserve a second chance, and The Demolition Man is at the top of that list!
Yes JoBlo, the Guillermo Del Toro directed Blade 2 is most definitely my most favorite one of the Blade franchise.
it is a legit unironic masterpiece
“Blade don’t pay taxes”
-Westley Snipes
‘💯 forget taxes
😂😂
" I am delaware "
-Westley Snipes probably
I love Wesley Snipes, he's been in many of my favorite movies. Hopefully we'll get to see him in more roles going forward besides straight to video.
First Blade was my favorite of the trio. Excellent soundtrack. Also, I had no idea that Blade was comic book inspired. Thanks for educating me about something I probably should have been aware of decades ago.
Of course. Usually, the first episode of a series, is almost always better than sequels.
I remember watching Rising Sun when I was a kid and I loved it, Demolition Man is also an all time favorite and like you said in the video, it has a lot of "it was predicted back then" elements :D
On a side note, this is the most enjoyable video I've seen to this day on your channel
Blade 2 was hands down the best.....it blew my mind when it came out
Type that again please. I concur...
Snipes and Woody will always be a tag team favorite of mine!
This is brilliant ! You do such a great job staying on track of the events and changes of the actors path . While using great humor and commentary. Awesome job . I’m enjoying your videos and looking forward to seeing more of them .
Always have been and always will be a fan of Wesley Snipes.
Tonight when I get off work! It’s a Blade movie night.
Tonight when I get off work it's a fifth of Don Juilo night.
Wesley Snipes is fucking awesome.
The end.
This really inspired me to rewatch the Wesley Snipe collection....hes fun to watch...a very dynamic brutha
Wesley is criminally underrated. He's a great actor
Too TRUE👍🏾
He’s never underrated! He’s in the same league as other actors in the 90’s Will Smith, Denzel Washington, Tom Hanks, Sylvester Stallone, Patrick Swayze, Samuel L Jackson, Kevin Costner, Eddie Murphy, Bruce Willis, Jim Carey, Martin Lawrence
@@tyliekinc. 😒😒😒
@@6aliph77 what?? He is never underrated. Wesley was the man back in the 90’s
@@tyliekinc. i mean how hes veiwed now 😒😒😒 besides Arnold and stallone got all the attention
Some of my favorite performances of his, - Rising Sun, Demolition Man, US Marshals, Blade, The Art of War. Murder at 1800, Major League.
Yes, yes, yes... and loved Too Wong Foo too!
@@pollypocket2282 Never seen it actually, I remember seeing ads/trailers for it and laughing, but never got around to seeing it.
I'd have NEVER thought i'd have found mr.Snipes life so interesting! Thank man! :D
My favourite is US Marshals. He nailed it on that one!
Underappreciated masterpiece
Can't be caught!
New Jack City
"AM I my brothers keeper?"
@ 16:30 love the Mitch Hedberg impression 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 that was unexpected but on point 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Samuel L Jackson and Wesley Snipes have the best delivery of the term "Mutha F**** " I have ever heard.
Side Note: I watched Blade 3 the other day and can't remember it. I only remember watching Blade 3 lol
His Romanian roommate after watching this video: ... but you told me you loved it! 🥺
I don't care what happened lease pay his time jail he still talented actor for his role. He all ways be blade to me no matter what happened even reboot.
I grew up watching Wesley Snipes movies, Who cares if he was cocky and arrogant, That's what made him great, Atleast he would still take time out to give you an autograph. His big comeback is just 1 good script away.
he's one of my favorite actors. the end.
Öfter handschuhe rauchen?
Demolition Man was the first movie I saw Snipes in. I loved that movie. I still have no clue how to use the three shells.
Nobody knows!
Not to be a jackass, but you misspoke with "To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar" and said "To Foo Wong" lol. It is a mouthful of a title, though. Great video, love your work!
I unapologetically LOVE 'Rising Sun' ❤️
I loved his small cameo in What We Do In The Shadows tv show
I watched all these movies becasue im 34 and in90s and early 2000s we actually did watch movies :)
But I had no concious idea how Wesley Snipes' career was. Damn this guy played in so many good movies I give him a pass for every error he made! Bring this man BACK!
so true "demoliton man"
one of the best movies ever
Elizabeth Hurley looks just like Alicia Silverstone when she was young 😱😱
I’ve been saying this for years!
@@tajcee yes
Just saw Cut throat City and Wesley still got it.
GREAT NARRATOR, HE BE HAVING ME CRACKING UP!!!... I LITERALLY GET HIGH SIT AND WATCH ALL HIS VIDEO'S...GREAT SENSE OF HUMOR 😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😂😂🤣🤣🤣
Everyone involved in Demolition Man seemed to be having the time of their lives. I can only imagine the running gags and the fun behind the scenes!
They should put Wesley Snipes in the second Black Panther because Chadwick Boseman passed away too
If you're implying they should replace Chadwick with Wesley, that's not gonna happen. They're not recasting.
he is too old
He could do it! Noooo doubt in my mind! He don't look OR move like a 58 year old man. I'm nearly 60 and can move well still if I want to. He could do it. Just get in shape. He would be perfect. TChalla is a king. Who would follow a 30 year old king? 58 year old king that can still move like a 30 year old is a better choice for your leader. Craftier and much smarter and wiser and much more deadly by that age. Your killing technique would be perfection by then. You're older so you can't afford to waste a move! I would kill quickly and cleanly. Hopefully two or 3 moves at the most per opponent. He was preparing to do another Blade movie anyway until he got the news about Ali. Wesley Snipes still has the ability to ignite the screen. I think we all at least agree on that.
@@primusmossjr NO. LOOK AT STALLONE 70 AND LOOKS IT. BOTH ARE TOO OLD. GET ROBERT PATARSON AND OR THE ROCK OR THE OTHER MUSCULAR GUY FROM CHRONICLES./
They should rework the character a little and have Snipes play Whistler with M Ali as blade
I don’t like how people blame him for what happend to Blade 3 . It wasn’t his fault . That director tried to minimize his role in a franchise he helped build , they wanted him to take backseat to Ryan Reynolds and Jessica biels . He said himself they wanted to make it into a comedy. Which was lame so his actions was justified !
**doesn't appear in 70 percent of the movie and has to be replaced by the stunt double like a little baby ---- **idiots on the internet ""it's not his fault""
Man y'all ain't even touch on his Korean connections. Love this dude!
He just wasn't made for this modern crowd. He was a legend of his time. I'm an 80s baby and I love Wesley.
Wesley is still one of my favorite actors and will always be Blade💯
That was fun, reminded me of a bunch I watched growing up.
A mild correction. It's "To Wong Foo. Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar"
i love the way you read..... it brings me back to my school days when i deliberately read like that to bore people and get the teacher to stop me reading for long.....lol....the teachers got so pissed i didn't have to read out loud again.
I so enjoy your editing, speeding through a movie in 12parsecs
Is kinda funny how celebrities need an ego to succeed but too much and they may destroy their own career.
Applies to every person that has a job.
@@mysoncrumphaseveryinjury3853 not quite the same though is it
@@mysoncrumphaseveryinjury3853 Depends on your job.
Blade was wesley snipes creation he brought the character to life. His company Amen-Ra films teamed up with marvel to bring this character to the big screens.. before wesley snipes in the comics blade was actually lame, it was nothing like the live action...
Please for the love of all things Please Do MEL GIBSON I need specifics
Yes!
He did the Jesus movie and the media is mad at him.
@Ricky Tan I hope Mel Gibson directs a Star Wars movie in future😃.
He should have played an old Mad Max. But this time his road warrior skills are in planes. He goes on suicide missions by flying into camps, parachuting out, and raiding the gang hideouts of stuff for guzzoline and this life allows him to keep upgrading vehicles. Much like the Mandolorian series, but in a post nuclear wasteland and a lot more mind games and con artists to deal with who backstab and screw you over. As old mad max he is akin to a police that raids hideouts and his team of sky pirates learn from him and it leads into wars between his mercenary forces and the gangs who are actually just trying to survive. The twist being they capture Max at the end and he blows up the base which ends the wars. Nobody knows if he survived which adds to the legend. Could he be wandering the wasteland still? (maybe as an old cowboy or a ghost) That would be the final max movie.
Dude watching this video was something else, that was a great both movie and actors reviews. Thanks for that.
I liked the entire trilogy damnit. I don't care if 3 wasn't as good.
When watching blade movie i almost forgot that blade act as wesley snipe irl
His ego was a 3 sided blade, it helped, it hurt him and it affected how people saw him.
Thank you JOBIO Originals. Wesley Snipes really has done so many movies through out the years. Some of his movies I have seen. Some of them are too violent for me to watch. Thanks again.
It's one thing to walk the walk... but to "kick the kick and punch the punch"... that's next level.
He just did a cameo in “What We Do in the Shadows”... clearly he’s still around
I like What We Do in the Shadows!
That being said; I actually liked 'Murder at 1600' ! I think it was the best of those 3 "political-murder-mystery-thriller"-films that came out that year. So, Nice job Wesley. =)
