Done To Death: Blade, and anything resembling Blade. Wesley Snipes was always an action guy, equally at home in dystopias and ganglands as long as the pace was fast, the gunfire heavy and the attitude flowing. He did appear in a handful of non-violent films, some of which are quite good, but mostly he stuck to his talents. He was sufficiently menacing as the vampiric vampire hunter Blade when the character first appeared in 1998, and soared in Guillermo del Toro's sequel, but Blade: Trinity is without a doubt the worst of the series, and it was clear the appeal was waning. Now there's talk of making that trilogy into a tetralogy, if only because Snipes wants to relive his days as Blade, which he already sort of did with 2012's pathetic Gallowwalkers, which was basically just Blade with zombies instead of vampires. But is anyone really excited about watching an ageing Snipes coming back as Blade?
