Copy to clipboard Sometimes, all it takes is an innocuous statement with only a slight connection to something like Marvel Studios’ Blade reboot to set the internet on fire. That’s exactly what head honcho Kevin Feige has done today, as remarks he made during a TCA panel have fans questioning now whether Mahershala Ali’s debut in the MCU will be as PG-13 as it currently sounds. The reaction, quite frankly, has fans in a (sometimes R-rated) state of distaste. CinemaBlend was on h...

When Kevin Feige first confirmed that Deadpool 3 would be retaining the R-rated nature of its predecessors despite being a canonical part of the staunchly PG-13 Marvel Cinematic Universe, fans instantly began crossing their fingers in the hopes that the upcoming Blade reboot would be subject to the same treatment. After all, trying to name more than a handful of great PG-13 vampire movies is a tough task, and the Daywalker definitely functions much better when he’s let off the leash. Howeve...

Film Reviews Whatever happened to The Future? You’re living in it (sorry for the mess—we weren’t expecting company).

CinemaBlend Copy to clipboard I only play roulette on occasion, but when I do, I always bet on black. And it’s all because of Wesley Snipes, who was the predominant Black action hero of the 1990s.

I don’t think it’s hyperbolic to say this, but without Blade, there likely wouldn’t ...

During a year of unpredictable events, the internet has found solace in turning almost anything into a meme. From adding large hoop earrings and long press-on nails to the COVID-19 cell image, folks online have deemed anything and anyone is fair game.  Former NBA star  Dwyane Wade is now the latest celebrity to fall victim to social media’s favorite pastime. On Wednesday, Dec. 9, the former Miami Heat player’s neon green hairstyle went viral after someone on the internet edited tennis su...
