We have not too long ago heard over the previous couple of weeks that Marvel’s “Blade” mission has misplaced its Director. This information has, sadly, arrived simply weeks from the begin of manufacturing and can probably have a ripple impact, knocking all the things again inside the MCU by months. It is claimed that Award Winning Actor Mahershala Ali is rising pissed off with the mission. (Likely resulting from the delays and him having to show down new alternatives.) But additionally that solely a 90-page script has been written to date…
THREE YEARS AGO!
This Project was introduced to us, with Ali offered as Blade THREE YEARS AGO! To solely have a 90-page script, which apparently has two very lackluster motion scenes, is atrocious.
When we consider Disney and the MCU we consider GREATNESS! The first Three Phases of the Marvel Cinematic Universe will go down in movie historical past as certainly one of the Greatest Achievements in the Industry. But now, with Phase Four, we are able to see the cracks start to kind.
Now, to be honest, now we have had some greats inside this section. We’ve had Wandavision, Shang-Chi, No Way Home – there have genuinely been some good concepts thrown about.
But is it ok?
The MCU used to place out one possibly two movies per yr, and it labored. Kevin Feige had a deal with on all tasks and was in a position to steer issues in the proper path at any time when they reared off observe, giving us one concise story in a Universe all of us may again.
But now, in Phase Four, with so many tasks on the go without delay? Kevin Feige can’t preserve management. And we followers are beginning to discover.
So what can Marvel do to right this? How can we get Blade again on observe in the MCU?
Well, it gained’t be simple and it’s, sadly, going to take a while… But it may occur.
Blade is a really well-established character inside the Marvel Comic Book Universe and as such, has had many various interactions with varied characters (lots of whom all of us already love).
But even with out the already established connections and tales, the MCU itself has its personal assure for a profitable introduction: THE SNAP!
Think about it…
When the Avengers misplaced the battle of Wakanda and Thanos snapped away half the universe, he did so with a selected give attention to half of residing issues.
Meaning, (Morbius the LIVING vampire apart) that every one Vampires throughout the world immediately had their meals supply halved!
This to me is the good technique to introduce Vampires to the MCU! With their meals supply immediately halved, the vampires’ secret world would start to unravel.
We may discover how they coped with this new state of affairs and what they wanted to do to be able to survive.
- Did the elders order their offspring to skinny out their numbers by killing their very own?
- Did Human Farming develop into a major focus?
– I imply, with so many individuals vanishing, what’s a couple of extra, taken by the Undead?
All this might propel a personality like Blade into motion, forcing him to make himself recognized to others, recruiting them for the Fight.
This concept/plot, to me, makes the most sense for a Blade entry level in the MCU. After all, you generally is a powerhouse like Disney with all the cash and affect in the world. You can solid BIG title award-winning stars.
But with no good script? Without a powerful idea? You don’t have anything.
Set the first Blade film in the latest previous and present us a world instantly post-Snap, dominated and ruled by the undead. After all, EVERYONE and ANYONE in energy generally is a Vampire. Or be turned into one…
