Talk:Blade: Trinity

David S. Goyer
Blade Trinity is NOT David S. Goyert's directing debut. ZigZag is.

Snipes, lawsuit, and controversy
This current articles fails to include details on how Snipes himself felt about the film. I should think that speaking out against it and even filing a lawsuit would warrant an honorable mention. If another user would assist me in finding sources and expanding the material, it would be greatly appreciated. --AWF

 * There are plenty of sources about the lawsuit some of which can be paired with reviews from the same source which nicely echo the complaints Snipes was making about the film. -- Horkana (talk) 10:40, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

I think it should also be noted that it is the worst of the three --05:02, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

michael: well personally its not worth to critize, the movie has its good moments but the rest of it sort of disappointing


 * The reviews in the Reception section effectively point out some of the failures of the film. If there is any criticism you feel needs to be made you should easily enough be able to find a review that already makes that same criticism and then reference it in the article. Also the lawsuit mentioned above by Wesley snipes also makes significant complaints about the film echoed by reviewers. -- Horkana (talk) 10:40, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

Also should be noted how it was one big I-pod commercial--Josquius 20:45, 8 August 2006 (UTC)


 * There was quite a bit of product placement. It would seem entirely appropriate to add a marketing section to the article. A blog might not be the ideal source but it does give the ideal description of the film as The World's Longest iPod Ad (aka Blade: Trinity). "The iSelling was also noted by The MovieBlog and Out of Focus." Even the review on eopinions cites product placement as a significant con in the film. -- Horkana (talk) 10:40, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

Is it just me or is it weird to say that Jessica Biel and Ryan Reynolds stayed fit to keep to their comic book counterparts, when one does not have a comic book counterpart and the other isn't particulrly physical? Highlandlord 06:39, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
 * It is a little weird to say they did a lot of training to look like their comic book characters (you'd want a direct quote for that) but it probably is notable to mention the amount of training or research they did for the role if you have sources/citations to back it up. -- Horkana (talk) 10:40, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

When it says that Jessica Biel destroyed a $30,000 camera by shooting an arrow through the lens, was that intentional?18.239.7.182 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 18.239.7.182 (talk) 00:54, 6 September 2007 (UTC)


 * The DVD review on ComingSoon mentions the destruction of the camera is included on the blooper real, by definition a blooper is a mistake and definitely not intentional. This information could either be added to the article either as a Production detail (I recall it was mentioned around the time the film was released and it did of course happen during production) or it could be mentioned in the DVD review/Home media part of this article. -- Horkana (talk) 10:40, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

We cant criticize the film as thats opinion and this is a factually based article, whether if in your opinion this was the worst of the 3 it doesnt matter, only the movie reviews can be posted with necessary citations. thenextavailable 11:01 19 January 2009

Framing
Is it really framing? After all Blade did kill him. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.176.96.26 (talk) 14:29, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

are there plans for a blade 4? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.115.232.65 (talk) 05:57, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

Marvel Comics logo
Should it be noted that this was the first Blade film to incorporate the Marvel logo? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.193.179.29 (talk) 11:10, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

Snipes "Meltdown"/strangling director
Patton Oswalt has put on his blog references to Wesley Snipes strangling Goyer on the set and his meltdown during production, so if someone wanted to add that to the production notes you now have a source. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.188.39.196 (talk) 22:13, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Wheres the citation for this? (Thenextavailable (talk) 11:04, 19 January 2009 (UTC))

Yeah, if all this was going on the article could really do with a "Production" section. And wasn't the film used to launch the television series? Looks like another deletionist has hacked an article to pieces instead of requesting citations or helping to improve it. Anyhow found a source about Snipes strangling the director: "Wesley tried to strangle said director the day before". -- Horkana (talk) 22:44, 24 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Snipes responded many years later and rejected that version of events. -- 109.76.133.190 (talk) 02:44, 3 November 2020 (UTC)

Beast actor
Who played Drake in "Beast" mode? It's not Domenic and he's got to be 6'7. (JoeLoeb (talk) 03:43, 20 May 2009 (UTC))

Possible vandalism?
I dont think the 3rd actor listed on the actors list is in the film. could be vandalism or if he is actually in the movie maybe he should be lowered on the list since he is an unrecognizable character. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.187.157.59 (talk) 23:58, 22 September 2010 (UTC)

Unrated version Ending
Despite not wearing clothes before apparently death, Drake's body is still missing in the unrated version's ending. I think the content should be slightly rewritten into a version that it might be Drake who attacked human in the autopsy room unless there is any official material suggesting it is Blade himself since the current content seems to be based on the words from the website. -- TX55   TALK  12:19, 2 October 2010 (UTC)

Superhero film?
I know this is based on a Marvel comic and the comic was part of the Marvel Universe but is this REALLY a superhero film? Vampiric superhumanness is generally not considered part of the superhero genre. --Irrevenant [ talk ] 12:42, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
 * I'm ok with calling him a superhero. If you want to see some really questionable stuff, go look at the List of female action heroes. Niteshift36 (talk) 14:50, 24 July 2012 (UTC)

$12 million
According to the LA Times Snipes earned $12 million for Blade Trinity. Can't think of a good way to fit it into the article so leaving it her for now instead. -- 109.78.215.166 (talk) 17:16, 23 November 2020 (UTC)

Game
It seems as if there was a mobile game tie-in planned for the film. I'll add it later if it was actually released and I can find a review. -- 109.79.68.156 (talk) 16:22, 12 December 2020 (UTC)
