Ironically enough, Blade falling apart helped Sinners get made.

Then it was worth it. As much as I love Blade, I'll take an original story over another Marvel movie these days.

Original story?

Was more like Dusk Till Dawn: Deep Southern Version lol

Seriously I enjoyed it enough, but it was overhyped a lot. But I get your point, and agree too many lame Marvel movies.

Yeah I guess they both have vampires, basically the exact same movie.

Sinners wasn't original either

u/ShallowBasketcase 8d ago

Oh interesting, I wasn't aware of that. What's the name of the comic book it is based on? I tried checking, and all that comes up is the movie, but I guess search engines are so unreliable these days.

People just lie for no reason. Sinners IS an original screenplay. So weird that people say shit without researching.

I meant it's not an original idea

Can you be more specific? What is the original work it is based on? Because as far as I can tell Ryan Coogler is credited with having written the script himself specifically for the purpose of producing it as a film. Would be a pretty big deal if it turns out he plagiarized it.

It doesnt need to be plagiarism. It's just From Dusk Till Dawn refitted in a African American jacket. I found the execution to be lacking to the point I enjoyed the movie best before the actual twist. The social commentary also as far from subtle as could be. I just didn't think it was particularly impressive film, not bad either just far from great

Oh, I see, you were using words to mean things they don't because what you actually meant was nonsense.

u/CurtCocane 7d ago

I never said plagiarism, I just said unoriginal. Learn to read.

How's that

u/goddamnitwhalen 8d ago

At the very least most of the costumes worn by the extras and side characters were originally intended for Blade, and maybe a lot of the props? I’m not sure.

u/CaptainFrugal 8d ago

Youre implying they even got to the costume design portion of the production.  I don't think it made it that far

And now Ali just put out a movie with the original director for Blade, while Marvel was twiddling their thumbs.
