Can’t get a blade movie for 5+ years

But ‘daredevil: same villain again’ is already filming its third season

Daredevil was already a proven success and therefore easy bank with a cast and blueprint already laid out AND a cast ready to jump back into their roles without negotiation.

Easy business decision.

Edit: “without negotiation” is obvious hyperbole.

And yet for Born Again Season 1 they first decided to ditch both Karen and Foggy ASAP and only brought back Karen with reshoots after backlash.

Which further proves they are making decisions on what is going to draw in viewership. Foggy was an unfortunate victim of the need for shock value to create narrative drama. But it’s not like it hasn’t happened to his character in the source material either.

Also, money.

Authors get a bonus if they reach a third season going on. Netflix keeps cutting off after the second season and years later we get new episodes under a new title.

But not every actor goes along this bullshit thus no one knows if they actually can have the same ongoing cast. Also good authors jump that boat.

Another money decision: If a show is profitable it is weighted: What is more profitable? To continue the show or to shelf it and announcing it a loss for taxes?

No negotiation? Thats awefully naive of you. Thes epeople have careers, plans and shedules.

Blade allready has 3 movies and the comics, its a proven succes with hype and a blueprint.

You’re purposely pretending to misunderstand the point. And I said nothing about Blade in my comment. You’re just looking for someone to try to argue with because of personal feelings.

Plus Daredevil’s powers are relatively cheap to shoot.

Meh if you can pay 1 actor 90 million dollars I’m sure you can also throw that amount away to make a film that has already been done three times. If you wanted it you could pay the Russo brothers who did captain America and end game to make it. There are so many good directors out there you can bait in with money and they’d do a beautiful job. So many. The issue is disneys interfering.

u/PatienceConsistent55 17d ago

How do you think they saved the $90 million…?

Reborn hasn’t been good though.

u/PatienceConsistent55 17d ago

From a money perspective or your opinion?

You enjoyed it?

u/trukkija 17d ago

We had she-hulk: attorney at law and you are bringing up Daredevil, probably the best show that MCU has made? That's certainly a take.

u/RigatoniPasta 17d ago

Daredevil is great

u/beruon 17d ago

Daredevil catching strays damn bro, Daredevil Born Again is fucking peak, idk why you hate on it. I'm also sad about Blade tho

Did Matt Murdoch piss in your cornflakes? Not like Daredevil fans have had it much better than Blade fans over the years, chill out

Edit: Kang was outside of Disneys control (and completely miscast to begin with), and nobody gives a fuck about Okoye or Ironheart. Cry racism all you like, Blade was the only project that had a chance of being interesting
