Of course, with the smashing success - or good enough success, it’s hard to tell with movie companies sometimes - of the first Blade, a second was inevitable. Perhaps surprising to a modern audience would be the fact that it didn’t water down the R rating, which is a thing that does kind of happen a lot of times when things get put out these days in an effort to broaden the potential net for catching wider audiences and in turn more moolah. Anyways, the last set us a pretty good base line to judge our anticipations for this one - there’s gonna be blood, there’s gonna be some blood suckers, and there’s gonna be Blade II.
