The actor stephen dorff He is remembered by many thanks to having given life to Deacon Frost in ‘Blade’, the successful film starring Wesley Snipes in 1998. However, lately he has given more talk for his statements, such as when he stated that he felt ashamed for Scarlett Johansson and that ‘Black Widow’ seemed rubbish to him, only to admit shortly after that “I was saying bullshit“.
“This other crap is just embarrassing.”
Now Dorff has once again lashed out at Marvel, as he believes that most of the movies that have been made in recent years are a “embarrassing garbage“, taking advantage of the incident to make fun in The Daily Beast of the new version of ‘Blade’ that the studio is preparing with Mahershala Ali instead of snipes:
If only comic book movies were more like when I started, when we did ‘Blade’, or the few that have been decent over the years, like when Nolan made ‘The Dark Knight’ and reinvented Tim Burton’s ‘Batman’ , who is obviously a genius… when they were interesting, like when Norrington did Blade, and Guillermo [del Toro] he was wasting his time on her. But all this other crap is just embarrassing, you know what I mean? God bless them, they make a lot of money, but their movies are crap. And no one will remember them. No one is going to remember ‘Black Adam’ at the end of the day. I didn’t even watch that movie, it looked so bad. Marvel is used to me criticizing them. How are you doing with that PG Blade movie, which doesn’t get a director? Because anyone who goes there is going to laugh at everyone, because we already did it and we did the best. There is no Steve Norrington out there.
For now, it is quite clear that Dorff talks a little for the sake of talking, since he mentions ‘Black Adam’ without having seen it, and also giving the impression that he believes it is a Marvel movie when in fact it is part of the DC Extended Universe. The other option is that he got the title wrong and he was actually talking about ‘Black Panther: Wakanda Forever’, recently nominated for 5 Oscars…
Having said that, Let’s see if he doesn’t end up being right with the new version of ‘Blade’Well, at Marvel they have encountered several problems that forced them to make changes to their release schedule. We’ll have to see if all the changes made since then help make the film worthwhile, but it wouldn’t surprise me if there’s some truth to the fact that they did their best…
