for fans of the blade film , look at this 

It proves Blade was mismanaged and the lack of foresight by new line cinema which is in truth warner bros, is paralleled by warner bros. failures in total. The multiculturalism, the collective possibilites warner bros. had access to they snubbed with blade which had great possibilities in retrospect. 

in by July 2000, blade was second only to the original superman, that started the modern superhero film financial dominance era or the batman series of films which in retrospect was far more valuable than the superman franchise. 

in 2003, the daredevil movie with ben affleck, that many in media panned as a failure did as well as either of the blade movies... hmmm so daredevil from ben affleck was hard done by. Interesting how spider man financially is the king of marvel movies. I admit, I am not a fan of spider man . I don't hate the character but it isn't my first choice of comic book characters.

interesting how by 2008, spider man is showing itself is stewarded far better than superman or batman and shows the dominance of marvel's characters in film in general. 

2010, Interesting how batman has single handedly as a character saved DC in the film world and how batman is more closely like a marvel hero than the most popular dc hero collection 

2013, when marvel succeeded with the avengers and their long form of storytelling that provided a huge challenge to dc.. and dc hasn't recovered

by 2018, the original batman movie with michael keaton was still being watched? i find that odd. 

by 2019 what do you see? I know what I see. A genre started with the original superman film. A film about a aracial white male alien  with the most individual power, saving the world.  Has been replaced by two human rich white men who use their skills plus money to battle evil. An accidental hero in a teenager from fiscally humble origins, a black prince from a magical black kingdom that never dealt with modern history, a collection of superheroes representing various cultures or views saving the earth plus other worlds.
