Morbius, the Living Vampire is the next-rumored Spider-Man-less Spider-Man movie. Burk Sharpless and Matt Sazama (two of the writers on Power Rangers) wrote a script, no one else is attached at this time, and those are also the dudes writing a Lost in Space reboot series for NetFlix

Apparently every franchise is going to be turned into a streaming-only TV series some day, the way I see at least one new announcement per day now

What are you talking about? We have... ROTTEN TOMATOES!!!!

How many times have you been talking to somebody about a movie, and they cite an RT percentage score as a reason for seeing / not seeing said movie (usually without even knowing what the percentage actually represents)?

I mean, if we can't trust a bunch of serial-overwriters who trip over themselves to make the dumbest puns as quickly as possible, then who can we trust?

The only way this would work would be if there was a buddy comedy-actioner with Blade.

You all were already thinking it. Marvel's got back the rights since New Line doesn't exist anymore and Snipes is looking for an in back into that role.

Also I would like the Mobius movie to be about how other vampires are racist towards him because he's a science vampire instead of a supernatural one.

I got bored at work and started thinking about Hollywood sequels we don't need.

You remember in Addams Family Values how there was the little need kid that crushed on Wednesday? Let's get a sequel set 10-20 years in the future where he reconnects with her and they fall for each other and he tries to become part of the family.

You can have that one free Hollywood.

I like the idea of vampires having proboscis like in The Strain but would like it better if the vampire otherwise look indistinguishable from normal humans. Just a typical guy, but the he gets hungry and a xenomorph mouth comes out of his throat to suck you.

Fangs may look sexy but according to seasoned TV vampire Nina Dobrev they are anything but in practice.

I'd say then we might as well just have a No More Heroes movie, though I think it might be too much like Scott Pilgrim for producers' liking. Still, they could get Takashi Miike on board.

Speaking of Takashi Miike, I saw Blade of the Immortal the other day and it was good. Super faithful to the comic, great performances and choreography, and the right amount of melodrama for a good Chanbara. The only thing missing from the comics was the weird kills Manji would do where you get a nice splash page of him completely dismembering someone or carving the manji symbol into someone's head*. They even got all his made-up weapons right! Also buckets of blood, but no real supergore innards hanging out or anything, which made the violence a little easier to digest and more "cool badass" than "gross look away". Some questionable wire work that is very "live action anime", too, but that's in genre. The villain has a great twist, the henchmen all have weird anime affectations where they are super strange (there's a guy who takes the heads of his victims, places them on his shoulder, and uses ventriloquism to impersonate their voices). A solid, fast moving story that you don't have to be familiar with the source material, and there is like 0 fan service or jokes to things not in the movie. If you like samurais chopping dudes up you can watch this movie with zero context and still enjoy it as a stand alone piece.

It's also like two and a half hours, so be ready for that. It's basically Logan, or a Lone Wolf & Club story... and even some Highlander mixed in with the whole "can't die but everything hurts and sucks" feel.
