Morbius or Dracula

[Darth_zaiyen]

Say there was a chance for Morbius to be in Blade 3, who would you rather be the main villian? Dracula or Morbius? There seems to be a lot of debate over the 2. I myself would prefer Morbius, but who would YOU like?

--I like the character of Morbius, but he doesn't really seem like an all-out villain... more like a misunderstood neutral character.
Also, it had been previously reported that no other Marvel characters would appear in any of the Blade movies, due to all the trouble they had after the first film was released.
Additionally, Goyer or Del Toro (don't remember which) said that Nomak in Blade II was sort of their version of Morbius and that they based him on the living vampire.
With all of that said, I'd rather see Dracula... I think they should finish off the series with a bang.
Then if the Blade TV series takes place when Blade is younger, they could still use Dracula as the big bad for the series.

I would love to see Dracula, and it only makes sense. Don't forget where Blade got his start, right in Tomb Of Dracula! Since Drac is in the public domain, I really don't see why he's not being considered. If you were a vampire hunter, why not go after the Big Daddy of vampires? That movie would rock!

--I couldn't agree more.

I think they should go with Dracula. What better way to end the trilogy than to have a showdown between the king of the vampires and the ultimate vampire hunter.

While I am a great believer in using established MARVEL(TM) supporting characters whenever & wherever possible, I do not consider MICHAEL MORBIUS(TM) to be A True Vampire, since he is a diseased Homo sapiens.

COUNT DRACULA, on the other hand, is Pure Evil, & his powers would be a more fitting match for BLADE(TM) as he has been presented cinematically, to date.
