It was a vampire movie. Vampires are part of Christian culture.

2019-07-29 03:42:03 UTC  

nah vampires r jews

2019-07-29 03:42:07 UTC  

kek

2019-07-29 03:42:09 UTC  

the irony of a muslim running around with crucifixes

2019-07-29 03:42:17 UTC  

Either way, there's no muzzies involved AFAIK.

2019-07-29 03:42:21 UTC  

exclusively? I mean, eastern europe had plenty of vampire-like myths, and plenty of muslim neighbors

2019-07-29 03:42:48 UTC  

But the myths don't mention Muslims, do they?

2019-07-29 03:43:14 UTC  

no, but they don't mention god or christ either, mostly local deities

2019-07-29 03:44:10 UTC  

I think ukraine had something called a chernobog or some shit

2019-07-29 03:44:11 UTC  

Still, to "rebrand" Blade as a muslim would necessitate some scene or line of dialogue, and that would fracture the suspension of disbelief—at the very least.

2019-07-29 03:44:29 UTC  

Blade in the Comics was a christian, yes. While not a devout follower he was agnostic in a sense.

2019-07-29 03:44:29 UTC  

I suppose

2019-07-29 03:44:44 UTC  

ah, ok then

2019-07-29 03:44:46 UTC  

Let's just say, as an author myself, it's not a risk I'd consider necessary, nor "worth it."

2019-07-29 03:45:15 UTC  

He would also visit an old preacher character during one story arc where he nearly found faith until he learned the preacher was a vampire abusing his attempt to find faith to kill off other vampires pushing in on his territory

2019-07-29 03:45:45 UTC  

Oof.

2019-07-29 03:45:57 UTC  

So yeah, get woke, go broke strikes again.

2019-07-29 03:46:07 UTC  

well that settles it, I stand corrected

2019-07-29 03:46:15 UTC  

"Some muthafuckas always tryin' to ice-skate uphill."

2019-07-29 03:46:15 UTC  

Blade's later encounters with characters like ghost-rider also makes him question as to whether or not a God does exist if such creatures are allowed to run rampant since they do exist.

2019-07-29 03:46:30 UTC  

Still, I'm now intrigued with the concept of muslim vampire hunters

2019-07-29 03:46:50 UTC  

Kek.

2019-07-29 03:46:51 UTC  

Well their vampires aren't really the same, and laughably are easier to handle in some ways.

2019-07-29 03:47:14 UTC  

Oof.

2019-07-29 03:47:22 UTC  

OH dude! @KaiserDoom

2019-07-29 03:47:25 UTC  

Vampires are kinda a dime-a-dozen in Marvel tbh

2019-07-29 03:47:30 UTC  

do you watch deathbattle at all?

2019-07-29 03:47:47 UTC  

But yeah, the SJWs are Blade's uphill ice-skating motherfuckers.

2019-07-29 03:48:00 UTC  

Vampires in the middle-east are basically caused by being buried on unconsecrated ground or without proper burial rites. Also individuals with proper holy symbols and or salt can easily repel these things. Also middle-eastern vampires suck out your soul, not drink blood.

2019-07-29 03:48:19 UTC  

oof

2019-07-29 03:48:21 UTC  

metal

2019-07-29 03:48:21 UTC  

also I don't really watch death battle, seen it once. thats about it

2019-07-29 03:48:24 UTC  

So they're basically sissies.

2019-07-29 03:48:31 UTC  
2019-07-29 03:48:38 UTC  

Have him fight Ghouls tbh

2019-07-29 03:48:38 UTC  

Not really, they're just easily beaten by trivial means.

2019-07-29 03:48:44 UTC  

@KaiserDoom next episode is ghost rider vs Lobo

2019-07-29 03:48:50 UTC  

since Ghouls are originally Middle-Eastern

2019-07-29 03:48:51 UTC  

I saw the one death battle where it was Raven vs Twilight Sparkle. Talk about a mismatch.

2019-07-29 03:48:58 UTC  

Starscream?

2019-07-29 03:49:18 UTC  

European vampires also vary, but standardly normal vampires don't actually burn to death in sunlight. That's just a modern movie thing. You actually have to behead it and or burn the corpse and the heart
