A Downside
prevnextOnly bad news tonight was Mahershalla Ali as Blade. Not because I don't want him as Blade, but because he was Cottonmouth in Luke Cage. Idk how to feel about that. So much for "it's all connected"...

Disappointed
prevnextThe most disappointing thing in this slate is the fact that it just gave a middle finger to the Netflix properties by casting Mahershala Ali as Blade after he was Cottonmouth in Luke Cage. The Netflix shows aren’t even a part of the MCU and that makes me so sad.

Me: Oh fuck, that's awesome! But wait, he was already Cottonmouth in Season 1 of Luke Cage--

Hopeful
prevnextI know people are saying the Netflix shows don't count anymore because Luke Cage and the new Blade share an actor...but remember that Luke Cage and Captain America: Civil War share an actor too (Alfre Woodard)I doubt they will make the Netflix shows non-canon. pic.twitter.com/7mf5e6kYAL

Sure, Why Not?
prevnextSo, I guess then Blade is Cottonmouth's unseen twin brother? #LukeCage https://t.co/somJKlWxnL
