In the opinion of original Blade star Stephen Dorff, despite the odd exception, modern comic book movies are not just uninteresting, but they are outright “garbage”.

Dorff, who many may remember for his role as the villainous Deacon Frost in the original cinematic adaptation of Marvel’s Blade, offered his criticism of the modern Hollywood cape machine during a recent interview with The Daily Beast centered around his upcoming sci-fi horror film Divinity.

…Later speaking to this same sentiment, following an inquiry by Schager as to what, if any, “other genres, besides comedy, that you’d like to try, or revisit?”, Dorff declared that he would give comic book movies another shot if not for the fact that their quality had spiked, regardless of production studio, in recent years.

“My life is pretty weird, but look, I love all kinds of movies,” said the actor. “If comic-book movies were more like when I started when we made Blade, or the few that have been decent over the years, like when Nolan did The Dark Knight and reinvented Batman from Tim Burton, who’s obviously a genius…when they were interesting.
