Blade: Trinity

Continuity mistake: In the interrogation room scene where Hannibal King rescues Blade, when Blade kicks Triple H through the wall, Blade says " Go " to Hannibal he grabs his gun, if you slow it down, the bag with the syringes has gone in one shot and reappeared on the table in another. (00:35:25)

Suggested correction: According to this site's rules, if you have to use slow motion to see something, it's not a valid mistake.

Other mistake: In the opening fight, right before the title card, Blade fights five vampires. He kicks one, who falls onto the ground and starts to crawl away. He then kills the other four vampires with his weapon (sort-of a blade that's on a line he can whip around). After those four vampires "dust," you see the fifth vampire (the one Blade had kicked earlier) on the ground... and he spontaneously "dusts" for no reason whatsoever. Blade did nothing to him... he just dies for no reason.

Suggested correction: He gets hit by the silver knife on a string (whatever it is called) like the others in 1 swing (there are 5 in total BTW). A small touch seems to be enough to dust them.

You are correct there are five (typo), but the last vampire does not get hit by the knife in any way that I can see. Watch this clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7LkxaihdyRE Blade swings the knife-line above his head (you can see the line in the entire shot), and there's never any point that I can identify where it hits the vampire on the ground. Blade swings it in an upward motion, and you can see the line goes slack after it hits the last vampire on the left side of screen, implying that it stopped and fell to the ground in that direction.

TedStixon

The blade goes around his head at least twice before it hits the last 2 vampires. I admit that it's unlikely but you can't really see where the blade goes unless you go into slowmotion (if that even shows anything as it's all CGI). It could have hit him at any point.

lionhead

It does go around his head twice and is quite fast, but it is definitely visible throughout the shot (slow mo is not required), and at no point does it go low enough to hit the vampire on the ground. It would need to completely defy all laws of physics to do that.

Factual error: When Blade notices the piece of Dracula's armour in the Nightstalkers' headquarters he's shown an image of what the full armour looks like. It'd be impossible to extrapolate a full suit of armour from such a small piece.

More quotes from Blade: Trinity

Trivia: Wesley Snipes was reportedly unhappy with the script, and caused difficulty on set. He allegedly often refused to leave his trailer, mistreated the cast and crew and became violent at least once. He also refused to film many scenes, forcing director David Goyer to use creative means to add Snipes into them. (Eg. Goyer used body-doubles, CGI and stock footage to add Snipes in several scenes.) Other actors were given much of Snipes' dialogue because he refused to film so many sequences.

Question: How did Drake discover the Nightstalkers hidden base?

Answer: It's possible that he followed one of them back to the base. This is feasible since they wouldn't be able to tell that he was following them because of his shape-shifting abilities.
