It takes a lot of balls to file amended tax returns claiming huge refunds on the basis that income taxes are unconstitutional along with the fact that you are owed reparations for slavery.

Nice knock-off of my gimmick. JCVD's movie career has been better. Bloodsport alone trumps all of Wesley Snipes's movies combined. The Blade series was not that good.

It seemed like everybody was doing it. Made this thread as a joke on that, really

Are you out of your mind?

This statement is wrong on every level

This is a much more reasonable comparison than Van Damme vs Stallone. Both guys peaked early in their careers and just haven't done much of consequence since. But I have to go with Van Damme here.

Bloodsport, Kickboxer and Double Impact alone win it for him. I like Snipes, but the closest he's come to making a classic is the first Blade. That's the only movie of his, except for maybe Demolition Man which isn't really HIS movie, that I feel motivated to revisit.

JCVD beats Snipes every day of the week.

His stuff was not my cup of tea. I definitely prefer JCVD's body of work.

Wesley Snipes, anyone who says otherwise better sit their five dolla ass down.

I think JCVD got to do more scenes with nude female co-stars, so he clearly wins.

Probably my favorite Snipes movie outside of Blade. The one and only time he got to team up with someone as awesome as Sean Connery.

Hell yeah dude. Rising Sun was great. By far Snipe's best movie next to Blade. It's got some scenes that haven't aged well and seem a little corny now, but most of it still holds up. It got me to buy the Michael Crichton book and the movie is pretty much identical to the book. Except that in the book Wesley Snipe's character is white and doesn't tae kwon do kick people, lol.

You're kidding, right?

I never did read the book, and it's been years since I saw the movie, but I remember the movie being good and definitely one of Wesley's best. For me, it's pretty much Blade and Rising Sun . . . then everyone else that is of variable quality.
