New Blade Movie! Without Even A Sniff Of Wesley Snipes!
Batman, Superman and James Bond all proved that everybody loves reboots - so the chaps at New Line have come up with a sterling idea. New Line is apparently gearing up to make a Blade reboot, even though Blade is barely a decade old as it is. What sort of reboot is Blade going to have? Nobody knows, except for the fact that Wesley Snipes will be nowhere to be seen in it. According to reports, Wesley Snipes won't be appearing in the new Blade movie, even for a second. Which, ironically, is still 10 seconds longer that he appeared in Blade Trinity for.

Wesley Snipes Can’t Jump. This New Fine, at Least.
Looks like Wesley Snipes is going to have to revert to some of the crafty money-making techniques of Sidney Deane to get himself out of this pickle. The star of the Blade trilogy, as well as Money Train - we're not forgetting that one, Wesley - has had some... 'troubles', should we say, over the last couple of years. Troubles involving taxes. And how he didn't bother to pay them between 1999 and 2001, apparently. Maybe he assumed his valuable contribution to movies was payment enough? Regardless, the vampire-hunting, trash-talking basketballer who likes trains with money on them has been ordered by a federal judge to pay back $217,000 to the government, to cover the legal costs incurred in prosecuting him earlier this year. Hopefully Wes can pull something like The Marksman 2: The Marksman in Space out of the bag to cover those bills. And use the tagline 'Wesley. Snipes'. If it hasn't already been done. And if it hasn't, hecklerspray gets the copyright on that badboy.

Wesley Snipes Not Going To Jail Just Yet, Or Ever
Everyone's known that Wesley Snipes is a bad man ever since he was convicted for, um, you know, something about taxes and money and whatever. And because of this, Wesley Snipes was supposed to hand himself over to federal officials next month so he could start his three-year jail sentence for whatever that thing was about taxes that he apparently did. But not so fast - Wesley Snipes isn't going down without a fight! He's been granted bail pending an appeal of his conviction. This could mean that Wesley Snipes might avoid jail completely, although this really is his last pitch for freedom so he needs to give the appeal his absolute all. And you know what that means, Wesley? No more getting rambling boneheaded character witness statements from Woody Harrelson? OK, Wesley? Not even one. Promise us, it's important.

Wesley Snipes Gets Those Three Years In Jail After All
Well thanks a lot Woody Harrelson - Wesley Snipes asks you to do one bloody thing to keep him out of jail and you balls it all up. No really, thanks. All Wesley Snipes wanted to you to do was write a heartfelt character reference to stop a judge from sending him to jail for three years on a tax evasion charge, and you ended up jabbering on about how close together your birthdays are. You really are a great big dipshit. In fact, it's probably all your fault that Wesley Snipes was sentenced to three years in jail yesterday. But you've only hurt yourself, you know - now that Wesley Snipes is in jail, you can kiss goodbye to any notion you had about making Money Train 2: Money Train In Space before 2011.

Wesley Snipes’ Chums Try To Keep Him Out Of Jail
There's a good chance that Wesley Snipes will be sent to jail for three years today - but not if the bald bloke from Cheers has any say-so. In a final desperate bid to wriggle out of a jail sentence after being found guilty of tax fraud, Wesley Snipes has enlisted the help of two of his most famous friends - Denzel Washington and Woody Harrleson - to write character witness statements pleading with the judge to let Snipes keep his freedom. It might just work - the naturally-authoritative Washington appeals to the judge's sense of leniency by referring to Snipes in his letter as 'a mighty oak'. Harrelson, meanwhile, has just drawn a big picture of a happy cat in wax crayon on his, and then written 'I like kitons' underneath it. Might help.

Wesley Snipes Staring At Three Years In Jail
Now's the time to start hoarding your special edition Passenger 57 DVDs, because you might not see Wesley Snipes again until 2011. Now that he's officially a convicted tax-dodger, Wesley Snipes is waiting to be told his fate, and prosecutors are urging the judge to hit him with the maximum three-year jail sentence, with a $5 million fine thrown in on top. It sounds particularly harsh, but prosecutors want Wesley Snipes to serve the maximum punishment so it will deter any Wesley Snipes fans who think that not filing your tax returns is cool. Although we're sure none of them think that - if Wesley Snipes has any fans at all, we're not even sure they'd be able to spell their own names, let alone file any tax returns.
