Trivia
According to Patton Oswalt, the production was so troubled due to studio interference and that Wesley Snipes appeared to have had some sort of mental breakdown. He refused to speak to David S. Goyer and often would not come out of his trailer, he would only respond to the name 'Blade', and if he communicated with anyone, it would be via post-it notes. 'Ryan Reynolds' corroborated this while promoting the film. Saying that Snipes would ignore the entire cast but once acknowledged Reynolds by saying "Keep your mouth shut. You'll live longer."

Goofs
At the beginning of the movie we see Blade being filmed while he shoots the ersatz vampire. Just before Blade runs away from the "murder scene" we see the photographer put the camera down and start laughing. But, when we see the film on the computer screen, we see Blade running away.

When Hannibal and Abigail come to Blade's rescue at the station, one of the guards uses his club on Blade, who bends it like rubber.

When Blade jumps out of the window after collecting his sword from the police station a large amount of glass hits the floor where he lands. When we cut back to Blade kneeling where he landed, the smashed glass has disappeared.

Q
How could Abigail be Whistler's Daughter, didn't he say his entire family was killed by a vampire drifter?
A
As Abigail stated in the movie, she was born after the death of Whistler's whole family, she was raised in an orphanage and tracked Whistler down when she got a little older and became a vampire hunter.
Q
Why does the footage in the flashback look familiar?
A
The footage is from the first film, Blade (1998), in which Whistler is telling his life story to Dr. Jenson.
Q
How many versions of "Blade: Trinity" are there?
A
The third installment of the Blade-series was rated R by the MPAA for its theatrical release. Later, there was also an unrated extended version available on DVD and Blu-ray. This extended cut runs more than 9 minutes longer and adds more story and slightly more action to the theatrical cut. A detailed comparison between both versions can be found here.
