Blade Vs Underworld?

So... Hollywood is apparently debating a crossover between Wesley Snipes Blade and Selene's Underworld. It got briefly dismissed when the MCU wanted to pic up Mahershala Ali as blade, but when that got memory-holed, the pitch got made again, and hasn't yet been shot down.

But that's left me questioning... could the series even exist in the same universe?

Underworld vampires don't respond to silver, don't turn to dust when they die, and have a much lower reaction to sunlight (though it's still deadly to them), can have kids and can get old.
Blade vampires literally burn when touched by silver, flash fry in the light, are immortal and can't breed, Blade himself aside.

That being said, both of them have a difference between turned vamps and born vamps (even if in Blade its only him).
I also don't think there's any contradictions between Blades Werewolves and Underworlds. I know they come up in the comics, but i haven't read that one.

Can anyone tell me more contradictions? Parallels? Ways to handwave them?

My current thoughts are that there are a bunch of levels of vamps and aside from Dracula, Blade's only come up against the lowest levels of them, the turned and the Reavers.
Living Vamps (blade)
Born Vamps (Selene)
Turned vamps (same in both series)
Bestial Vamps (Blade 2's reavers)

Dracula and Michael (these two are all over the place freaks and wouldn't fit anyway)
 
I don't see why it couldn't work, Blade goes in to a vampires den, gets his ass kicked and barely escapes, he- and Wesley- mostly the latter- researches what went wrong, they find out different vampires and contact someone in the know to figure out how to kill them right, round two he wins, and he keeps winning until the elders or half werewolves or whoever the final boss is show up leading to the climax, practically writes itself.
As for different power levels if Blade's too weak have him get injected with werewolf blood, get some power armor or some such, if he's too strong have there be more elders or other strong ones around, easy.

Ah yes. The idiotic vampires who never realized they can make bank by making a blood bank to conquer the other vampire clans/tribes/whatever they are called.

Remember that Morbius becoming a vampire thing through that plant? What if their ancestors unknowingly did that procedure to become a Morbius Vamp in their primitive tech, and their weaknesses lessened in each generation?

We all know what kind of freak he is. He is the guy who owes Moon Knight money. That is most freaky in terms of lore due to Taskmaster wanting nothing to do with Moon Knight. The same Taskmaster who can fight Captain America to a standstill.
