Is this the movie that started it all?

Definitely. Before Blade, Marvel had effectively tried to make it in the big screen, but they had no success whatsoever, neither critically nor commercially. Blade was the movie that paved the way for future Marvel films.
It's good to bring this up, because after all the success Marvel movies are having these days, most people are not aware that they should thank Blade for it. -

I'd give that to the X-Men.
Blade was made in 98, and despite Tomb of Dracula, The Nightstalkers, and a short lived solo series, he wasn't exactly hugely popular.
At the most we were expecting a sequel, not much more. The X-Men was when the franchises really started.
