The Hannibal Lecter Saga... and YES, I spelled his damn last name right!

[thebuckrogers22]

nbc is making a hannibal tv series based off red dragon

[NeverAloneForever]

The book Hannibal was the problem.

[RAARfietsman]

what the hell does everyone have against Hannibal?! It was my favorit with red dragon

[twistedzombie5]

thanks for the review i didnt see very many hannibal movies besides silence of the lambs but thats for the review to hold us over always great ones

[peacocksandwhich]

If buffalo bill didn't die at the end of silence of the lambs it would be cool if he got his own movie spin offs.

[MrAdzerman]

You didn't review Red Dragon

[FilmMasterAdam]

@MrAdzerman

Yes I did, watch it again!

[MrAdzerman]

@FilmMasterAdam Well :) what i meant to say was not in too much depth, but now i see that it was too similar to manhunter, my bad :)

[QueEEnfAN1]

Man Brian Cox better than Anthony Hopkins my ass, Hopkins IS Lecter, no one can do it like him, Cox doesn't even look like Hannibal, you look at him and is like "mmm, no, you're not him, let's get another actor" and is not stupid that Lecter remembered the names of the people who ate his sister in Hannibal Rising, let's remember Hannibal is a really inteligent man, (specially Hopkins' Lecter)

[kerinapetshop]

@AADT226 I agree.



[JadaBlaze02]

@AADT226 Hannibal Rising was shit

[thelupoistheman1]

I honestly think Anthony Hopkins is the much better Lecter, but Cox was still very very good as Lecktor.

[thelupoistheman1]

Here is my updated rank of the Hannibal Lecter films:

1. Silence of the Lambs (Perfection.)

2. Manhunter (Great film)

3. Red Dragon (Over the top, but entertaining)

4. Hannibal (Really, Ridley Scott?)

5. Hannibal Rising (Pathetic)

[JokerFan1138]

manhunter: honestly, i really didn't like it. 5.5/10

the silence of the lambs: probobly the best movie ever made. 10/10

hannibal: over the top at some scenes, but i can still take it. 7.5/10

red dragon: loved it. 10/10

hannibal rising: BUUUUUUUUUULSHIT!!!! 0/10

[thelupoistheman1]

My rank of the Hannibal Lecter series:

1. Silence of the Lambs

2. Red Dragon

3. Manhunter

4. Hannibal

5. Hannibal Rising

[madlikeblogger]

What's the song called when Adam talks about Hannibal Rising?

[marveldc456]

you should the scream trilogy. well i guess its not a trilogy anymore because scream 4 comes out in april

[LyleVSXyle]

haha i saw clerks 2 last night and now i get why jay flashed like that. That part actually made me gag!

[AllJoinSomething]

if they will make a remake of "It"? omg....the effects will be amazing but i will predict that the plot will be sort of....shall i say...nonsense?

[westshiro]

this has probably been asked alot of times but whats the name of the song he opens with.

[RedGroundBlackSnake]

This is no surprise to me. Film and Game creators, they have an inaccuracy fetish, don't they? They have this big, fat hard-on for insulting of novels, comics, and even key parts of reality. Of course, they also have a big, fat hard-on for money, but that's all anyone else sees in them.

It is quite disturbing, all of these "source material anarchists". That's all they are, source material anarchists.

And yet people use the Escapism Band-aid in attempt to defend the adaptation. Sad, really.....

[Kniletiah]

@RedGroundBlackSnake Not always. Look at Watchmen! But The Dark Knight was inaccurate yet good. Maybe I can reboot this film series when I become a director, and add it and alter things that it will be enough to make it unpredictable, all the while staying to the genius that it once was...

[dre2you]

Lol, Stewie and Lecter are both rocking the same slickback hair-do.

[dre2you]

This is how I'd rank them, personally...

Red Dragon

Silence of the Lambs

Manhunter

Hannibal

Hannibal Rising



Tom Noonan better than Ralph Fiennes!? Are you kidding me? Ralph Fiennes' career speaks for itself, amazing actor. The only thing Noonan did better was looking creepy, which is not that hard if you're Tom Noonan.

[AmyLeeSArmy]

Thank you so much!!!! I totally agree XD I watched the first 10 mins of Hannibal Rising and I got so bored that I turned it off..failure! Great review!!

[ZigZagRunner]

i remember michael mann for heat didn't you like that movie. i gotta say i kind of agree with what oliver stone said about jews controlling the media im not a neo nazi or anything but think about it. have you heard of any movies about Chinese massacres or African ethnic cleansing and im sure there would be an indian one in there somewhere but schindlers list gets one. its a little hard to watch as well ending pays off though

[NeverAloneForever]

@ZigZagRunner Hotel Rwanda. King Leopold's Ghost. etc.

[GeoWing2]

Lector is from Lithuania. Not Germany. His family are aristocrats, that's the reason why he lived in a castle. His family is killed by Nazi deserters. None the less Hannibal Rising did, indeed, suck. I don't mind Hannibal...Its not the best movie but I can still watch it.

[FilmMasterAdam]

@GeoWing2

Lithuania, Germany, its all the same shit to me lmfao XD

[starkiller20293]

@FilmMasterAdam Buffalo Bill along with Leatherface and Norman Bates were all inspired by real life killer Ed Gein who cut off womens parts and made masks/suits out of them he like Bates was obsessed with being a woman. That's why Bill was like that, he wanted to be a woman like Gein.

[thelupoistheman1]

@FilmMasterAdam,

You gotta admit Adam. The brain scene in hannibal was pretty cool. Bad movie, but great sequence.

[NeverAloneForever]

@FilmMasterAdam And his mother is Italian.

[NeverAloneForever]

@GeoWing2 That film was horrifying in a pathetic way.

[GeoWing2]

@NeverAloneForever

wasn't talking about the movie, which yes sucked. I was talking about the books. but same thing.

[NeverAloneForever]

@GeoWing2 I heard the last two books sucked, especially Rising. The movie made me feel sick. Like Alex getting brainwashed by Ludovico sick. I just needed air. At the end of the movie I gasped "the horror, the horror". Then again I uttered that phrase throughout the picture. I also cried like Harvey Keitel from BL or RD but I don't have to get into that.

[GeoWing2]

@NeverAloneForever

I'm sorry to hear that. I have never seen a movie that has made me cry.

[NeverAloneForever]

@GeoWing2 I didn't really shed tears. I meant to say I moped . . . from the misery.

[tenaciousfilm]

hannibal was terrible....... silence of the lambs, manhunter, and red dragon are great

[SnakeyZedd]

I loved these series

[marveldc456]

awesome reviews keep up the amazing work
