***HANNIBAL RISING IN RUNNING***

It is up there in my 'top 5 worst films I've ever seen' list.

A disgrace of a film.

Complete waste of time.

does it really need an '' IN RUNNING '' thread ?

im worried for the titan

silence of the lambs awesome film

'Hannibal' was laughable rubbish

I expect this will be more on the level of the 2nd one

It is beyond woeful tobermory.

Even worse than that Red dragon bilge.

Silence of the Lambs was very good though

Better than 'very good' imo.

An outstanding fillum.

not that good

I think the problem was the author, Thomas Harris , had really run out of ideas after the 2nd book (Silence..) , but he was offered so much money he just couldn't resist, and so turned out any old nonsense which led to those 2 awful films.

Thinly veiled ''I **t my pants whilst watching it'' from Binosh there.

its understandable

like if friends got back together it would probably be embarrasing but for all that money it would be hard to say no to

Thinly Velied '' i have silence of the lambs posters on my wall '' post from Eboue there

:^0

;)

i think weve had our fun ;)

I'm going home now.

Goodnight all.

im leaving the betfair building in 20 mins if you want a lif ?

The film got slated - but the book was OK. As for the second Hannibal film - the book was really about how we all become corrupted by small steps/lapses until we're melting our granny into soap and eating our firstborn (with a hint of garlic). A bit like your first post on here - reply to a thread on what's your favourite vegetable and before you know it, you're sodomizing babycakes and/or fresh.

Also the second book( but strangely, not the film!) dealt with the political power of the American meat industry. Such as Acts of Congress to allow a certain amount of animal faeces into the meat - hey, the little brutes tend to relax their sphincters on being slaughtered. And where do you think swine flu came from?

Wasn't a smart career move by Gong Li though. But I expect she was well paid - so that's all right.

So, you do/don't agree?

Wake up! Or I'll get nasty.

:(

Surely I don't frighten you that much? I just want a discussion and then to suck your life-blood and eat your skin.

aaaaaaahhh :(

Almost enough - but not quite...

The director of the Hannibal film decided that Thomas Harris's ending was too unrealistic (Lecter's long-term sedation of Starling leading her to fall in love with him).

He consequently altered the closing reel to portray Lecter chopping his own hand off (rather than Starling's) to avoid capture. This was even more unrealistic in my view; Harris's creation was the ultimate sociopath.

I think I detected 2 serial killers on here. I wasn't one of them.

It was the username that gave me away wasn't it? :(

You wouldn't kill a fly.

The original Manhunter movie was by far the best of the lot.

That's true actually. I don't.

no he would bodil

likes to make his mark! prefers killing humans

wouldnt*

I thought Manhunter was reasonably good, too, Dan. Brian Cox played a menacing Lecter.

Silence of the Lambs better in my book, though.

I know the 2. One has never posted after I thanked him for reminding me (I remembered the other). Which has been sort of a giveaway.

Cox was good. The Welsh alcoholic was slightly more sinister.

Mind you, I could probably frighten you as much, if i put my mind to it. Fortunately my mind is mostly destroyed.

I met a murderer once; he was also a transvestite. That was mildly unsettling.

Small man, but very handy with a knife apparently.

There is such a thin line between almost all of us becoming murderers. We should sincerely hope not to meet that line.

Ah, very true Bodil. But who can help gazing wistfully across it occasionally, eh?

Yes.

thetitan must have fallen asleep? ;)

Leaving the hall light on presumably.

silence of the lambs ---superb
hanibal ---good/v.good
red dragon---hmm ok
got hanibal rising but not watched it yet.

Feed me!
