Re: Film Buffs
Can't see why he was put out, the franchise died a death. Not a fan of all these remakes and rehash movies myself

Me neither really, but still get suckered into going along to see them.nikkiboy wrote: Not a fan of all these remakes and rehash movies myself
Did think the 'Texas chainsaw massacre' remakes were top notch though. 'Texas chainsaw massacre, The Beginning' was every bit as good as the original chainsaw IMO.

Am I one of the rare film buffs who actually thinks that 'Hannibal' was better than 'Silence...'.???Gringo wrote:Saving Private Ryan
The Counterfeiters
Silence Of The Lambs

Great series of 'Lecter' films though, which I would put in this order :-
Hannibal
Silence of the lambs
Manhunter
Red Dragon
Hannibal rising

Manhunter is very underrated imo (not on your list).

Definately think that William Peterson is a better Will Graham than Edward Norton, but Hopkins definately improved the Lecter character.
