    I like Red Dragon a lot too, underrated vs. the other two.... the dude in Hannibal is pretty crazy too... basically makes Lecter look like the lovable guy in the movie.

    Silence of the Lambs is a great movie. I loved it....except that it ruined the song "American Girl' for me. Now every time I hear that song I think of that creepy guy that was making a body suit out of human skin.

    Not a bad movie. Still think the previous movies were better. My personal opinion.

    What did you think of Hannibal Rising?

    Red Dragon was solid. I will never understand how Bret Ratner did a better job with that screen play than Michael Mann did.

    I was not a fan of Hannibal.

    Hannibal and Hannibal Rising sucked. Such a shame because the books were amazing.

    Silence of the Lambs defined many things in the movie world. The whole premise is intriguing.

    Anthony Hopkins did such a great job as Hannibal Lector it is hard to believe that he was not the first to play that character.

    I haven't seen Hannibal Rising... I don't think Hannibal sucked though... nothing great, but didn't think it sucked compared to what else is out there.

    Definitely the weakest of the HL movies (not counting Hannibal Rising)

    Just think of her driving around on a summer day... having a great time....

    The weird Nine Inch Nails type song that is playing in Buffalo Bill's dungeon as he is trying on his garments is pretty freaky.... who does that song?

  • If I remember correctly Hannibal sucked so badly because no actress wanted to portray Clarice Starling like she was in the book. In the book she ate human brain while under the influence of powerful drugs administered by Hannibal but in the end she became his companion. This would have made a much better ending in the movie imo.

    He is the only thing I can think of when when I think of Hannibal. Perfect rep for that spot.

    Well, in the movie, a little kid ends up eating the brain.... a little kid who happens to be seated next to Lecter on a flight out of dodge.

    Clarice was pretty weak in Hannibal... she should have eaten that brain

    I like that ending better. I can't even remember the ending to Hannibal. I watched it when it first came out but haven't seen it since.

    I have mixed emotions about that movie. I think they did an OK job, but not great.

    You know it has been quite some time since i have seen that movie shrug. The only song that stuck was American Girl.

    That's a little different. Need to read the book.

    If you have never seen Silence of the Lambs you need to do so ASAP.

    It's all good SC. If nothing else, watch all of the Hannibal movies.

    I'm ashamed to say that I haven't. I'll borrow it from my grandparents or parents sometime though.

    I am 28. Kids think anything that came out before 2005 is ancient.

    I always liked older movies when I was a kid.
