Ridley Scott made it look and feel amazing at times but the book was way freakier and would've been a kickass movie if done the right way.<BR/><BR/> Thanks for the book recommendation,David-yeah,the brain buffet is the best part:)<BR/><BR/> No,Jake,I didn't forget you! They should write a song called"Cannibal Christmas",it would go great with"Grandma got run over by a reindeer"!lady thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16287907577241697874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13994370.post-1158713317747783522006-09-19T20:48:00.000-04:002006-09-19T20:48:00.000-04:00Nothing says Christmas like cannibalism ...Nothing says Christmas like cannibalism ...Jake McCaffertyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11514826360061633139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13994370.post-1158700351433804312006-09-19T17:12:00.000-04:002006-09-19T17:12:00.000-04:00I'm with pjs.Hannibal was a disappointment to me, ...I'm with pjs.<BR/><BR/>Hannibal was a disappointment to me, the only part I liked was the brains buffet actually. If memory serves, (Ray Liotta's) character, (this was the book, only saw part of movie), had me in stitches, when he kept remarking stuff like "Hmm! That smells good!". <BR/>hehe, and they were chowing down on him, actually.<BR/><BR/>I'm not sure why this was was such a downer, since I loved the first two. I think it has to do with the fact that Hannibal taking centre stage didn't do it for me, took away some of that creepy weirdness he had going for him.<BR/><BR/>I'd recommend getting hold of Robert Ressler's biography, he was the agent who pioneered profiling and Thomas Harris modeled Edward Norton's charcter on, for Red Dragon.<BR/>Very interesting book. Ressler says he doesn't much remember Harris, he was this quiet guy who tagged along and never said muchDavid de Beerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03191810429175260146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13994370.post-1158690415154188962006-09-19T14:26:00.000-04:002006-09-19T14:26:00.000-04:00Hmm.

Think I'll sit this one out.<BR/><BR/>I've ALMOST forgiven Julianne Moore for "Hannibal", but my grievances were script/plot-related, not due to any supposed misogynistic slant.<BR/><BR/>I still can't look Ray Liotta in the eye.PJShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00139693870184658700noreply@blogger.com
