Cameron H. 23786 Posted February 7, 2017 Cakebug, sorry I badmouthed your pick; especially since I've never even seen it.  I watched 8 minutes of it this morning. You may want to hold off on your apology. You might not be completely wrong  4 Share this post Link to post

taylor anne photo 11311 Posted February 7, 2017 As I was watching this it was driving me crazy where I recognized Max from. It didn't hit to me until almost the end that he was Mason Verger on Hannibal! With Eddie Izzard that makes two Hannibal people in this movie. I miss Hannibal... Holy shit I didn't even realize he was Mason Verger for those episodes! I only remembered the Michael Pitt version! Â I miss that show too... 4 Share this post Link to post
Cakebug Tranch 6873 Posted February 7, 2017 It's tempting for me to get defensive, but that's the reason I didn't pick a movie that I am fully emotionally invested in. Â So, no need for apologies: the movie was picked because it's trying to do something that's far beyond anyone's capabilities, and there are major flaws in it, absolutely. But the moments that work are worth the trouble with the rest of it. All I ask is that you watch with the openness of mind that accepts that there are weaknesses right alongside moments of brilliance. And no, it's not the Beatles - who could be! Â Try more than eight minutes, Cam. You haven't even got to Bono yet! Â With all that said, Â Â There's NO way it's as terrible as Tommy. Â 3 Share this post Link to post
tomspanks 9039 Posted February 7, 2017 Hannibal... Â Â They totally survived that fall, right? They ran off and got married and lived happily ever after, right? RIGHT? Â 2 Share this post Link to post
Cam Bert 8145 Posted February 7, 2017 Holy shit I didn't even realize he was Mason Verger for those episodes! I only remembered the Michael Pitt version! Â I miss that show too... No harm in that because we got to see Michael Pitt's face. It was all about his voice. Â I'm still sadly keeping hope alive that we'll get a movie eventually. 2 Share this post Link to post

But I remember them announcing that Michael was leaving and was being replaced by Joe and even with that I just remember Michael's face & voice the whole time. Â Guess it's time for a rewatch! 1 Share this post Link to post

Jack Frost 252 Posted February 7, 2017 This movie is full of little parts with people like Dr. Venture, The Lizard, Mr. Noodle, and that guy from the Matrix. Shame most of them get only a few lines. I'm a HUGE Bates Motel fan, but Hannibal started to feel like a chore after a while. I got most of the way through the first season. I love Mads Whatever [the guy who played Hannibal].
