bram stokers dracula

thoughts on this anyone? it's been a long time since i saw this movie and i ended up getting it for my bro for christmas and we just watched it tonight. i gotta say, whew! that movie was waaay out there! after all the soft core porn, toward about the last half hour i started to get into it but i have to say that it was one of those movies that was overly hyped IMO. some good acting on the part of anthony hopkins (what's new?) but keanu....ugh! i felt like anyone could've played his role. to me, no matter what he does he'll always be ted "theodore" logan. he just can't seem to get the surfer dude out of his voice. imo it was okay but for me it won't be one to own.

The first time I saw it I hated it. Then I read the book, watched the film again, and had a greater understanding of it. Sure Coppola changed a few things, but it is the most faithful adaptation. I now love the movie....especially the cast. Hopkins, Elwes, Campbell (Bill not Bruce), Grant, and Gary Fucking Oldman more than make up for Keanu.:)

i wasnt impressed by the movie before or after reading the book, i mean it wasnt bad but it wasnt good either.
about keanu though he has 3 expressions: 1 he looks a little confused...2 he looks confused and in the thrid expression he looks realy confused... witch is why the matrix was perfect for him.

Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust, Near Dark, The Lost Boys, Bram Stoker's Dracula, and From Dusk Till Dawn are my favorite vampire flicks. Anne Rice's vampires are too...what's the word...homosexual for me. I want my vampires to kick some ass.

Are you kidding me Moon? At one point Louie and Armand almost make out!!! And if Armand isn't the gayest name I've ever heard, I don't know what is. They're just too damn effeminate for my liking. And they're whiny.

p.s. I actually like the actors in the movie.:) Huge Slater fan here.
