    Pun or not, thanks for the laugh!

    Wang is the new boobs. Everything has wang in it these days. We were watching A DIFFERENT MAN on Max last week, and all of a sudden the camera pulled back to include a lingering shot of Sebastian Stan's little Winter Soldier. At least the Nosferatu wang was a prosthetic.

    The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes.

    I greatly disliked this movie. 1 out of 5.

    The original series of movies I enjoyed enough but this prequel was disjointed, confusing, and made very little sense. No chemistry between anyone, no depth to the characters, and they seemingly crammed another movie into the last hour of this thing. If this would have ended at the end of act 2 I would have given this a 2.5 out of 5 and thought it was a decent stopping point.

    I was stunned how poorly this movie was put together.

    I hope not, lol. I read that there is already an extended cut available on-demand, and it was only 4 minutes longer. Probably more vampire penis!
    LOL!

    Thanks for the replies. It's not likely I will get to see this in the theater (Bummer) but will check this out once it's on something I already pay for.
    It'll probably hit Peacock by March. They already have a making-of doc on there.

    Not at all.

    With the 20 - 30 minute pre-movie trailers & commercials, I tend to start getting antsy around the 2 hour mark, or earlier if I’m bored with the movie.

    I actually never once thought about the time during Nosferatu.

    I saw it Christmas week, and I remember it as being closer to two and a half hours. Great-looking film, but I think I finally hit Dracula fatigue, or at least fatigue of the traditional Dracula retelling. I was bored a lot of the time, and while Skarsgard delivers a great, totally unrecognizable performance, the look of Count Orlock, which was kept top-secret, proved to be a huge letdown, and reminded me a lot of a major vampire character from early on in Mike Mignola's HELLBOY series. I was hoping for a more faithful update of the silent-film version. My filmmaking-school son loved it, but...I guess I've seen too much, am too jaded? Been there and done that. Everyone else seems to love it, though. I did think it was worth seeing for the performances. Willem Dafoe was great, as always.

    I thought it definitely lived up to the hype.

    The cinematography was incredible, probably the best looking movie I’ve seen in years.

    Well acted: I’ve never seen Lily Rose Depp in anything else, but thought she was very good as the vampire’s object of desire through the ages.

    Skarsgard was very good as the lead villain.

    Dafoe was borderline on over acting / hamming it up, but it worked for his crazy Van Helsing inspired character.

    The dialogue was almost Shakespearian, but once again, it fit the story.

    Gory enough to remind you that it is a horror movie, but never over the top.

    My only complaint was I found the ending to be a little anticlimactic.

    But, all in all, well worth the trip to the movie theater.

    Glad to hear that this ended up being good. I've been on the fence as to seeing it at the theater. Pretty much love all of Eggers movies so far but am not the biggest Nicholas Hoult fan. I'll catch it at some point I'm sure!
