Is Hollywood getting desperate or what!




May 15, 2003 (United Press International via COMTEX) -- PRODUCER WANTS ANOTHER HANNIBAL PREQUEL

The producer of the popular Hannibal Lecter movies says he would like to make a film about the serial killer as a young man.

Played by Oscar-winning actor Anthony Hopkins, the brilliant cannibal Lecter was middle-aged in the 1991 film "Silence of the Lambs," its 2001 sequel "Hannibal" and 2002 prequel "Red Dragon."

Legendary producer Dino de Laurentiis said at the Cannes Film Festival Thomas Harris, the author of the three Hannibal books, currently is working on a new prequel titled "The Lecter Variation: The Story of Young Hannibal Lecter."
No excuses!

    Silence of the Lambs was an outstanding book and I think a very good movie. It was a crime/suspense movie. The others are/were nothing but slasher flicks going for the shock and gore factors. Too bad really.. for the series of flicks as well as Anthony Hopkins. Even if done 'properly', however, I don't think any subsequent films could have matched Silence.. the books were too similar.

    Hannibal? I agree, skip it. Silence? If you've not seen it, I highly recommend it.

    Why bother..Red Dragon was a huge letdown compared to Manhunter...........Red Dragon had it's possibilitys but seemed to cut itself short every scene from just being over the edge .....Really I had hoped that's what they were going to when they made Red was go a little more into Hannibal this time...but not to be....Just a very weak remake with a very whimpy Ed Norton.
