I mean..my god.

I don't see your point. For a PG13 version, he's pretty great. "Perfect" may have been a bit overboard, but he's not bad by any means.

 

[CelticPredator]

Yes he was.

Every thing he said was horrible. With that goofy, fruffy accent he had on. Especially the scene where he awakens.

It's over acting at it's worst. Even Gerard Butler was a better Drac.

No, he wasn't. He was great.
It's not "overacting" necessarily, just more dramatic and..what's the word...quirky maybe?

He wasn't supposed to be as..relaxed, as realistic, as evil I guess as Gary Oldman's portrayal.

He wasn't anything. You're trying to prove that he wasn't ____. Which he was.

Everyone was in that movie, Except Alan Silvestri. Always on his A Game.

No, that is not what I'm trying to prove. He was a different version of the character, not as dark and "R" rated as Gary Oldman's. More quirky, dramatic, etc..

 

[CelticPredator]

I don't remember comparing them. I don't care. If the movie was PG G, or R, the acting is still awful. It's a character I can't take seriously as a threat.

 

[ExMem-LarjaThwei]

Just saying that every interpretation of Dracula doesn't have to be the same.

I haven't seen the movie in a long time, but I remember hating Kate Beckinsale's acting (as usual), not caring for Faramir or Jackman, and really enjoying Roxburgh.

Overall the movie was pretty bad, loved the score and designs though except that piece of ____ Frankenstien...

 

[KitFisto]

The Van Helsing Dracula was TERRIBLE.

My wife's a big Twilight fan, so sadly we own all the movies. To answer your question.

Spoiler

Renesmee's birth does happen in this one, and the final shot is Bella's rebirth. And make sure you watch about four minutes into the credits for another scene involving the Volturi.

Cool, thanks Sith

I've yet to see any of these movies or touch the books, and after hearing the author say that the publisher didn't except a draft of one of them because "It wasn't high school enough," I never will.

Imo, the Twilight movies seem to be bits and pieces of other vampire/werewolf stories with MUCH more dramatic lovey crap.

Haters gonna hate


Whats not to love....people need to embrace a little sparkle with their vampires!

 

[ExMem-LarjaThwei]

I love vampires and werewolves, it's somthing I've always loved..but Twilight is just...meh

My wife just became a twihard in the last year which of course means I've now seen all the movies. People (well guys for the most part) are way too hard on these films.

They're better made than the SW PT and look how many Lucas apologists hang out here. At least Twilight has believable chemistry between the characters that actually drive the story and the resolution to the "love triangle" is unexpectedly original to say the least.

They're sappy love stories for gals with a supernatural twist. That doesn't mean they "suck," they're just aimed at a different demographic. Of course some of the dialogue and deliveries are subpar but that's nothing new to us considering a lot of the films that are supported here.

But for some reason it sure is fun to hate on this series. Though I must admit that I heard a bit of the first book on tape and the writing is awful. Like a 14 year olds diary awful.

It's just the cool thing to hate on right now. I hear way more about Twilight from people who supposedly don't like it than I do from any Twitard out there.

It's just that the fourth movie and the third are so bad. Why would Jacob turn on his werewolf kind just to help some stupid girl. I mean damn dude you can get any girl you want

Obviously not.
