ColonelKillaBee Posted May 4, 2023 Share Posted May 4, 2023 Ok after the second watch I do agree with @BigBossBalrog. He just looks like Nosferatu with wings, which I actually do like. Ngl I am wondering about the doctor xD Did they have black doctors then lol even in england. Someone more knowledgeable will have to tell me lol. edit: Quick google search says yes, they actually did. What do you know, I guess we did alright in Europe compared to with whitey in the states lmao in the 1800s.

For once; apparently The dude is a medical graduate from Cambride and there's a couple of recorded ones, so it's plausible. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_people_in_Cambridge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColonelKillaBee Posted May 4, 2023 Share Posted May 4, 2023 Oh and spoiler alert for anyone who isnt aware of how the movie (should) end. Everyone fucking dies lmao including the dog. Dracula impersonates a black dog to escape the ship when discovered and is probably gonna be the "plot twist" at the end/cliff hanger.

It was just some devil and niggas just started disappearing left and right until there was barely anyone left and he just came out like whatuppppp. That sounds really cool. I think it would be sick if nobody in the movie never even said the word "vampire" and them it’s just a demon that they have no understanding of. 1 * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBossBalrog Posted May 4, 2023 Share Posted May 4, 2023 If I remember; the section in Dracula that told the story was 99 percent logs that detailed the events of the ship; and it was one of, if not the first, examples of the "There is something here, and it's killed us, this is my final note AGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" 1 minute ago, ColonelKillaBee said: Oh and spoiler alert for anyone who isnt aware of how the movie (should) end.

The people who first read Dracula are lucky as fuck lol but yes I agree. They could have marketed it in a way where we know what it is without actually having it said. No "Dracula!" no vampire, just a thing. I know there's an example somewhere of this but I'm having trouble remembering. The way I'd have done it, there'd have been sightings of it, and you only know for sure ah this is dracula at the end when he comes in wings stretched out and mouth all bloody etc. But not the characters in the movie. 1 "Even the hardest dick must go flaccid." -Colonelkillabee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I roasted him originally as well until I saw the movie. He fits very well, better than the original movie Paul Atreides Imo. That he seems more fitting to Czar now imo is simply that he's in the part of the story where he's that nigga and knows he's that nigga. First movie he was still figuring that out... but had glimpses of it. Especially near the end. It's natural progression. I'm very excited to see part two. He looks way more like book Paul than the 80s version, but in my opinion the older one had better acting chops. I’ll have to wait and see. Paul for me was definitely not my favorite part of the last one, and not just because it took place before he goes full Fremen war chief badass. One thing I liked in the book is that after the time skip, he is noted as having grown up quite a lot. Gurney barely recognizes him. He’s gotten stronger and more authoritative. A man, not a boy, whose skin has gotten rough and dark, eyes have fully blued, etc. as he has gone almost full native. I’m just not sure about this guy’s ability to pull off that version of Paul. I’m willing to give him a chance, but I think he should’ve at least spent some time outside and gotten a good tan. 1 * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the title gives it a way; and I think it's a pretty cool ass title, so I think it's worth the trade off But then again, part of what Alien so memorable was you only got a good look at the Xenomorph almost an hour into the film Cool ass poster too 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the title is fine, I’m more speaking of the trailer itself where you hear Dracula that name is too iconic for a horror, imo. Too much imagery behind it. 1 "Even the hardest dick must go flaccid." -Colonelkillabee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColonelKillaBee Posted May 4, 2023 Share Posted May 4, 2023 Imo original dune Paul Atreides looks way more dweeb than new Paul. Looks basic white boy. New ones got more confidence.

But I’d definitely like to see it. Spending two years leading a Fremen raiding party in the high desert should change a man pretty significantly. But even if the actor himself doesn’t bulk or toughen up (hard to tell from the trailer), I hope he can at least pull off the strength and charisma of Paul from the later part of the book. The time for mopey angst is behind him! I wanna see Muad'Dib! 1 * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New Paul is definitely better in some ways, but this isn’t one I’d give him. If anything, the creators went out of their way to make him much more reluctant and full of self-doubt. He even has a scene or two where he talks about it with Leto. Plus he mumbles a lot and could use a sandwich. I liked him well enough for what he was, and suspect this change was intentionally made so that his development feels more prominent, but he hasn’t yet sold me on his ability to pull that part off yet. Not saying he can’t; but it just hasn’t yet been proven. * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love this and wish it’s how they’d done it. But I’m sure they felt like they had to do it this way just because including "vampire" and "Dracula" in the marketing will surely help it sell more tickets. Though even if they miss some opportunities, I still think it’s just a really cool premise at face value. Hope they do it well. 1 * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are joking about that; but apparently there making a cinematic universe out of the recent success, the "Pope's exorcist", with the pope being the "big good" Maybe they would do some "greater evil" shit, and it'd be Typhoon from Greek Mythology.

All joking aside, I’m not really into exorcism/demon movies, but the new one you’re referencing is based off of a real priest and there is some really cool history to the guy. He actually seems to have been a bit of a church rockstar back in his day. I don’t care to see the movie, but I would recommend looking the guy up just for the cool read. * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
