Red Dragon is a f***ing disgrace. It's nowhere near as good as Manhunter, and it has a few variations in the story line.

What are you talking about? Variations in story line? You are acting like red dragon was a remake of manhunter there. Its not. Anyways Red Dragon still follows the book a lot closer than manhunter does. I thought red dragon was great, much better than hannibal (don't blame ridley, it was the book, it was no good to start with!). It was a lot more like silence. It reminded me of kiss the girls too. Brett ratner did a great job considering thats his first serious movie with those calibur of actors (his next movie is superman btw). THe acting was great, I especially liked ralph fiennes. The movie kind of made you feel sorry for him, like all good movies of that genre do or should. It was not a disgrace.
I saw the ring yesterday. I liked it. I didn't really like it cause of the story, but more because of the...um...cinematography i guess you would call it. The camera angles and the colors were beautiful.
Btw, the ring is about this vhs tape that if ppl watch its rumored that they die in 7 days so this girl tries to find out if its true. Its based on a japanese movie that came out in 98 that was based on a book series....
Um...ridley scott has got a movie coming up with russell crowe about tripoli. look forward to that. tom hanks is doing a movie with the coens soon, that will be sweet. and of course look for spielbergs catch me if you can with tom hanks this dec....
