Another Vampire Movie Picked Up, But This One's a Comic Book!

Oopps lol, TOILET!!! ; D

Necro @ Would luv to see NECROSCOPE adapted buddy, i used to read a lot of Malibu comics, damn, they just disappeared!

MS @ If only, i loved that image comic book!! Kudos!

hey! I like vampires!

i think il be a vamp to nite lol

@Lee...it really was a nice read.

Leee777: I'll be checking out Nightfall when or if it hits the movie market. I for one love Vampire movies like Blade,Underworld,Queen of the Damned,some old Dracula flicks and there's a few more. I think I enjoy the Vampires that are able to blend into society you the hybrids. Twilight had some of that in it but maybe a bit too much and it didnt quite work.
I will be checking out NEW MOON, because I didnt really think Twilight was a total flop maybe because I never read any of the books. Alot of people loved the Watchmen I thought it was O.K. again I guess it's because I'd never heard of the Watchmen before the movie came out.

Kristen Stewart always has that "i need to crap" look on her face.

But Interview with the Vampire was an excellent movie, & the link with Queen of the Damned wasnt' so bad either with Lestat!

@lee, you are right..anything can happen. Lets not forget Lost Boys. lol. anyways, Stargate the movie is on.

She certainly does, MsKyle ;)

Oh and I would like to see a The Vampire Lestat movie that follows the Book or even a graphic novel version. I love the part in the book when Lestat is still human and has to fight off a pack of wolves.

check out randomguy's twilight parody, now theres sumthin to laugh about :)

damn right mskyle!

its just like anything else. there are awesome vampire movies/stories and there are bad ones. you can't say all vampire movies are terrible now because you don't like twilight. give me a break. i think twilight sucks too, but i'll be damned if thats gonna stop me from seeing a GOOD vampire movie.

i guarantee people complaining about this movie being made (mostly fotc) has NO IDEA whatsoever what this is comic is like or about.

Dmon @ "TRUE BLOOD" is [frick]ing awesome, anyone not seen that is missing out, its a amazing show!

lmao @ romey

Blade@ I like the concept everyone knows about the Vampires in True Blood becuase its an idea I have never seen before. But I do agree Sokie could be hotter. And Sokie's brother is awesome he always has the potential to be a total bad a$$ but then bumbles it in some funny way. I would like the actor that plays her brother be in a comic book movie but I dont know which one.

@ LEEE

bless you m'man. most people just talk noise about trueblood and have never even seen the damn show! it is definately one of the best shows on tv!

Yeah, True Blood is a great show..Im not up to date on season 2 yet though.

I think this concept sounds..kinda shit! I mean, obviously I don't know much about it, but judging from what I do know...He's a prisoner..In a prison..run by Vampires...Wouldn't they just, like, eat him?

No way, I love vamp movies..done well. 30 Days Of Night was great I thought, Let The Right One In was brilliant.

I see New Moon is getting rave reviews!..oh wait, its not...

"The characters in this movie should be arrested for loitering with intent to moan. Never have teenagers been in greater need of a jump-start. Granted some of them are more than 100 years old, but still: their charisma is by Madame Tussaud.

"The Twilight Saga: New Moon" takes the tepid achievement of "Twilight" (200, guts it, and leaves it for undead. You know you're in trouble with a sequel when the word of mouth advises you to see the first movie twice instead. Obviously the characters all have. Long opening stretches of this film make utterly no sense unless you walk in knowing the first film, and hopefully both Stephanie Meyer novels, by heart. Edward and Bella spend murky moments glowering at each other and thinking, So, here we are again.

Bella (Kristen Stewart) is still living at home with her divorced dad (Billy Burke), a cop whose disciplinary policy involves declaring her grounded for the rest of her life and then disappearing so she can jump from cliffs, haunt menacing forests, and fly to Italy so the movie can evoke the sad final death scene from--why, hold on, it's Romeo and Juliet! The very play Edward was reciting narcissistically and contemptuously in an opening scene.

Yes, Edward (Robert Pattinson) is back in school, repeating the 12th grade for the 84th time. Bella sees him in the school parking lot, walking toward her in slow-motion, wearing one of those Edwardian Beatles jackets with a velvet collar, pregnant with his beauty. How white his skin, how red his lips. The decay of middle age may transform him into the Joker.

Edward and the other members of the Cullen vampire clan stand around a lot with glowering skulks. Long pauses interrupt longer ones. Listen up, lads! You may be immortal, but we've got a train to catch.

Edward leaves, because Bella was not meant to be with him. Although he's a vegetarian vampire, when she gets a paper cut at her birthday party one of his pals leaps on her like a shark on a tuna fish.

In his absence she's befriended by Jake (Taylor Lautner), that nice American Indian boy. "You've gotten all buff!" she tells him. Yeah, real buff, and soon he's never wearing a shirt and standing outside in the winter rain as if he were--why, nothing more than a wild animal. They don't need coats like ours, remember, because God gave them theirs.

Those not among that five percent of the movie's target audience that doesn't already know this will (spoiler) be surprised that Jake is a werewolf.

Bella: So…you're a werewolf?
Jake: Last time I checked.
Bella: "Can't you find a way to...just stop?
Jake (patiently): "It's not a lifestyle choice, Bella."

Jake is influenced, or controlled, or something, by Sam, another member of the tribe. He's like the alpha wolf. Sam and his three friends are mostly seen in long shot, shirtless in the rain, hanging around the edges of the clearing as if hoping to dash in and pick off some fresh meat.

Bella writes long letters to her absent vampire friend Alice (Ashley Greene), in which she does nothing to explain why she is helplessly attracted to these sinister, humorless and vain men. It can't be the sex. As I've already explained in my review of the first film, The Twilight Saga is an extended metaphor for teen chastity, in which the punishment for being deflowered I will leave to your imagination.

The movie includes beauteous fields filled with potted flowers apparently buried hours before by the grounds crew, and nobody not clued in on the plot. Since they know it all and we know all, sitting through this experience is like driving a pickup in low gear though a sullen sea of Brylcreem."

haha. Im not a huge fan of Ebert, but damn, that gave me a giggle.
