Castlevania Is As Dead As Dracula

Cmon folks, It was based on a videogame..it was cursed from the out set!

i wouldnt be surprised if uwe boll picked up this projected and completely mrdered it like every other good video game movie he makes

Jonathan Frakes...Really...DarkAVengers, he was #1 commander Ryker on Star Trek Next Generation..Unless it is a different Frakes.. This would be a cool movie if done right but then again they haven't done a decent video game movie yet.

Yeah, but Van Helsing sucked ass! If you want to make a horror movie then make a horror movie, not a lively "romp" with cartoons instead of some of the most famous movie monsters in history. It was like watching Scooby [frick]in Doo.

Im just amazed that Hollywood is still trying to make these movies, there has never been a good one, There has never even been a half decent one..well, Silent Hill had its moments, and Mortal Kombat was fun..when i was 12.

HEY NOW IT WAS ENTERTAINING,EVEN THOUGH I HATED THE WAY THEY DID FRANKENSTIEN...IT STILL MADE HELLA MOOLAH..SO EVEN THOUGHT MOST PEOPLE WILL SAY SOMETHING, THE NUMBERS SPEAK FOR IT

Gunsmith the Jonas Brothers make millions, are they a good band?..well they must be! The numbers speak for them!

Roar- In my book it's already begun to suck since Bylenthal is the main role!!! And if you loved Van Helsing's "concept" (the only good thing about the film aside from Beckinsale's tight pants) then you'd love Castlevania. Paul Anderson would have nailed it too. Now it's up for grabs and Uwe Boll is always fishing... Anybody knows a good hitman???

Another disappointing bulletin! F*@K!!!

At least someday, someone will come along and make CASTLEVANIA the way it was ment to be portrayed!

I WANNA SEE A METROID OR A MEGA-MAN MOVIE!!! woot woot!

Jayne Wisener for SAMUS ARAN! No Clue for MEGA-MAN!

@SpiderMan209 hells ya those are the two i would love to see the most too, after watching Iron Man i have wanted to see a Metriod movie even more then before, and if they did Mega Man something like Casshern then it would work nicely.

Both Mega Man and Metriod have excellent storylines and a lot of material to pull from with the right writer and director these two could not go wrong.

Oh and no castlevania = a sad Osiris, I've been waiting fro this for awhile now i love the games i got a NDS just to play the handheld games

Man!!! I've been a fan of Castlevania for some time, and this just really bites the big one. Oh well... granted video games adapted to movies typically suck, it still would have been nice to have seen it.

Man, [frick] the haters, Frakes would have pwnt.

NEVER HEARD OF IT???

But i feel for ya @ SHAMAN @ Hey like ya new AVATAR!!! Tities! ; D

Shaman- You can check out the complete story and so on online, but ill give a very brief summery-

Bioshock is about a man whose plane crashes somewhere in the ocean (atlantic I think) who stumbles upon the entrance to a secret society that was built underwater known as Rapture. The people of Rapture were sick of the medding of goverments and religions in the progress of mankind and technology so they decided to seperate themselves from the rest of society.

Here, man is unbound by any moral law and science is developed unfettered, particularly genetics. Through genetic engineering, the scientists found you can give someone abilities, such as telekinesis and pyrokineses (abilities you acquire alongside your typical arsenal of guns and bigger guns). Yet, something is amiss, and when the protagonist arrives, he finds that everyone is insane, including Raptures megolomaniacal leader Andrew Ryan.

I wont go any further cause the story is filled with amazing plot twists that I dont want to ruin. The game is amazing, with the best level design ive seen... well ever. Your basically in a city underwater built upon early twentieth century technology (complete with the garish neon signs, architecture, creepy jazz music and tommy gun like weapons of the time). The fighting is intense (especially with the very scary big-daddys) and there is a lot of horror injected in the story. Its common to come upon rooms covered in blood and bodies, half-dismembered corpses in medical rooms and decrepit scenery). And to make matters worse, everyone there is completely nuts, with all the enemies gibbering nonsensical lines while randomly choosing to attack you or just walking by. It really gives you a sense of paranoia.

Trust me man, this is videogaming at its finest. I dont care what Roger Ebert says, the plot and twists of this 'game' will rival any classic movie you've ever seen!

Bioshock is an FPS with magic, there are some puzzles.

if you want it to be anything like RE you will be disappointed Shaman, I didn't really care for playing Bioshock i think it was the story it was dull to me but i liked the characters and how crazy they are, the magic was fun to mess with but the game was your basic FPS

van helsing was the worst piece of shit ever to leave an @$$hole. It was so bad...

Brett Ratner makes fun of it with his friends.

@Osiris---Rock on, Osiris! They need to make these movies, already!

AH! CHRIS PINE FOR MEGA-MAN! :)

John Malkovich for Dr. Wily! lol jk

A METROID MOVIE WOULD KICK @$$!

But keep Samus Aran on a solo mission! Don't send her with a team, or it'll just be another ALIENS rip-off! :P

And give Samus Aran GREEN HAIR like the first game did! :)

Osiris is right Bioshock is a first-person shooter where you switch between guns and your 'magic' like skills, so you can't have an aversion to that kinda genre to enjoy it (though there is a lot more attention paid to detail and level design than your average corridor shooter game). I'm surprised you didnt like the story, O? I guess it was kinda slow moving at first, but thats what most mystery stories do to build up suspense, ya know? Thats cool though, everybody has their own tastes in storytelling and games. To each their own. I wont berate you like a lot of people do on this sight ;)

Honestly, I'd suggest renting the game first since each person has their own opinion on good games its hard to judge what a person would like. I did, and got about halfway through the game, then took it back and bought it right there. Or you might just take it back. With games costing 60 bucks these days I wouldn't suggest buying it unless you know you're gonna like it, know what I mean? ;)

I still remember the phrase from Castlevania II: Simon's Quest when nightfal came..."What a terrible night to have a curse." That game was fun. Too bad for the film, probably would have sucked anyway.
