Summary of movies past & future …
July 26th, 2003 | This movie turned out to be a bit of a disappointment. The story was better, the characters were more interesting but, unfortunately, the pacing wasn’t as good and the movie really dragged in places. Also, in order to catch the audience up on what is happening, they literally have several characters explain the entire thing to you about 1/3rd in. Like we haven’t actually been watching. … sigh … After all the hype, I was let down. In a side note, they did fix Laura’s “uni-boob” problem from the first movie; I guess that’s something. |
| Remember my review of this movie? Well, in an obvious bid to make more money from the same cash cow, they are now re-releasing the movie with an added alternate ending. This time, after the official ending and end credits, they will show a “what if” ending that is much less “happy ending” and much more in line with the dark nature of the film. Normally, I would bristle at a tactic this obvious, but I happen to like the movie so … I’ll go see it again! |  |
 | If you haven’t seen the previews for this yet, I suggest going to the website and checking them out. It looks really good! The basic premise is an ongoing war between clans of Vampires and tribes of Werewolves … all in a modern urban city. This would, truly, be the underground war. The stroy reminds me a lot of the RPG Vampire: The Masquarade. I wonder if that was the source material. |
| This is another great movie Lisa & I are waiting to see. It is a dark, mystical conspirecy set in Rome herself. Are there dark factions within the Vatican, using ancient magicks to plot an overthrow of the Holy Church? Sounds interesting, doesn’t it? |  |
