Nice, they're following the book's ending with the ship stuck on the ice while chasing the monster. The Universal movie with the windmill always looked amazing, but I kind of always preferred the imagery from the book.

Looking forward to this. Given Del Toro’s imagination I want to see his idea of the creature. As with various adaptations of Dracula, a few Frankenstein films have gotten close to Shelley’s writing, Branagh’s mid-‘90s effort coming the closest. Hoping that this one will follow the original idea and have the titular character actually create his monster rather than simply assemble dead body parts. In the book the entire reason the creature is huge is Frankenstein’s inability to duplicate the finer workings of a normal size human.

Could be great

Its sad Del Toro fell in love with CGI. His practical effects and costumes were outstanding.

I could see a Babylon Bee AI spoof of the movie where it's a DNC branded ship and Fetterman is powerslamming Pelosi and rape-choking AOC while various they/thems wave torches at him and poke him with pride flags.

Frankenstein is such a great story. Was at a thing last month and an author was selling his original play called The People vs Frankenstein. Is meant to pick up after the original by Shelley. Haven't read it yet.

Sounds cool

Mel Brooks already did the definitive continuation of the Frankenstein story.

First under shirt groping while watching this movie in 6th grade.

The best version, by far. Done by the great Bobby D.

Pacino was so moved by the performance he had to side step away from his greatness.

The fuck is up with pachinos pidgin feet?

 

[NiteProwleR]

Haha, exactly. Seriously, though. I watched this in theaters and thought it was great and I wasn't even on the drugs.

It was decent. Definitely one of the adaptations that comes close to the novel. It came out in the midst of several good movies on successive weekends, including"Stargate", "Star Trek: Generations", etc

I kept waiting for Benicio Del Toro to appear. By the end of the trailer, I thought he was going to be Frankenstein. And then I re-read the thread title.
