No, it's a prequal to Silence of the Lambs, Hannible is the sequal, but ya pretty good movie, I like where he makes you think he shot himself with the shotgun so he could go after the main guy without the cops on his ass.

Wasn't red dragon actually supposed to be the prequal to Silence of the Lambs? That's how they did it in the books at least.

ok guys.... red dragon came out almost 1 full year ago

in chronological order;
1- red dragon
2- silence of the lambs
3- hannibal

in order of bestness IMO;
1/2- silence/red dragon
3- hannibal


hannibal could have been better if they had reused jodie foster T_T, they are all just diff movies...

hannibal is more "gore" and less psychological stuff
silence of the lambs is more "psychological thinking" sorta stuff and less gore
and red dragon is like a mix of both :O

Red Dragon was actually a remake of the movie Manhunter, which was a prequel to Silence of the Lambs. They just wanted to redo it with Anthony Hopkins.

I saw Red Dragon at a prescreening and I remember thinking that it sucked balls. So I didn't bother with either of the other two movies because I didn't expect much.

Red Dragon was pretty good. It ended up being pretty darned similar to Silence of the Lambs, which isn't a totally bad thing. I'd say Silence was better because it was done first, but Red Dragon was pretty good, too.

But those who say Hannibal sucked are right on target. All gore, no substance at all. Blech.
I have returned.

Well for me:
1. Hanibal
2. Lambs
3 and last. Dragon
I didn't like Red Dragon, mostly because of the guy in he role or the Red Dragon character. I just couldn't get "in" the movie. The 2 other movie are pure art.

Both Red Dragon and Hannibal do not come close to comparing to Silence of The Lambs. Red Dragon was about as anti-climactic as movies come, not to mention how easy it was to predict what would happen in that movie.

dont insult the movie because after you saw it you realized that you should have guessed what would happen.

theres a recent thread about the best movie endings of all time. well id have to put silence of the lambs ending as THE WORST OF ALL TIME. i dont care if im spoiling it, its worth bitching about.

buffalo bill has night vision and a gun so he can shoot her if he wants. instead he allows her to walk around the room and follows closely behind her then does something stupid allowing her to turn around and shoot him. so so so so so so so fucking stupid. dont even bother giving the stupid defense of how he was infatuated with her because shes a woman because it doesnt fly. She wasnt big enough for him so he couldnt use her in any possible way. the ending just sucks.


edit: on second thought, its the 2nd worst ending of all time. First goes to vanilla sky, requiring an explanation for everything that went on during the movie. what a bunch of garbage.

Is it fun to assume things? Silence of The Lambs was both suspenseful and scary, two key elements that both Hannibal and Red Dragon were missing. Silence of The Lambs was the only one of the three that was even close to being comperable to the books. I hope you do not judge movies by their endings, most movie endings, especially American movies, are about as unrealistic as they come.
