Remake. It sucked. Bad.

 

[zeptron]

I've seen "Freddy vs. Jason" and have never seen any of the Friday the 13th or Nightmare on Elm Street films besides parts of the first film in both franchises.

Same here. Ditto on Alien vs Predator. I saw that and I've never watched the Alien and Predator movies.

I've also watched Bride Of Chucky before seeing the previous ones and Gremlins 2 before watching the first one.

EDIT: Just thought of some more.

I've seen Lethal Weapon 4 and not any of the other ones.

I've seen Casino Royale and any other Bond movie with Brosnan(Except for Tomorrow Never Dies) and not any of the ones with Connery and Moore.

 

[Secret_Riddle]

Terminator 2
Clerks 2
Goldeneye
Rush Hour 2..

what's with the attitude? it doesn't count since, although the novel Silence of the Lambs is a sequel to Red Dragon, the film Silence of the Lambs isn't considered a sequel to Manhunter.

 

[StrainedEyes]

What are you talking about? He said he saw Silence, which technically is a sequel to Manhunter, seeing as how Manhunter is Red Dragon, and Silence is a sequel to Red Dragon.

 

[StrainedEyes]

Wow, this post makes no sense at all...

Silence is a sequel to Red Dragon... Red Dragon was first put to film as Manhunter, then Silence came out... If you saw Silence and never saw Manhunter, then you saw the sequel before the original (Which is what this thread is about)

Just because it isn't Silence of the Lambs 2 doesn't mean it isn't a sequel.

And What does Hannibal Rising have to do with anything? A crappy prequel that came out years after Silence. Hannibal Rising is a sequel to Silence of the Lambs, even if the story takes place before.

 

[Spider-Vader]

Alien vs. Predator
Aliens
The Empire Strikes Back
Spider-Man 2
*******
Besides, AVP I think they're all better than the original.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Silence_of_the_Lambs_%28film%29#Manhunter_sequel_confusion

Three of the characters from this film (Hannibal Lecter, Jack Crawford, and Frederick Chilton) also appeared in an earlier film, Manhunter, though portrayed by different actors. Some[citation needed] argue that The Silence of the Lambs is a sequel to Manhunter, but the fact that Orion was willing to produce the film without the rights to the three characters that previously appeared in Manhunter suggests that it was never intended to be a cinematic follow up to Manhunter. In Ted Tally's second-draft script, he notes: "For legal reasons, the names of three of Tom Harris's characters have had to be changed. It is my hope, and certainly Tom's, that the original names can be restored in time for the making of this movie. For the purposes of this draft, however, Jack Crawford has become 'Ray Campbell,' Frederick Chilton has become 'Herbert Prentiss,' and Dr. Hannibal Lecter is called 'Dr. Gideon Quinn.'" Manhunter producer Dino De Laurentiis saw little future potential for the characters and allowed Orion to use the characters of Lecter, Crawford and Chilton for free. Further distancing The Silence of the Lambs from Manhunter is the fact that Frankie Faison and Dan Butler appear in both films, but as completely different characters. This matter was settled in 2002 when Manhunter was remade as Red Dragon, in which Hopkins, Faison and Heald reprised their roles from The Silence of the Lambs, establishing itself as the official prequel as it relates to the other two Hopkins films. It should also be noted that, in Manhunter, Lecter's last name is officially spelled "Lecktor", and no mention is ever made of cannibalism. He is stated to have killed young women, in effect condensing Lecter and another character mentioned in Red Dragon for time's sake. In addition, the events of Red Dragon are mentioned several times in the novel The Silence of the Lambs, but were all omitted in the screenplay.

That sucks number 4 (along with 3) are pretty much garbage compared to LW and LW2...

That doesn't mean anything. Even if the studio went ahead and changed character names, it still would have been based on Silence of the Lambs, which is a book sequel to Red Dragon which was first made as Manhunter. Same actors playing different roles and slight changes of character name spellings does not change the actual story.

Silence is a sequel to Manhunter because the books are sequels. The Hannibal trilogy which includes Manhunter or Red Dragon, Silence of the Lambs, and Hannibal.

Yes Red Dragon is the official Hopkin's trilogy, but Manhunter certainly has it's place in the Hannibal movie world.
