Fun Fact: Michael Jackson visited the set because he liked the Hannibal films. Michael was a horror movie fan. Which is why he had John Landis, the director of An American Werewolf in London, direct his Thriller video

[@robertpeacock894]

He didn’t go for the Ratner Diddy after party events?

[@basementdwellercosplay]

I saw an interview with John Landis and he said Micheal was still a kid and hardly knew horror films like Dracula or the Wolfman. Something about your fact didn't add up

[@willdiesel8431]

​@@basementdwellercosplayyou can be a fan of a genre without being a rabid fanatic of all things horror-related. Landis probably quizzed him on some really obscure references and when he didn't get the answers he saw as acceptable he deemed Michael as No True Scotsman.

[@baydiac]

​@@basementdwellercosplayIf you approach an average self-proclaimed horror movie fan and ask if they've seen Dracula or the Wolfman, the answer will be no. I'm not totally surprised by this. Those movies have a totally different vibe to An American Werewolf in London, and to put it bluntly are a little boring for someone Michael's age at the time.

[@ThePinkPanth3r]

​@@baydiacmy favorite Wolfman, Dracula and Frankenstein have Abbott and Costello in them.

[@Wolfbane382]

The fact that Will's shirt was soaked after meeting with Hannble for the first time after what happened; shows just how terrified Will was. But also how he managed to maintain control so Hannble wouldn't pick up on his fear.

[@pat2rome]

Very curious how you managed to misspell his name so badly when it was literally the title of the movie before this 😂

[@Wolfbane382]

Spelling has never been my strong point thanks to being dyslexic.

[@driafibromyalgiafighter9342]

He probably smelled his body odor and knew he was terrified....or just smelled his fear..ya know...the guy might be a lil psychic 😂😂😂😂

[@Tomboyy9818]

Hannibal**

[@stephengrigg5988]

And that was Ed Norton's doing. Brett Ratner wanted him to jump back and show visible fear to Hannibal, and Ed basically said that was a stupid thing his character wouldn't do, so they went with the sweat

[@markymark7247]

What makes Red Dragon different from Manhunter is that it focuses more on Dollarhyde than Graham and is closer to the book. Perhaps it's a better adaptation than movie.

[@lucashenderson2775]

So it's similar to The Shining where Kubrick made the better movie overall but it wasn't a good adaptation while the 90s miniseries was the better adaptation but not as good overall.

[@MikeMJPMUNCH]

Yeah it’s one of the few things this film did better I thought plus his relationship with Rita and I thought the final act was better.

[@CollieTheViking]

Dang James, did you time this Kill Count release perfectly with the P. Diddy raids just for the mention at 13:10? Incredible. and it confirms how much of a creep the director is.

[@multitudeofidols]

When he brought up his association with Diddy, I thought "That aged well."

[@TheSilentBattle]

Ratner ran with Russel Simmons who has his own charges against him, hence the Run Simmons cameo. We know the rumors about Michael and now the truth about Diddler. Bird who r*** together make dirty money together…

[@camthehorrorfan]

The fact that the director hung out with both Michael Jackson AND P. Diddy before they were all outed as creeps is both crazy and unsurprising to me

[@ihatethisuser1]

I was thinking the same thing! It's crazy to see how well connected they all are with each other, also disappointed to hear he pulled a woody Allen and ran to another country to avoid charges.

[@Nardril]

Rattner and his friends sure aged like milk. Oh boy

[@coolnerdlll6053]

I think this movie gets a lot of unnecessary hate because of the comparison to Manhunter. As its own thing, I think it's still a really well made and entertaining movie. And Ralph Fiennes is always awesome.

[@anthonylesley982]

[@Irgevwvrheioakwh]

Well it didn’t just take inspiration from the same book. They clearly remade many similar shots. Low effort

[@bradleybarnett1469]

​@Irgevwvrheioakwh what are you talking about? It adapted parts of the book the original movie didn't

[@DrThrustbone]

5:55 listened to “silence” on audiobook and in that Benjamin Raspail was a musician, dated Buffalo Bill, left Bill for a guy named Klaus, Bill kills Klaus and puts his head in a jar, and Hannibal kills Raspail and eats him. So this actually in line with the book lore.

[@DrThrustbone]

Also Raspail knew Bill had already killed a few homeless people and Klaus, and instead of going to the police he treated it like an inconvenience and even told Hannibal all this in therapy, which is why Lecter knew who Bill was when Clarice started questioning him.

[@Skygirl-rp4ob]

"Who?!? 😰" "Micheal Jackson, he's upstairs. 😒" I cannot get over this lmao 😭😭😭

[@claytonrios1]

I personally prefer Fiennes as the Tooth Fairy but maybe it's because he's the version of Francis Dolarhyde that I feel more sorry for as opposed to Tom Noonan who I'm more scared of.

[@damianoakes2592]

I agree with that, though I think Richard Armitage gave us the best of both on the TV show. All three are great though.

[@multitudeofidols]

I actually prefer Noonan. His Dolarhyde felt more human and vulnerable when around Reba and without the overt Great Red Dragon references, his monstrous side felt less theatrical and more grounded in someone desperate to feel power.

[@genghiscan2918]

Noonan was also excellent in his episode of the x files

[@stephengrigg5988]

The way he clutches Wills son in an attempt to protect him when will is insulting him is kinda heartbreaking

[@zer0_iz_d34d]

Ralph Fiennes was better as Dolarhyde and Anthony Hopkins was better as Hannibal but William Petersen was better as Will Graham

[@TheMess1998]

Scott Glenn refused to reprise his Silence of The Lambs role of FBI agent Jack Crawford in the subsequent movies because the research he conducted for the original film disturbed him so much. It still apparently causes him anxiety to this day.

[@Cat-uo4vw]

Red Dragon is like a true crime podcast, focusing on the grisliness and violence of the crimes and who the killer was and less on the actual victims affected by it. As evidenced by the crime scene photos we didn’t get many glimpses of in the first film and a focus on the abuse Dolarhyde went through under his Grandmother. Manhunter is more like the police procedurals of the time and focuses on how the crime affects the detectives and victims and generally more sympathetic to them than the killer. While they follow the same plot lines, it’s interesting to see how different they are despite that.

I believe the reason for Hannibal using a southern accent with Will to mock him is because Will came from a poor upbringing in Louisiana

I loved the way Hannibal works with certain people. Clarice had to give personal info and be controlled by Hannibal just for him to mess with and help her. Will completely ignores him and doesn’t bend because of their history together. Hannibal can’t toy with Will that makes the dynamic so interesting

My brain knows that Red Dragon isn't as good as the others, but I saw this movie BEFORE Silence of the Lambs, so it holds a special place. It was my introduction to Hannibal.

[@amandafrazier9724]

This one is several paces behind Silence for me; I LOATHE Hannibal( the movie, not the show). I thought the story was weak, but recasting Clarice was sacrilege -- particularly with Julianne Moore, who's...y'know, fine...but is absolutely no Jodie Foster.

[@myladynaynay]

Same. I knew OF "Silence of The Lambs", but didn't know anything about it nor had I seen it before. Wasn't until I saw my parents watching this movie one night and I decided to join them that I was introduced to Hannibal Lector :)

[@rfcfanj7911]

It better then Hannibal and Hannibal rising

[@jameslough6329]

Red Dragon is WAY better than both the 2001 Hannibal movie and Hannibal Rising. James just likes the Hannibal movie cause he's into super cheesy horror movies. If you are a fan of the serious styles of the prior films (and Red Dragon) then you'll most likely consider Hannibal to be awful.

Honestly after watching Red Dragon, Manhunter, and the NBC series I think the NBC series is my favorite version of Red Dragon and I think it's solely due to having the previous 2.5 seasons of history between all the characters involved. Not only that, but Mads Mikselsen as a much more subdued version of Hannibal, even when he's incarcerated which makes him so much more terrifying.

Getting your lips bitten off and then burned alive has to be one of the worst ways to go imo.

I think the best interpretation of hannibal lecter is by far the nbc one with hugh dancy and Mads mikkelsen. Not saying the classic hannibaly are bad, but the NBC series is so well casted and the performances are outstanding so if anyone gets the chance to see it ... do it ~ Palpatine/ Darth Sidious

“What about Frank Sobotka? I’m not seein him on fire here!” -That Security Guard, probably

[@BonnieFluff]

I'm not a big fan of Norton in general, he's good yes, but I just don't see what everyone else does. He's great in Fight Club but, well like James said, he's just Norton. Graham should be this hollow, haunted character. It's why Dancy and Petersen are so amazing at playing him. If you can't see them awkwardly stimming in the corner of a room they aren't Graham. I know in eight years time where Warner Brothers has fully bought out the rights to Dead Meat and production of the show gets outsourced to the entire population of a small city, the show-count will be amazing.

I love Red Dragon. It really feels like Silence of the Lambs and they pair so well together. As they were the 2 original novels I think they flow well, rather than Hannibal and Hannibal Rising which were cash grabs.

[@vincentvillegas8726]

“That’s enough to make this jealous dragon see red” 😂😂😂

[@Tomtainius]

18:12 Dead Meat literally hitting us with the RKO outta nowhere

[@deegreen2880]

Private parties with diddy?!?! Nah fam, I'm good

[@metalcorequeen]

Today is awesome. Got starbucks. A blunt. And another Kill Count in one of my fav horror series.

[@Lethalport1515]

I do love an unexpected Frank-N-Furter! Made me laugh out loud at 1am when it was dead quiet 😅

[@2128jrandall]

James with the Smoochy shout-out warms my soul 😂 I am a huge Death to Smoochy fan!

[@pajamapantsjack5874]

This movie is that top gear meme “Red dragon is great, but I *love* man hunter”

[@bmoresfinest1982]

As soon as i seen the stuff mentioned earlier about Ratner's allegations then mentioning him with Diddy im like "Ya.....that makes sense now" 🥴

[@moonwalker8391]

13:00 Michael Jackson? Michael FREAKING Jackson?! What?! XD

[@tiffa808]

Hey did I hear that what in Lil John's voice.

[@DanaStop]

I got a red dragon tattooed on my calf after I heard that we lost Adam Schlesinger, so I REALLY appreciated that Fountains of Wayne reference!!

[@jeddimighter]

I love the little Skits you do at the start they make me chuckle :) love the videos James

[@ianrhodes8871]

that P Diddy reference hit at a wild time lmao

[@SceneWins]

Genius add-on at the end. I think people will happily set aside the time to watch these movies to see your take. Love the channel, much love ❤

[@BrianDavis-kg2it]

Hmm that cameo with Brett Ratner and P Diddy is very interesting considering Ratner has all of those sexual harassment accusations and is now MIA and now P Diddy is being investigated by the FBI. Weird lol

[@BrianDavis-kg2it]

And he said something about a private party in that clip. Geeze

[@daboss7428]

7:53 “dogging his reservoir” literally just watched that movie yesterday lol

[@frogz8317]

Still think the Show is my favorite version of these books. The Casting for Will, Hannibal and Jack are 10/10 still crushed it got cancelled for “too high of production” so we never got their version of Silence of the Lambs we got all books beside that one which really sucks. So I usually watch the show then silence even if there are continuity errors.

Raspail was actually Buffalo Bill's partner (they met at a shop where he worked) and a flutist. Lecter really killed him due to his subpar playing abilities, but before that, he was his therapist. Raspail actually ended up having to go to therapy because he cheated on Buffalo Bill once with a sailor, and Bill lashed out on his lover, killing him - it was that sailor's head that was kept in the jar in the storage room. Raspail is how Lecter came to know about Buffalo Bill and met him.

[@roan9914]

in the silence movie I believe it is Raspail's head in the jar, in the book it was Raspail's lover Klaus who was Bill's first victim and whose head was in the jar

[@brettbarton1911]

Manhunter is one of the most visually stunning films ever. It is most definitely a overlooked masterpiece.

[@kazumajay]

Will Graham is based on a real psychologist named Bill Hagmire. He made Ted Bundy confess to all the murders he did, Thomas Harris tagged alongside Bill to interview Ted Bundy to write red dragon and silence of the lambs. Edward Norton's performance is close to the real Bill Hagmire; whom I idolise. Manhunter is a masterpiece in film making. But red dragon shouldn't be disregarded. Good work was put into the film.

[@RaiffWilliams]

Didn’t Bundy confess since he thought it would stay his execution?

[@kazumajay]

​@RaiffWilliams he did, to all the murders and where girls were buried. Bundy went a step too far by explaining to Bill on how he killed them. Which was Bill was found disgusted.

[@kazumajay]

​@RaiffWilliams he kept dragging it. He confessed because Bill Hagmire worked on him until the day of execution. He confessed he killed all those women. But he didn't reveal where he buried the bodies, he hid them from the families of the victims. Bill Hagmire convinced Bundy to fully confess. The rest is history. I highly recommend reading about this. It was really interesting psychologically.

[@kazumajay]

​@RaiffWilliams he did confess. But he didn't reveal where the bodies were hidden and buried. Bill Hagmire worked on him and made him fully confess.

[@TheKillerDoll]

I cant believe this is how I figured out that South Park parodied Red Dragon with the “do you see” scene
