Until today I've literally never heard anyone trash talk it at all, it's a modern classic

[@venjamin4907]

One of my favorite things about this is the fight between Mina and Dorian, because of one single effect. During the fight, they both get injured, and when they start healing, it's entirely different from one another - the painting dust crumbles, and the vein-y healing. It's honestly quite nice to see that attention to detail when they could have skimped out on it all and just had both their wounds closing up normally. Anyways: Like most in the comments, I really liked this movie.

[@MegaZeta]

Dorian Gray, I appreciate the creative use of him… but, while I realize the commercial reasons, I feel the source’s “Mina as coach experienced in managing ‘unusual’ types” is more interesting than just “Mina as vampire”.

It falls into the “so bad it’s good” category. I do not abhor the movie and found it very fun to watch. Would I say it deserved an Oscar? No, but most Oscar nominated movies are boring af anyway. If you asked how I could improve it, I would make the team Poe, Lovecraft and HG Wells.

Very true! There are some others they messed up on as well such as that the submarine can actually go in reverse. I often feel this movie gets a bad wrap. It does not follow the comics mostly because they are too dark for a pg-13 movie but is still a good adventure shoot em' up movie.

I will always defend _Dude, Where's My Car?_ as the funniest movie I never wanted to see. ...None of these are _good_ movies (with the possible exception, genuinely, of _Dude, Where's My Car?_ ), though. I recognize that, despite the fact that I didn't hate them.

[@Snipergoat1]

Really? I thought this interpretation completely missed the point of her. She was (in the book) the leader of this group of extraordinary gentlemen for her mind and leadership abilities, not some half assed superpowers. When questioned by Nemo as to why she, the only woman and the only one without an exceptional past (that they knew of), was in charge. She flatly told him that she was "accustomed to dealing with powerful men." She never reveled more than that and lead with her wits much like she did in Dracula. Of course these idiots not only fucked up her character, they fucked every single other one. None of them (in the movie) act at a like they should. It's like the idiots who made this movie skimmed through the source comic once and never even thought about the original characters at all. This film is shit and gets the disrespect it deserves.

@@Snipergoat1 no, I haven't read the source material, nor should I be required to. In fact, if I do read the source material, then what's the point of watching a movie that will have the exact same plot?

[@Snipergoat1]

@@pvshka This movie is not hated because of the plot. It is hated because it failed to deliver on the one thing it promised. To see what happens when you take these singular people and put them together with common cause. Instead they took these characters with over a century of background each and turned them into two dimensional Hollywood troupes. They could have just as easily made these characters act as they should have. How difficult would it have been to introduce Quartermain in an opium den, a wreck of a man and stoned out of his mind. He was so bad that Mina questioned recruiting him at all. How hard would it have been to not give them fucking superpowers? In other words, making a character behave consistently need not be a barrier to new people but failing that does fuck it up for people who know the material.

Tom Sawyer wasn't in the graphic novel this is based on - he was added to make the movie more accessibly to American audiences. For that matter, Mina didn't have vampire powers, Dorian Gray wasn't in the graphic novel and the plot is completely different. It was two warring crime syndicates, one led by Professor Moriarty and one by Fu Manchu. If they had just stuck to the original source material I think this would have been a hundred times better.

[@JakkFrost1]

6:53 "out of your league" doesn't always mean just hot. If it did, she definitely wouldn't be out of Sawyer's league. Case in point, her attractiveness was most certainly _not_ what Quatermain was referring to.
