Great scenes. The other 2 movies are OK but tbh, I wouldn't even watch them now if I were you. They pale in comparison.

Oh yeah...this was funny...

Shawshank by far for me. Longer timeline. Multiple chapters with their own beginnings and ends.

Not remakes but it's a trilogy based on the books.

They're not bad by any means. But not as good as SOTL. There was an older movie called, "Manhunter", which was based on Red Dragon and I thought was better than the later movie called Red Dragon.

All three are pretty good; products of their times. TV series has amazing visuals.

Great movie. Shawshank is too but also so fucking overrated. I guess people love having their hands held through every emotion or change in the story by Freeman's commentary

They were going to do a TV series about Clarice some time ago. Not sure what happened to it.

Mr. Robot looks good from the commercials on USA.

my favorite from that series has always been Manhunter (where my nig DD at) followed by Hannibal. Hannibal is really underrated imo

Michael Mann's Manhunter definitely has that 80's Miami Vice feel but yeah I liked it better than the remake.

Just a classic film...so many good scenes/quotes.

"It puts the lotion on the skin or else it gets the hose again"
"Would you fuck me? I'd fuck me."
Multiple Miggs telling Clarice that he can smell her c#nt.
Multiple Miggs slinging jizz on her as she walks by :lol

One of the best ever IMO..

Manhunter is almost a perfect movie to me. Noonan was legitimately scary as tooth fairy, Cox was a funny Lecter, Farina was a bad-ass Jack Crawford, the soundtrack was catchy as fuck, and the ending scene with "In a gadda da vida" makes my dick hard.

Hannibal was exactly what it was supposed to be, imo--a fun movie. It was never meant to be taken as this great film like SOTL...just delivered on the morbidly funny Lecterisms we all hoped it would.

But, like "Lamb" "Shank" is also extremely pompous. He gets there and the convicts are hard & convicty. Well, until Robbins is accepted into their circle and then they're just a great bunch of fellows. It's on AMC chronically and I'm there every fuckin' time twixt the commercials.

And I know it's a movie but a sewer line doesn't magically change to a storm drain.

I don't know. Since we moved, we haven't even hooked up the DVD player. Mostly because we mounted the TV over the mantle and our cords don't reach. But we have carried on like we don't have a care in the world. We moved almost a year ago and yet we gave our child a Guardians of the Galaxy DVD for Christmas. In retrospect, it seems cruel. But she will grow up knowing what it means to have and yet to want more at the same time. Water water everywhere and not a drop to drink.
