HAHAHAHAH!

That was way too funny. But from your subject line, I did expect sparkly werewolves. ;)

(I would have thrown up after that.)

Yeah, I realized that I should have put "Twilight: New Moon" into the title, but I can't edit the title for some reason. Could a mod do that if someone has a couple seconds?

I wonder if this woman has been in movie denial for so long that her entire dvd collection consists of direct to video Disney films and Twilight.

Well, to be fair, the reason for releasing a wolfman remake probably does have something to do with the popularity of Twilight.

That said, this is like claiming the Bible ripped of The Matrix: Revolutions

Not sure. It's possible. I think Universal has been planning to remake most of it's classic monster films (Frankenstein, Creature from the Black Lagoon, Phantom of the Opera, etc) for some time now. Wolfman may have been filmed first BECAUSE of the whole Twilight thing, but who knows. Could just be a coincidence considering that one or two werewolf movies are made and released in theaters practically every year.

It might be, but it's more fun to just mock her as a dumb twilight fan, isn't it? I say it is.

The best accusation I ever saw was a group who were against Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers. They honestly believed it was named as such to make money off of 9/11.

luckly/unluckly breathing doesn't require you constant attention, while you have a measure of control, it automatic occurs, this is why you can't hold your breath till you die.

what is really sad, if you could convince those people of some protest like "holding your breath for another Twilight novel" we coulld make the world such a better place.

Always a pleasure to be of service. *bow*

A quote I actually overheard was "Great movie, I should read the novels to see if they put some more details in after the shooting of the movies was finished."

Sometimes I think it should be 'better lever than Nate'!

Actually, The Wolfman was announced and began work in 2006. The first Twilight movie, began script work in 2007 and didn't even begin filiming until spring of 08'. So technically the remake of Wolfman, did come before Twilight. Its just a coincidence that there is a vampire/werewolf craze right now..

This is almost as funny as that one person yelling at people to live Britney alone.
Sometimes I don't think humanity is worth saving.

On topic the remake was okay not probably as good as its black and white counterpart but good on its on merits.

This is either farce or a seriously disturbed individual.

I won't watch either one of these crap-fests, because they're both rip-offs of The Shaggy Dog with Tim Allen.

My bet is either angry middle schooler or angry high school freshman/sophomore. It would fit right into the demographic for Twilight, and would hit on the general pop-culture knowledge base of that age group.

Wolfman finishes second... That's what they get for so poorly ripping off Twilight.

http://www.latinoreview.com/news/ta...iversal-your-wolfman-ripped-off-twilight-9247

A Friend linked me this. I can't explain the level of fail in the letter, but I can sum it up that the writer says that Wolfman "offends all Twilight fans", and further goes on to indicate that "everyone knows Stephenie Meyercreated werewolves" and that Universal should be ashamed for making it "look like some deformed mutation of a rabid dog".

Lon Chaney Jr unavailable for comment. (This was a comment left by a reader, but it was my first thought as well).

Seriously though that was funny but after reading it again I'm guessing that was written by a little kid. Kind of dick to slam a child like that.

heh. I am not surprise by this. I mean there was a group who wanted to CHANGE the name of "Two Towers" from LoTR cause it represents 9/11

Honestly, this was the point where making fun of people who like Twilight stopped being fun. All the sport is gone from it.

It's like hunting deer who have no legs at this point.

Of course ever since WB did that remake The Adventures of Robin Hood back in 1938... the originality of Hollywood has been out the window.
