Saw nothing when I did a search. Remake of the original. Benicio Del Toro, Anthony Hopkins, Emily Blunt and Hugo Weaving all star. Thoughts? Opinions? Here are a couple of pictures from the upcoming film...

QFT

Being a big fan of the original, I'm actually looking forward to this. The Wolf Man is long overdue for a remake after remakes of Dracula, Frankenstein, and The Mummy.

And a great cast too. I have high hopes for this one.

Got a release date for it now

its gone from November 6th to now February 12, 2010.

Clear evidence the film has problems. It's been delayed at the production stage once already.

The wolf effects apparently didn't get a good reaction, laughed at...

"We can't tell you exactly why Universal has made the shift. It could be due to the additional shooting that occurred earlier this year that reportedly involved FX artist Rick Baker. The radical release date bumps (original from April to November now next year) don't bode well buzz-wise. Here's hoping for the best!"

Rick Baker has come on board, bodes well for the film.

looks decent

must see..

Saw the trailer yesterday and it definitely looks interesting, I like Benicio Del Toro, great actor and Anthony Hopkins of course.

This movie actually looks like it could be really cool. That said, I have no idea if it'll actually be good, but the trailer got me interested at least.

Neat lookin' movie.

The classic was one of my favorites as a child. I want to watch it again before seeing this one.

New trailer

http://www.apple.com/trailers/universal/thewolfman/

Found out when he's in his Wolf Form Gene Simmons will be doing the voice.

That score for Dracula is fantastic, so I think the music from Danny Elfman would have been wonderful if it's along those lines, instead they go with Paul 'Underworld' Haslinger... nothing memorable at all from this composer.

You never know? It could be , well see. But if Elfman can do something beyond his standard fanfare , much less mimic Wojciech Kilar's beautiful score for 1992's Dracula , than hot damm! I'd like to hear that.

AICN Exclusive: WOLFMAN poster!!! It's very Film Noir...



Hey folks, Harry here with the debut of the killer film noir-esque 1 sheet of the WOLFMAN!!! Now earlier today the good folks at Cinematical were given the Emily Blunt poster - and now we have the coose-up Benicio as the WOLFMAN poster. If you read my interview with Joe Johnston - you'll see that part of what Joe was going for with this WOLFMAN is a film noir aspect. Now the film is of course color, but it does play with dark shadows and stark lighting in spots. So - what do you think of the two posters thus far? I think there're pretty great.

Danny Elfman is back

http://www.shocktillyoudrop.com/news/topnews.php?id=13742

I'm looking forward to this- either way. I hope Elfman does the score though. I'll prolly be seeing this in the theatres opening night.

Ah good to see Elfman back!!

Man, this film has gone through editing and composing hell, with a solid delay in there to boot. I really hope it turns out well, but these are not good omens.

Not to mention I almost lost all faith in Elfman after his god-awful Terminator: Salvation "score."

Not his best score no.

this movie looks great.am looking forward to it.However I wont get TOO excited about it after Sherlock Holmes did not live up to the greatness of its trailer.

A film of sometimes uncertain greatness that is nonetheless the most entertaining and effective Universal monster movie since Bride of Frankenstein.

a few more days until i see this

Lets hope it lives up to the greatness of the trailers.

I watched the trailer.
Looks awesome

Considering it's been pushed back several times, it's probably going to suck unwashed ass. Sad, really, as I like the monster, the setting and the actors.

i thought so too, so i hope i am wrong

i thought it was alright... the pacing seemed kinda off and it scared me though a couple scenes made me jump

I quite like it too.. maybe it was'nt the big blockbuster movie everyone was after but eh it was okay and it seems to have left it open for a sequel.

hmmmmm well kinda i guess i dont think the inspector guy has what it takes to go wolfman though... because he was bitten hed essentially be the next main character and im not sure that character can carry a movie.

i did like all of the characters in this film except for the girl although i didnt care for any of them. the only scene that really bugged me was the werewolf fight at the end

Over at Rotten Tomantoes it has a 30% rating but yet over at IMDB it has 7.7/10.

I looooooved this movie. Thought it was fantastic.
I'm a huge werewolf guy though.

What?...Like Teenwolf?

I'd freak out if I saw a bit hairy werewolf man at the cinema.

saw it las night. it was ok. the transformation scenes were cool.

I agree on that

hope Joe Johnston does a little better with Captain America.

Ehhhhh... This wasn't nearly as good as it could and SHOULD have been. It wasn't terrible but it was pretty boring in parts, and the ending was lame. I really thought this was going to be a majorly awesome blockbuster and the start of a new franchise, but now, there's no way that's gonna happen.

With Scorsese's "Shutter Island" opening this weekend and the awesome-looking remake of George Romero's "The Crazies" coming out next Friday, it looks like Zombies will beat Werewolves this go-around (Because, you know... "The Crazies" has people acting like zombies, and "Shutter Island" has Leonardo DiCaprio. Who just SEEMS like a zombie. :P )

No, Werewolf Vs Zombie, werewolf will almost always win, going by movie-feats.

Leonardo is one of the better actors in his age-range, son. Don't know what your beef is with him.

besides hannibal werewolf, there's a gollum cameo.. win-win!

I don't understand why people didn't like the ending. Werewolf vs. Werewolf = awesome in my book.

Well, if you REALLY want to get technical... Technically, the baddies in "The Crazies" aren't zombies - they're just infected humans. And going by movie-feats, humans pretty much always beat werewolves, soooooo...

See? "The Crazies" will beat "The Wolfman" at the box office! It's logic.

anthony hopkins makes any film at least one star better...

Watched the film. It was "meh". I give it a 5 out of 10. Probably better than anything else playing except Shutter Island. There were some good parts, but it seemed to lack, hugely, on developing the lore and the characters. Some of the lines were horrible: "It takes a monster to kill a monster." I literally faceplamed, it was so cheesy. There were probably 5 other lines, just like that. Oh, and when the werewolf jumped over the Scotland yard folks, Agent Smith said, "Dear God, help us all." I groaned and sighed and facepalmed through the back of my head. del Torro sucked horribly as the lead actor and almost ruined the film. However, that's more a problem with the director, imo. Surely the directly could have altered some of his retarded lines, just slightly, to NOT be so retarded. Surely he could have reshot a scene where del Torro does his line like an idiot from a very low-budget B film.

Hopkins was good, as well as Emily Blunt.

The film had several shots/scenes that were remarkably close to the original one "The Wolf Man. (1941)" it was nice and violent at some parts, as it should have been.



About Emily Blunt: She was very attractive in this film. She seemed delicate yet strong. Hard to describe, but her character was very well done. I thought her outfits, except for the gray one she wore in the last scene, were VERY nice. They were dark/gothic, yet elegant. Sounds gay, I know, but say what you want: what a woman wears can change how attractive or not she is. I liked the time setting for this film, as well. I think I'm falling in love with this era of humanity. I also like steam-punk. I may have to pen a script in this era.





Bonus: The douche sitting next to me jumped at every single cheesy scare moment. it actually got annoying, after a while. When the dog jumps out of the dark, he almost jumped straight up into a standing position: stupid douche a**hole...get a grip and stop being sucy a pansy idiot. /rant

I got my hands on a dodgy copy of this movie today, the picture quality sucks,but if I can bear that,I will watch it soon

just came from watching this finally..

i liked it, but not as much as i love the original..

That is one of the most worth facepalm e-mails I've seen in a while.

Sad part, she's probably too stupid to ever realize just how naive and stupid she is.

Movie was really crap. Cool gore. Just about worthless in every other aspect.

Damn it, I was hoping for a decent werewolf film after the shit Hollywood as dished out these last couple of years, Underworld and Twilight.

(unless of course I'm forgetting some good werewolf film?)

Ginger Snaps and Dog Soldiers.

I'm probably not going to see this.

Dog Soldiers, forgot about that one, was cheesy, but decent.

Will have to look into Ginger Snaps.

Soooo...I was right....again.

People really should listen to me more...They'd save themselves a fair bit of money.

Alright, what's your Scottish-sense telling you about the Clash of The Titans remake?

Just remember before going in it's an exploration of female puberty.

Hmm, is it anything like Teeth (2007)?

Kinda. Teeth focused pretty heavily on sex, while Ginger Snaps goes broader.

I saw this film opening day & thoroughly enjoyed it. I think it was well worth the three year wait, and I thought it was a great return to old gothic horror films. It was truly in the vein of the original, with a few changes here & there. Overall, I'm disappointed it didn't do better at the box office.

watched this for the first time last night with my mom
it was really good

It was okay, could've done better without that fight at the end

i thought it was okay, i just didnt like the whole "set the mansion aflame" thing, it was kinda predictable IMO

It was so alright I was okay with it.

The fight was incredibly cheesy though. It's like that was the last thing they did, and that was when the budget ran dry.

I brought this last week,Have not seen it yet though

Transformations were cool, everything else sucked. It was incredibly boring.

I think they should had not remade this movie.The classic one was really creepy and perfect!

I just saw this movie for the very first time.Loved it,it was awesome.Great special effects,great cinemotography,great performances.Was exciting from beginning to the very end,never a dull moment.Loved it!!!!! Best movie of the year IMO. I so much wish I could have seen this on the big screen.I really wanted to but it wasnt out in the theatres very long.
