Hannibal

I recently watched Red Dragon and loved it, anyways I was skimming through wikipedia and found this

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hannibal_(TV_series)

It's a prequel, set before Red Dragon and after Hannibal rising (it's rising right?), anyways I for one am looking forward to seeing this. I loved Ed Norton and Sir Anthony Hopkins in their respective roles as Will Graham and Hannibal Lector, so seeing how Hugh Dancy as Will Graham and Mads Mikkelsen as Hannibal Lector should be interesting and I hope they can do a good job of it.

Mads Mikkelsen is one of the most ignored great actors of the present day.

He was amazing in A Royal Affair.

He's awesome in everything he's in but the Hollywood films he gets roles in seem to leave him unrecognized to the masses.

I have high hopes for this series. Few actors get my attention and Mads is my freakin hero these days.

I just realised somehow last night this thread managed to double itself 😬

Anyways yeah I can't wait till April to see the first episode, it'll be interesting to see what happened in the lives on Hannibal and Will before Red Dragon...of course we all know that chances are in the last ever episode it'll be set right before Red Dragon and the capture of Hannibal..thats my theory anyway

And linking Wikipedia pages keep failing on this forum site.

Did the link fail? Man KMC seems to have it's fair share of problems right now I guess

Links to Wiki seem to regress to a more common idea of what the poster is referring to.

I was sent to Hannibal the military tactician instead of the TV series.

Regardless....this forum is an old system. Move on.

this show stinks... thought it was going to be good, but was wrong..

Bruce, you are so wrong I feel like slapping you across your stupid face.

lol

Mads Mikkelsen was awesome in Pusher I, Pusher II and Valhalla Rising. I predicted this as House mixed with a Sherlock Holmes type show. Was I way off?

So is the show any good?

And it doesn't look like its going to be updated, Since our gods or no longer with us.

Mads is amazing in this show. I'm surprised how good Hannibal is.

mads is making this show really good.. i cannot stop seeing norton as will graham.. this would have been so good if it was norton, fishburne and mikkelsen..

the more i see this show, the more i dislike the guy playing will graham..

Yeah, this series is amazing. I feel bad for not giving it a chance until now.

Best show I've seen all year!

Mads knocks the Lecter role out of the ball park.

Possibly. I need to rewatch season one again. I'm getting fuzzy.

^What I am talking about occurred in last week's episode of Hannibal. Or are you talking about rewatching season one in a generic tone?

Great episode. Jeez even in a show full of killers mason stands out as a full on scumbag.
