I'm dumbfounded.  I mean, it's an old saw to say that the book was better than the movie.  But to say that the book was better than the movie even though the one who adapted the book for the movie was the author himself?  I think I'm gonna need a little help getting my jaw off the floor. . . .]]> Wed, 02 Jan 2013 00:16:14 +0000 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5901&PID=53345#53345 Member Discussion: ABE: VAMP AVENGER... : Exactly!

The ending scene of this movie (which was pretty much the only few minutes I liked about Abe Lincoln Vampire Hunter) has gotten me so excited about Spielberg's Lincoln. I love period pieces, and I've been to Vicksburg. 

I'm wondering if it will play a role in the subject of the up-coming movie. Man, I cannot wait!

I've finally seen it, and it was... actually decent! For a movie about Abraham Lincoln killing vampires, the acting is good. The action scenes are good, mainly because of Timur Bekmambetov's direction. The script is a mess, but not bad enought to ruin the experience. 

My Grade: B-

This made about $16 mil for the weekend. That's more than Jonah Hex made in its entire run, and this got better reviews. I say this because AL:VH and Jonah Hex have a lot in common. They're both fantasy-action movies set in the Civil War era, and both opened against Pixar movies. 

Since my dad wants to see this, I won't be in too much pain...

Due to the numerous times I've seen this movie's trailer, I am hardly surprised by its presence on the forum.

Oh and it's ironic that 20th Century Fox are distributing it since they are also acting as the international distributors for the OTHER film concerning Abe Lincoln (Steven Spielberg's upcoming biopic of the man himself).]]> Sat, 23 Jun 2012 09:52:42 +0000 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5901&PID=51401#51401 Member Discussion: ABE: VAMP AVENGER... : I7d5FGYc0C83daPzsSZEG8 ... http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5901&PID=51398#51398 Author: Vits

R.T. (35-45%): "It has visual style to spare, but its overly serious tone doesn't jibe with its decidedly silly central premise, leaving filmgoers with an unfulfilling blend of clashing ingredients".

Roger Ebert gave it 3 stars out of 4.

UP-DATE from Ye Olde Head RAZZberry: It's opening day for this movie, and my comment above about Fox's lack of print advertising for ABE: VAMP BABE KILLER seems prescient: Neither today's L.A. Times nor the Orange County Register (the two main papers in the "Greater L.A. Area") have even a tiny print ad for this. They both do, however, have reviews slamming the film. The review in The Register gave it a grade of "D" and opened with the line: "Enormous in its scope and colossal in its stupidity!"...
