Dracula

[CaptainWacky]

Is anyone going to watch this? Will it be good like some Moffat things (Doctor Who) or bad like other Moffat things (Sherlock)?

 

[whisky]

My money is on bad.

 

[CaptainWacky]

I demand to know if anyone is watching it and I refuse to watch it if no one is.

 

[Eggs Mayonnaise]

The timing is wrong. We've been flooded with vampire stories for over a decade, it's time for a lull so people can forget and then become interested again next decade.

 

[whisky]

I won't be watching.

 

[CaptainWacky]

But there's nuns with stakes!!!

 

[whisky]

Will they be raising them?

 

[Cassie]

I would watch it if the nuns had steaks.

 

[Eggs Mayonnaise]

I prefer nuns that sing and dance and roller skate and do water ballet.

 

[whisky]

I prefer nurses or maids to nuns.

 

[CaptainWacky]

Current status: not scheduled to watch this.

I actually ended up watching it (shock twist!) because I coudn't be bothered writing about Voyager. It was entertaining but I'm not sure if it was actually good or not. It took a very comedic, campy tone and I'm pretty sure wasn't accurate in the slightest to the original book. The guy playing Dracula was good. Mina was an idiot and deserved to die.

 

[whisky]

I watched hunt for the wilderpeople, it was great.

Was there any dracula sex?

 

[CaptainWacky]

No.

 

[CaptainWacky]

It was slightly gayer in part two.

 

[CaptainWacky]

I enjoyed episodes 2 and 3 more than part 1.

Dammit CaptainWacky

Everytime I see this thread I get this song in my head by Carol King (Who I love, so I totally don't mind, but srsly)

"I don't see him often
cuz he sleeps in a coffin
Nothing could be zanier
than our lives in Transelvania
we're fabulous one day
and rotten the next
Variety says
Those 2 must be hexed!
At 6 in the morning
when my sweety is yawning
I feed all the bats
a mush made of rats!
Then I tidy the tomb
cover all the trap doors
and wash any old blood stains
off of the floors!"

Episode 3 did suffer from feeling a bit rush and having really long scenes without either of the leads in it, introducing new characters who weren't that interesting. It's a perfectly skippable three part mini series really.
