I saw Van Helsing yesterday.

[cerulean_sky]

There were elemments of good, and elements of "OMG, WTFF?"

ATTENTION: THE NEXT COUPLE PARAGRAPHS MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS FOR VAN HELSING. IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN IT, AND DON'T WANT IT TO BE SPOLIED FOR YOU, SIMPLY DO NOT READ AN FARTHER. THANK YOU.

On the other hand, Dracula, was AMAZING. I loved his "Love me, please?" complex. It gave him character. And a reason for being evil. Well, that and the fact that like... he is is evil itself practically.

And that whole thing with Dracula alluding to Van Helsing being the Angel Gabriel? "How does it feel to be the left hand of God?" I loved it.

Of course we get no answers because the filmakers said to themselves, "Wait! We can't give them all the answers! We are going to make a bad sequel which will almost answer the questions, but won't!" I'm telling you, the way that movie was made was made for sequels.

And Ana died. Which leaves sooooo much open to fanfiction writers. This movies doesn't make anything particularly hard about writing fanfiction. It leaves so much open.

Why did Velkan have to die? Ah, because he was pretty. Can't have too many pretty people running around at any given time, now can we? Will Kemp? Sooo good looking. So good looking.

Elements of good

[cerulean-sky.livejournal.com]

Well, no, there were some god things. Like, the fact that Dracula was hot. And Velkan was hot. And Hugh Jackman was hot. And Van Helsing and and Anna didn;t have any chemistry together.

But on the other hand, the FX were shit.

And there was the whole being murdered bit. Let's not forget that. And I'm wondering if Gabriel really was an angel or something ekse entirely. And if he was and angel, why was he left to get his ass kicked and abandoned on earth, eh? *nurtures Gabriel/Dracula bunnies* *dances on Ana's grave pile of ashes*

As for Velkan. Ohyeah. Way too hot to live.

I have a huge thing for Angels. I really do. So the whole thing that Van Helsing could possibly be Angel Gabriel just made my day. It brings so many... fun things... to mind. I love it.

Mmmm... Garbriel/Dracula.... I love them... XD

*joins you in dancing on Anna's ashes* Stoopid annoying woman. Well, stoopid annoying HOT woman, but still.

Why are the hot people always the first to die? There aren't enough pretty people to just go around killing them... *peevish*

*rapes Dracula*

I was sad that he died, even though I saw it coming. And dude...I so would have been his bride. Stupid Anna doesn't know what she's missing out on!

[cerulean-sky.livejournal.com]

Lol, I know... I would have been his bride too. He was teh sex. Really guh. Oh man... *gloms onto Lestat for comfort that you have already stolen Dracula* *forgets all bout Dracula as she nibbles on Lestat*

[ravenpirate.livejournal.com]

Hey, since it looks like he need three new brides anyway, you and I can be two of them! And then ressurect him somehow...We can do it if we put our minds together!

[cerulean-sky.livejournal.com]

Dude, I had an idea for him not really dying. Like, at the end of the movie, I just was like, "Well, he wouldn't really die if such and such happened..."

[ravenpirate.livejournal.com]

Oooo, tell me your idea!

[cerulean-sky.livejournal.com]

Well, ok. Think about it. Dracula was killed by by Angel Gabriel (assuming) and made a pact with the devil to live forever. The devil has some great scheme against god, yadda yadda yadda apocalyse blah blah blah, you've probably heard the sales pitch. Well, the devil brings back Dracula for his grand scheme against God/left hand of God = Gabriel, and the battle continues.

I think you should call Stephen Sommers and tell him that-seriously.

We need more Dracula!

And if he's brought back, we can be his next wives and stick by him and save him next time so he won't die. You and I can kill Van Helsing. MUWAHAHA! *rubs hands together*

[cerulean-sky.livejournal.com]

I think a friend of mine was going to use that in a fanfic actually... And she had this really great idea, but she thinks tha tit's going to be the sequel, and doesn't feel like she can write and feel good about it, because she'll be writing the next movie. XD Heh.

But yes, we do need more Dracula. Mmmm... XD
