I'm gunna go see the Van Hellsing movie with it comes out XD though I'll go see it sunday instead of friday (that way I wont have to pay to see it ;) ).
I think it's gunna rule all and get people to like werewolves and vampires again (since Underworld wasn't nearly as cool as it could've been). But because it's PG13 and Underworld was boring as all and stuff, I'm worried that VanHellsing is going to be just as bad. I know, I know.. Made by different people. But I just have this paranoia now XD
Anyway, how good do you think it'll be? Are you gunna go watch it?
And after you get around to watching it, tell us about your view on it ^^`

I hope its good. i ahve a bad feelign about it cause its taking various characters from various books and throwing them tegether out of context into a action flick. It looks nice. I'm just worried the actual story will suck.
Well, heres hoping it comes out alright :)

I watched the movie.
Calm your fears, Lewimew. The actual story is very good. I recommend that everyone goes to see this movie.
It isn't a straight forward storyline, but is easily understood. There are a BUNCHA characters with diffy personalities. Good scenes. The MUSIC RULES! Ahh.. I liked all the characters ^^` cept the grave guy, he was a jerk.
It's action and adventure with a touch of humor to it - to make everything balance out very well. . I caught myself bursting out laughing at a few parts. *nod*
Now onto 2 things I found funny about the movie (don't read if you haven't seen):
One is that for a while Van Hellsing reminded me shitloads of Vampire Hunter D. Maybe it's the hat. Mind you, his personality is muchos different. And the movie isn't a D ripoff XD.
Secondly. The whole buttugly Dracula oompaloompas. Sure they're like disgruntled workers, but come on. XD I think they should've had somehting better.. like zombies or something working under him as slaves. Bah.. Aw well.

i'm gonna see this movie soon, i like the way the Harpies look from the trailers. I also like the fact its like dracula but, hyped up on crack, as opposed to the mellow original lol. if ya'll remeber Van Hellsing is from the novel "Dracula"

I thought it was alright. I didn't mind that they messed with the story a bit. Makes it more fun that they did. I thought the werewolves were awesome looking. And what the hell were with the little workers who worked for Dracula? WTF are those?! o__O Anyway, I thought the movie was a bit long, but was pretty good for the most part. Few things that were unrealistic, but that's to be expected. XD It did have good music, though strangely enough, it reminded me a lot of LotR music with guitars.

The movie was quite surprising, I especially like the weapons *drools* the crossbow was very cool.
SPOILER!!!!
Oh and let me say that the werewolf van helsing was really creepy and cool at the same time

Well, here is my input on this movie. Yes it was a FAIRLY good movie i believe, but there were certain things i didnt really like about it.
The first thing i didnt like was the Black and White in the beginning, It made the movie a lil boring to watch at first and i almost left. The next thing was the fact on how dracula died.... It seemed a little lame to me, but that may have just been me. But I loved that frikken Crossbow that was the sweetest thing i have ever seen. And the Fact that he reminded me of Vampire Hunter D ( as mentioned by KK ) was the kewlest thing ever.

jeez how did the black and white make it boring, it reminded me of the original Van Helsing, AKA Dracula lol. if it had no sound during the black and white part i can see it being boring...
