Yes.![]()
This should happen
If only LACMA had a Hannibal night every week until the end. It was surprisingly fun watching the Red Dragon episode with a bunch of fans that get the humor.
Managed to capture the entire convo w/ Fuller. Will see about uploading it soon unless someone puts up a better quality version. Plenty of interesting bits were discussed such as sound design and the food consultant. Also met him and said hi before the show started. Very friendly and kind. Dude is tall.
Feel like there was some meta talk coming from Chilton about "Hannibal" in this episodeI'm sure some negative nancy's will enjoy that.![]()
Fucking superb first episode of the Red Dragon arc. A real return to the format of season 1.
Hannibal's line about the beer lol. That dish looked amazing, though.
Is Gillian Anderson gone from the show, now?No sign of her for two episodes and I can't see how she'd come back into it considering where Hannibal is. Hoping we haven't seen the last of Margo either but I fear it is.
I don't even know when or how to update now.NBC really fucked up this thread nicely with the time change.
Am I the only one bothered with Joe Anderson as Mason ? He sounds so annoying.
Any reason Michael Pitt left ?
No one knows, but it probably has something to do with Pitt's reputation of being impossible to work with.
If the worst comes to pass and Hannibal does end for good on August 29, then Hugh Dancy - the troubled Will Graham - believes that the last episode filmed could serve as a satisfying de-facto series finale.
"Every season that we've shot so far has concluded in a way where there was always a sword of Damocles hanging over us," he noted. "If it had to [serve as a series finale], it could. it would be satisfying - [but] it could also serve as a good jumping-off point for another season."
A potential fourth season of Hannibal would, Fuller revealed, reinvent the dynamic between Will and Hannibal (Mads Mikkelsen) "in a huge way" - he bills it as a reinvention of the entire series.
"Bryan described how a prospective fourth season might play out - or feature film, whatever it might be at this stage - and it was such a different place for them to go," Dancy said. "I thought it sounded fascinating - an amazing inversion and almost a return to the first season, but a new kind of storytelling."
Fuller also once again voiced his desire to bring a version of Harris's second Lecter novel, 1988's Silence of the Lambs, to the screen - a desire that has so far been frustrated by MGM, who hold the rights to the book.
"Martha [De Laurentiis, executive producer] has the rights to every character who originated in Red Dragon, so they track through all the books, but she doesn't have the rights to whoever originated in Silence of the Lambs," he explained.
"So no Buffalo Bill, no Clarice Starling, no Barney, no Ardelia Mapp - those characters, which are all very fantastic, we don't have rights to.
"We tried - every year we'd go back to MGM. At first, it was a hard 'No', then it was 'Ask us later' and then it was 'Ask us again next year' - it would be fantastic [if they agreed]."
Fuller even has an Oscar-nominated actress in mind to play FBI rookie Clarice: "I love Ellen Page," he revealed. "I think she would be a great Clarice - but I also love the idea of casting somebody who's not white in that role.
"Having race play a factor in Clarice's background, in a way that race plays a factor in everybody's background, I think that would be an interesting exploration of the character."
Oh man, the idea of Ellen Page as Clarice is fantastic, as is Fuller's thoughts on a race-swapping Clarice. But it only serves to stoke the embers of disappointment considering a season 4 is looking unlikely, let alone actually getting the rights to Silence at this point
Still, maybe this could lead to some inspired fanart of Ellen Page and Mads. Paging Feran.
And here's the convo with Fuller from last night at LACMA. There's something about a lamb's vagina in there, but they haven't had to use it yet.

Saying the video is private right now. If you change it to unlisted than no one will be able to find it via search or your channel or anything, but the link will still work for us to see it here.
Fixed.
Ah man Ellen Page as Clarice would be amazing. I'd love to draw that someday haha. Here's what I drew so far for this season
Red Dragon start was amazing. The dude feels so inhuman and yet his murders feels also so much more brutal and more..promitive that what we've been getting so far.
Also... was that first murder in pilot episode his? It looked like it.
Goddammit... I hope this isn't the end. I want S3 blu-ray sales to be amazing for someones ears to perk up and offer them something new to get a season 4 or a movie.
I won't even be surprised if season 3 doesn't even get a Blu-Ray/DVD release. Constantine isn't. NBC: Couldn't be bothered!

It still airs on Thursdays in Canada.Wait--this aired in some parts of the country? I turned it on and Dateline was playing, and everything online said this would be on Saturday night.
Way to make sure everyone downloads the last few eps NBC. Idiots.
Beautiful work!Ah man Ellen Page as Clarice would be amazing. I'd love to draw that someday haha. Here's what I drew so far for this season

Oh, NBC.Season 3: episode 8 "The Great Red Dragon"
Hannibal has been imprisoned for three years at the Baltimore State Hospital when a new villain emerges in one Francis Dolarhyde. Jack reaches out to Will to help him track down the brutal serial killer.
This is the first watchable episode of S3 without needing skipping. What the hell is going on with S3? Episodes are full of one-liners, seems to be no story or anything happening than every two characters sit and whisper one-liner comebacks at each other.
I watched the first two seasons and loved it. This seasons is NOT the Hannibal show I've been watching for two seasons.
I heard the show was canceled before watching S3. Now I know why: It went to shit.
It went very abstract/high concept while Hannibal was on the run. I know some people loved, but it feels like a terribly bad decision in hindsight. I was completely inaccessible and even ended up pushing some viewers away, they spent too much time with when they should have been where we are now at least three episodes ago.
Maybe they just wanted to give some depth/weight to Hannibal on the run, but it was a just mess for me. I hated every single second of it and I'm so so happy that the show is finally back to what made it so good during seasons 1 and 2.
I agree with you, the artsy stuff was a bit too much in the first episodes. But these last three/four episodes have been great and were on par with previous season imo.
The Red Dragon episode was great, Armitrage is creepy without saying shit.
Is any of this new info? Fullers opens up on cancellation.
I think Ellen Page is a pretty inspired choice, but I'd love to see what he would do with a non-white Clarice, too.
Ellen Page as Clarice is really really good. I still want Lee Pace in this show somehow. If it gets renewed elsewhere
Could work...
