the end of the series seriously implied that Tony was whacked, so making a movie is kind of odd because how are they going to explain that last episode?
Though I think Jodie Foster was of course incredible in the role of Clarice and the film deserved it 5 Oscars (which is a record.. it's only the second film in history to win this many Oscars. the first being One Flew Over the Cuckoo's nest) I saw Hannibal and I love Julianne Moore and thought she did a great job. But the movie wasn't very good itself. I don't like the idea of Cat Blanchett. She's an OK actress but she's not tough enough or good enough to play Clarice. I also don't think they need to do a fourth movie. This movie was amazing, but the ones that followed weren't very good and they need to stop while they are... where they are instead of making it worse.
Have a great Friday!
