If you enjoyed this movie, you will enjoy its predecessor Manhunter. Eric will love the camera work.
Hannibal tv show. The greatest interpretation of the character. It will blow your mind
@@mikeirvin6002 agreed! Masterpiece ...visual feast and amazing storytelling!
@@bazanime Not only is the Michael Mann camera work great, the soundtrack is absolutely incredible. I can still listen to it and close my eyes and see the movie in my head. Also the Brian Cox version of Dr. Lecktor is a different and more subtle evil than Anthony Hopkins and William Petersen's Will Graham is what lead me into CSI. A true experience!
Now you guys HAVE to watch Hannibal. ITS ON NETFLIX SO THERE IS NO EXCUSES. Its absolutely incredible. And this is like one of the only times I've commented on your channel other than an Agents of Shield episode. So yes this is very important to me and extremely worth your time. Its only 3 seasons but hey more content for you guys
Hannibal the show is fantastic. Everyone was skeptical about having a different person playing Hannibal but Mads is amazing in the role as well.
Hell Yeah, he's fantastic
I love the TV show
I would love them to react to the Hannibal show. There are very few people reacting to it, and its so good in dialog and filmmaking. I love it
Swift ハイドラ Its dialogue would make great discussions.
@@ChenSaiyanG yes indeed. I think Hannibal would be perfect for them. Their discussions are very indepth and the show would give them so much to talk about.
Jodie Foster never spoke to Anthony Hopkins during the entire shoot because he freaked her out during the read-through at the beginning. She avoided him the entire time while they were not shooting a scene together and on the very last day he approached her and she confessed that she was scared of him and he apparently replied "I was scared of you!" LOL
I guess that’s why she didn’t do Hannibal
Yeah, no. That’s not true. An explosion of blog articles 25 years later doesn’t make it true. Something like that would have been reported on at the time, not stayed secret for a quarter of a century.
@@chrissmith6097 To be fair, Jodie Foster herself told this story while appearing on the Graham Norton show a few years ago. You can find the clip here on RUclips.
@@-IIIpARxIII- Not dumb at all. Actors often find that if the characters they're playing are supposed to feel alien to each other they, the actors will avoid becoming close so they can use that sense of mystery in their acting.
@@-IIIpARxIII- LOL. Are you always this judgemental? You seem rather full of yourself.
I love how Anthony Hopkins and Mads Mikkelsen give two very different terrifying portrayals of Hannibal. Hopkins' Hannibal is so beautifully over the top and creepy in how he'll tell you exactly what monstrous shit is on his mind. Mikkelsen's Hannibal though, you never have any idea what he's thinking or what he's going to do. He could viciously murder you at the drop of a hat and never lose his composure.
Actually they can both be the same person. Most serial killers lose the mask after being caught. They become terrifyingly honest. So Mads is Hannibal before being captured and Hopkins is after older too. He has no reason to hide anymore.
@@passerby2562 I don't think so because even after Mads' Hannibal is incarcerated, he remains as composed and enigmatic as ever. It's not so much that he drops the mask and becomes more honest, as it the is the other characters now knowing that whatever he's thinking/planning can't be good.
@@christophercano8032 yeah I understand that, but I was thinking about it as a comparison to real life psychopaths. They would act like Mads Hannibal until they are caught then they become extremely honest and straight forward after being caught... they have lost the game. and I think that the reason Mads Hannibal stayed enigmatic is because he is still playing the game. And He has not been incarcerated for that long yet
Hannibal is also taken as nearly inhuman in the show. His form in Will’s mind is that of a Wendigo. Part animal, part human, part Other. That mysterious Other is his inhumaness, I’d say the Animal is the anger.
Mads is Hannibal from the books. Such a fantastic portrayal. ❤️
"I'm having an old friend for dinner" one of the best performances in film history Hannibal is also a phenomenal show
Something I absolutely love about the first meeting between Lecter and Clarice is this:
"Did you do those drawings, Doctor?
Hannibal Lecter:
Ah. That is the Duomo seen from the Belvedere. You know Florence?"
It's really easy to miss and you don't even realise how much Hannibal was playing them until the end when you find Buffalo's hometown of *Belvedere* , Ohio. Lecter knew everything from the very start.
“Well, Clarice - have the lambs stopped screaming?”
Hannibal Lector is still one of Anthony Hopkins' best and most chilling performances, and the moment where the FBI conduct the raid as Clarice ends up with Buffalo Bill is such a tense moment
So many movies have tried to recreate the tension that bait-and-switch caused, but this is still the best example.
That bait and switch moment is from the book amazed me. That’s more the kind of storytelling trick made for screenplays. I’m guessing the author was writing with the eventual film in mind.
a dumb moment too, what was an agent going there on their own?
@@NickCTorres investigating. Everyone else went to the other location because that’s where they thought they should go. She didn’t know she was going to the right place, she accidentally worked it out herself. She wasn’t expecting to find it.
In the book "Silence of the Lambs" they actually have a scene where she is still in one of her classes and they talk about the speed at which she can fire a pistol. It sets up the speed of her reaction and rate of fire in that final scene.
"That's what Calvin looked like before we found him" is so funny to me
"I wonder if he did stage stuff" about Sir Anthony Hopkins. ....GUYS. C'MON.
@@SCharlesDennicon twenty something?? They look like 30 something to me.
I was lucky enough to see him in two plays, as King Lear and Antony in Antony and Cleopatra. Even though I was right at the back of the theatre on both occasions, he was totally magnetic on stage.
@@SCharlesDennicon they're in their 30s. Aaron is married and have kids. They made videos before 2010 and were adults.
@@Lillith-uj7tt I thought late 30s / early ,40s but beards can be quite ageing. Even though they dress like teenagers.
@@SCharlesDennicon Eric was born in 86’ I believe, so definitely not 20s lol
The mocking accent hannibal uses at his first encounter with starling was improvised by hopkins. The offended face thad jodie foster makes is real
In an interview, Anthony Hopkins talks about when he went to watch the film with his mother on opening night, and part-way through the film, his own mother looked at him and shifted uncomfortably in her seat.
32:55 Fun Fact: psychopaths actually have lower heart rate variability than the average individual. Antisocial personality types don't get excited very easily, so if they do something extreme like commit a crime or tell a lie, their body doesn't react with the same level of stress you'd expect from most people.
(Will anyone read this? Probably not, but I'm leaving it here anyways!)
I read it, thanks for the info.
That explains my last check up. Thanks
Another fun fact
Psychopath is not a medically accepted term anymore. Its just ASPD, and the labels of psychopath and sociopath are no longer used because they are not accurate at all.
Explains why I don't get got by jumpscares. Many thanks.
23:35
“Uh he’s tucking”
“That’s a tuck”
“That was a tuck maneuver”
“He’s got it tucked in there”
...
“How do you know that?”
😂
I was like “Do all men do that once in their life?”
@@Satoi12 Not as men, usually before puberty begins most boys experiment out of curiosity.
@@Satoi12 yes
When you just got out of the shower but forgot your towel in the bedroom and now have to get by your roommate
I’m so glad so many people are mentioning NBC Hannibal, they might actually watch it. This is BIG for me people..
I mean, HUGH DANCY...MADS MIKKELSEN...LAWRENCE FISHBURN...GILLIAN ANDERSON..NEED I SAY MORE??? Talent across the board.
Exactly . When they see the comments full of "Hannibal TV" they might actually watch it .
Such a masterpiece of a show. Beautiful cinematography, an engaging story and incredible actors. It's my favorite show and i still need a season 4
@@sophiecooper3624 it's truly a masterpiece!! My all time favorite TV show!
Might i add Kacey Rohl, Caroline Dhavernas, Aaron Abrams, Scott Thompson, Hettienne Park and Lara Jean Chorostecki who all do a fantadtic job
Gina Torres (at the time, Mrs. Fishburne) as Bella Crawford. Such a great cast!
Dont forget Richard Armitage 😍
I REALLY WANT THEM TO REACT TO THE HANNIBAL TV SHOW:(
It seems like a lot of people want that . When they will See all the comments maybe they decide to do it
Damn right!!
For some reason I am genuinely surprised that Aaron and Eric hadn't seen this before 🤷♀️😂
Seeing all these comments for them to watch the show ol brings a tear in my eyes. I’ve been trying on Patreon for a long time lol
you guys should definitely watch the Hannibal TV show... It's a great show and I'm sure y'all would enjoy it a lot, definitely one of my favorite tv shows! Mads Mikkelsen does a fantastic job, I really love his version of the character.
excellent choice, sadly I think they would be struck down for copyright. There are fans of the show, sadly it's seems hard to react to it on yt.
Part of me wants to believe they watched this movie to get prepared for the show...
@@lucasdozza9750 I will not discourage optimism.
Nhe...
You guys should react to Hannibal the tv show staring mads mikkelesen as hannibal lecter it’s great I recommend it.
Please that would be so awesome
Most definitely...this show is just incredible!! They should definitely check it out👍
Sophie Cooper I second this completely! It’s the best show of the decade imo.
@@lovecrime13 100% agreed
THANK. YOU.
Such a tease mentioning the tv show lol. I know the rest of the comments are the same but god damn Hannibal is a great show to react to, I've run out of friends to show it to
A masterpiece!!
I wish more people would react to Hannibal; people that would actually *think* about it, not just talk all through it and react to the parts they noticed. BW actually talk through what they've seen, which makes me wish they'd do it more than other reactors.
Guys you should defenetly checkout the series Hannibal I think you all will going to love it. Mads Mikkelsen and Hughe Dancy at their finest
If you enjoyed this, the NBC show will blow you away-highly recommend!
@@SCharlesDennicon ^ this.
I think you meant since this movie blew you away, you might enjoy the NBC show
@@sparksdrinker5650 the show is better than all the movies
@@jrfi8264 Obviously you love the show, but I don't think it's even close to as good as Silence of the Lambs. But I'd agree it's better than the other movies.
Please consider reacting to the hannibal show. Its almost perfect to me in every way. Great film making, amazing acting by Mads Mikkelsen and the cast in general, soo gruesome and not afraid to show anything. Theres so many points I love about it. You'd be on the edge of your seats watching it, Im telling you!
Well, now they HAVE to watch the Hannibal tv show. Like, it's an obligation now.
Exactly
Well, not really...
Shut up, @@LordRavic
@@m1sh474 I never watched Hannibal show, is it even good as those movies?
@@belovedtruth3447 it starts very similar as the book Red Dragon, and deviates a little but the characters are faithful. Music, editing, ACTING, are superb. Different from Silence of the Lambs, better than the other movies Imo.
I laughed way too hard at "He had great aim"
One of my favorite movies! Please watch the Hannibal series next, it’s perfect for you guys to react to! Only three seasons, 13 episodes each. Thanks for the vid!
"How old is this movie? When did it come out?"
"91."
Me: Oh, the same year I was born.
"91? Man..."
"Almost 30 years old."
Me:
Haha im also born in 91. 30's closes in 😂
yep, the thirties are coming :-D
Get ready 90s kids! 😣
I watched this in theaters during the spring of my senior year.
REACT TO HANNIBAL (NBC series)
NBC????
@@suryasishtalukdar210 Yeah it's a NBC series. But it's on Netflix now
@M 40 If they hate it,they'll drop it after the pilot episode.
"His pulse never got above eight-five, even when he ate her tongue."
Hannibal was able to control his heart-rate.
You have to watch Hannibal the tv show someday.
Please react to Hannibal (tv series)
"See yaaa... he's tuckin', that's a tuck. That was a tuck maneuver. It just got tucked in there." lol
Aaron, your reaction to the tucking scene had me in stitches.
Do the Hannibal series. Please.
Hopkins embodied the contained fury of Lecter. It helps to know Lecter's backstory. And yeah, he has extremely refined sensibilities, and hates anything tacky. So the Gospel music was basically torture. But he could tune it out. Chilton was in way over his head.
Lecter knows he's abnormal, but he chooses to embrace his monster. And he's smart enough to keep it reined in when he wants to.
Manhunter is actually good. Very dated, but good.
Red Dragon wasn't awful... But it didn't Stand up to Silence.
The moth is a symbol of his personal transformation. It's a Death's Head moth, which has a skull on it. So transformation and death. He wanted a sex change, but was too mentally unstable to be a good candidate for the surgery. Moths are also associated with horror, the night, etc. So it represents his twisted perception of himself and others.
Guys, if you liked this, you should see Manhunter. You don't need the sequels, just this, Manhunter and the Hannibal TV show and you're complete.
Manhunter is soooooo underrated. Brian Cox is amazing and William Petersen (I think!?) plays a truer version of the agent, having more in common with the killers.
Fun fact, Manhunter was 5$ in bins before Silence. Then it jumped to 25$ due to demand.
Teresa Gonzalez Manhunter is much more of a slow burn, but with a lower budget. For some people, slow burn equals boring. The acting alone takes it up several notches. Go in knowing that and you should enjoy it. It's not on the level of Silence, but few movies are.
“We watch shit for a living” 😂 that’s GOLD
If you ever watch the TVshow - you're in for such a treat. It is a fantastic psychological drama, as well as a beautiful show about fine dining.
Fine dining? It's straight up food porn...
No cook show has ever made the food look so good!
@@iont8172 agreed. It is sumptuous. A feast for the eyes.
"About fine dining" , I straight up snort laughed at that. 🤣🤣🤣🤣. No but in all seriousness my culinary abilities increased exponentially ever since the show aired
please please PLEASE watch the show Hannibal. It's stunning television and easily one of my top 5 shows.
I was surprised Eric and Aaron had never seen this movie, but hey, I've never seen Star Wars
That's even more of a bruh
Sam Carroll I literally screamed bruh lol
You're not missing much, I recommend episode 4 and 5 but the rest of the films are insults to storytelling imo
i'd recommend episode 4, it's a nice adventure film, super simple plot, likable characters, like back to the future or indiana jones it's just a well made fun movie, if it doesn't pique your interest then i'd leave the rest of the series.
you should watch the prequels from 1999 episode 1-3 they are 10x better than the old movies from the 80s and the new movies are just trash
absolutely watch the show
Such a great, well-acted, well-directed and well-written movie. Will always be one of my favorites.
Well, you DEFINITELY need to watch Hannibal series. So freaking good!
Who thought non-cable TV could be so good.
24:10 one of my favorite twists ever, the victim using her brains and finding a way to hurt her captor. Probably wouldn't have worked without Clarice's timely arrival, but it was great seeing a victim fight back. "Don't you hurt my dog!" "DON'T YOU MAKE ME HURT YOUR DOG!"... followed by the aftermath with her holding the dog and getting wrapped in a blanket by the cops.
to answer your question: the last shot of the film was on one of the islands of Bimini in the Bahamas. i believe the island/town is only wide enough for one road.
Ugh you guys would LOVE the show Hannibal. Mads was AMAZING.
Please, please, PLEASE you need to react to "Hannibal" the series. One of my personal favorites, a piece of art really. Only if you are not squeamish ;)
damm one of my all time favourite movies, with so many iconic and parody worthy scenes this is an absolute clasic
The book was fiction but was loosely inspired by real serial killers such as Gary Heidnik who had an underground torture chamber for victims and Ed Gein, the Butcher of Plainfield, who robbed graves in order to acquire their bones and skin, making bowls, lampshades, and articles of clothing. The show HANNIBAL is great and is basically inspired by two paragraphs of the first book RED DRAGON where Will Graham and Lecter have a conversation and reflect on the strange bond they share through mutual understanding. The studio didn't have the rights to SILENCE OF THE LAMBS (those movie rights were given to a different studio after the first Red Dragon movie MANHUNTER did so poorly), so because of that and other factors the show really reboots the canon and couldn't have anyone named Clarice or Buffalo Bill or Jame Gumb. But it's great.
Ed Gein was also the inspiration of Norman Bates of “Psycho” fame.
haven't watched the full vid yet but just a fun fact: since Mads Mikkelsen is Danish, his name is actually pronounced "Mass"!
spock'n'roll WOW, I never would’ve thought Mikkelsen is pronounced ‘mass.’ Those crazy Danes...😏
"Is that skin? How is it like a butterfly?" Clearly hasn't seen Midsommar yet.
though they have seen Vikings
I hope one day they react to Red Dragon! It's the only other Hannibal film that's actually really good, haha.
Can't say I personally agree with it being the only other good Hannibal film. I remember Manhunter being very good, especially the visuals and acting.
@@DanWhatev completely forgot about Manhunted tbh. Agreed.
I don’t know about the only one, it’s definitely second best after Silence for me.
Have you seen Misery? If not, you definately need to react to this.
Blind Wave Meets The Silence of the Lambs?! Awesome!
Aaron: Is this Anthony Hopkins first role?
Eric: he did a commercial
Sigh. Lion in Winter, War and Peace (best version of Tolstoy's book), Hunchback of Notre Dame. Peter and Paul (ok that one I get not many have seen it)
Lion in winter is great
Don't forget The Elephant Man. It got 8 Oscar nominations and was one of the best movies of the 1980s. Hopkins was excellent in it.
Watch. Hannibal. Now.
The people need it!!
I've seen this film 20 times and always find something new. For example; when Chilton talks about how the nurse was attacked, Hannibal's pulse never raised above 85. Later, during Lector's escape in the ambulance, the attendant last words while Hopkins rises up behind, is him stating the patient's pulse is 84. Manhunter was a great film, with Brian Cox giving a more sedate but calculating performance. The series was great too.
Hannibal is one of the best TV shows ever,you guys definitely should react to it.
True.It’s fascinating. Netflix should pick it up, instead of cuties
Blind Wave watching Hannibal would be everything for me! I was sad to stop my Patreon but they've finished all the shows I watch so Hannibal would be a great way back in supporting them. Please watch!
Thank God for the guy in the middle of you three. He's the only one trying to take in the movie while the other two chat more than two old ladies coffee clutching after Sunday service!
Now you should watch the Hannibal TV show, absolute masterpiece from beginning to end
Seriously...You guys need to react to the HANNIBAL series. One of the best TV shows in the past decade.
Gillian Anderson as the anti-Scully.
Please please please watch "Mad Dog" and Hannibal the TV Show! Lol
There is a sequel, and a prequel. The Hannibal tv show is also amazing. I love the movies, the books and the tv show. I hope you react to all of them!
2 Prequels.
I wish they'd watch the Hannibal TV-Show. It's so good.
How has anyone not seen this movie???!!!
Lol I think some of us forget this movie is 29 years old. Lot's of people haven't seen it!
@@agsmith43 That's not really an excuse, especially since they love Star Wars^^
Modern comic book movies aren't a substitute for actual great movies of days past.
i havent seen it because my uncle watched it and i saw some of it as a kid and it terrified me i saw the part where he bit the guys face
Literally my entire family.
Now you have to watch the TV show. It is so awesome! Great actors, amazing sets and music. DO IT!!! :-)
You guys should watch the TV show too
Watch HANNIBAL the series you'll love it
love middle dudes ability to remain silent.
Just- watch NBC's Hannibal--- i'm begging you
Okay now let's get them to watch the other films and then the series
No
@@CymruJedi Red Dragon is great
Watch Hannibal (tv show) next! It’s amazing! It’s very unique in its aesthetic and dialogue. We will keep bugging you until you do. You won’t regret it.
What is it on??
Logan W it’s currently on Netflix! :)
a I thank you
This movie is amazing!! It also won 5 Oscars in 1992 for Best Actor (Hopkins), Best Actress (Foster), Best Director, Best Screenplay, and Best Picture
I hope you react to the TV series Hannibal. It 's so good!!!
I'm joining the chorus of voices recommending you to watch the TV show. Hannibal is a gem among TV series - it's like dark beautiful art, gruesome yet elegant, even theatrical at times.
Mads Mikkelsen and Hugh Dancy are fenomenal - their chemistry, the way they developed these iconic characters and their relationship is something I've rarely seen in cinematography.
Will be glad to see your reaction to this show.
Perfectly said. This show is something else .
My favorite piece of acting in this whole film is where she finally tells the whole story and he is about to tell her what she needs to know... except Chilton enters... and so he has to clam up... and you can see his anger, regret and then all of it fade into a blank shell in moments....
You know that once she told him the truth, he wanted to make good on his part, but COULDN'T because he absolutely would not share that information with Chilton.
I just started season 2 of Hannibal and holy crap is it amazing. So intense, you guys should totally react to it
PLEASE watch Hannibal the show, it is absolutely spectacular.
The guy who played Buffalo Bill was also Captain Stottlemeyer on the show Monk. Took me 20 years to figure that out.
Gotta watch Hannibal (2001) and Red Dragon now. Then Hannibal the TV series!
Oh, man. I sincerely hope you guys tackle Hannibal now that you've seen the Silence of the Lambs. It was just spectacularly done.
Scott Glen (Crawford) has been in a ton of movies: Urban Cowboy, The Right Stuff, Hunt for Red October... the list is endless. Great actor!
Watch Hopkins early starring gig in the film 'Magic' (1978), you can see bits of what would later become Lector in his brilliant performance.
Eric killed me in the first 10 min!!🤣🤣🤣
Hannibal is a great show, hope you guys react to it
John Douglas, the criminal profiler that is the basis for Holden in Mindhunter is mentioned in the "Thank You" section of the credits for this film, so I'm glad Eric brought up that show.
That first scene with Hannibal and Clarice is so amazing! Hopkins definitely earned every bit of that Oscar!
"Whenever feasible, one should always try to eat the rude."
I think you would love the TV show, hope you'll react to it some day!
24:47 "You cant get us, we watch shit for a living" Blind Wave Quote of the Month
This is such a classic horror movie, I love this one.
Eric needs Shane as a sounding board for when he's being silly, love you Eric, you make me giggle, great reaction!! Classic thriller movie!!
So there's a reaction to the Mads Mickelson Hannibal series coming right?
I'd like to add my voice to recommend the TV show Hannibal! Some other reactors manage on RUclips, but if you run into copyright trouble, you could as a last resort make it a Patreon-only reaction, I would totally pay to see it!
Okay now that I've heard the end-of-movie commentary you've got to check out the Hannibal show. You guys would have so much insight into all of it. Please please please, when next you have an open tv show slot to fill consider doing Hannibal. I think you'll like it.
The scene that shows him looking at the pen is meant to show what he was really focusing on , doctor Chilton was careless and Hannibal probably took the pen as soon as he got a chance during that day
I'm gonna add another comment about the TV show Hannibal, it is truly a work of art and might just be my favourite show of all time
Watch Hannibal on Netflix ...ive been obsessed since 2013! 😀loads of fannibals out here that would enjoy watching yall FREAK OUT!
Yes, Fannibals assemble! 😁
@@sophiecooper3624 lmao

I love while Kathrine is screaming bloody murder in the movie, Eric decides that Bill isn’t the organ player, and Arron goes off on him, making Eric laugh
