It's interesting that Sofia Boutella is featured in the photo. Perhaps in the end of The Mummy Tom Cruise doesn't kill her and she ends up joining Russel Crowe's notSHIELD?
Devin Dyquisto I think they are waiting to see how the mummy does critically and financially before they decide to go all in and cast the rest of the monsters.
Jon Snow I love Mads, I always suggest him in all "casting-idea-videos" But I want him in the DCEU as Ra's al Ghul... He seems to be finished with Marvel so why not... If not Ra's al Ghul, he also looks good with a bald head like in Pusher 2, he could play Dr. Hugo Strange as well but I wanna see Mads fight with his bare hands and that won't happen with Hugo so it gotta be Ra's
Jon Snow Yeah he could play them but he should be able to show his face uncovered, if you watched Hannibal you know why I want it like that... He would be the most evil and powerful Ra's ever
I definetly want that version Dracula back.That was one of the few, if not the only to make some justice for the "real" Dracula, Vlad Tepes(The Impaler).
Bradley B I feel like Eva should play an original main supporting character like Cruise's, and not a universal monster character. Maybe she could play a witch? They lacking witch.
Johnny Depp Is Really Trying To Save His Career... The Final Pirates Film, The Next Harry Potter Franchise & Now The Monster Universe... Don't dive deep into his (Personal Life) But acting wise let's see how he does.
The Simple Life Of You X Me I don't think so. It's more he needs the money following his divorce and is really willing to do projects which he previously would have ignored.
So did they ever cast The Bride? Not that any of this even matters anymore, but they should’ve just kept Dracula Untold although Mads Mikkelsen as Dracula would’ve been pretty cool. And what about the other characters? I wonder who would’ve been cast as The Creature from the Black Lagoon (probably some CG Mo-cap), The Phantom of the Opera, The Hunchback, and the Wolfman, although I’m still remembering Benicio Del Toro’s remake, too.
Penny Dreadful was great. I'm holding my opinion on this until after I see "The Mummy." At this point, I'm a bit underwhelmed by the monsters represented. We still need Dracula and the Wolfman to make this really feel like a "monsterverse".
Best quote from this video at 4:38 Danny Elfman: "Monsters? I must be there! Are you sure Tim Burton isn't involved in this?" Grace: "He's been touch and go himself. Let him go make 'Dumbo'."
Johnny Depp looks like he's lost some weight. For a while there during his divorce and such he started to balloon up like Brando. Glad to see him looking healthier
I adored Penny Dreadful and my heart broke when it got cancelled. I am all in for any sort of gothic drama, specially with gothic literature characters and even more so if it has action in it. So This will fill the void PD left in me. Plus im sick of super hero movies so give me classic monsters any time you want!
Boris Karloff,Bella lugosi,and Lon Chaney, Jr. acted in most of Universals Monster movie period from the 1920s to 1950s . Legends all so good luck to Universal's Dark Universe as they walk in the footsteps of these legends.
You know what will instantly triple my interest in this project? Fleshing out the Gill-Man's story by incorporating Lovecraftian elements. The Gill-Man doesn't actually have to be a literal Deep One, but if it is a (the?) remnant of a technologically/magically powerful race from impossibly, unfathomably long ago...yeah. I'd be down with that.
you liked season 3? i thought it had great potential which was unfortunately let down by the imminent cancellation of the series. vanessa's character was poorly wrapped up for the sake of closure and the introduction of the vampire hunter led to nowhere
I REALLY hope that this Dark Universe takes with the mainstream because I would love to see modernized versions if all of these classic monsters, this is really exciting!
Grace, are you sure "Nick Morton" is not going to be revealed to be the Dark Universe's Van Helsing? Alex Kurtzman was supposed to direct the 2012 Van Helsing reboot, that Tom Cruise was attached to.
"Dark Universe" then why are you going the action blockbuster route and not keeping the horror. I mean I hope the action will be balanced by dark horror.
tubepunksheep Why you think The Mummy trailers are more action packed with small sparkles of horror. Horror is only good if its done. Don't Breath was a good example until....that scene
I have a feeling it's going to be. I might be wrong. But from what I have seen it's a tom cruise flick with lots of running, flat female lead, and cheap action hero protagonist v evil. Been there dunndatt.
i think they got the role of Jekyll/Hyde right, and if Tom Cruise is who i think he will be, they also got that right because that character would need to be in the first movie as he will be in mnay of them. But personally i would do a bigger character before i did bride of Frankenstein. Frankenstein would have been a good one, and then bride of Frankenstein.
I love Javier Bardem. One of the best actors in film history. If Shelley's original tragic anti-hero is featured as opposed to a brainless zombie, this could be a legitimate great horror film and great film, period.
the only actress i can think of for bride of frankenstine is helena bonham carter, but with the way they're playing it up it sounds like it's going to be meryl streep or someone at that level
Everyone is getting their own reboot. The Creature From The Black Lagoon, The Invisible Man, Dracula, Frankenstein, Van Helsing, The Wolf Man, Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde, The Bride Of Frankenstein, and The Mummy. I can't wait for the new Universal Monsters Cinematic Universe.
My pick for Bride of Frankenstein would be Anne Hathaway. Notwithstanding her current economic value to the movie business, I think she'd be a great pick in terms of acting skills for that role.
I really hope Johnny Depp isn't the Invisible Man. Griffin is supposed to be terrifying, arrogant, and furious (not to mention insane). I can't imagine Depp doing anything other than making him awkwardly goofy and being 'angry' with wooden shouting.
Loved League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, and Penny Dreadful. This line up is missing Dracula, and I think they need to tie into either of the vamires in Dracula untold, or both.
There was a rumor that Universal was courting Angelina Jolie, for the role of the Bride of Frankenstein. Though, it is very possible she did not want it. The studio would have waited to release that cast photo, if she was in the process of signing a contract.
lou mertens Those actresses are too young to play a love interest for Javier Bardem. Whereas Angelina Jolie has a striking, unearthly look with a powerful on-screen presence. I also think her exaggerated features add to the idea of her being unnatural. You would also need an A-list actress to compete with such big names as Tom Cruise and Johnny Depp and, while Lupita is very popular, Astrid is unknown to most.
PENNY DREADFUL is/was amazing!!! And I guarantee you: the films in DArk Universe won't be as nuisance, emotional, suspenseful and completely full of characters fully realized as they were throughout 3 seasons of the amazing PENNY DREADFUL.
I feel Universal is getting ahead of themselves. If the Mummy doesn't do good then they have to try to convince everyone that the other movies won't be bad either. Than again we won't know till the Mummy comes out.
It depends on which version of the Creature they want to use. I agree he's a waste if they're going with the "dumb brute" version that Karloff made famous. If they're going with the (very) intelligent, articulate Creature from the novel, then I can see Bardem knocking it out of the park.
Hi Grace,I would like to know what are your thoughts on Zack Synder stepping down from Justice League due to a family tragedy and Joss Whedon stepping in to finish the production and etc of the film?
Sure their pulling a DCEU (they even have their own Green Lantern esq false start) but the difference here is that Universal have had time to think this all up as opposed to DC who just said "oh let's make man of Steele the start of a cinematic universe quickly lets cast batman"
so is tom cruise playing an Alan quartermain type character or is he actually the mummy of the franchise? someone answer me if they have watched the movie and understand the ending better than i do because i'm confused as to what exactly his role is now due to the twist ending
I can't wait to find out who Bride is, but I agree, the should have waited for that announcement before this official Dark Universe reveal and the cast photo. That would have really propelled this story into the spotlight.
Hello Grace, Usually When I watch your channel I tend to agree on many things that you point out, however I think Universal/Dark Universe is going to be Absolutely Amazing!!
At first it thought you were talking about the Justice League Dark movie and I got sooo excited when I saw Sofia Boutella because I want her to play Zatanna soo badly
Alan Quartermaine is public domain. Maybe Tom Cruise didn't want to play that character for some reason? Maybe Universal is worried about the League of Extroardinary Gentlemen movie's stink? Maybe they have another plan we don't know about for that character? Maybe nobody at Universal was smart enough to think of it, and they should hire you as a consultant?
If your gonna have a team of monsters, you HAVE to have Dracula in there! Creature from the black lagoon in there as well for a bit of monster variety.
I'm willing to bet that Tom Cruise's character, Nick Morton, is supposed to be the actual 'Mummy', and Sofia Boutella's character is a red herring. Or, he's supposed to be a descendant of Van Helsing, considering he's casted in the Van Helsing movie as well.
It is probably a combination of both, and Nick Morton is the reincarnation/descendent of the Mummy's lost lover and Van Helsing. In the 1932 film, the mummy tried to kill and mummify a woman, because she looked like the princess he loved.
I wonder if there would be crossovers like in the MCU. Could Russell Crowe's Dr. Jekyll appear in multiple movies? If they were to do something like that where they reference the other movies, I think THEN I would enjoy this.
It's interesting that Sofia Boutella is featured in the photo. Perhaps in the end of The Mummy Tom Cruise doesn't kill her and she ends up joining Russel Crowe's notSHIELD?
My kids are going to think they are making movies out of the Hotel Transylvania characters😂😂😂
J.R. Knight 😂😂😂
J.R. Knight 😂😂😂😂😂😂 That's hilarious man.
Bring back Luke Evans as Dracula please
Where's wolfman? Or Creature from the black lagoon? Also bring back Luke Evans as Dracula. You can't have the monster squad with no Dracula
Devin Dyquisto I think they are waiting to see how the mummy does critically and financially before they decide to go all in and cast the rest of the monsters.
They're part of it...
Grace, I love you. Danny Elfman: "I smell monster movies. I must compose their music!" That bit cracked me up.
same haha
I actually like the logo and enjoyed Dracula untold.
There are reports that Universal wants Angelina Jolie to play the Bride of Frankenstein.
Johnny's team cleaned him up well for this photo, i wonder if he's going to try save his image with some good pr! charity work and stuff
Corey Williams Well he was on Ellen last week sharing pics of visiting Children's hospitals.
Corey Williams idk i kinda hope depp plummets as a celeb with a sudden turn of a whole lotta bad pr
D Reynolds. LOL! Laying it on THICK
Seeing Depp there I'm much more looking forward to him in future Fantastic Beasts sequels he looks a lot more cleaned up now
someone already has that username its called being casual
Harry Potter, pirates, and dark universe, I guess Jonny Depps money troubles are at an end.
Nope he has got a Gold digger of an ex that is trying to get out anything and everything of him in the divorce.
Rob Scoggins i hope she gets it all.
MasterPiece 1419 LOL! She better WERK!
Rob Scoggins
they worked out a settlement and she gave all the money to a anti-domestic abuse charity. such a gold digger move.
Taz Farrell that betch.
Mads Mikkelsen as Dracula. Do it Universal.
Jon Snow That'd be awesome!!
Jon Snow I love Mads, I always suggest him in all "casting-idea-videos"
But I want him in the DCEU as Ra's al Ghul...
He seems to be finished with Marvel so why not...
If not Ra's al Ghul, he also looks good with a bald head like in Pusher 2, he could play Dr. Hugo Strange as well but I wanna see Mads fight with his bare hands and that won't happen with Hugo so it gotta be Ra's
Jon Snow id rather see Him as Von Helsing
Leonardo Morsen He would be a good Ra's al Ghul and Hugo Strange, he could also play a good Brainiac or Sinestro.
Jon Snow Yeah he could play them but he should be able to show his face uncovered, if you watched Hannibal you know why I want it like that...
He would be the most evil and powerful Ra's ever
so when they unite who do they face?
simplyrecommended movie
simplyrecommended Thanos
simplyrecommended Van Helsing :P
Santa Claus
Martha
Penny Dreadful was absolutely incredible, I don't know what you're talking about Grace.
Keep Luke Evan's Dracula
Perfect idea
You think The Mummy gonna be a masterpiece? haha.. Bring Vlad Back!!
Untold even had a cliffhanger ending on modern era, everything fits!!
#Oğulcan Kılıç Maybe, but Luke Evans was dope as Modern Dracula.
I liked Dracula Untold...it was decent for what it was. A B Dark Fantasy movie.
I definetly want that version Dracula back.That was one of the few, if not the only to make some justice for the "real" Dracula, Vlad Tepes(The Impaler).
Penny Dreadful was amazing! so sad it's gone. great cast as well. Eva Green should be brought in for the Dark Universe. she's amazing.
Bradley B I agree with every single word
Bradley B I feel like Eva should play an original main supporting character like Cruise's, and not a universal monster character. Maybe she could play a witch? They lacking witch.
Eva Green should portray 1 of the Brides of Dracula
For a second i thought it's justice league dark movie -.-
Merziah Kardashian I love your pro pic lol
was about to ask that
Merziah Kardashian Me too, I nearly screamed when I saw the actors🙁
Hope that someday they show something of the Justice League Dark live action, I need it so much!
A.L Joseph ohhh thanks 😊
Johnny Depp Is Really Trying To Save His Career... The Final Pirates Film, The Next Harry Potter Franchise & Now The Monster Universe... Don't dive deep into his (Personal Life) But acting wise let's see how he does.

its not the last pirates movie. theres one more
Ali G G ,
Dom510 the last one that came out
i love everything Johnny Depp is in! he's so good!
I would hope for Jessica Chastain as the Bride of Frankenstein.
I like that idea that the Prodigium cuts a deal with Princess Ahmanet, rather than destroy her.
The slip of the tongue at 3:29 - Frankenstein - made my day!
Your videos give me such a different perspective on movies!!
:)
So did they ever cast The Bride? Not that any of this even matters anymore, but they should’ve just kept Dracula Untold although Mads Mikkelsen as Dracula would’ve been pretty cool.

ShnNar1000x and creature from the black lagoon. that's the monster im most excited for because if done right a modern take on it could be awesome
Best quote from this video at 4:38
Danny Elfman: "Monsters? I must be there! Are you sure Tim Burton isn't involved in this?"
Grace: "He's been touch and go himself. Let him go make 'Dumbo'."
Let's be honest; Tom Cruise is playing Van Helsing.
Where's Luke Evan's Dracula?
A. Charles Ross AKA Phantom Lock Creates scrapped.
Darn I rather enjoyed that movie
Oh gosh your comments about Johnny Depp 😆😆😂 you never fail to make me laugh
Why can't we just get a reboot of The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen?????
Johnny Depp looks like he's lost some weight. For a while there during his divorce and such he started to balloon up like Brando. Glad to see him looking healthier
I adored Penny Dreadful and my heart broke when it got cancelled. I am all in for any sort of gothic drama, specially with gothic literature characters and even more so if it has action in it. So This will fill the void PD left in me. Plus im sick of super hero movies so give me classic monsters any time you want!
Where is dorian gray , I really felt he was a key part of what made penny dreadful great
Cate Blanchett as bride of Frankenstein, now that would be a big name.
Sofia Boutella had a fair amount of dialogue in Star Trek Beyond and she was pretty good
Boris Karloff,Bella lugosi,and Lon Chaney, Jr. acted in most of Universals Monster movie period from the 1920s to 1950s . Legends all so good luck to Universal's Dark Universe as they walk in the footsteps of these legends.

The Gill-Man doesn't actually have to be a literal Deep One, but if it is a (the?) remnant of a technologically/magically powerful race from impossibly, unfathomably long ago...yeah. I'd be down with that.
I really hope the mummy is good
the reactions from early screenings were very positive.
penny dreadful was amazing season 2 and 3 were fantastic!!!! Give it another shot!
you liked season 3? i thought it had great potential which was unfortunately let down by the imminent cancellation of the series. vanessa's character was poorly wrapped up for the sake of closure and the introduction of the vampire hunter led to nowhere
PastAsylum95 they didnt cancel it actually. the showrunners were just done with the show.
i think that was a lie created by Showtime's PR department. the series was simply too expensive to justify its small cult following.
i read the leagues of gentlemen comic thanks to the movie
I REALLY hope that this Dark Universe takes with the mainstream because I would love to see modernized versions if all of these classic monsters, this is really exciting!
I thought Dark Universe was what DC was gonna call Justice League Dark?
Well Justice league Dark is already a thing in the comics but I think they might think to change the name
lol! Though that's just part of the DCEU.
Ruben Avalos Maybe they can call it The DC Extended Dark Universe.
Grace, are you sure "Nick Morton" is not going to be revealed to be the Dark Universe's Van Helsing? Alex Kurtzman was supposed to direct the 2012 Van Helsing reboot, that Tom Cruise was attached to.
chocolateyes613 I think your right and tom cruise's character will end up being like a modern day descendant of van helsing
"Dark Universe" then why are you going the action blockbuster route and not keeping the horror. I mean I hope the action will be balanced by dark horror.
Ruben Avalos It won't. Horror hasn't beem relevant for years.
Exactly! I'm not going to watch Ethan Hunt punch a mummy to death.
Antoine Scott. Now that you say that it makes sense they would make this movie. Man, I'm disappointed.
tubepunksheep Why you think The Mummy trailers are more action packed with small sparkles of horror. Horror is only good if its done. Don't Breath was a good example until....that scene
I have a feeling it's going to be. I might be wrong. But from what I have seen it's a tom cruise flick with lots of running, flat female lead, and cheap action hero protagonist v evil. Been there dunndatt.

Nathan Creek that's who I thought too! (HBC)
Then I thought it could potentially be Angelica Houston or Glenn Close(?)
Everyone is getting their own reboot. The Creature From The Black Lagoon, The Invisible Man, Dracula, Frankenstein, Van Helsing, The Wolf Man, Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde, The Bride Of Frankenstein, and The Mummy. I can't wait for the new Universal Monsters Cinematic Universe.
is it a series or a movie?!
jeff okello It's Universal's cinematic universe of their classic monsters, like the Mummy, the Wolfman, Dracula, etc.
Jhett Greene oh right... thanks
I think it's going to be a series of movies .
This cast isn't exactly gonna be on a tv show ...
"Monsters? I must be there!" haha
ONE WHOLE WOMAN ON THE TEAM! Good for them. We wouldn't want this to be the Ship of the Valkyries. Perish the thought.
Luke Evans as Dracula again !!!..
C'mon Universal Studios, you can do it!!!
My pick for Bride of Frankenstein would be Anne Hathaway. Notwithstanding her current economic value to the movie business, I think she'd be a great pick in terms of acting skills for that role.
I really hope Johnny Depp isn't the Invisible Man. Griffin is supposed to be terrifying, arrogant, and furious (not to mention insane). I can't imagine Depp doing anything other than making him awkwardly goofy and being 'angry' with wooden shouting.
Can't wait for the announcement of who will play Wolfman & Dracula.
If anything is going to bring down Rowling's universe, it's going to be making Cursed Child canon.
I actually really enjoyed League of Extraordinary Gentlemen :o
In Syfy's defense..you should watch more Syfy shows. The Expanse is fantastic.
Sofia Boutella was a major part of Star Trek: Beyond. You know, the alien with the beats and shouting.
if mummy failed it's all over lol
Yep.
Hopefully it's successful and Universal can build attractions of these in their parks ;)
Can you do a casting video for bride of Frankenstein! I love seeing who you would cast!
Angelina Jolie seems perfect after seeing her in Maleficent. I'd actually prefer if they kept Luke Evans as Dracula as well
Loved League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, and Penny Dreadful. This line up is missing Dracula, and I think they need to tie into either of the vamires in Dracula untold, or both.
Angelina Jolie for the Bride of Frankenstein
that would be great, they 100% need an A list actress to go with the A list actors
Corey Williams My thoughts exactly
DisneyFan Yes! I'd love to see her working again
There was a rumor that Universal was courting Angelina Jolie, for the role of the Bride of Frankenstein. Though, it is very possible she did not want it. The studio would have waited to release that cast photo, if she was in the process of signing a contract.
lou mertens Those actresses are too young to play a love interest for Javier Bardem. Whereas Angelina Jolie has a striking, unearthly look with a powerful on-screen presence.

PENNY DREADFUL is/was amazing!!! And I guarantee you: the films in DArk Universe won't be as nuisance, emotional, suspenseful and completely full of characters fully realized as they were throughout 3 seasons of the amazing PENNY DREADFUL.
Danny Elfman: "...Monsters???.." lol!
I feel Universal is getting ahead of themselves. If the Mummy doesn't do good then they have to try to convince everyone that the other movies won't be bad either. Than again we won't know till the Mummy comes out.
The Very Hungry Caterpie The Mummy will probably be fine
Jessica Chastain for The Bride of Frankenstein!
They better keep Luke Evan's Dracula.
Javier bardem would have made a fantastic Dracula I feel he's being wasted as Frankenstein would have been so much better as Dracula.
David Mathews An actual Romanian actor would've been ideal. Then again, I reckon Universal needs to have someone famous in their movies
It depends on which version of the Creature they want to use. I agree he's a waste if they're going with the "dumb brute" version that Karloff made famous. If they're going with the (very) intelligent, articulate Creature from the novel, then I can see Bardem knocking it out of the park.
Why does this look more like an American TV drama than characters that are part of a cinematic universe
That One RUclips Comment I was half expecting to see the Netflix logo at the bottom of the shot of the cast
Can you imagine if they put all of The Avengers in a suit?
Cannot lie, the 2003 League of Extraordinary Gentlemen movie is a guilty pleasure for me.
Hi Grace,I would like to know what are your thoughts on Zack Synder stepping down from Justice League due to a family tragedy and Joss Whedon stepping in to finish the production and etc of the film?
we need marvel horror now: frank(enstein monster), the living mummy, werewolf by night, blade, dracula, swamp thing
this all feels so rushed I'm worried they are getting ahead of themselves lol
Sure their pulling a DCEU (they even have their own Green Lantern esq false start) but the difference here is that Universal have had time to think this all up as opposed to DC who just said "oh let's make man of Steele the start of a cinematic universe quickly lets cast batman"
Mr Critical It's rather difficult to take a critical comment seriously when the critic can't spell something as simple as 'Steel' correctly.
Grace, where's my "Sooooouh..." at the beginning of the video? My day is just not the same without it
so is tom cruise playing an Alan quartermain type character or is he actually the mummy of the franchise? someone answer me if they have watched the movie and understand the ending better than i do because i'm confused as to what exactly his role is now due to the twist ending
I can't wait to find out who Bride is, but I agree, the should have waited for that announcement before this official Dark Universe reveal and the cast photo. That would have really propelled this story into the spotlight.
I really liked Luke Evans and Dracula Untold.
I want Luke Evans back as Dracula in the Dark Universe
Hello Grace, Usually When I watch your channel I tend to agree on many things that you point out, however I think Universal/Dark Universe is going to be Absolutely Amazing!!
I either want Eva Green ,Aubrey Plaza,or Alexandra Daddario to be cast as The Bride of Frankenstein.
I am still hoping for a Dracula Untold 2 !!!
shouldn't frankenstein's moster come before the bride of frankenstein?
Hope Mummy is good / we'll go from there
Frankenstein's Monster's name is Adam
At first it thought you were talking about the Justice League Dark movie and I got sooo excited when I saw Sofia Boutella because I want her to play Zatanna soo badly
DRACULA: Lee Pace
CREATURE: Dug Jones
BRIDE: Angelina Jolie
WOLF MAN: no idea
PHANTOM OF THE OPERA: Bill Skarsgard
I wish this had a more Classic horror vibe but I'm still intrigued. I hope the Bride casting isn't disappointing.
Alan Quartermaine is public domain. Maybe Tom Cruise didn't want to play that character for some reason? Maybe Universal is worried about the League of Extroardinary Gentlemen movie's stink? Maybe they have another plan we don't know about for that character? Maybe nobody at Universal was smart enough to think of it, and they should hire you as a consultant?
If your gonna have a team of monsters, you HAVE to have Dracula in there!
Creature from the black lagoon in there as well for a bit of monster variety.
I'm willing to bet that Tom Cruise's character, Nick Morton, is supposed to be the actual 'Mummy', and Sofia Boutella's character is a red herring. Or, he's supposed to be a descendant of Van Helsing, considering he's casted in the Van Helsing movie as well.
It is probably a combination of both, and Nick Morton is the reincarnation/descendent of the Mummy's lost lover and Van Helsing. In the 1932 film, the mummy tried to kill and mummify a woman, because she looked like the princess he loved.
imagine if bride of frankestein was kate blanchett
Marcos Rivera good choice!!
After seeing her as Hela, I agree.
That could totally work.
Marcos Rivera I think Helena Bonham Carter would be a better choice.
What about Eva Green?
Angelina Jolie I hear
could it be that Cruise's character name it's an allias and maybe, just maybe he may be a Hellsing or another character?
I was sure this is Justice League Dark. I mean, the cast does make sense...
just waiting for Dracula announcement -_-
Dang it Grace ! I have work tomorrow why do you make me lose sleep !
I wonder if there would be crossovers like in the MCU. Could Russell Crowe's Dr. Jekyll appear in multiple movies? If they were to do something like that where they reference the other movies, I think THEN I would enjoy this.
Wait, I'm confused. They're releasing 'Bride of Frankenstein' before 'Frankenstein'?
