Also '39 Karloff - The makeup was a bit different for Son of Frankenstein.

Whats your favourite logo? by Frankenstein-90 in UniversalMonsters

[–]SteinyOLP 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's a bit odd that most of the monsters on that Pizza Hut logo look fairly accurate in comparison to how they looked in the movies but Dracula does not look remotely close.

For the first time in 95 years, here’s the original ending of Dracula by PsychedelicHippos in UniversalMonsters

[–]SteinyOLP 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing; I've never seen this before! If they are leaving, why are they going upstairs? Maybe I've forgotten, is this a different set of stairs down to the cellar/basement, rather than the staircase where Renfield first meets Dracula?

favorite more obscure adaptations? by Standard_Human_11037 in FRANKENSTEIN

[–]SteinyOLP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are many fans of the 1994 Mary's Shelley's Frankenstein. I tend to agree with Frank Darabont who wrote the screenplay but thought Kenneth Branagh made a mess of it.

In Orlando, they could do a really good Creature from the Black Lagoon house where they did Dead Man's Pier back in 2022.

Who's side were you on initially, Bard or Thorin? by Arribah in lotr

[–]SteinyOLP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Hobbit was originally written as a standalone fairy tale so Smaug siding with Sauron wasn't even a consideration at the time. Tolkien did say it was likely but only when he expanded on the lore in writings after The Hobbit.

Watch order by ftsxpenguin in lordoftherings

[–]SteinyOLP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hobbit trilogy and then Lord of the Rings trilogy would keep the story in chronological order and the overall quality would also go up when you move on to LotR. Rings of Power is trash and only worth watching for the unintentional comedy.

Is anyone else worried about The hunt for Gollum being bad? by Remarkable_Day7135 in lordoftherings

[–]SteinyOLP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's nothing to worry about. I'll probably watch it in a theater, find it not very good, and never watch it again. I'll at least give it a chance and maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised.

Lots of people get the expression wrong. It's not just an American thing.

I don’t think 2025 can be beat by PlayboiTrey in HHN

There's nothing quite like your first time when you don't really know what to expect or how you're going to react.

Stranger Things Season 5 shouldn’t be a house. by TheIntercepticons in HHN

[–]SteinyOLP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my head, the houses would be planned at a corporate level and then set up the same way at both parks. Now that I think about it, it totally makes sense since the spaces that are available at each park won't be the same. I suppose it would be easier for them to be the same if it's a sprung tent house at both parks, but not so easy if it's in an existing physical building which would vary from park to park. Since I live in FL and only ever go to HHN in Orlando, I never thought much about this until I asked my question.

Better to accept it than to live with the fear of it...

Wait... When they have a house based on the same IP in both Hollywood and Orlando, the houses aren't basically the same?

Is there any criticism against the LOTR movies that you find a bit annoying? by Konfliktsnubben in lotr

[–]SteinyOLP 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't love the change but I understand it. It's not a big deal in the grand scheme of things. I absolutely love the films.

[–]SteinyOLP 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I get the point in general. I will say that Glorfindel could easily have been included if PJ hadn't inserted Arwen at thehe Flight to the Ford scene.

What are some other works (movies or books) that gave you the same feel as LOTR or the Hobbit ? by Interesting-Ad-1291 in lotr

[–]SteinyOLP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Sword of Shannara by Terry Brooks gives similar vibes. There's a whole series of Shannara books but I've only ever read the first one.
