To my understanding they all were universal films right?

Yea but from what I've read this new universe thing may begin with either Dracula Untold or The Mummy reboot.

This Dracula is the first of their reboot. It actually wasn't even meant to be the first. The future Mummy movie was, but at some point they decided this movie was a good place to start the shared universe's canon.

Good movie 8/10

imo dracula doesn't need a sequel. I would not pay to see that shit

Well, they've already pretty much set the stage for a sequel. More than anything they want to set the stage for their combined universe. The funny thing is that people keep saying they are copying Marvel. Those people are forgetting Universal basically started that shit. House of Frankenstein was made back in 1944 and it had Dracula, Frankenstein's Monster, the Wolfman, the Hunchback, and a mad scientist. After that they had movies like House of Dracula, Dracular vs Frankenstein, and a few others that all featured multiple monsters. If they make a combined universe, they really are just taking it back to what they did in the past.

 

[OmegaConflict]

O ok

 

[Recaptimus_Prime360]

Just seen it. It was good. Definitely lookin foward to the sequel. But lookin at y'all posts, are you sayin they're gonna do a Marvel type route?

Yeah, somewhat. They are going to have a shared universe between all the movie monsters. The idea really came up after this movie was put into production, so they were planning on starting it with the upcoming Mummy movie they are working on. However, the decided to change that and now this movie is the official birth of the Monsterverse. I wouldn't say they are going the Marvel route though. I doubt they plan on having as much connectivity as Marvel has. They are more or less probably just leaving doors open for crossover movies like they had in the past.

I enjoyed the previous Mummy movies. I'd rather they'd do continuations instead of all these reboots. Give the shit some real history that spans generations. Regardless of how bad the movie was before, just wrap up the loose ends and do a better job with the next one.

Unless the previous script was just utterly horrible and too much a mess to build from.

 

[lord nemesis]

Seeing a new Wolfman, Creature and Frankenstein would be dope. Those characters need a good revitalization

 

[VulcanRaven]

They should throw Simon Belmont in that monster movie and have him fighting Dracula.

 

[Vader_F_Kennedy]

I would a have liked to see another van helsing with Hugh jackman

 

[The Lonious Monk]

They should throw Simon Belmont in that monster movie and have him fighting Dracula.

A Castlevania movie would have been doped. The Lords of Shadow may have made for a decent trio of movies.

 

[soul rattler]

I saw it last night.

Pro's:

The visual effects

Luke Evans as a lead actor

The execution of a story based on real historical events

Con's:

Forgettable acting from everyone not named Luke Evans or Ronan Vilbert

Particularly bad acting from the most generic villian in Bradley Cooper

Lifeless script. I could have watched it on mute and not missed a beat

The reviews I've read have trashed the movie because they want Dracula movies to be violent bloodbaths with no compassion. But it's called "Dracula Untold", not "Dracula We Already Knew". Yes, we all are aware of the fact that Dracula is the king of vampires, but this is an origins story so go in without any assumptions and you'll enjoy it.

The only other thing I'm concerned about is the humongous time leap. It was random as he'll. But we'll have to see what Universal has in store with future movies.
