Coppola's "Dracula" or Branagh's "Frankenstein"?

[DerekG]

They're certainly the most ostentatious adaptations from the past two decades, and everyone I've talked to has a preference...so which one?

I dig Branagh's. It's every bit as melodramatic as Dracula, but the performances are stronger and the narrative far more focused.

1. Dracula even with the spectacularly awful Keanu Reeves.

4. I was waiting for him to say " Dracula? You know, this has been a most excellent adventure"!

5. a card board cut out would emote more. Whooaaaaa.

6. Yeah...Keanu was pretty awful in that

but I really have to give kudos to Anthony Hopkins as Van Helsing, and...yes, kudos to Gary Oldman in the title role. He rarely disappoints, Oldman...and he pretty much nailed that role

7. i love Gary Oldman, without him i don't think i would liked the movie nearly as much.

2. Never a big fan of Frankenstein, had to go with Dracula

and I liked Anthony Hopkins as Van Helsing ( that is just how I would picture Van Helsing )

3. Dracula, without a doubt n/t
