Frankenstein CGI

[FrankenFan]

Ran across this again this morning, and thought I'd post it for those who may never have seen it.

It's test footage of ILM's CGI Frankenstein monster for Universal's aborted Frankenstein vs. the Wolf Man film. We got Van Helsing, instead.

You can read more about it at Frankensteinia, and AICN has a couple of articles with pics of the Wolf Man design, here and here.

THIS SUCKS!!!!!!!! I WOULD HAVE LOVED TO HAVE SEEN THIS MOVIE!!!!!!!!

 

[King Darkness]

Stupid ass Universal!!!!!

Cant believe they gave up on that for Crap Helsing

Is there any plans to go back to this?

 

[lcummins]

Looks pretty good... still rough, but pretty good for the stage it was at...

 

[The Monster]

Stupid ass Universal!!!!!

For giving up on this movie, YES THEY WERE!!!!!!!!

 

[Batty]

It's another example of how short-sighted big studios can be. I would've loved to have seen a full length movie like that.

 

[The Monster]

Do not get me wrong Van Helsing was good, However, This would have been WAAAAAAY better!

 

[The Monster]

Is there any plans to go back to this?

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD I HOPE SO!!!!!!!!

 

[EVILFACE]

Would have been kewl.

 

[ScaryCreature]

That looks awesome! I had high expectations for Van Helsing and was SERIOUSLY disappointed! This would have been much, much better!!!

 

[GrueSam]

Holy Cow!

Oh! I wants to see that one - I wants to see that one - I wants to see that one!
Not sucky Helsing...

 

[Batty]

And imagine if Sideshow had the license to that instead of Van Helsing.

in my own little world many would probably disagree with I dream to see a movie made in this style that works Hellboy into the picture. One that has much more contrast as in mignola's style ... since Universal owns both properties and theyve actually mentioned the possibilty of crossing HB over the the UniMonsters....

 

[Rogue Trooper]

Really did'nt expect to see something that cool and we got Van Helsing, at least were getting a Wolfman remake.

 

[Ra88]

Hrrmn. Not really that impressed with it, but then again, I'm not a fan of that style...Could have been a great movie though...Shame.

 

[CelticPredator]

Eh....I wouldnt see the movie...and atleast Van Helsing produced a fantastic score.

 

[Kabukiman]

Looks interesting, but let's face it, if they released that instead of VanHelsing, I'd bet dollars to donuts that we'd all be ^^^^^ing that we didn't get VanHelsing (based on concept/teaser).

 

[D'oh!]

Looks like a lot of fun, but I wonder why they redesigned the Wolf Man? I love the Chaney makeup.
