Oh god....What...what have they done?!!?
It looks like a shitty "comedy" aimed at 12 year olds. FUCK!
Knowing the books and how they are a nice read, looking at how this has a dumb humor to it and the actors don't fit their characters, show me this is going to be crap.
The only good point I can think of is Willem Dafoe, shame he's getting a bit character that was no doubt raped beyond recognition.

Speaking of Willem Dafoe getting raped beyond recognition, anyone see Antichrist?
I'm most likely wrong here since it's been ages since I read the books, but I thought Mr. Tiny was black?

Nah, he's white.
[QUOTE=Drasnus;17743532]Nah, he's white.[/QUOTE]
Oh, I liked it better imagining he was black. Oh well I still think the movie is going to be a crock of shit.
Oh sweet JESUS
I refused to watch the trailer for fear of how bad it was.
Watched it, got about 40 seconds in.
Said
OH FUCK
Stopped watching
I didn't even need to watch the trailer, I just had to struggle to hear it over Counter Strike to know it'll probably suck. The moment I heard John C. Reilly I couldn't take it seriously.
Well what another fuck up movie. These were great books when i was a kid. Cocksuckers.
Well, the story sounds pretty cool. I'll go get the [B]book[/B].

Oh, are they childrens' books?
I could swear these books were set in Ireland, where the Shanmeister is from.

Aimed at teenagers they're a good read.

What qualifies as a teenager?
Read the 12 books or so on this ages ago. I've also read most of the demonata series but probably in the wrong order. As i remember the book was good we'll have to wait to pass comment on the film.
[QUOTE=Galago;17744731]What qualifies as a teenager?[/QUOTE]
12-16 roughly I would guess for these books.
[QUOTE=Galago;17744731]What qualifies as a teenager?[/QUOTE]
Just read them, I've been keeping up with his other work and re-reading these books for years. I can still appreciate his writing.
Though I don't quite like the first one as much as the rest.
[QUOTE=Galago;17744731]What qualifies as a teenager?[/QUOTE]
13 to 19 years of age :rolleyes:
I personally saw Darren Shan being set in England.
Or at least where it started.

Yes, though the American localization changes the language to make it American.
And gave it a lamer title.

So true, imagine if they put the Harry Potter movies in Alabama....
It's got John C. Reilly so it is a must see.
Oh cool, I hope they make a game out of this movie, that would be so cool!
:smug:
I've read all 12 Saga of Darren Shan books and all 10 books of the Demonata series. This is a fucking joke.
Since when do vampires turn into blurry colors like the ink flood from the Page Master?
I will probably watch this, back to back with Twilight then probably shoot myself.
Remember how the books were dark, and serious horror-dramas?
Clearly they didn't.

[b]Yes.[/b]
Seriously, i have been waiting for this movie to come out ever since i added darren shan to my myspace. i thought it was going to have some potential. god. i cried
To be honest, I think I stopped reading the Darren Shan books after a while because he was literally churning them out at a ridiculous rate.
I remember reading the 5th and then there was like 6 more out and I said fuck it.
Darren Shan you fucked up everything :3
