Re: I, Frankenstein..... what?

Hey, I just remembered a detail from the movie that I'm sure you science nerds will LOVE.

The finale is predicated on the impending reanimation of this Frankenstein's Monster Army. The demons need bodies to possess so that they can return to Earth, but those bodies are useless if they aren't alive (?) so they need a body that's alive but that doesn't have a soul (???). So there's a ticking clock element introduced when the villain starts the reanimation process, and we see an LED screen on each of the machines that reads "0% REANIMATED."

And it starts going up. "1% REANIMATED. 2% REANIMATED."

Meanwhile your brain is doing the same thing, in reverse.

not long to go now...

Hey, correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure that being alive or dead isn't a FUCKING SPECTRUM. Like, either you're alive or you aren't. What does it mean to be 45% reanimated? Especially considering that none of them wake up and start moving until the thing reaches 100%.

I can't believe I sat through this whole movie sober and didn't kill myself.

Okay, Star Trek people, what on earth is the context of that gif.

Is this any different from Hansel & Gretel?

Yes. The difference is Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters is in on the joke (hence the title) and winking at the audience, whereas I, Frankenstein takes itself way too seriously and that's absolutely the wrong approach with material like this. We're supposed to be having FUN, dammit! smile
