Underworld 3: No Kate :-(

Meh without Kate I'm no longer really interested. Len Wiseman gone too, okay he's not a great director but at least he is a director. I always thought this was "his" trilogy. I guess not.

I like Underworld but Evolution was only just fairly good, easily forgettable.

They should get John McTiernan and Bruce Willis for this one, and call it "with a vengeance" :D

What was funny? :? It's very rare for "behind the scenes" crew to become decent directors. The ability to design decent creatures doesn't mean you can direct an entire feature.

Really? It didn't flow very well and was lacking on the Lycan vs. Vampire action.

Nope, I think it would be good to trade directors and stars, that would make some really interesting sequel.

How? Maybe you didn't understand what I meant. I hope I've explained it better for you.

Part 2 is as good as part 1, in fact its bloody superb action wise, brutal as hell. Maybe not the best 2 films ever made, but I flippin love them both.

Sucks about part 3 it has to be said, only reason they are doing it is becuase Len is too big for this shit now. I would rather have another Underworld film than another Die Hard film thats for sure.

I'd agree with that. Die Hard needs to finish and especially when they pick directors like Wiseman who certainly aren't a disaster but aren't great either.

Wiseman isnt the problem with Die Hard 4, its the story, plot, actors etc.. blaming the director is very wrong. If Fox had given him the goods up front to help him make a better film, it would be better. They shafted him many times, none more so than cutting the film at the last moment.

Agreed the script/plot were all wrong too.
