Alright lets decide it Hopkins or Mads?

I cant choose, I like them both

>>80185896
didnt weatch mikkelsen's show but I prefer his cast type but hopkins sure was great

>>80185896
Mads.

http://www.strawpoll.me/12486291

Hopkins.

I have a huge boner for Mads anyway

Hopkins as Hannibal was a bit more unpredictable and animalistic.

Mads played him as the kind of person you'd befriend at work, he'd politely talk to you for 10 years and then one day you'd wake up and he'd be serving you your own leg and you'd even try it out.

>>80186139

Gideon pls go

Hopkins

>>80185896
Mads of course. He is exactly how psychopaths act. Hopkins was too Hollywood over the top

>>80185896
Mads

Hopkins was good, but his Hannibal was a different character. He seemed like he was always on edge and could do anything at any moment. Why? Who knows. He's crazy.

Mads' Hannibal was better because he seemed totally sane. Nothing he did was truly unreasonable. He just ate people he didn't like and he made it seem like that was his prerogative due to his superiority.

>>80185896
Kill yourself consensus faggot

Hopkins. Guy was a complete psychopath. Mads seemed kind of gay but was a great cook.

What was it with the 90s and actors' portrayal of their characters as over-the-top?

>>80186223
what do you know about it anon?

>>80185896
Clearly Hopkins.

Mads's version was more cartoony, other guy's way more realistic

>>80185896

Not even a choice, mads was fanfiction, Hopkins was the guy made it famous

Hopkin's portrayal is too over the top. Way too theatrical for a film. Would fit better on a stage.

When you have Mads snapping necks like he's an anime character, it becomes hard to not laugh

/tv/ is so gay for Mads it's disturbing

mads' voice was nothing like i imagined

>>80185896
I like both, Hopkins made the character iconic. I love him in tsotl and Hannibal. Mads give the character more complexity due the time on screen in tv series. Both are excellent.

Just kidding, it's Mads. Manhunter is unambiguously the best Hannibal adaptation though.

>>80185896
You can't compare them when one is known to be a serial killer for the majority of his performance and the other has his mask on for society.

Mads wins though. Of course, he had the advantage of having three seasons.

>>80185896
Hopkins, but Mads does an INCREDIBLE job. Absolutely stunning. His best work, and probably one of the best acting jobs in recent memory.
But seriously? Hopkins WAS Hannibal. He didn't play Hannibal, he WAS Hannibal.

mads if you like homolust
hopkins if you like DUDE I'M A PSYCHO LOL

>>80186139
Lmao Mads was way more unpredictable.

You cant compare the two, one was Hannibal hiding his psychopathy and the other was Hannibal going balls to the wall because he was already caught.

Mads had to be nuanced and light with his insanity, he was hiding in plain sight.

Hopkins could be as crazy and creepy as possible, he was caged and everyone knew the monster.

That being said I really enjoy the show more than the movies.

>>80185896
The perfect incarnation of Hannibal Lecter captured on camera is in Silence of the lambs, it got it. Subsequent films, not so much. I like Mads too, but I feel he was dragged down maybe by the style-over-substance nature of the show, even though it had its moments.

I was going to write a lengthy rant about plebbitry in general, but there's no point to it. 16 year olds such as yourselves have not actually met enough people IRL to make such distinctions as the OP requested. So please, just go...

>>80185896

Both perfectly portrayed their respective side of Hannibal.

Mads is goat at portraying Hannibal before he was caught and being full lmaoing@urlife to everyone who knows him.

Hopkins was goat at portraying Hannibal after confinement, when he has nothing to hide, yet still fools everyone.

Fan of the movies, books and the TV show.

Hopkins is undeniably the superior Hannibal, but Mads played the character differently enough to do it justice in his own right.

If you are a male, this movie should really unsettle you. I'd recommend just jumping in instead of watching a trailer, but the core of the movie is Mads is a school teacher in his rural Danish hometown and gets falsely accused of molesting children .

The movie does a fantastic job of getting you to identify with the protagonist, so when things spiral out of control with him you really feel it.

>>80192101
I'll probably check it out, thanks

>>80185896
They are slightly different characters.

Hopkins Hannibal has been caught and incarcerated for years and years.

Mad's Hannibal is living the life. He has a successful practice, has dinner parties, attends high society functions, drives a Bentley, and kills and eats the first person that's rude to him.

Each has to be approached in a different way.

>>80192263
too many high ranking pedos?

mads played hannibal as the devil. hopkins was the true hannibal that was iconic at the time and set the precedent for everything.

>>80192310
Possible.

I was more thinking about the witch hunt mentality of some regions of the country aswell as a lot of people's lack of respect for innocent-until-proven-guilty. A lot of people genuinely think that an accusation should be enough to convict a person for rape or like in the film; molesting a minor. But then again, that's not really exclusive to the US at all. I guess the point is that it's aimed more at a european audience.

>>80185896
Both are meme actors.

>>80192367
You're a fucking faggot anon.

>>80192404
so is mads

Mads isn't really very attractive and yet I am attracted to him

>>80192404
Alright you have a point. Hopkins used to be good, but Mad Mike is just Le Creepy Man from Casino Royal in every movie.

>>80192510
you should probably watch more movies anon

>>80186942
This is actually the right answer because he's acting like a person, albeit crazy. Hopkins is just hacky and campy, but it works too.

I like them equally for different reasons. Hopkins felt more like well read, literary Hannibal, whereas Mads' Hannibal felt much more artistic.

>>80186139
To be fair, Hopkins played Lecter mostly when he was already caught so there no purpose to keep up the charade, while Mads' Lecter is still very much concealing himself from everyone for the better part of two seasons.

>>80190484
No, I'm saying it because Mann is beyond reproach and SOTL is mid-tier Demme at best.

Cox > Sotl Hopkins > Mads > Hopkins in the rest

>>80185896
Mads was more infectious, manipulative, more of a psychopath. He also showed that Hannibal does miss something or someone...he feels more of a human than some generic serial killer like Hopkins did it.
Hopkins was not bad at all at first, but Silence of the Lambs got old a bit too quickly. Ridley Scott's "Hannibal" was a bit more nuanced and closer to Mads though.

Hopkins. Mads Hannibal takes fart sniffing to levels that shouldn't be possible. Hopkins was truly terrifying in the psychological thriller sense.
