Underworld 3: Rise Of The Lycans
 
Official Site
IMDB Site

So whaddaya think? Is the series worth a third go? I liked the first two, and heard that it was going to be a trilogy... but at the same time didn't look into it. Now that I know that there's a third one, and the title is "Rise Of The Lycans," and almost all of the characters from the first two movies are dead, it asks the question: what's gonna happen in this one?

It feels like a prequel to me, not a sequel, so the first characters probably aren't born.

Edit: Yup. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0834001/faq#.2.1.2

Honestly I was pretty disappointed with the second one and I have never been a big fan of prequel movies(Can't think of a good one). I'll pass on the theater and if I hear good things I can Redbox it.

On the one hand these have been decent enough movies by the standard of 'worth watching when it comes out on HBO'.

On the other hand 1. Kate Beckingsdale was like 80% of the reason for that and she's not in it, and 2. I don't know that there's enough mystery in the backstory to make me care about a prequel, especially considering that the big reveals in the second movie were all to the effect that the first movie's backstory was pretty much built on a foundation of bullshit from the get-go.

I have to wonder how many times they're going to make Underworld sequels before White Wolf just up and does it right.

We're talking about 'right' in the sense of World of Darkness, mind you, but still.

It's the other movies with vampires around, so if you need a male version of Twilight you might want to check it out...

I was left with a taste of "meh" in my mouth after the first one, and the second one was just dreadfull (like... "Resident Evil 3: Oh Noes Zeh Tombies!" dreadfull) so i have barely no faith in this pushover of a prequel...

However, i havent barely even checked the trailer for this one, so, im biased as all hell. Still... this is what i see for this movie "Twilight for men"

y'know ... if WW makes a Mage the Ascension world, it would be a 2 hour jerk-off fest of mages going "I deny your reality and embrace my own". It will be kinda like Jumper, but with more witchcraft... you know that, right?

I'd love to see someone bust that line out in like, a light romantic comedy.

...Come to think of it, Vince Vaughn could totally make it work.

I'm pretty sure that Twilight for Men would actually just be three hours of lesbian, vampire porn.

You're forgetting Let the Right One In.
