(Anonymous) 2013-04-18 01:37 am (UTC)(link)Mikkelsen's Lecter is very different from Hopkins'. Nobody was going to touch Hopkins' in SotL. It was impossible, like trying to capture a perfect moment.
That being said, I like Mikkelsen's more subtle portrayal. He's not nearly as charming as Hopkins, but I'd rather have the gentility than the manic and ham that followed in some of the later movies.
Also, my own head!canon is that he does let loose a tiny bit more on occasion once he's found out. And that he'll probably become more charming and mischievous over time as he gets more comfortable around the rest of the main characters.
But if you don't like it, then you don't like it! Some things are felt at a gut level.
I reread Red Dragon and SotL right before watching the first episode, and I was AMAZED at how much dialogue was drawn from those two books. Good choice too, as it was largely character and relationship-defining stuff. I fell like there's a great love for canon in this show.
I hope you give it a second chance? I hope there's more people in this fandom than the newcomers. I want people who care about the Harris books!
