'The Message'
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
There are also child vampires in 30 Days of Night (minor role), Blade (minor role), Blade: The Series (most kickass scene-stealing villain in the whole show), and Forever Knight (ditto).
> Although I don't know how Studi would "reprise his role" from the original film, considering his character was killed in the raid on the Lakota.

I LOVED her. Seriously, I made squeaky noises of glee when she appeared on screen.
She also chuckled in a somewhat worrisome fashion.
Also in Ultraviolet. Which, not a movie, but the creepiest child vampire by far, imho.
Just watched the opening title sequence for Catch Me if You Can--
Definitely lives up to the hype-- it's as stylistically pretty as the opening credits for Down With Love.
And the music? Usually, I can spot a John Williams within eight measures (Not that this is bad-- I can do the same with Elfman), but he really stretched himself on this one and captured that minimalistic jazz noir feel.
John Williams was a jazz pianist before he started writing film scores.
Man, I have not seen any of those vampire works. I am vampire movie-deficient. Well, I've seen Blade, but I don't remember a kid vampire.
Oh, and you mean Ultraviolet the series! Which I will be watching soon enough. I'm glad it has a creepy child vampire.
John Williams was a jazz pianist before he started writing film scores.
Yeah, but I've not really known him to incorporate the background quite to this extent. It didn't have that blatant "I am a John Williams score" feel to it at all.
Did you ever hear the "1941" soundtrack? That one is a lot of fun.

Heh-- I played the march, in both symphonic and marching band. It is one of the best marches ever. And the overture to The Cowboys is also fabulous. (As a French horn player, I loved playing anything Williams—he's always good to the hornies)
ETA: after a lifetime of Sousa marches... god, I love Williams' marches.
