Well, guess I'm one of the few who think this looks pretty good, it's the only one of today's releases I'll spring for, although it'll take a week or two to put the cash aside. The usual hatred is expected  but, damn guys, they have to sell some albums.
Luckily, I do not think you are one of the few. I too am looking forward to this. I just don't bother to waste time responding to the tiresome poster here (just waiting for his twin to post he is not buying it as as well). I do not think the relative handful of strident not-buyers are ultimately representive of much at all. As SchiffyM has pointed out, the fact that the one-note wonders have the right to post does not grant them the right to be taken seriously.

I too think it looks good and will be picking it up. The grumpy old guys can wallow in their misery for all I care. Keep the great releases coming Varese!
" ..... grumpy old guys ......."
Does Varese give a senior citizen discount?
Yea, but not if they're whiners. Looks like you're SOL!
I'll try to be a nicer person!  ...... well, until the next Varese Club releases!

How could I not share this quote from the new issue (#81) of FILMS OF THE GOLDEN AGE magazine, by Greg Mank & Tom Weaver, closing out their article, "Evolution of a Horror Star: The Lon Chaney Jr. Timeline," to wit:
NOVEMBER 2011: Ron Meyer, longtime head of Universal, appears at the Savannah (Georgia) Film Festival and admits, "We make a lot of shitty movies. Every one of them breaks my heart . . . One of the worst movies we ever made was WOLFMAN. WOLFMAN and BABE 2 are two of the shittiest movies we put out." A 2014 Los Angeles Times article lists the 2010 THE WOLFMAN among the most expensive flops of all time.

I never saw the new WOLFMAN, (you can tell it's the reboot because there's no space between WOLF and MAN, though I hoped the context would also make that clear,) so I have no opinion of my own to express. If indeed anyone has a higher opinion of the film than this Universal kingpin, possibly that's because studio execs sometimes equate box-office with quality, or lack of same. Mind, I say, "Possibly." It's also possible that this guy thinks WOLFMAN was, as he said, a movie de merde.
