Manhunter was on the telly the other night and I hadnt seen it in ages. Good show. So who do you think was the better Hannibal the Cannibal? Hopkins does have much more screen time as him as he has 2 other movies to back him while in Manhunter I didn't feel Lector was in it quite as much. You would nearly forget he was a character in the movie. Hopkins does play more like a showman villian which is quite memorable while Cox was very matter of fact. Have to say, I did enjoy Manhunter's 80's synth soundtrack.

Been a long time since I saw Manhunter, and I can't say Brian Cox made much of an impression.
I've never actually watched the show "Hannibal" but I heard great things about Mads Mikkelsen as Hannibal Lector.

I'll take the secret third option for Mads Mikkelsen. One of my favorite characters ever and my favorite show ever.

Hopkins, but only in his first film. Once Lecter escaped at the end,the character lost all meaning.

1. Hopkins 2. Mikkelsen 3. Cox I've never actually watched the show "Hannibal" but I heard great things about Mads Mikkelsen as Hannibal Lector. it is really good, but it is f***ing dark and disturbing. in one of the first episodes, they go after a guy who is kidnapping diabetics and burying them alive to use a fertilizer to grow mushrooms

Love "Manhunter"... but Hopkins made that character really feel menacing.

Manhunter is a good movie, but Brian Cox's Hannibal Lector is totally forgettable.

I believe you’ll find Brian Cox played Hannibal Lecktor, so he shouldn’t be an option!
I love both Manhunter and Silence of the Lambs and might argue that the former is my personal preference but in terms of the performances, whilst Cox does a fine job, Hopkins is just so damn iconic in the role.

Mads Mikkelsen had the advantage of it being a TV show, but 100% the most fully realized version of the character.
Hey, what about Gaspard Ulliel?
