Frankenstein (1931) & Bride of Frankenstein (1935)
Great movies, but these movies have been praised so often, I might as well say something negative about them.
* Frankenstein has to have one of the most random, nonsensical endings to any movie I've ever seen.
* When the Monster tosses Frankenstein off the windmill, it magically starts spinning in the opposite direction
* In Bride of Frankenstein, two guys that run into the Monster say "It's the monster! Dr. Frankenstein created him with the parts of corpses, he did" (or something to that effect). The question I have is, how did they know? Isn't that why Frankenstein was helping Dr Pratorious, to keep that all hush hush.
* You'd think either Carl laemmle or James Whale would've remembered that they had casted a blonde for Frankenstein's bride to be. I can understand not being able to get the same actress for Bride of Frankenstein, but at least cast someone with the same hair color.
