I like Marshall but fuck that shit. Make a Hellboy movie with the team that made them great.

Thing is, they weren't THAT great.Quoting Grouchy (view post)
Speaking for myself, whenever one of them is on TV, I stay in that channel no matter how many times I've seen them.Quoting Dukefrukem (view post)
I never see them on TV.
This is likely Mike Mignola's doing, to be honest. I didn't get the sense that he was ever all that thrilled with the GDT movies (which is probably understandable, given how radically different they are in tone to his comics):
For years, anytime Mignola's asked about the third movie, he always expressed skepticism that GDT would be able to get it made. I wonder how long this reboot has actually been in the works. I assume that a few months ago when GDT said that Hellboy 3 is "100%" not happening, it was because he sat down with Universal and Mignola and that's when they told him that they've been seeing other people.

It probably didn't hurt that The R-Ratings of Logan and Deadpool are the result of giving the fans a true adaptation that fits with the source material.
I wouldve enjoyed a trilogy closer, but I'll take more Hellboy any way I can get it.
They're on all the time in Argentina. Maybe they just did better over here comparatively. I remember a lot of outrage when the first one came out in theaters because there were no subtitled versions available.Quoting Dukefrukem (view post)
I'm curious to know what Mignola disliked about the sequel. There was a lot of unexpected humor but there's humor in some of his comics too.
I'm gonna guess the whole romance between Hellboy and Liz, and generally making Hellboy a more lovable/romantic/optimistic character who is now a husband and dad.
The films and the comics are just very different in tone to me. The Hellboy movies are pretty recognizably Guillermo del Toro projects: gothic fantasy concepts, whimsical humor, and a really heavy dose of sentimentality. They're great that way, but they're definitely not the kind of dark, folklore-horror that the comics are.
Movie Theater DiaryQuoting Donald Glover
Don't think I even saw the second one. And I can't really even recall a scene in the first.
As expected. Andrew Cosby, who co-wrote the new script with Mignola and Christopher Golden:

GDT and Mignola always seemed pretty tight so this is weird to read about.

Milla Jovovich will be the villain. It is uncertain whether this means she can't do Resident Evil 21: The final ride.

Ed Skrein departs the project because of controversy and complaints of yet more whitewashing.

Came to post that too. Wow.
Here's another.
Movie Theater DiaryQuoting Donald Glover
Not for nothing, but how the hell did he get that jacked that quick? Or was he just hiding it in Stranger Things? Damn.
He definitely wasn't Clark Kenting it in Stranger Things. Dude had a decent beer gut. Probably suit help and also exercise regimen.
Looks great tho. I dig it.

Me too. I didn't think they could get any closer on the face to the comic than Perlman (without looking goofy), but I think they did it.
Stranger Things was a year ago, guys. Hollywood trainers usually have about 3 months to get actors jacked, and it's been 4 since Harbour's casting was announced.
Chris Pratt went from Andy Dwyer to Star-Lord in the same amount of time.
EDIT: But also, lighting and make up can exaggerate the definition.
Movie Theater DiaryQuoting Donald Glover
I know, but...damn. Pratt got cut, but Harbour got huge. Kudos to him and his trainers.
Those are like Arnold Predator guns.
I'm guessing it's a body suit.
That's what Perlman did too. Looked great.

Really? I didn't know that.
