    The Shape of Water (Del Toro, 2017)...



    Looks immaculately designed, per usual (I feel like there's some Metropolis/Bioshock vibes to this underground lab thing). Hawkins is amazing, so I expect her to be great here. And that cast is wonderful too.

    Poor Doug Jones being so literally typecast by Del Toro he gets to strap on another fishman suit.

    That looks wonderful, but holy spoilerific trailer.

    I got to see this.

    Never saw the trailer. Glad I didn't.

    That was actually less spoilerific than the red-band trailer. It played before a movie last night and I just got concessions during it because I couldn't watch it.
