Guillermo del Toro

I didn't realize that <a href=http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0868219/>GdT</a> had directed Hellboy, and I defintely didn't know there was going to be a <a href=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0411477/>sequel</a>.

Maybe I need to only see GdT movies that are in Spanish.

Anyone up for <a href=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0457430/>Pan's Labrynth</a> on Saturday?

Funny, when I saw that Pan's Labrynth was a GdT film, I thought "virtue might like this since s/he was into Hellboy".

Wait -- INTO Hellboy?

I would be into it, but because of Chronos and Devil's Backbone.

I don't think there's enough dope in all of amsterdam to make hellboy tolerable.

Film of the year. Hands down. 'Departed' now vying for 2nd.

2 regrets:
1) Sound track was distracting. There were times that all I wanted was silence.
2) I wish my Spanish was better.

So, I've recently had several conversations with people who all actually liked Hellboy. Kinda wierd.

I'll admit it. I liked <i>Hellboy</i>.

Bring It On.

You liked "Bring It On"?

Hellboy is a totally decent comic book film.

Dude, I loved that movie. Why didn't that kid go to my high school?

Maybe - was that the cheerleader one with Jessica Alba? I think that was alright as long as the TV's "Mute" button is held down...

It featured a 17-year-old Clash fan with messy hair who's nice to his sister and makes mix tapes. What's not to like?
