Hellboy

the comic's probably better

not that i've seen or read either, just sayin'

i have a tendency to be disappointed by comic-based movies, which is why i'm hesitant about seeing this one

I agree with you but I guess you can't be disapointed since you don't have anything to get your excpectations from (refering to the fact that you've not read the comic)

...I, for one, will see it sometimes ...hope it's good!
 
i saw a preview for it when i rented 'once upon a time in mexico' and it had 2 songs from the new dimmu album durring the preview. that was pretty cool.

I told Jammeh last night that Hellboy = ted danson. And I stick by that statement :Spin:
:err: :guh: I think you are smoking crack!;) Ron Pearlman is the best Hellboy ever! I did read the comic and I think they did a great job with the adaptation. Yeah, Derek, the comics are better, but there is no way to condense everything down into a 2 hour format. If you want to see what the movie is based on, get The Right Hand of Doom and Seeds of Destruction.

I highly recommend this movie and I usually don't like most comic remakes. (They are making a Hellblazer movie and have cast Keanu Reeves as John Constantine. I'm outraged. Meh.)

whaaaaa, keanu reeves?! ugh, i dunno about that.. i've just started reading bits of hellblazer recently, but i don't see keanu reeves fitting that role ..

I've been meaning to look into hellboy for a while, ever since i first started hearing rumors of the movie in the works, but haven't gotten around to it yet, i'm thinking i'll wait until after i see the movie, so i can't possibly make any comparisons ;P .

But it does look good though, and ron pearlman rocks, and i see plenty of tentacles in the previews.... all good signs!

and hey lil! whats been goin' on?

Yep, Hellboy is cthulhu-rific. I'm completely annoyed by the choice of Reeves for Constantine. He does well in films where his signature line is "whoa" but I don't think he has the depth for a character like Hellblazer. Ah well.

Hey D. I'm doing ok. I've just been working and drinking. I'm looking forward to the summer. I think I'm going to try to take a bunch of vacation time and go camping this summer. I can't afford Wacken, so I'll drown my sorrow in nature and alcohol. ;)
