Hellboy 2: The Golden Army
De_El:
The first Hellboy movie was just okay, and in itself was not incentive to see a second one, but then again it is friggin' Hellboy. Plus, coming off of Pan's Labyrinth, everyone had pretty high hopes for this'n, as can be seen by the discussion in the beginning of the thread. I had a pretty great time, and although it certainly didn't totally bowl me over as a film (of course, the art direction and the creatures were breathtaking and amazing) I think it was well worth my cash.

I'm seeing this on thursday with an old friend. He's paying because I have 5.50 in quarters. The movie looks FUN, I would only compare the artwork and cinematography with Pan's Labyrinth, not the story or the characters. I have a feeling that this movie is going to be much more fun than the first, with the exception of Abe....stupid Niles Crane.
beat mouse:
Doug Jones voices Abe in this one^
Dimmukane:
He actually sounds a lot like he did in the first one, with a slightly less British accent.

I LOVED it, guys. I honestly do not understand all the bitching. When it was cheesy, it was the kind of cheese that I thoroughly enjoy, and I loved the sense of depth that the underlying mythology gave it. All of the flaws - acting, voicing, whatever - were piddling minor compared to the feeling of complete satisfaction I had from the movie as a whole. I'm not familiar with the comics, but as movies, Hellboy and this sequel have really carved out a niche for themselves; there really isn't a comparison to be made with other comic/superhero movies (at least, not the one's I've seen).
Fuck all y'all haters; this movie is excellent.
