This is not my type of thing.

[AJane]

It's totally mine...I can hardly wait

The special effects look really good, so if you're into that I think you'll really enjoy this movie.

[weston]

I'm a fan of the comic book, the director(Guillermo del Toro), and Ron Perlman, it should be fun.

I am a fan of the original Hellboy too, Weston, but I'm wary of this because of the spat of poor filmic adaptations of kickin' comic books. *Sigh* Like every Alan Moore adaptation ever! Stay away from The Watchmen!!!

[VeeJay]

I really wanna see this too but I think I'm gonna wait 'til it's on DIRECTV.

[weston]

SFG - yeah...like the Watchmen is a filmable product. The new Batman film looks really good though, with Christian Bale AND Gary Oldman AND Liam Neeson in it...and the villian being Ra's Al Ghul, it's going to be hard to beat.

[SnowflakeGirl]

Woohoo! That's a great cast, Weston. You'd have to be a complete Eeediot to mess up the new Batman.

[PSi]

How many more comic books they going to turn into movies? the last few were flops and i can only assume the same with this one.....
