Re: Hellboy II: The Golden Army
I don't think that we're freaks! IMO, we all just enjoy a little bit of character development. Characters develop in deferent ways, and one of the main ways Red develops is through humor.
I suppose that I want to see this movie after all... |

Re: Hellboy II: The Golden Army
I thought Hellboy II was a huge let down. I thought the first one was OK, and was amazed at what Del Toro did with Pan's Labyrinth, so maybe I was expecting a little too much. However, I don't think I was. To start off, the script was terrible, with no new character development, even for Johann Kraus who was a new character (for the movie). The plot in Hellboy II made no sense. So Nuada wants to kill all of mankind because they forgot about him? That's it? The movie probably would have been better if they actually used a story from the comics. The only positive things about this movie were the monster designs and the fight between Hellboy and Kraus.

Re: Hellboy II: The Golden Army
I liked it. It was filled with everything I want in a movie.

Re: Hellboy II: The Golden Army
I finally got to see this and though it wasnt what I would expect with an occult focused comic, it was really entertaining and well done. Since I have recently played alot of Changeling (Whitewolf RPG) alot of it hit really close to that (the troll market, the different creatures, the elves, etc) and had a great changeling/faerie feel to it. So as far as supernatural investigation goes, I really loved it.

Re: Hellboy II: The Golden Army
Still haven't seen this (or the first one), but I'm just popping in to say that tonight at 8:00 PM and 9:30 PM, Cartoon Network is airing the two animated movies, Sword of Storms and Blood and Iron. They're great movies, the latter moreso than the former, and most of the movie cast returns to do the voicework. Ron Perlman as Hellboy himself, of course.
So, if you have nothing better to do, tune in. EDIT: Oh, we have threads for both of them... well, rather than bump, I'll give a link for those who want to comment: Sword of Storms; Blood and Iron JOHNNY139'S CLASSIC CUSTOM THREAD! | Visit now!

Re: Hellboy II: The Golden Army
I finally saw this with my son today and we both dug it. The action was cool, especially the final battle with the Golden Army and the Elf prince (whatever his name was).

Re: Hellboy II: The Golden Army
The singing was hilarious, but the pacing around that scene really ruined it for me. I couldn't think anything but "This is going sooooo sloooooow, and they chose to break it up with some comedy??"
I absolutely loved the Golden Army/Prince Duel scenes. But it was too slow in the beginning and too much of a comedy, IMO. Arena of the Valkyire - Help create Heroscape's next Master Set! Trade List C3V Brainstorm never not funny Pepperony - 14/09/13 |

Re: Hellboy II: The Golden Army
I saw this over the weekend. I enjoyed it. It was not as good as the first. Hellboy just didn't have the charm he did in the first one. I got a kick out of the drunken ballad and the locker room scene. I was disappointed that they didn't really go to the Giant's Causeway, not even a CG one.
OK, the complete geek in me totally wants to see the elf prince take on Darth Maul in a fight to the death. Follow the adventures of Agent Minivann

Re: Hellboy II: The Golden Army
The movie was great overall. I haven't read the comics (which gives my opinion less credit) but what I don't like in the movies is that Hellboy is pampered in the field. I don't like the MIB/Krav Maga Agent side kicks. Maybe in part 3 it wouldn't be this way since they went rogue.
Kickass film and its better than the first one IMO. |

Re: Hellboy II: The Golden Army
Boy was this film fantastic!
If time allows, I always go back and watch a second viewing of an enjoyed film with the commentary. Del Toro was immensely pleased with this film and I totally agree. It was a solid adventure film that left behind the gore and grimness of the Hellboy I. It was also good to get passed the origins of Hellboy and the other characters the first film had to set up. The golden army sequence at the end was fantastic. I stopped following the comic as I was displeased with the writing, so I never got to know Krauss's character that well. Does he come off the same in the comics? I remember reading the issues when he first arrived and don't recall his personality as it is in Hellboy II. The prince makes me think how cool an Elric film would be! |
