Guillermo Del Toro
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0903624/
if you don't know who he is, he directed Pans Labyrinth and the recently released Hellboy movie..
he's known for having some really cool looking creatures and special effects, as well as some fairly scary movies..
I think it's fairly interesting that they're going to make The Hobbit, I really enjoyed that book over the others, but to be honest, I'm getting tired of these series remakes. That's all I ever hear or see anymore. "Lets remake chrono trigger!" or "lets create a series based off a comic book!" or "lets remake these movies!" or "lets create a sequel to a series that's really old!" or "lets update the graphics in X movie!"
all of these ideas lack creativity and originality.
Of course, it doesn't mean that I don't like some of those movies, Spiderman and Batman are some great examples of hollywood cashing in on ideas thought up years ago. And look at me, I'm even going to see this Hellboy movie (mostly because Guillermo Del Toro is a crazy bastard!)
Video Game Industry, Hollywood, all of it is just the same old song with some different words, that has the same meaning.
If movies are art, then clearly so are video games!
Anyway, I've read a couple of different reviews for hellboy 2 and they all said it was ok, not the best, but just a regular action flick.
apparently i'm one of the few people who are going to see it for the monster effects..
