I guess the reason people are hyped is they're hoping it'll be more accurate to the comics, but to me all these things scream "studio execs acting like idiots" and I'm not exactly excited about it.

I'm willing to give it a chance if it launches and gets at least a 70% on Rotten Tomatoes.

I don't base my tastes on the score all of the time (I have guilty pleasures that are as low as 4%), but It's not worth it if it does nothing to contribute to an already good franchise that didn't need a reboot to begin with.

David Harbour is a good actor, but what I wouldn't give for Hellboy to be British for once…

But that's all it gets, one chance not to disappoint me. Anything beyond that is god's miracle.

It is better than the previous trailer, but not by much. It still reeks of studio trying to poorly imitate Marvel movies. Hellboy should be more of a grump instead of the middle aged man who tries to be hip. It seems to take some visuals from the comics, but everything else is shit. Del Toro's version was far better. It was not faithful to the comic either as far as plot and some characters are concerned, but at least it was imaginative and did not reek of trend chasing and pandering. Art direction in it was far better too and closer to the source material than this crap.

Why? If you are talking about the character, it does not makes sense as he was raised in American military bases. If you are talking about the actors, there is only minimal difference unless you are a teaboo. There is plenty of bad British actors, but burgers are just not exposed to them too often.

This movie can't succeed. On an objective level as a movie, it looks cheap and the plot is very by the numbers considering it's gonna end with a big monster battle in a city. Probably with a sky lazer. As an adaptation, it's obvious it's getting everything wrong while sometimes trying to implement things from the comics.

Then there's just the fact there's no sense in starting a new series of movies with the end story of Hellboy's comics. Unless they plan to fuck up the entire apocalypse BPRD story afterwards. I don't even think they're including Liz or Abe in this new movie so there's not many characters to hinge any future movies off of.

It's all a massive recipe for disaster.

It's no wonder everything is CGI when the makeup/practical effects they have for Hellboy are so fucking shit. Just look at this coloration from his face to the rest of his body. They're completely different shades. Then we look at the fucking papercraft/cardboard STONE FIST. How do you fuck up something so simple by making it look brass at best instead of stone?!

I think they went with "let's just sculpt the body we want and make a David Habour shaped hole for him to be inside." It's obvious from this clip >>1053789 that he can barely fucking move with the full body replacement. Also, it's obvious that the Right Hand of Doom is a prop because the sleeve is too small for it to fit through.

His makeup generally looks awful. It looks like someone took the Geico caveman and painted him red. However, a lot of this is because audiences are already used to the bulked up Del Toro Hellboy. If this is a younger hellboy, then it can still work. It'll just require a lot more effort.

One, that makes no sense. Hellboy looks the same once he's an adult. Two, this is Hellboy in his very last story before dying. So no it's not a young Hellboy. Unless they fucked that up too.
