Hellboy (2019)

No Del Toro and no Perlman... 🙁

movie is being written by Mignola, frequent collaborator Christopher Golden, and Eureka creator

http://www.newsarama.com/34406-hellboy-gets-r-rated-movie-reboot.html

don't know why it needs to be rated R but oh well.

Da fuq?

Harbour is good choice though he has very large shoes to fill.

No Ron Perlman? Forget watching this then.

I'll give the movie a chance

but Harbour will have a big shoes to fill, I'm waiting to see what Ron thinks of this happening.

Hmmm... dunno.

I'd rather see Hellboy 3 than an R rated reboot, its only cuz Logan and deadpool were R rated and a success that they're making it R rated

I don't think he can say anything, really. He can't be happy about it but if he bitches about it he comes across as a bad loser. His followers have already said it for him, anyway.

He can also praise David Harbour being a good actor etc for the role.

Looks like so far he and Del Toro are trying to take the high road by not saying much. It has to hurt, having Hellboy taken away from them, so it's probably a bit too much to expect them to immediately start congratulating Harbour and Marshall.

I hope they don't do the origin story again. Just a fresh story with a new approach, why not.

That's pretty gay. Too soon for a reboot. Why not let Del Toro and Perlman do their third movie rated R? It's even gained sort of a cult status.

^^^that'd be best.

Like Kaz said though, dont see any real need for the R, but i'll give it a chance.

Because the studio's don't want to agree to the budget Del Toro wanted for his third movie.

The comic book isn't overly violent or vulgar, so the film being rated r seems like a ploy because of Logan and Deadpool, IMO.

I'd rather have Hellboy 3 with Del Toro and Perlman.

Then I blame Del Toro. You can do a lot more with lower budgets than you used to be able to do. The second movie was not better because it had a bigger budget. In fact, I think the larger budget hurt it. They should scale it back a little bit and do the third movie. A budget more like the first film would be perfect.

I do blame Del Toro because David Twohy and Vin Diesel with the Riddick franchise rolled with the punches and were perfectly willing to scale back the budget especially considering it gave them greater creative freedom.

^^^^makes sense.

Del Toro has a history for asking for big budget fundings for his projects & Hollywood has a history for knocking him back.

Hollywood wants weekend box profits not films that get cult status.

Don't get me wrong, I'm a big Del Toro fan.
We've seen what he can achieve with low budgets.

For once I'd like see what he could do on a big budget scale.

Don't blame Del Toro.
Blame Costner!

^ I respect him a lot as a filmmaker. And with a good story he's good big OR small budget. Pacific Rim had a huge budget and was great, but Hellboy movies need a good story, one that's not overwhelmed by its budget (which is what happened in Hellboy II imo).

Plus, if you don't operate within the system and it doesn't get made, then what's the point??!
