Hellboy II: As good as Khan?
“And Hellboy II is exactly that: truly brilliant. Whatever your thoughts about the original (some love it, some like it, some are decidedly cool about it), this is light years ahead. This is Wrath Of Khan to its Star Trek: The Motion Picture. It’s that much of an evolution. It’s that good. ”
No way! That’s just crazy talk. I wanna believe Empire Magazine, I really do. But you can’t just throw out a ‘Wrath Khan’ comparison lightly, man? But y’know, if they’re letting Guillermo Del Toro do The Hobbit movies, maybe it is that good.
The trailer did get me quite excited when I saw it before The Incredible Hulk. The Mummy 3 trailer really made me lose faith in all movies, so watching Hellboy do his thing sorta brought me back from the edge. =) It gave me hope that Hollywood can actually make a movie with wild special f/x and CGI AND an intelligent plot.
Hellboy II: The Golden Army hits theaters on July 11th.

Hellboy is gonna be great. Guillermo Del Toro is a proven geek’s director and Ron Perlman plays the part well. He’s funny.
I think this will be awesome. i loved the first one, and when i saw the preview for this one I was amped on it before I even realized that it was a hellboy sequel.
Wow…i must be excited about this cuz somehow I already smell movie popcorn!
