Moon madness? Still waiting for Hellboy!

Peter Jackson approached Guillermo del Toro to direct Halo (2009), and even though del Toro considered it, he turned the offer down so he could direct this sequel. Also, Del Toro turned down I Am Legend (2007), One Missed Call (2008), and Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2008) for the same reason.

...del Toro is either really confident in Hellboy, really attached to the franchise, or stone cold crazy. I mean -- a Harry Potter movie? For Hellboy? Did it really kick that much ass in the box office? Whatever the case, keep rocking, sir.

Must -- resist the urge to read Hellboy comics -- until after I've met my wordcount on the Dragon/Ambassador story.

ALSO LOL HI NEW FRIENDS. Umm, look, I'm totally awesome, I... I am this cool:



And that's pretty damn cool, evidently.

I got nothing.

I'm a little nervous, myself, about HB opening right before Batman Begins. I desperately want HB to be epic, but I'm worried it'll get totally dwarfed by a Batman movie, or worse, "that movie Ledger died filming". Maybe the bigger than Jesus thing will draw in the crowds?

Definitely seeing Hellboy on opening night, though. XD As a tribute to del Toro's strange love affair. Yeah, M. Night definitely has some of that going on.

Hellboy looks like awesome with a side of awesomesauce, I admit. Though I also want to see Loaded now that I know that it doesn't take itself seriously; a shameless boomfest is fun every once in a while.
