A scene from the new trailer for Hellboy 2: The Golden Army
I realize that to the general public, Hellboy is even less well known than Iron Man. And then we have the story - a demon from Hell, who battles other demons on behalf of mankind.
Doesn’t exactly sound like happy go lucky family entertainment, does it?
I’m here to tell you to set that all aside if you want to see a kick-ass fantasy action movie with plenty of wit, to boot. Check out the trailer below, which is even better than the first one.

I love the look of this movie: The wild creature designs and the cinematography that looks like Technicolor on steriods. This trailer also gives us a better idea of the actual plot of the film.
Hellboy II: The Golden Army was written and directed by Guillermo del Toro, who is well known for his visually striking films. He was the guy who did the first Hellboy movie as well as Pan’s Labyrinth (which I’m embarrassed to admit I haven’t seen yet).
You really owe it to yourself to go see Hellboy II when it opens on July 11th!

HOLY CRAP!! I’ll be right back.
Yeah, I’m pumped! I loved the first one, but this one looks alot better. Guiermo’s on a role yo.
I really enjoyed the first one, and this one looks like it’s gonna be awesome!!
I do think that Stargate Atlantis wants their Wraiths back, though….
I was impressed with Hellboy, though I’d never heard of him. Frankly, I don’t remember much, but I know I liked his wisecracks, and it had sci fi, fantasy, and superhero aspects, which reduced the paranormal genre for me.
Hellboy II looks to include a lot of interesting character imagery, reminding me of the best aliens from Farscape and Star Wars. It seems like the CGI in this movie usually does more than digitally rendering a roomful of identical creatures (although the bat-demons are an exception).
Guiermo does what the Cgi world needs and thats lots and lots of set implementation, and not being lazy and just making everything CGI. His movies always provide a great balance between practical sets and creatures and CGI.
Also like I’ve said so many times. Ron Pearlman is most definitely the most perfect cast actor for a comic book character EVER.
Jeppers how cool is that!
(sorry feel a little scobby doo today)
Great year for going to the silver screen and comic fans. Guillermo del Toro is a directing genius and so hope that he directs the “Hobbit”.
good trailer, but its weakened by some very bad lines of dialogue
“dont call me babe” c’mon, that’s not funny, and Hellboy’s response is even worse
Surma, Pearlman is awesome as Hellboy, but I think Hugh Jackman was a pretty good casting choice for Wolverine. Actually, if you think about it, X-men is probably one of the best comic book movies ever casted in it’s entirety. Patrick Stewart was the perfect choice for Xavier and Ian McKellan was AWESOME as Magneto. Great casting for that entire movie.
I am so going to be in line to see this. It looks great. Glad Del toro is attached.
I can’t wait for this film, as soon as I heard about it I was excited. I’m so glad the Del Toro has returned as well, and hope that (without ruining it) they could continue into a series of films (as long as the all the cast stay on).
Oh, and the trailer looks awesome!!
I really enjoyed the first one and especially loved watching it listening to the cast commentary. Big fan of Del Torro and Pearlman and really looking forward to this. Pearlman deserves to have one big hit to be known by.
Hellboy 2 looks good!
Had to watch it again. Looks excellent and I can’t wait. The main villain does seem to be a wraith, or maybe Drizzt, but I can get by that.
Really glad Jeffrey Tambor is in again too.
I love this movie so much! It’s a full package. Personally i find Luke Goss who played the prince was the perfect man for the job. He also played Nomack in Blade 2 which was awesome too!
this was the coolest movie a never
