Trivia:
When in costume as either Abe Sapien, the Chamberlain or The Angel of Death, Doug Jones was rendered almost completely blind and deaf from the prosthetic pieces on his head. moreGoofs:
Incorrectly regarded as goofs: During the final fight scene with the Golden Army, as the camera pans back to show the numbers of Machines, some claim there have to be far more than 4900 (70 times 70). In reality, a number this high is almost impossible for the brain to comprehend, let alone identify. Most people intuitively think they can see an almost infinite amount of stars in the night sky, when in fact one can only see about 2000 under good conditions. Also, in biblical terms 70 is often understood as "a lot", so "70 times 70" could simply be intended to mean "an awful lot". moreQuotes:
[first lines]Professor Trevor 'Broom' Bruttenholm: My son, would you turn off that wretched puppet, and brush your teeth?
Young Hellboy: Don't call him a puppet!
Professor Trevor 'Broom' Bruttenholm: I beg your pardon?
Young Hellboy: He's not a puppet! Howdy Doody's real!
Professor Trevor 'Broom' Bruttenholm: Well, Mr. Dee-dee Doo-doo will have to say good night.

Was Wink (The Prince's Monster Bodyguard) CGI, Animatronics, a guy in a costume or all three?Why didn't Marco Beltrami do the score for this movie like he did for the first one?
Universal is releasing this movie. Why not Sony and Revolution like the first movie?

okay, I'll start out simple. This movie is not Gone With the Wind. It isn't Ben Hur, not even Pan's Labyrinth. it is no fantastic achievement in film that will go down in the history books. But really, it's Hellboy - does it really need to be a classic? Honestly, I loved this movie. It was pure fun. I found the first Hellboy movie to be a fun movie. . .but it lacked that certain something that was keeping it from being a great movie. This one introduces all new mythology into the series, which allows director Guillermo Del Toro to invent all sorts of new creatures that all look amazing. The visual aspect of this film is classic, nothing short of amazing. The movie has some flaws, a few strange possible plot holes, but by the end of the day, the humor rules the day, and the humor hit spot on, to make a very funny film. I can't get the song "I can't Smile Without You" now after seeing this film. That segment was hilarious. Hellboy succeeds in being a film with a decent story, good visual work, and great characters with great humor, all to make just an overall FUN movie where Indiana Jones couldn't. (I only mean Kingdom of the Crystal Skull) For someone who believes any film that doesn't win 11 Oscars isn't worth watching, I'll be honest, you'll hate Hellboy 2. For someone who goes in expecting only to be entertained, just to have a fun time, I 100% recommend this film to that kind of person. Go see it, it's very worth it.
