I mean, Mark Waid is, IMO, one of the very best. And Irredeemable came as a surprise because it's unlike most of his other work, thematically. He nails it though.

Don't ever frownyfase about Impulse.
Bart is a TREASURE aznd he will ALWAYS BE a treasure no matter WHAT and Waid's late 90s/early 00s Flash/Impulse run was the absolute best, period, forever.

I like this site.
Pretty neat for movie score aggregation based on factors like Netflix availability, year, genre, etc.

Already taken down of course, but YYYYYEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSS

Hellboy trailer can be seen at IMDB and here. I thought it as okay. It didn't give me that 'OMG, I must see this movie in the theater!" feeling I was hoping for and have gotten from a few other trailers for upcoming movies but I thought it was okay.
-
@zombiegenesis Yeah, same here. Good stuff but didn't give me the same excitement as the first Perlman trailer.
-
I'm just happy for more Hellboy okay?!
-
I'm actually anticipating this movie. I think David Harbour is a good replacement for Perlman and I really like Ian McShane. He manages to get some really interesting roles from time to time.
-
I'm hesitant on this one, based on the director and writer.
Top billing Milla Jovovich should tell you something.

@ganymede
What is it about the director and writers that give you concern? They seem to have some good credits behind them on IMDB. -
Neil Marshall's credentials are just fine, if you're at the helm of an indie movie with an interesting premise and good writing. Doomsday and Centurion were middling, and Hellboy is his first foray into this particular genre. I don't often piddle on rookie directors in the superhero genre, but there is nothing on his resume that leads me to believe he can handle the mix of emo-punk and humor that is captured in the Hellboy comics.
As for as Andrew Cosby, this is his first foray into the writing of feature-length screenplay. Again, I wouldn't normally poo-poo a rookie, but this particular rookie doesn't have the sort of resume that would give me confidence.
As for casting? They got Milla Jovovich as the villain. Milla Jovovich. That's the biggest, most talented name they could pull.
