I do not know if I want to see anymore of these fairy tales for adults, but this one is as good a way to kill 110 minutes as any.
the movie of the summer is not batman it's hellboy II.
gullermo del toro's direction is comic book perfect. the charecters all are human and tone perfect.
I came away even more in love with selma blair than before.
awesome awesome film that teaches films with ten times the production and marketing budgets a thing or two about comicbook filmmaking.
expect a long review on my blog soon. |

In The Dark Knight he's living in a penthouse while Wayne Manor is being rebuilt. |

| Hard to believe though it may be, it appears that some English women were resistant to Seagull's charms. I'm afraid that I'd have to agree with him that the most likely explanation was rascism. |

plenty were, and the explaination might equally have been my dorkiness, but don't let that be an excuse for you being a racist who can't resist my pull... |

Quote: ...
Model and Fisher found that, with or without controls and irrespective of ethnicity, British blacks were more likely to have a native-born white partner than US blacks. These results could indicate a more hospitable environment for mixed-race partnering in Britain, greater levels of racial residential segregation in the US, varying rates and types of assimilation, and different national conceptions of who is black or white (2002: 746-748).
In the United Kingdom, rates of intermarriage between first and second-
generation blacks and native-born whites are at least double those found in the US... |

| I wasn't crazy about the first Hellboy film; too predictable, too cigar-chompingly ironic by half. This one seems to be getting really good reviews and I'm feeling the temptation, just like Joe's temptation to see The Dark Knight, despite his anti-bat political leanings. |

| He seems Spanish because Pan's Labyrinth was set in Spain. It was actually Mexico's entry for the Oscar for Best Foreign Film. |
