In reply to Step Inside The Making Of Hellboy 2 With Guillermo Del Toro
the movie s**ked big time

it was a huge disappointment for me...

and I consider myself a del Toro fan

with HB 1 I had the feeling that del Toro had to cut away a lot of stuff to get a PG13 rating to please the producers or something

I hoped, after Pan's Labyrinth, he gained some cred and that we would be seeing a much more mature story with HB 2

that sadly wasn't the case...

@SubhagaBabb: i think this is the crux of the matter. hellboy 2 was much worse than el laberinto del fauno because of the rating restrictions; it's difficult to feel the gravity of a situation when one cannot accurately depict death or brutality.
