Hellboy: Thumbs Up
Just watched Hellboy.  I liked it!  I've never read the comics (gonna try em out now), so watchin it was absolutely NO background info on it, I really dug it.  Ron Pearlman's the shit.  I dunno how Cthulu inspired the comics are, but this flick had a ton of cthulu-esque shit in it (including some awesome looking "great old ones" types of monsters from space.)  Definately recommend it.  It's got a lot of humor in it which might turn you guys off, but I thought it was pretty well-balanced.  I liked Blade and UNderworld and all that, BUT they were mostly "serious" throughout, and that can get kinda burnt.  This flick sticks to it's tone pretty good.  Watch it.
