Saving the world is a hell of a job

The second trailer for Hellboy II: The Golden Army, sequel to 2004's Hellboy, has been revealed by Universal and as with the first trailer, it looks mighty promising.

With a bigger budget at his disposal, director Guillermo del Toro looks to have literally taken the movie by its horns and created something of a creature extravaganza.

The two and a half minute trailer, which incidentally leaves you thinking "what the hell is this movie about?", does a grand job of showcasing the Pan’s Labyrinth-esque characters that del Toro excels at creating.

Without further ado, here it is in YouTube form. Those wanting HD-goodness, head on over to Yahoo Movies.

Ron Perlman looks right at home as Hellboy in this outing, oozing confidence and dishing out jokes that seem to work well. It's a great year for comic books fans, and you'll want to put Hellboy II alongside The Dark Knight, Iron Man and The Incredible Hulk as your must-see comic-book movies of the year.

As always, share your thoughts on the new trailer in the HEXUS forums.

Looking freakishly good although it's a shame Pierce isn't making a return voicing Abe. Just hope del Toro can pull it off again.

That's Doug Jones voicing Abe, not David Hyde Pierce. He's also voicing the Angel of Death and the Chamberlain, his other two charcters in the film.

Yes I know that, I meant to say "it's a shame Pierce isn't making a return voicing Abe" - his voice and mannerisms came across very well in the first film.

Ah. Okay. Dang those typos!!

Anyway, David based his vocal mannerisms and inflexion strongly on Doug's on-set performance, so most people aren't noticing too much of a difference.
First one was great fun - i'd welcome the second :)
