Hellboy 2 was pretty cool
 

I'm really starting to take to Guillermo Del Toro's sense of style. I'm watching the Devil's Backbone tonight.

I've been starting to think about how any sci-fi/fantasy movie that didn't live up to expectations would have been better if he would have done it.

Yeah, he has a really good eye for "creature" design and how their images can be maximized. He reminds me of The Neverending Story.

Hellboy 2 was goofy but visually entertaining (I've heard the first one wasn't "as campy").

it did make me want to read the comic books though.

the first one was campy too. it (hellboy) has a campy sense of humor along with it's demons and shit. good stuff.

pan's labyrinth scared me more than any "children's movie" has a right to.

Well it's a comic book stories. I like the sense of humor. I found the 2nd one to be better, because they got rid of the Myers character, who was just not needed.

I love the camp element. Hellboy and Abe Sapien getting drunk and singing along to Barry Manilow was awesome.
