LMAO @ Del Toro

/FULLSTOP

/HARDPASS

Everything the guy does is almost good.

Del Toro has a sublime visual sense, but... yeah, his movies usually leave me cold. Not much of a storyteller, IMO. Pan's Labyrinth was an exception, though, and I'm hopeful that the strength of the material he's adapting here helps pull it across the finish line.

He has a history of great looking monsters.

[–] usernamefactory@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 month ago

For sure. I have no doubt that this will be the best looking Frankenstein movie ever made.

Pan's Labyrinth was great? Hellboy was immaculate?

That's a weird way of spelling "perfect movie". Also, who hurt you?
