Hellboy director Guillermo del Toro confirmed to fans on the movie Web site's official bulletin board that plans are in the works for a sequel and other projects based on the film. "Yes, we are talking about a second movie," del Toro wrote. "The [box-office] numbers make perfect sense, since we were a relatively 'inexpensive' movie at under $70 million, and we will make enough domestically."

Del Toro added that he and Mike Mignola, creator of the Hellboy graphic novels on which the film is based, "are fleshing out ideas and storylines we've been discussing for some time now. Mike thinks there will be no Lobster (sob), but Roger is in for sure," referring to popular comic characters Lobster Johnson and Roger the Homunculus. Del Toro said that the sequel could contain plot elements from the Hellboy graphic novels Almost Colossus and Conqueror Worm.

Del Toro added that there are plans for a Hellboy anime series, from Gonzo Anime, and that producers are seeking possible video-game publishers. "Mike Mignola and I will be involved in the plotting of [the game] to make sure that it flows with the mythology of the movie, anime, comic, etc.," he said.

Didn't anyone else think that Hellboy was absolute shit? :huh:

I didn't, But I'm totally in the bag for Ron Perlman and the director of the film so I really enjoyed it. I have definitely seen worse comic to movie adaptations.

:o You honestly liked Hellboy? :unsure: ...It was so dumb it made my teeth hurt :blink: .....It made "HULK" look good ;)

Yeah I liked it. you're right about HULK though I was very disappointed that is one of my favorite characters and movie directors. I was expecting more from Ang Lee.
