Pitch Meeting 2019 Episode 30 Hellboy (2004) Pitch Meeting 2019

Just as superhero movies were picking up steam with hits like X-Men and Spider-Man, Columbia took an unconventional comic book character out for a spin in his own movie. Hellboy was directed by Guillermo Del Toro and was enough of a success to justify a sequel as well as a 2019 reboot starring David Harbour. Although the 2004 film is stylistically impressive, it raises a lot of questions. Like what’s up with the bad guys throwing up their banner at secret locations? Why wasn’t Broom afraid of Hellboy when he didn’t know anything about him? Why does John Myers even exist? What’s up with Abe Sapien’s inconsistent breathing? On that same note, what’s up with Guillermo Del Toro being fascinated with mer-men?
