    Doug Jones was dubbed over in the first movie without his knowledge, and didn't know he would be during filming. He came up with the voice and mannerisms, and in post they decided to replace his performance with David Hyde Pierce (Niles from FRASIER). When they asked Doug to return for the sequel, he actually had to FIGHT for the right to voice the character himself and won.

      Also to David Hyde Pierce's integrity, after he heard Doug Jones' performance in the first film he wondered why he was even hired for the job and refused to take a credit on the film out of respect for Doug Jones' work. For similar reasons Pierce also turned down offers to voice Abe in future projects leading to those roles going to Doug Jones.

    • @Lannisen
      @Lannisen 10 дней назад +8

      Del Toro promised never to dub over Doug Jones ever again, something he had to go back on with Pan's Labyrinth, but then he ended up doing it with Jones' blessing because he knew he wouldn't get the Spanish right.

    The death of the elemental got to me as well - you understand why it had to die, but you wish it didn’t. Kudos to Prince Nuada for that move, he forced Hellboy to make a choice, end a species or let it kill, which is the same dilemma the elves faced. Either die, or reclaim.

    Luke Goss is a really underrated actor who does his own stunts. Often overlooked because of his physical performances you should look up some of his other films where he does some good acting. He did a good creature in the 2004 Frankenstein.
    As always, great respect for Selma Blair who continues to be a symbol of strength for all those who have life-affecting illnesses and injuries.
    And yes, it was Seth McFarlane who voiced Kraus.
    Fun movie, great reaction, but unfortunately there are no more. But, if you want more Del Toro weirdness, you need to see Pan’s Labyrinth.

    So David Hyde Pierce refused to really take credit for the part because he had immense respect for Doug Jones who is the physical actor for Abe. So by the time the second came around, he didn’t even want to do it. He said that Doug Jones should be the one to do it.

      Such a hard question. I like them both for different reasons. I like the first one for how fresh it was and though different than the comic book, it captured the spirit of it so well. And it was such a great origin story.
      On the other hand, the second one was such great pure horror fantasy. Reminded me of some of the best urban fantasy in literature.
      The second one is probably my favorite, overall. It’s better fantasy.

    I believe that's actually Doug Jones voice this time around for Abe. At the time I saw this in theaters it didn't throw me off as much since I had gotten used to seeing him in other movies and TV shows. But I understand it sounds different if you watch the Hellboy movies back to back, it's more noticeable. Also, it's a pretty funny the plot point in the beginning about Hellboy being exposed to the public since in the comics, he's a known public figure almost from the beginning. Which means that the comic book version's universe is populated by so much paranormal weirdness that some big red horned guy walking around seems mundane. Of course most of Hellboy's adventures take place outside of major cities. The series has him frequent very old world locations, country sides, and isolated areas the majority of the time, rarely in a big city like in the movies. Despite that, it's still pretty amusing that people in the comics, even in these settings, just react casually when Hellboy walks up and starts asking them questions about some creature they witnessed or encountered, while smoking a cigarette

    When Rasputin dies in the first movie, we cheer, he's horrible. When Nuada dies, we cry! He had a point (kinda) and it's just sad, the world really does get poorer with his people's fading. He's tragic, and it's a shame him and Nuala had to die.

    FAB!! Luke Goss is on top form in the fight choreo, just like he was in Blade 2. In terms of tracking shots ... Have you guys watched the 1998 Brian De Palma thriller SNAKE EYES with Nicholas Cage and Gary Sinise ...12 min opening tracking shot - exquisite!! Well worth a reaction!

    So crazy that I couldn’t originally recall much of this movie besides the scenes in the beginning (up to the tooth fairy creatures part) and the creepy Angel of Death looking character, but I remember the cat lady and the inching of the blade towards _a_ heart so clearly. Strange that those parts of those scenes stuck in my mind, but I could never remember where they were from.

    What a gem among other comic movies! it's funny, spectacular, touching, scary and hideous. Guillermo had set unbelievably high plank with Hellboy 2. Now is 2024 and it has barely aged a day. Thanks for your reaction. I appreciate so much love for films that i adore myself so i dare to recommend you check 'Lone Ranger' with Johnny Depp, 'Sherlock Holmes' with Robert Downey Jr, 'The Grand Budapest Hotel' with Ralph Fiennes, 'La migliore offerta' with Geoffrey Rush, 'Escape Plan' with Sly and Arnie, 'The Watch' with Ben Stiller, 'Paul' with Simon Pegg and Nick Frost.

    Well, that was also directed by Del Toro, so him and his team may have done similar designs.

    in 2016 there was a museum exhibition of Guillermo Del Toro's work in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art; for a time you could have seen all his stuff irl in the right here in Cali.
    iirc he converted his house into a museum of classic horror monsters and a lot of his work would obviously be in his own museum; thoudg i don't know if that's still a thing

    Such a shame it was decided to do a reboot which btw started near the end of the comics. While the reboot was closer in plot to the comics, the Del Toro movies really nailed the themes and visual story telling which made the comics so good

    David hyde pierce voiced Abe Sapien in first Hellboy while Doug Jones did acting part. Story is that David refused to take credit for the voice in respect to Doug Jones and did not come back for part 2 so Doug can do both voice and physical part.

    id love a 3rd one that cold opens with his twins as toddler/1year olds, they grow fast canonically, but the actual story follows them as teens getting into more trouble than usual because they look human but are powerful. where their parents and the reformed group need to step in and then everyone woks together for the 2nd half, maybe we'd see their rare demon forms.

    When Roxy and Tara get to Curse Of Chucky and Cult Of Chucky, Greg better make sure they watch the unrated cuts for those movies since the theatrical cuts don't have the post credit scenes that set up the next installment because Greg keeps skipping the unrated versions like he did with The Descent, Jennifer's Body and the Saw movies.

    Not sure if it was mentioned, but if you're into anime watch the Fatal Fury Special film (Fatal Fury the motion picture) I think it's called sometimes. Literally the exact same story. Not sure if that's where Guillermo got the plot idea from. But it's crazy.

  • @szandorkane6372
    @szandorkane6372 13 дней назад

    I highly recommend watching the making of of this. The practical and prop effects are ridiculous. Like the shot when Nuada holds up the green bean in the egg? They actually built a huge version of the egg and bean (and his thumb) to shoot the extreme close-up. Also the final shot of Nuada's statue body breaking apart is an actual prop statue getting destroyed in a controlled manner, which they apparently only had one shot at to get right.

    12:00 Doug Jones plays Abe Sapien. This is Doug Jones' voice in this movie. In the first movie, they dubbed his voice with the voice of David Hyde Pierce from Frasier (because he was a bigger name), and they didn't tell Doug Jones they were going to do it. When Pierce found this out, he refused to take official credit for voicing the role and withdrew from any press or premieres out of respect for Doug Jones. Doug Jones playing the whole character (including the voice) in this movie was the studio righting a wrong.
