HELLBOY II: THE GOLDEN ARMY DVD & Blu-Ray artwork!
Awful early DVD cover for del Toro's HELLBOY sequel.
Ironically, since I started Obsessed With Film, I think I've actually seen less movies in the theatre. I just don't have as much spare time as I used to, there would have been a time I would have seen a movie such as Hellboy II, or fuck it, any Guillermo del Toro movie on it's first showing I could find. But as of right now, I haven't seen it despite the film opening on Wednesday, four God damn days ago. That will all change in a few hours though as I'm seeing the movie tonight and maybe it's distance from The Dark Knight's release will help me enjoy it more. Anyway enough of my usual waffling. Universal have today released the cover art for the 2 Disc Blu-Ray and 3-Disc Standard DVD (& Collector's edition) release of the film. Sadly The Digital Bits who carry the scope didn't actually include a big image, so this is all we have. AWFUL cover art, when you remember how cool that Frank Miller esque poster looked.
No extra's have been announced just yet, though if it's anything like the original film's release it will be jam packed with extra goodies. At least 3 hours worth, plus an expected del Toro commentary which I always find fascinating.
He is without doubt one of the best in the business for his truly insightful commentaries.
No firm release date has yet to be given but late October/early November is predicated.
