10 Most Insane Things Happening In Movies & TV Right Now (Dec 21st)

9. The Hellboy Reboot Trailer Is Utterly, Utterly Insane

Why have they done this? Is it some sort of joke? Why is the tone so wildly inconsistent? Why is Laila Morse - best known to everyone in the UK as fearsome matriarch "Big Mo" from long-running British soap opera Eastenders - wielding a machine gun? Yes, she's Gary Oldman's sister, but that's no excuse for this.

Why are there so many bad accents? What is this dialogue?

Why have they undone all of the incredible marketing done so far on the back of David Harbour's look as Hellboy and made THIS trailer as the first real advertising tool? They appear to have made a movie that meshes Lock, Stock & Two Smoking Barrels and Crocodile Dundee, while the real movie - the supernatural, Del Toro-infused action movie - is pushed to the side.

Sure, it's good that there's humour in there, but it's too much and fundamentally it all distracts from how great Harbour appears to be as Big Red.
