Did you see the story and photos from when Ron went through all the hours in makeup to get dressed up as Hellboy to hang out with a Make-A-Wish kid? Ron's a great guy.
It was one of the requirements from both Del Toro and Mignola to do the film, that Ron Perlman should be cast as Hellboy. The film even got put into hiatus until they could get him because he was busy with other works before this.
@@666blackcarbon9 I liked the new film as a whole but i have to say that Ron Perlman was just SO perfect in the role is hard to see anyone else in it's shoes, isn't it?
It took four hours every day to put all the makeup & props on Ron Perlman. He did it without complaining for two whole movies and again years later for a kid in the "Make A Wish" Foundation. Talk about dedication.
The Hellboy II: the Golden Army was such a feast for the eyes. If you like this, you'll love that. Del Toro is such a wonderful world builder. His creations are always so beautifully rendered. Ron Pearlman is also excellent in both. It was a shame we never got the third installment. ☹️
Doug Jones is the actor in the Abe Sapien costume, and is the same actor in the Shape of Water fishman costume. (The voice of Abe is David Hyde Pierce, who played Niles Crane on Frasier). Jones is currently playing Saru on Star Trek Discovery.
Hellboy is good, but the 2nd one is better imo. Golden Army is amazing, this is one of the few series where i thought the 2nd was better then the first. Sad Del toro never did a 3rd one.
38:26 Karl Rupert Krone is a very interesting character and a unique backstory. He was the son of Watchmaker and learned from his father the mechanics of how it works. He was also a talented opera singer from an early age but lost his angelic voice after hitting puberty. He also had phobia of germs and bacteria and also suffered from a severe personality trait of perfectionism. He then went into multiple surgeries and some self surgeries which later developed into masochism. He then wore his suit and mask to filter out bacteria and germs to keep his exposed tissue from infection. People outside the comics gave him the name “The Clockman”
I remember loving the originals when I was a little boy so much because Ron Pearlman made the the character so endearing and sympathetic without feeling campy or awkward. There was also the perfect balance of exposition enough to keep 8 year old me entertained.
The '' I'm fireproof, your not! '' is so iconic and cool, love this line! Hellboy has an amazing design, his big arm is impressive and strong; his short horns are stylish. The make-up is fantastic 🤩
I love and adore Guillermo del Toro's first Hellboy movie I'll never forget my dad showing me it, when I was a kid it was one of the most amazing movies I had ever seen as I was so invested in the characters, story and the mood of the movie it always takes me back such great memories
@Padre_diego_longoose oh, that's really cool it was one of those movie's for me as a kid that I just was just found so cool and interesting so glad it had the same effect on your kids also😎
The thing about Hellboy when he is around with the reason the character works so well especially those two together is that she brings out a vulnerability in him. Around the agents he's you know the macho dude around his dad he's the rebellious teenager but around Liz he is the self-doubting lovestruck little boy that shows that he's actually very vulnerable and very emotional at his core
I love this movie. The entire cast is great, esp. Ron Perlman - he and Del Toro fought so hard to get this made with him as Hellboy - but it’s also the first time I remember seeing Doug Jones and he’s one of my fave actors now. I love him in all his weird roles. RIP John Hurt, too, brilliant actor. Funny how he hates Mimic - I love that movie.
Definitely, but i still really enjoyed the new one. The hard R was great and so was David Harbour, but the studio meddling and bad editing did stand out. But i still have a lot of fun with that movie.
27:30 The flames on her in the bed was a mix of CGI, and an overlaid real flame, The building If I remember right was a model the they blew-up. Del Toro did as much practical for this move as he could get away with. Like The hound of Resurrection, in most of the shots it is a guy in a suit, with just minor CGI to hide were you see the guy playing the creature (like his face and the seems of the suit).
Guillermo Del Toro is one of the best directors and visionary of all time. Period. Stop. PERIOD. I was really bummed how poorly these films did at the box office. The sets, the cinematography, the sound design, the direction, THE CAST! Hellboy is the only Darkhorse comic I’ve read and I’ll be honest I’ve read very little. There is such…. Whimsy to this that I never really expected. I’m getting overwhelmed like it’s my first time watching it seeing you two react! There are a lot of onions in here. I hope you react to the sequel on here!! 🖤🖤
Doug Jones is the “fish guy” and plays essentially the same character in Shape of Water too. Also plays the Pale Man in Pans Labyrinth as well as many other characters that require heavy prosthetics.
Do you recognize the guy who plays Abe Sapien? No but it is Doug Jones and HE'S A LEGEND whenever there's an iconic freaky tall monster or creature it's usually him - same for Shape of Water
Yo! I fucking love Hellboy, both of them. We ain’t gonna acknowledge 2019. But this movie I was obsessed with. I watch it 22 times over a three day weekend when it came out on dvd.
Yes, I definitely think you should watch the sequel for this. I just rewatched it recently and it's a lot of fun. Looking at the filmography Guillermo has also done Pacific Rim and a Pinocchio movie from a couple years back. From that list I've only seen Pacific Rim and that's a lot of fun, but I'd assume the Pinocchio movie is good too. Also, yes, with the new Blade movie likely coming in the next couple years, and the Wesley Snipes version possibly showing up in Secret Wars, Tara should watch the previous Blade movies.
@@eligra I have seen a good chunk of Pan's Labyrinth in Spanish class in school, but it was like 15 or so years ago so I don't remember most of it anyways.
Yes! I liked this movie and it's Sequel! I just wish Guillermo Del Toro and Ron Perlman would make more HellBoy movies. A reboot starring David Harbour was released in 2019, but it was not well received by critics or fans, and it's now deemed to be one of the worst comic book movies ever made.
I never understood the hate for the new one. I livestreamed it with my streaming audience in discord to watch for the first time and no one present said they didn't enjoy it. It's obviously not Ron Perlman but I really liked it.
I remember first watching this with my dad and then him telling me who played hellboy made it so much better I loved Ron in blade he was a fun character and he CRUSHED this role I was obsessed with this movie as a kid. I miss when it wasn’t ALL cgi like the hours of make up,set designs, and practical effects this movie is pretty perfect for the time and hellboy the golden army is just as good or some would say even better hope you guys react to it. Doesn’t matter but my dad and I still use the quotes “red means STOP ✋ ” and “gonna be sore in the morning” 😂
Doug Jones was the actor for both Abe and the fish man in "Shape of Water". A different actor did the voice for Abe but refused credit because of respect for Jones
The same actor, Doug Jones, played both sea creatures in The Shape of Water and Hellboy. He plays Saru on Star Trek Discovery. And the monsters in Pan's Labyrinth .
I've always loved this movie. His dad reminds me of my dad and when he died after an emergency surgery. When he was being wheeled into the OR and I said goodbye, trying to appear calm so that he wouldn't be too scared, he told me he was worried about me, because I was alone. A father's love, worried more about me than about himself even at that moment.
13:59 I always though thought it was cool that he was “60” but he’s barely out of his 20’s and you can definitely tell he has such funny immature moments like a 20 year old lol. 41:43 I love this show the fire above his head is a CROWN love the little details I didn’t notice as a kid. 53:10 “the things we do for love Tara” gave me got ptsd 😂
Just as Ryan Reynolds is Deadpool and Robert Downey Jr. is Iron Man, Ron Perlman is Hellboy. I especially love how Ron has a quote they worked into the movie and it works extremely well on multiple levels. It's said through the character Meyers, "We like people for their qualities, but we love them for their imperfections." It's one of my favorite quotes.
"He's from hell but so humanized"... Thats the power of the Pancake... CGI works best when augmenting Practical effects, in the old days some of Hensons practical animatronic masks had amazing mouth and lip movements but CGI can do those sorts of things better. Things like eyes, lip movement, and tiny aspects of detail the practical cant accomplish (or visuals effects that are impossible for practicals) while letting the practical suits, sets, effects deliver the real life presence that ground them and keep them out of the 'oh thats clearly CGI' ... thats when you get perfection, its more expensive than CGI only, and its cheaper than all practical... but why not go for quality!. But so many movies refuse to go the middle ground... and suffer for it. 'Where the Wild Things Are' movie is another one with a great blend of CGi and practical (the CGI was also incredibly simple too, but added so much).
If you like the Hellboy series you really should consider reviewing the two animated movies as well they have the same voice actors for the same characters and they are both very well done and expand on the lore
Yes, yes yes yes. DEFINITELY do the sequel, it's even better than this one! They even got DANNY ELFMAN to do the score on that! It was SUCH a beautiful fit. And yeah, once again, they did as much as they could physically, becuse that's just how Del Toro rolls, even now, and we love him for it.
I hope you guys get to watch the sequel its very underappreciated but the first Hellboy is one of the best comic book adaptations ever it was well written the casting for all the characters was perfect and the directing and sets were phenomenal Guillermo Del Toro is so good
I honestly forget how big the world is, and that just because I have seen something doesn't mean someone else has. So I'm glad you both get to enjoy The Hellboy movie, can't wait for the sequel reaction!
My only critique of the movie is… what story are we following here? Who is the “bad guy”? Hellboy himself? Her? The predator monsters? The hitler guy? The guy opening the portal? The giant tree thing? It just seemed like WAY too many “big bads” for one movie.
Of all the early/mid 2000s comic adaptations they made, the two Guillermo Del Toro Hellboy movies are probably the oddest, but they're also my favorites. I like these movies better than Blade, Xmen, and Raimi Spiderman even, except SM 2
I HOPE U GUYS DO HELLBOY 2!!!! these movies by gdt are incredible and so amazing to watch back when practical effects and cg were actually cared about. so happy u both enjoyed the movie i’m sure you’ll like the second one even more cuz it goes more in depth w the characters and their personalities ☺️💗
That guy who played Rasputin is Czech actor Karel Roden who had played in many USA movies alongside Wesley Snipes (Blade),Chow Yun Fat (Bulletproof Monk),Robert De Niro (15 Minutes),Gerard Butler (RocknRolla) and many more ;)
This is such a great installment, the cast they picked are just perfect, even with the remake with David Harbour, you can't really picture anyone else other than Ron Pearlman as Hellboy lol. And Selma Blair was a great pairing. It's really awful what she's going through now, mother nature is a H.
Hellboy is indepedent comics published by Dark Horse Comics but Mike Mignola, the creator of the Hellboy universe, did try to pitch the character to DC but got rejected.
This was an awesome reaction. Your enthusiasm for the movie was so contagious I was reliving my fond memories of watching this movie as a child. The look of this movie is timeless, everything from the costume design and creature effects to the sets is so beautifully crafted. As a kid I cannot express how fascinated I was by the environments of this movie. It was dark and wet at times, but brightly lit and warm in others. The scene where Rasputin rises from the pool of blood frightened me as a child.
Fun fact: When Myers and Liz caught a cab back to the B.P.R.D she took his picture but it got blown away. She said she'd take another one of him hence why she took his picture on the coffee date.

Ron Perlman as Hellboy. One of the most perfect casting choices ever.
Did you see the story and photos from when Ron went through all the hours in makeup to get dressed up as Hellboy to hang out with a Make-A-Wish kid? Ron's a great guy.
He will always be Hellboy to me.
I can’t get down with the new Hellboy!! No disrespect to David Harbour but Ron Pearlman is and will always be Hellboy to me!!

perlman was great in everything since i first saw him in "The Name of the Rose"
Peter Weller at a comic con probably: "first time?" ;D
@@alexanderdiaz6396Jim Carrey definitely complained though.
The Hellboy II: the Golden Army was such a feast for the eyes. If you like this, you'll love that. Del Toro is such a wonderful world builder. His creations are always so beautifully rendered. Ron Pearlman is also excellent in both. It was a shame we never got the third installment. ☹️
I really like Hellboy 2
I was excited to see the baby and just how their life would be :/
Facts, wish we did have a 3rd one
This and the sequel were two of my fav movies growing up. I’m so upset we’re likely to never see a 3rd one. These movies are incredible
It's kinda sad but the 2 Hellboy movies cover pretty much everything and the 2nd one ends perfectly
@@robbo_96 true but its was also always supposed to be a trilogy...
@@ygkemosabi8280what happened?
@@noelmaldonado7829 think they didnt giver him the budget he wanted... but could be wrong
Ron did such a phenomenal job playing prince Vincent in the 80s tv series Beauty & the Beast, it only makes sense to have him casted as Hellboy.
Doug Jones is the actor in the Abe Sapien costume, and is the same actor in the Shape of Water fishman costume. (The voice of Abe is David Hyde Pierce, who played Niles Crane on Frasier). Jones is currently playing Saru on Star Trek Discovery.
He was also the faun in Pan's Labrynth. ❤
He is my favorite!
He's also the Barron in What We do in the Shadows
Hellboy is good, but the 2nd one is better imo. Golden Army is amazing, this is one of the few series where i thought the 2nd was better then the first. Sad Del toro never did a 3rd one.
Right! I wanted to see their little Hellboy fire babies
Yeah he got the studio bad decision boot. Well we'll just do a reboot. Lame.
Yeh they didnt even ask him first he said, he was never notified till AFTER the reboot was shot.@zionlion14
Dude I was so hype coming out of the theater for Hellboy 3. I thought it was a guarantee sure thing. Still bummed it never happened
I love the 2nd movie!

We honestly took these Hellboy movies for granted.
RON PERLMAN THE ONE AND ONLY TRUE HELLBOY
I can't believe it's 20 years old this year and Spider-Man 2🤯
I remember loving the originals when I was a little boy so much because Ron Pearlman made the the character so endearing and sympathetic without feeling campy or awkward. There was also the perfect balance of exposition enough to keep 8 year old me entertained.
The last time I was this early, Ron Perlman was still a big red demon starring in an incredible film series helmed by a visionary genius.
Ron Pearlman's most iconic role in my opinion. He just slays it.
So excited to see Tara and Andrew react to this movie! Guillermo Del Toro does a great job directing this movie! 👍
Definitely watch part 2.
Imo its the better of the 2.
The mix of practical and CGI SFX is something GDT does so well.
I wish they would watch the 2 and a half hour(!) BTS documentary for Hellboy 2. The granular detail in that movie was astounding! 😮
The '' I'm fireproof, your not! '' is so iconic and cool, love this line!
Hellboy has an amazing design, his big arm is impressive and strong; his short horns are stylish. The make-up is fantastic 🤩
I love and adore Guillermo del Toro's first Hellboy movie I'll never forget my dad showing me it, when I was a kid it was one of the most amazing movies I had ever seen as I was so invested in the characters, story and the mood of the movie it always takes me back such great memories
My kids love it when I showed them when they were little. They’re teenagers now and it’s still one of their favorites.
@Padre_diego_longoose oh, that's really cool it was one of those movie's for me as a kid that I just was just found so cool and interesting so glad it had the same effect on your kids also😎
People forget there is a middle ground between CGI and full scale practical effects: miniatures.
I was thinking when they were talking about the hospital fire "i think miniatures is a lost Hollywood art."
I have to say this is the best reaction channel for me. I love everyone on this channel!
I love hellboy 2, the Golden Army, even more than this one. And i love this one so much.
The thing about Hellboy when he is around with the reason the character works so well especially those two together is that she brings out a vulnerability in him.

Ah yes. The better Hellboy
*BEST!*
Definitely, but i still really enjoyed the new one. The hard R was great and so was David Harbour, but the studio meddling and bad editing did stand out.
But i still have a lot of fun with that movie.
@@MrBoyYankee The best Hellboy. I hope Del Toro decides to do a third someday. I don't think it'll be a drag despite how many Comics there are.
This and The Golden Army are great!
So crazy to think this is twenty years old already!
Gotta love Tara's response to pretty much every one of Andrew's knowledge bombs... " Yah " ( inside she must have been OMG just let me watch movie ).
He does it so much, then misses obvious plot points.
27:30 The flames on her in the bed was a mix of CGI, and an overlaid real flame, The building If I remember right was a model the they blew-up. Del Toro did as much practical for this move as he could get away with.

It's time for The Golden Army!
Ron Perlman did say He wants to do a Hellboy 3
Y'all becoming my favorite duo on here. Just wait for Hellboy 2 it's literally one of the best comic book movies of all time
Guillermo Del Toro is one of the best directors and visionary of all time. Period. Stop. PERIOD. I was really bummed how poorly these films did at the box office. The sets, the cinematography, the sound design, the direction, THE CAST! Hellboy is the only Darkhorse comic I’ve read and I’ll be honest I’ve read very little. There is such…. Whimsy to this that I never really expected. I’m getting overwhelmed like it’s my first time watching it seeing you two react! There are a lot of onions in here.
I hope you react to the sequel on here!! 🖤🖤
Great Reaction! I really want you guys to do Hellyboy 2: The Golden Army!
love this film! i can’t believe it will be celebrated their 20th anniversary to this film directed by guillermo del toro 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Ron Perlman Was Disappointed Never Got Called Back In HellBoy In 2019 I Agree I met him at comic con really nice man
Del Toro was robbed by the studio for his 3rd Hellboy film. Another prime example of a studio making a dumbass decision.
Happy 20th anniversary for Hellboy!! Love this film and the sequel. Please do a reaction on the Hellboy The Golden Army
I loved the Blade trilogy and all these Hellboy movies ! So good imo but to each their own.
Doug Jones is the “fish guy” and plays essentially the same character in Shape of Water too.
Also plays the Pale Man in Pans Labyrinth as well as many other characters that require heavy prosthetics.
Do you recognize the guy who plays Abe Sapien? No but it is Doug Jones and HE'S A LEGEND whenever there's an iconic freaky tall monster or creature it's usually him - same for Shape of Water
Yo! I fucking love Hellboy, both of them. We ain’t gonna acknowledge 2019. But this movie I was obsessed with. I watch it 22 times over a three day weekend when it came out on dvd.

Do give Pan's Labyrinth a watch.

Red skull is based of real life Rasputin in the Hellboy comic he is strait up inspired by red skull
Yes!
I liked this movie and it's Sequel!
I just wish Guillermo Del Toro and Ron Perlman would make more HellBoy movies.
A reboot starring David Harbour was released in 2019, but it was not well received by critics or fans, and it's now deemed to be one of the worst comic book movies ever made.
I never understood the hate for the new one. I livestreamed it with my streaming audience in discord to watch for the first time and no one present said they didn't enjoy it. It's obviously not Ron Perlman but I really liked it.
There are also some Hellboy animated movies that have the original cast as voices (Ron Perlman, Selma Blair, Doug Jones). They are pretty good also.
What's another Comic Book you'd like to see Guillermo Del Toro take on??
Spawn
Batman where he fights scarecrow
Monstress
Chronicle
He would do an amazing Midnight Sons movie.
Pan's Labyrinth was a great movie by Del Toro.
Yeah that ones dope
Was looking for this comment!!
Yup, they need to watch it asap
YES!
Love it❤

I love all of Mr. Guillermo Del Toro’s films ❤ I recommend Pan’s Labyrinth, that film is just ❤❤❤❤❤ beautiful.
This is one of my all-time favorite superhero movies. The love story between Liz and Red is amazing. You’ve gotta see the sequel!
You gotta see Pan’s Labyrinth.

I love both the Hellboy movies. My first car was a red mercury cougar named Hellboy. I even had a BPRD logo sticker on it. Hellboy rules.
Definitely want to see you guys watch the sequel but also the animated movies, Blood and Iron is so terrifying
Just as Ryan Reynolds is Deadpool and Robert Downey Jr. is Iron Man, Ron Perlman is Hellboy. I especially love how Ron has a quote they worked into the movie and it works extremely well on multiple levels. It's said through the character Meyers, "We like people for their qualities, but we love them for their imperfections." It's one of my favorite quotes.

They really nailed Hellboy, in every area. Hellboy 2 is my personal favourite, due to Luke Goss, he's so damn good.
Tara's cool english accent and Andrew's John Blackthorne. All class you guys 👏🏿🫡
I highly recommend watching the 2nd movie.
I personally think it's better than the 1st.
I grew up with this movie, i love it so much
Yes, yes yes yes. DEFINITELY do the sequel, it's even better than this one! They even got DANNY ELFMAN to do the score on that! It was SUCH a beautiful fit. And yeah, once again, they did as much as they could physically, becuse that's just how Del Toro rolls, even now, and we love him for it.

the actor who plays Abe is the same guy from the other fish movie!!! 🙌
Definitely gonna have to do the second one. Splits a lot of people as to which film is better but I think we can all agree both films are superb 🤘
I love Selma Blair's role of liz
This is such a great installment, the cast they picked are just perfect, even with the remake with David Harbour, you can't really picture anyone else other than Ron Pearlman as Hellboy lol. And Selma Blair was a great pairing. It's really awful what she's going through now, mother nature is a H.
Selma Blair was definitely a great casting choice, she made the character rememberable
I love this movie and Ron Perlman is one of the greatest casting choices for a comic adaptation ever
The hellboy comics are mt favorite ever. None of the movies capture the tone but I still enjoy these first two anyway
Hellboy is indepedent comics published by Dark Horse Comics but Mike Mignola, the creator of the Hellboy universe, did try to pitch the character to DC but got rejected.
This was an awesome reaction. Your enthusiasm for the movie was so contagious I was reliving my fond memories of watching this movie as a child. The look of this movie is timeless, everything from the costume design and creature effects to the sets is so beautifully crafted. As a kid I cannot express how fascinated I was by the environments of this movie. It was dark and wet at times, but brightly lit and warm in others.
The scene where Rasputin rises from the pool of blood frightened me as a child.
14:21 that’s the man of steel Superman, both the real superman’s dads wanted him to be a hero.
You guys have GOTTA watch Hellboy 2
I think burning down the asylum was a practical effect, but miniature.
Hellboy The Golden Army and the later remake are both great you should see both of them you'll be happy 😅
Fun fact you can see the same spear of destiny prop they used in constantine when Myers is going to meet helboy.
Abe Sapien has my heart & i will not apologise!
Fun fact: When Myers and Liz caught a cab back to the B.P.R.D she took his picture but it got blown away. She said she'd take another one of him hence why she took his picture on the coffee date.
I know Tara hasn't seen the Seed of Chucky yet but I'm just saying I know y'all hear the similarity I hear with her accent impression lol
