1. Whichever relies on CGI less. *can't believe he just said that*

2. That would be "The Punisher"
So I stand by my original vote. :)

9. Hellboy is played by the flesh-and-blood Ron Perlman
Guillermo del Toro said hiring Ron Perlman to play Hellboy in make-up raised the movie's budget $30 million over just using a CGI Hellboy. But he fought for the privilege anyway, and in the end, predictably, Perlman was worth every penny. And after seeing the ads for this movie, I agree.

This fight is Hellboy's to the finish. I can't wait for the film to come out. And I never even read the stupid comic.

10. The only makeup in "The Punisher"...
...is body makeup, on Rebecca Romjin-Stamos, one hopes. :silly:

3. Hellboy. Anyone who fights Nazis.
Nazis make the best movie villains. I'm 35 and I can't believe that I'm actually looking forward to seeing Hellboy.

4. I dunno...
I think I'll be taking real pleasure in seeing John Travolta getting his ass beat.

6. Yeah...
Anytime I'm watching a movie with really lame villins I can't help but think: "Man, there have got to be some frozen Nazis somewhere that they could have defrosted for this..."

5. I don't understand the voting trend...
Hellboy came from hell, while The Punisher creates his own hell. That wins it every time, for me.

7. I dunno, I wanna see both but I saw the preview for Punisher
and it didnt look as good as I thought. I'll still see it, but Hellboy looks a little more interesting at the moment. I like the new punisher comic though.

8. Find newer previews of "The Punisher" online
Agreed, the first trailer got bad buzz -- so it's been reedited to look MUCH better. Check em out.

11. I was always a big fan of Punisher
Edited on Thu Mar-25-04 06:54 AM by DS1
It has a gritty reality that Hellboy lacks, like Batman but armed like Rambo

on edit: and more pissed off!
