Hellboy meets Chuck - VIDEO
In an effort to promote Hellboy II: The Golden Army, Universal Pictures is releasing a series of strange and humorous commercials. The first involved James Lipton interviewing Hellboy. Not Ron Perlman, but the character of Hellboy himself. The second has Hellboy meeting the title character from NBC’s Chuck (and I love how Ron Perlman’s character refers to Zachary Levi’s character as “Chucky”).
Hellboy is being distributed by Universal and since Universal and NBC are the same entity, I can understand how a crossover between the two is possible. I do wonder if there will be any promotion for the movie when the new season of Chuck begins. Probably not, since the film will have already left the theaters. Still, a Ron Perlman appearance as any character on the show would be kind of cool.
The patter between the two is great as they play video games. The question of “why doesn’t the government let us out more often” is hilarious.

“Good Never Looked So Bad!”
…says the voice over man on the third and possibly final trailer for Hellboy 2: The Golden Army. As usual it looks weird and wonderful, and I believe some monster and creature lovers would call it a visual orgasm.
Around the 1 minute mark some music starts to kick in, which was also used in a trailer for Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer. This inevitably started to get me thinking about Jessica Alba and I have no idea what happens in the last 40 seconds of the trailer. This is why movies shouldn’t use the same trailer music!
Hellboy 2: Third Movie Trailer and Animated Prologue
Universal has released a third and final movie trailer for Guillermo del Toro’s Hellboy II: The Golden Army.

They have also released the animated prologue which opens the film on Apple.com. As always, tell me what you think in the comments below!
