Hellboy 3

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

Perlman wants it and Del Toro has a plan, but it's a long shot.

Second one sucked. The entire Hellboy-Liz thing in this series is fucked.

I liked it okay. Not as much as the first, but that's not unusual.

If they drop the dumb-ass idea of the half-demonic twins from the last one, sure. Hellboy 2 should've been over in about 10 minutes. Stupid plot.

Perlman is really pushing for this sequel.

Del Toro's gone on record saying the financial hurdles aren't going away.
It's a very interesting ending to the series, but I don't think it will happen.
...
The story repeated itself with the second already, it made its money back at the box office, but a small margin of profit in the release of the theatrical print, but was very very big on DVD and video. Sadly now from a business point of view all the studios know is that you don't have that safety net of the DVD and video, so they view the project as dangerous.

Creatively, I would love to make it. Creatively. But it is proven almost impossible to finance. Not from MY side, but from the studio side. If I was a multimillionaire, I would finance it myself, but I spend all my money on rubber monsters.

Dead.

Perlman sounded like he was in.
