Absolutely. Keep the budget small. Let del Toro go as dark as he wants. It won't set the box office alight but should make a profit. And Hellboy get's to complete his destiny.

Think they need to concentrate on a few more seasons of Reacher before cashing in on spinoffs. It's the almost comically infallible nature of Reacher's martial prowess that's the main focus of the Reacher novels. Neagley doesn't have that attribute. Having said that it's clear that ever since he let his brother take up the pen Child's focus is clearly on film and tv adaptations.

Have to agree with Dune. Villeneuve is probably two thirds of the way to having the greatest Sci-Fi trilogy of all time. Bladerunner 2049 is my favourite dystopian Sci-Fi. I prefer it to the original. Arrival and Sicario are both great films that revolve around strong female lead actors. Prisoners is bleakly chilling. While I haven't seen his first two films.
