Trivia:
Rupert Evans (Agent John Myers from the first film) couldn't reprise his role due to his casting in a stage version of Kiss of the Spider Woman (2007) in London and was written out of the sequel. moreGoofs:
Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): When Johann speaks German it is generally nonsense, and sometimes the grammar is incorrect. moreQuotes:
[first lines]Professor Trevor 'Broom' Bruttenholm: Son, would you please turn off that wretched puppet?
Young Hellboy: He's not a puppet! Howdy Doody's real!
Professor Trevor 'Broom' Bruttenholm: Well, it's time for Mr. Dee-dee Doo-doo to say good night.

What is it about super-hero films (X-Men 2, Spiderman 2, Superman II, and likely The Dark Knight) that the best of them are always the middle chapter; the second episode? I personally have no clue, but Hellboy II is not the exception.
It's got bigger action; more heavily stylized and expansive. It has a ton more amazing creatures. It's got an even wittier script, and a much better story. It's like the director was allowed to make everything as he saw fit; his vision is much fuller this time around.
Surprisingly, this movie rocks, and was actually the first film this year I was all around satisfied by.
