Just go watch The Devil's Backbone, Pan's Labyrinth, The Orphanage, and comme back to tell me he only does "popcorn" movies again and there's no reason to be excited.


Add to it Mimick and Cronos both highly underrated movies IMO.

OP: that has to be the most generalized view on Del Toro's lifework ever. You are crying commercial, and all the "horror" element you cand find in his movies where in Blade 2 and the creature design in PL.  Its obvious that you only focused on his moneymaker movies, just to make a point, or you are making a terribly wrong, illimford point.

 

Either way it was a substandard try to downplay a game from which we have only seen a teaser thus far...

You clearly are not reading my original post and see what you want to, must be nice. How is it generalized? I named every horror movie he has made Chronos,Backbone,Mimic were all mentioned. Are you mad I didnt menion some bullshit short film that he did that no one has seen? Oh yeah, Mimic as cookie cutter as you can get for horror movies and is rated as such.


If you count Mimic as a cookie-cutter horror movie, that tells everything what you know about the creature-feature genre. You are obviously not a fan of horror and several of its subgenres as you trow around generalized notions, similar to how TV Programs do.

I clearly read your first post, and everything you wrote is baseless. Like it or not I seem many other users echoing my opinion... The fact is del Torro is among the best mainstream movie directors and Kojima is one of the best Japanese developers should be more then enough to grab your attention.
