this juxtaposition of this weekend's top two movies is just funny:

1. The Passion of the Christ, $17 million
2. Hellboy, $11.1 million

i think it's time for mel gibson and ron perlman to have a showdown. i'm pretty sure i know who would win.

by the way, i was part of that 11.1 million intake for hellboy this weekend. i hadn't read the comic books, but tommy had convinced me that it looked awesome, so he and and kriston and i went to check it out. i thought it was pretty good, though the ending felt rushed and disjointed. but ron perlman and selma blair were excellent. i'm sure tommy has more insightful things to say about the movie if he so wishes, so i'll stop pretending i know anything about movie comic book adaptations.
