I don't recall ever hearing when someone 'beat' Everquest or other MMORPGs. Is there anything different about WoW, did those other stories happen years ago and I don' recall them, or is it just a SND (slow news day?

Meh. I was really hoping to enjoy Hellboy II as I was a big fan of the original. I thought it was funny, had some decent action, and some interesting characters.
Those three things are back in the sequel but unfortunately there were a few too many corners cut to make this work for me.
First there is the acting. Ron Pearlman is great, Selma Blair and Doug Jones are downright terrible. I blame this on Del Toro not speaking english natively because otherwise he would have heard how stiff and bland they delivered all their lines. Don't get me started on Seth McFamilyGuy. He was the complete wrong choice for that character.
Second, the giant plot holes are what really ruined this movie for me. I knew there were going to be problems right from the start of the tooth fairy scene where each and every bland BPRD agent is eaten up without any of the baddies even beginning to swarm on any of the main characters. I'm sorry, I'm not buying it! Then the movie got along pretty well until the Golden Army chamber. First Abe basically stabs everyone in the back for practically no reason. And after it happens it is never brought up again. Nobody asks why, nobody even seems to care! Stupid! Also, it was absolutely stupid that Hellboy and Johann take on the golden army while Liz and Abe just stand there looking bored. They wouldn't try to help? The golden army wouldn't bother to try to attack them? Why too much went wrong in this scene for me to suspend my disbelief.
The more I think about it the more things start to bug me and now I'm just depressed about the movie so I guess I'll call it quits now.
And the music sucked.
It's a naive, domestic operating system without any breeding, but I think you'll be amused by its presumption.
