 Guillermo del Toro’s New Yorker profile article Just as a Renaissance painter relished the challenge of rendering the Crucifixion, a true monster-maker wants to take on the icons. http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2011 ... ntPage=all

Re: Guillermo del Toro’s New Yorker profile article Truly an excellent read!
I love GDT!
The part where they were talking about the team of artists he assembled (including Guy Davis and Wayne Barlow) to brainstorm on Old Ones and Shoggoth designs was really intriguing... I would LOVE to see the Barlow Cthulhu sketch they mention!

Re: Guillermo del Toro’s New Yorker profile article What a great article! I really hope he gets the green light for Madness. And the last paragraph of the note was the perfect ending! Although I watched it probably more than 15 years ago, Cronos is one of my favorite movies, I thought it was great and didn't even know who Del Toro was until like 10 years after.

Re: Guillermo del Toro’s New Yorker profile article That is true as well, but worth reading. Ghost&Flower wrote: That article was really long.

Re: Guillermo del Toro’s New Yorker profile article Anyone reading his Strain Trilogy books? I'm about halfway through "The Fall." Although co-written by Chuck Hogan the books definitely have a screenplay/cinematic sort of feel. It's intentionally pulp material but what Del Toro does with vampire mythology is pretty cool. It's not high literature by any means, but lots of fun as entertaining reading.
Thanks for posting the link to the article. New Yorker profiles tend to rule.
