Guillermo Del Toro Talks About 'Hellboy III' Plot, Magic And Barry Manilow

There's an embarrassment of riches this summer for fans of comic books, who on any given day can see Batman, Iron Man, Hulk and even Angelina Jolie kicking butt and taking names. But while all these are good (or great) films, none come even remotely close to being half as fun as "Hellboy II: The Golden Army."

Spend any time with director Guillermo del Toro, as MTV News did recently, and it's clear that the joy starts at the top.

Del Toro, who for the next four years will reside in Middle-earth as director of "The Hobbit" and its companion film (check out his answers to fans' questions about those movies), told us what you can find in his tape deck (hint: it rhymes with Marry Banilow), what his plans are for "Hellboy III," how Hellboy would fare in a fight with Batman, why the world would be a better place if everyone believed in magic, and more.
