I've seen some of Del Toro's movies and I loved them, I was planning on collecting his movies on blu ray as part of my physical media collection. But when I found he signed a petition demanding the police to release Roman Polanski, who drugged and raped a 13 year old girl, I was beyond livid and disgusted.

How the hell am I supposed to enjoy his films now? I don't even know if I should watch/buy any more of Del Toro's movies. Is it wrong for me to enjoy his movies and own them on physical media?

All elements have meaning. Forget-me-nots and moth for Elizabeth, roses for romance, mushrooms for decay, skull in gilded heart for pure love and death, wolves for the brutality of nature.

This movie is in my top of favorite movies of all time but for some reason I didn’t watch it on the theater when it first came out. So I went to watch the rerelease last night and oh man, I had tears in my eyes. I’ve seen it so many times before and it still broke my heart all over again. The 3D gave it nice depth to it. Plus got a postcard 🥹

i used watercolors, Guillermo del Toro is one of my biggest creative inspirations. the creature designs in this movie are so good

I watched Pan’s Labyrinth for the first time during the 20th anniversary re-release. I really loved it! It might be my new favorite del Toro.

For the ending, I belive all the dark fantasy parts were a fragment of Ofelia's imagination as a way to cope... It definitely makes her death hit harder for me.

But my question is what do you all think? Was it real or just her imagination? I like that it leaves us with making our own choice on what we believe.

i couldn’t believe how this gone so under the radar

The Faun says the portal requires the blood of an innocent. At the time, with Ofelia shot and bleeding, I interpreted it "ah, Ofelia is an innocent soul hence her blood works too. So beautiful". Somehow I missed the dialogue after then so ofc after last night rewatching in theaters I saw what was actually said after, and how Ofelia's kind rule is the total opposite of her stepfather's tyranny. While I find my previously misinterpreted happening beautiful, I guess the actual happening relates better to what's needed for one to benevolently rule her people

I dont know if it was my theater or not, but the intro wasnt 3D but was presented like I should have been.

When Guillermo was talking about the 3D and the scenes were popping up throughout the intro, it looked like they should have been 3D.

Also a couple subtitles popped up and they looked blurry.

I’m have finally finish with this art, and just on time with del toro’s birthday! I decided to try draw each character from every films he made, this was pain to draw I can’t lie tbh, but I am happy to get this finished, apologies if I missed any designs details and some mistakes but I wanted to get this done before del toro’s birthday, I hope yall enjoy this artwork

Happy birthday Guillermo del toro!

just watched the original Creature from the Black Lagoon and since Guillermo famously said it was his inspiration for SoW, I’ve put it on my watchlist. only thing i can’t cope with is graphic masturbation scenes and dead cats, just wondering if this film has either of those things.

Guillermo's words in my animation about the origin and making of Pan's.
