I enjoyed the sexy fish man movie. I was surprised that they outright confirmed that she hosed the fish man.

Also this had so many great character actors in it! I kind of feel sorry for Michael Shannon because he has Willem Dafoe face and seems to always play creeps.

The actor’s name is Michael Shannon. Strickland is the last name of the character he plays.

Someone else called him Rappaport which is really funny to imagine

Universal must be pissed that after years of trying and failing to get the Dark Universe crap going, GDT went and made a Creature from the Black Lagoon movie that will inevitably be better than anything they manage.

I think I read that they actually turned his idea for a CFtBL movie down.

Pan's Labyrinth is his best that I've seen and Pacific Rim is the most fun but this is definitely high quality Del Toro.

Anybody have any thoughts on Michael Shannon's sex scene with his wife, and the purpose of it in the scope of the story? The movie seems to work to show women as sexual: the masturbation scenes, Elisa pursuing the fishman, and Mike Shannon's wife initiating sex.

I'm just not sure if that is the purpose of the scene, or if I'm missing something else.

It's supposed to show that he gets off on women being silent.
