On Comic Con:
"Comic-Con is a celebration of pop culture - anime, sci-fi films, horror, anything that is within the scope of geek culture and is interesting for them. It's paradise. I normally try to travel with an empty suitcase, and then I end up coming home with a suitcase and four or five boxes filled with stuff."
On Walking Away From The Hobbit:
"It was the biggest heartbreak I have experienced professionally, but at the same time it was what I needed to do because it was not a decision that was taken lightly. I am entirely at peace with it. I was very blessed to be immersed in that world, and equally excited about being out working in the other films coming up."
On His Next "Secret" Project:
"I'll be announcing something right after Comic Con because we are finalizing a deal during Comic Con. It's a big announcement for me, the biggest movie I've done, and it's a very cherished property, but I think we'll find out very soon."
So, a "cherished property"? I've heard many a comic book character referred to as just that! Could this be the announcement we've all been waiting for? Will Del Toro direct Doctor Strange!?! Speculate in the usual place guys!
