@raphaeltrumpetsound Yeah, kinda like how they did it in HPLHS version of Call of Cthulhu. Although, he's not some all powerful god or anything. He doesn't even try to destroy our world. He doesn't even care about us. His role is to basically sleep entombed here on Earth, until the stars are right. Then, he has his cult release him. Then, he in turn releases all of the Great Old Ones (the real "evil gods"). Cthulhu is just the Great Old Ones high priest and gopher...go for this, go for that.

Mr. Del Toro please claim full artistic freedom or it will be shit...You are the only person that I would allow to touch my IP's...
-
@SkyCE9A He is the one who awakens and we cease to exist...I agree that showing the Elder in anything other than the carving would destroy the entire Horror of it All...You can't imagine the unimaginable...And if does show him...the film should end abruptly with no clear view....

It sounds like Del Toro is taking a Silent Hill approach to this film, what with all the whites and the hazes. That makes sense, I guess, considering Silent Hill is pretty much late 20th century Lovecraft. Maybe there's some John Carpenter in there too.
Whatever Del Toro decides to do, I support him all the way. The man's a genius!

@cheyyen Exactly, he is not in the story except being mentioned in a carved history of the Elder Things on the wall that the main character looks at briefly. To just dump Cthulu into the story to appease all of these stupid fanatics would ruin it and would be a slap in the face to HPL. I'm amazed at how many people love Cthulu, and yet know NOTHING about the character and how he actually fits into the whole HPL universe/mythos.

@lexgeryon It better NOT be Cthulu, because he is NOT in the story. He hardly even has a place in this story, besides the brief history we learn about the Elder Things in this story fighting against the Star Spawn of Cthulu millions and millions of years ago. Cthulu is deep at the bottom of the ocean, entombed at R'lyeh "sleeping" when this story takes place.
Besides, Cthulu is not even one of the big boys in the cosmic scheme, he's just a head priest for the Great Old Ones.

@lexgeryon no, Cthulu is not in that story

Увы, ожидание откладывается на неопределённый срок: юнивёрсалы "зарезали", как известно, проект. И теперь его будущее туманно. Впрочем, я этот фильм жду уже, наверное, около десяти лет - с тех пор, как Дель Торо заявил о намерении заняться экранизацией.
By the way, to all saying Cthulhu has no place in the movie in question - everything is fine (well, as fine as it may be, considering that the film is once again put on shelf - oh, bloody studio bosses): there will be no such deity in the film.
