Hellboy 3 or Pacific Rim 2?

Should he get the budget necessary to make a follow-up to either of the big-budget films he's now most associated with, with sequels in talks for both, which would you prefer if it could only be one or the other: Hellboy 3 or Pacific Rim 2?

Personally, I am overwhelmingly in favour of Hellboy 3. He's promised it would involve Hellboy bringing the apocalypse to Earth. I'd like to see Idris Elba cancel that.

That said, I'd rather still see his Pinocchio or Frankenstein films take light (particularly if the latter involves Benedict Cumberbatch, as rumoured), or something else small/intimate/far more - I hate to say it, but the comparison is inevitable - Pan's-y, but Hellboy 3 would make me a pretty happy camper.

I enjoyed Pacific Rim greatly but I'd much rather see a third Hellboy because to me that franchise has always felt like it was intended to be a trilogy. Plus Ron Perlman said GdT's idea for the third was amazing.
