This is good with Pan's Labyrinth being his Cinderella story and The orphanage being his peter pan story this seems like this could be great

He is the Spanish Tim Burton and there is no doubt... he is following in the man's strange little foot steps.

Its cool and all but if he isnt directing it then I dont care awhole lot. Producing and assisting with the screen play is all well and good but its eye for camera work and directing his ideas onto screen that I like.
