Have you seen El Laberinto del Fauno? That won me over to GDT for good. The understanding of fairy-tale which he demonstrates in that film and in its special features is extraordinary.

Yes indeedy, although I saw it in English and was wowed by it. The film website has some interesting comments about his thoughts on fairy as well. Del Toro's participation is the one thing that gives me hope for The Hobbit.
