Slash Film have done it again, finding a choice cut from another site's story.

In this instance, they've spotted a gem buried in Rotten Tomatoes Guillermo del Toro video interview - the big man's brilliant reason for turning down Se7en.

GdT said: “I rightfully said no to Se7en, because it was a great script but it was a very cynical view of the world. And I loved it, I wanted to see it, but I’m a romantic, fat bastard and I don’t subscribe to that view.”

Genius. Follow the links above for the full story, then shut your eyes and imagine what a del Toro Se7en would look like. And who Ron Perlman would've played.
