Too bad Will Eisner isn't around to see this...:(:(:(

Hope this movie is good...

Wow, looks exactly like Sin City, just like Eisner originally envisioned.

Yeah, kinda what I was thinking. :lol:

The style of Sin City was interesting in its own right, but I'm actually very disappointed that Eisner, god of the comic book, is getting "the Frank Miller treatment." Not that I detest Miller's (drawn) work, but this is unnecessary. It's inappropriate. And to be honest, it looks a little stupid. Potentially enjoyable perhaps, but in a comedic sort of way. Like they need go back in with their special effects team to make his rooftop running look less ridiculous for starters.

My thoughts exactly. Not really looking forward to this.

I'm the god-damn Spirit.

Tragic, but I eat up anything by Miller. Definatly not the best interpretation of The Spirit, but we dont live in an industry that "gets" something like that, so they turn to the guy that can make it "understandable" to them.
