Cool Trailer (Sin City)

Never read the comic, never heard that they were making a movie about it, but this trailer looks pretty interesting.

H/t to Petite Dove.

You've never read Sin City?! You disappoint me greatly. Your geek credentials are hereby revoked!

Yawn...zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

How bad can it be? It's got Mickey Rourke AND Jessica Alba.

Ham and cheesecake, in one delicious meal.

Cheers,

Jessica Alba may in fact be the hottest woman alive.

Good God.

Jessica is also playing Sue Strorm in the up coming Fantastic Four movie.

Ace, my pal, run, don't walk and read Sin City before you run and don't walk to see the movie. Frank Miller certainly has the goods.

Posted by: David on January 17, 2005 11:49 AM

Brass: WHAT?!? Don't get me wrong, Jessica Alba is very, VERY, hot, but Susan Richards she ain't.

Posted by: madne0 on January 17, 2005 11:55 AM

I agree, but she is actually playing Sue Storm, girlfriend to Reed Richards. Also, Ben Grimm is being played by the guy from the Shield.

David,

Let me ask you this:

Will I get full value on the comic?

Posted by: ace on January 17, 2005 02:41 PM

Seems to be another movie done mostly or entirely in front of a blue screen. I hope it's impressive. I'm probably not interested in seeing it, but I hope it does well, if only to boost that kind of filmmaking further.

Posted by: Russell Wardlow on January 17, 2005 04:28 PM

Oh, and Jessica Alba is a ditzy no-talent trollop.

Posted by: Russell Wardlow on January 17, 2005 04:29 PM

Brass: Sue Storm is Susan Richards maiden name.

Posted by: madne0@hotmail.com on January 17, 2005 05:44 PM

Thanks madneo, I was just pointing out that she's not married in this one so we can expect a sequel.

Posted by: Brass on January 17, 2005 05:53 PM

I don't particularly like the female leads in the film. They are all pretty much unremarkable actors. However, i think specifically for a movie that is being adopted from a comic book this might not be such a bad thing. Contact Joshua if you want to see a longer (more impressive) snippet of the movie (highly recomended).

Posted by: Petitedov on January 18, 2005 12:02 AM

The funny thing is that Abla's a blonde in the FF movie, but the guy playing Sue's blond-haired brother Johnny is a brunette. Anyway, the Sin City movie probably won't be very good, but it'll be cool to see Mickey Rourke chopping Elijah Wood's arms and legs off. Oops, did I give it away?

Posted by: Jim Treacher on January 18, 2005 12:43 AM

Jeez. In Return of the King he only lost half a finger.

Ami Kozak: Every single Tucker Carlson episode consists of him claiming he didn't say the things he said in the last episode
Also: this is the manipulation Tucker does that i hate the most. It's so cowardly. All he does is smear people (and Jews, generally), and then claim "I have nothing against [the person or group I just smeared.]" He'll even claim "I love [x], actually." Just again and again and again. It's all a lie, of course. A year ago he smeared Jews but added how beautiful he thought Israel was, and then two weeks ago, he said Israel is ugly as dog-shit and nothing beautiful has been built there "since 1948."
Just got this email from Dracula: "I love Van Helsing, actually, he's one of my personal heroes, if I'm being honest. I will claw the heart out of his belly and bathe in his blood before the children of Babylon, but I have nothing but respect for Van Helsing, actually. Love is the answer. Except for the followers of the Christ whom I am commanded to turn into my dark army of Satan. And I totally don't worship Satan, I just think we should listen to both sides. Hugs and kisses, may Van Helsing burn in the blood-red fires of hell throughout eternity, even though I consider him a close and dear friend, Vlad called Dracul."
