Is it just me, or does it look a bit too similar to Sin City?

But hey, looks pretty interesting.

When I saw the teaser at Ironman, I totally thought it was for Sin City 2.

My friend actually yelled "SIN CITY 2, ****ING FINALLY"

He didn't say much else the rest of the night.

Well, it is from Frank Miller after all.

I love that visual style.

Meh.

Besides the recent films, Miller's work as of late has been pretty shitty. All Star Batman is an embarrassment.

 

[Sliver]

He is still excused for all that, because he created The Dark Knight Returns.

When I was in the theater, I too thought it was Sin City 2, also.

The movie will be in color though, but yeah that sin city style is definitely seen in the trailer.

Hope he does the comic justice.

Only ever read the Sin City graphic novels, but I was mostly referring to his art-style.

I can agree that I loved the Sin City art, but I hope he's not recycling it for Spirit.

Although, on his blog on superherohype, he said the whole movie is in color, despite the trailer, so...

Is what we see in the teaser going to be what the final product looks like?

I am unfamiliar with the comic but I've heard it isn't like Sin City.

Not quite...

Yeah, I knew it was quite colorful. As much as I liked Sin City(comics and movie) I really hope Miller just used that style for the teaser.

 

[kineaesth]

Wow that looks gay.

Trailer was awesome.

So I just read Miller's blog, and he said that that the film will be in full color, as Adrik stated, and that it will retain the elements of humor mixed with noir that were in the original Eisner strips.

yay.

New Poster:

Oh yeah, for those who were wondering, here is the old poster:

The only thing im worried about is the octopus (Villain being played by Samuel Jackson). In the comic you never saw his face, he just wore white gloves all the time. Im pretty sure they're just going to go ahead and show his face throughout the movie.
