Default Re: Sin City Trailer

I just officially nut myself...

You don't understand. Frank Miller's Sin City is probably the single greatest comic/graphic novel I've ever read. I hold it above even the legendary Watchmen series.

And the whole time I read his books all I could say to myself is how great a movie this would make. The art in the books is pure cinematic genius and beautiful film noire. I can't recomend them any more highly. If you haven't read them... READ THEM. The first is the best.

The movie version looks AMAZING. They've kept true, to the point of being almost indentical even in the purposeful choice of color, to the books.

My only criticism is that it looks like they're combining several of Miller's Sin City graphic novels into one movie. I hope they can pull it off effectively as a single film.

EDIT: I have to watch that trailer again. DAMN.
