Good call strangler.

I've read the sin city books but none of frank miller's other books.

I want to bad.

And, I'm definately seeing this movie on opening weekend. I've been drooling over this movie for a while. gah

Recently read The Dark Knight Returns. Might have Klaus Janson as one of my professors in the fall. *cross fingers*

As for the movie, just wanna be sure I read everything it's based on. Are these the only ones or are there more of the shorter shorties in it too?

- The Customer Is Always Right
- The Hard Goodbye
- The Big Fat Kill
- That Yellow Bastard

I pretty much read everything including the shorter stories except for Family Values and Hell and Back.

um, I guess I didnt make myself clear...

Style wise...the way the movie looks like moving comic book. That's how I wanted to labell it the 'modernized Dick Tracy'

I know nothing about the story or premise of Sin City, and I never pretended to...

This movie not only looks good, but Jessica Alba is in there... I'd do anything to Jessica Alba... *erm* I mean, I'd do anything for Jessica Alba...

I love the cast so I am definitely watching it...

Josh Hartnett!! *hyperventilates*
Bruce Wilis!! *hyperventilates*
Jessica Alba!! *hyperventilates*
Devon Aoki!! *hyperventilates*

I think you get my drift

Too bad it only comes out in May for us here. Love the song in the trailer, makes me want to grab my air guitar and scare the hell out of the boyfriend

I own the Dark Knight Returns...and it is fantastic. Probably my favorite comic novel that I have ever read. I was hooked from the moment I read the introduction. It sent shills down my spine.

I havn't heard of those other books Strangler, but I'm definatly going to hit ebay and look for them.

And yeah...Jessica Alba is one of the sexiest women on earth.

Just so you guys know, The Watchmen (a quality/legendary graphic novel I pointed out before) is now in pre-production, accoreding to IMDB, with a budget estimated at over $100,000,000.

This makes me happy

Just saw the movie. It's pretty ridiculous. Entertaining throughout definitely. Elijah Wood rules...
