SWIPE!!! from adayinthelife: sin city
http://www.aint-it-cool-news.com/display.cgi?id=19700
this may well be the most enthusiastic movie review i’ve ever seen.
This is completely unlike anything you’ve seen in theaters. It’s the greatest ShockSuspense Story ever told… Each panel stripped down and saturated. This isn’t reality, this isn’t down the corner. The dialogue isn’t realistic, it’s just the way it oughta be. SIN CITY is populated with the subconscious “id”-heroes of Pulp. This is the umpteenth vision of a Meyer-esque dystopian paradise of decaying grandeur and decadence. The characters spout – no erupt with the sort of high living and dying dialogue that gods speak before killing and fucking. You know – the gods that played on silver screens before we started aching to see our own pathetic excuses for lives up there instead. No self-referential post-modern flair… this… this is filled with dialogue for Cagney, Bogie and Edward G. And Mickey Rourke, Bruce Willis and Clive Owen relish every line.
I’ve been wet to see this since I saw the trailer. If I have to wait much beyond Saturday, there’ll be some hurtin’ on someone.
Just sayin’.
well, we’re not going till the 1st…so you’d have to go without me…is it even opening here this weekend?
Let me rephrase my statement…If I have to wait much beyond seein it with Terri…etc., etc.
Did you read the review?
Just that little snippet. I am very much not a review reader. I’ve wanted to see it since first seeing the previews/promo posters, though. And it’s got Bruce AND Benicio. Awww yeah.
Frank Miller is a god.
It’s been years since I read SC, but the trailer already makes me salivate…
I first saw it, oh i guess a month ago. I’ve been barely supressing the urge to go to Rodriguez’s house and demand some instant gratification.
Gimme movie!
Instant gratification is good.
Oh…you’re talking about the movie.
*snrkt*
*laugh* Of course I’m talking about the movie!
I’ve had a non-stop erection since I first saw the trailer. All I gots to say is that the movie BETTER be in black and white with those little snippets of color. Like Jessica Alba, who needs to come over, cook mexican food for the family, then give us all oral gratification.
I love her.
Can I come too?
Umm..lemme rephrase that…
you can always come with me baby 😉
