There are no 'knowns'. There are thing we know that we know. There are known unknowns. That is to say there are things that we now know we don't know. But there are also unknown unknowns. There are things we don't know we don't know. So when we do the best we can and we pull all this information together, and we then say well that's basically what we see as the situation, that is really only the known knowns and the known unknowns. And each year, we discover a few more of those unknown unknowns.

After seeing the trailer in the theatre last night, I change my mind. This movie is going to suck horribly. It's going to try really really hard for greatness and it's going to fall flat on its face. You heard it here first, folks.
It's not that I want it to fail, but....come on. It's a frame-by-frame adaptation of a hipper-than-thou comic book about a bunch of bad people in a bad city. I just get a flop vibe, is all.

hey dudes it's actually meant to be pretty good. I know a lot of you share the same opinion as Subhuman on everything, espeacially music taste and movies but perhaps you could ignore his flop vibe just this once.
riteNow, this film should either not be called a comic book movie, or it should be the only one called a comic book movie. It is nothing like any other film that has been based on a comic book. The biggest reason this turned out so well is the fact that these books have a beginning and end, unlike ongoing series that have thousands of issues. When making those films, the folks in power had to choose what they were going to work with, and what they weren't. They had to make a lot of sacrifices, understandably. Plus, those books (Spider-Man, Superman, Batman) are aimed at a large audience. Especially Spider-Man, which is supposed to connect with the everyman. With Sin City, you have everything you need neatly arranged in a few paperbacks created by one man. The material is very clear and has a distinct style throughout (unlike series where the cast of creators changes). And there isn't really a target audience. These books were made for those who may end up liking it, no more, no less. It was Miller's baby, he loved it and he didn't care if anyone else did. He's protected his baby and it has turned out awesome.
