the photography/filminh in that movie is absolutely incredible. They did an amazing job on it.

I don't think that it actually surpasses Fight Club in a sense, as Fight Club was more original with its story and had better acting.

Sin City was remarkable because it followed the storyline of the books to the letter, the angles by an inch and the characters are such good choices too. But think about it, Sin City has a little too much voiceover. Still it's an amazing movie that I love, but Fight Club, I......won't even start to explain.

^Im sorry but for me, Fight club made me tingle all throughout my body, and Sin City made me tingle all throughout my body and my MIND. Sin City had cooler shots in my opinion. Right Club is right up there though.

Yeah, teeheheeheee.. Tingly fingly,... "Sliiiddee."

But as I said, all those shots are directly from the comic..almost anyway. It makes it spectacular, but Fight Club didn't have anything but imagination to work on.

Anyway, Marv is a definite badass. It's good that they used the "later Marv" from other Sin City books as the first Marv was poorly drawn.

it might have come straight from the comic book, but Frank Miller was a director, so it's not like he didn't come up with sin city, it was all his imagination and his idea in the first place

i thought it looked like it was gonna be bad. And my friend, whose favorite movie is Bad Santa, said it was good. I sorta dismissed it. I rented it last night and have to say it was awesome.

He was an assisting director, just because he wrote the comics, the movie was Rodriquez's, Miller himself said that. But yeah, they're both fucking stunning movies both visually and mentally, both are based on something great, but the movies are almost superior compared to the originals.

i just saw it yesterday, and it was definately everything that everybody claimed it was and then some. And the cinematography was probably the best I have ever seen. It better win many oscars.

i watched it yesterday, sicky. my friend said they're making 2 more for the other novels

Anyway, a gas station we pass. We got gas, and ran off to get grub.It was a nice little pub in the middle on nowhere. Anywhere woulda been better. I ordered enchiladas and I ate 'em, Ali had the fruit punch.

It's amazingly true to the comic, I have to agree. In my opinion nothing will ever beat Fight Club, palahniuk is a genius (as far as writing).

Does anybody know which shots Quentin Tarantino directed? I knw he did the car scene with Clive Owen and Benecio Del Toro but what else did he do?

That's all he directed. AND Sin City CAN'T win any Oscars: Robert Rodriquez had to resign from the Director's Guild or whatever, because their rules say, that you can't have two directors directing a movie (Frank Miller/Rob) and you can't win an Oscar without being in da clubb..

yeah it's a good movie, but if u read the comics it's almost exactly the same so it's not that original. but it had jessica alba so it doesn't matter ;)

Fight club would be better if they redid it so it was more like the book. Keep all the people the same just change the storyline. If you read fight club the book youd know what i mean.
