Well I sure am tired

I just finished watching Sin City, the theatrical adaptation of Frank Miller's graphic novel (comic
book for those of you not in the "know" as it were)

I didn't really know what to expect going into the film

I never really was interested in the entire Sin City line when I was into comics at all

So I didn't have the background that a comic fan has these days with high budget films like
Spiderman and X-Men and the like. Everyone knows the story behind Superman, Batman,
Spiderguy and even the Hulk, to a certain extent. I'm certain that not everyone reading this will
know that Superman's real name is Kal-El or that Batman only has one working testicle. Do
these little details really matter? Certainly not. I'm just saying. So I didn't know the background
of the characters or how they related to the story. I didn't even know their names, but it didn't
matter. The style was very nice, something that hasn't been done *to my knowledge* The use of
color *or lack thereof* was very nice, I enjoyed it. Surely did add some flair.

So, like I said, I didn't know what to expect. I didn't have high expectations or hopes even. I am
pleased with my time spent. I won't say that my existence has been validated by watching it, but
it wasn't bad :-p

Would I recommend it? Sure I would. It's a good film. Not everyone would understand
everything that was going on during the film, maybe not even the second or third time around
(by the fourth time you would get smacked in the back of the head if you didn't get it) but it
came out well.

If you can understand Pulp Fiction, then you would have no problem keeping pace with this
storyline. Even though there isn't a real connection between the two films. They are just broken
up more than your average everyday feature.

And there is no Gimp in Sin City

Besides that, it's good

I also got the Ring 2 today

...I dunno about that one

Just the name itself. When The Ring came out it was all like WHA-PAH! Look at me! I'm all
circular and ring-like. That makes me scary! Plus I got this goth wannabe girl with wet hair.
OOOOOOOOOO spookies!

So a title makes all the difference. We are going to do another ring film. BUT! It's going to be
twice as good. Twice as scary. Twice as goth kid with wet hair-y. Let's call it The Ring....two.
Oh sure why not. What's in a name...


*mumble mumble*

At least it isn't like The Ring part deux

Or The Ring, el numero dos

Or The Ring 2 ½

Or The Ring....again

Or The Ring....plus some more!

Or The Oval!







Hm The Oval doesn't sound too bad....



*quickly jots down horrible script and sends it to Hollywood*
Man oh man, I can't wait!
