Heres the poster for Sin City and some cool as hell pics that give you an idea of what this flick will be looking like...I think its awesome as hell. The pics give us a feel of what Rodriguez is trying to do...wich is basically duplicate the comics look...black and white whith a color here and there to accentuate an important character. Im pumped!

That pic of Marv with the band aids on his face seems as if the comic just bursted to life! The yellow bastard, he looks awesome! Holy shit, I honestly think Im finally going to forgive Robert Rodriguez for Once upon a time in mexico...

It puts the "rocks" back into "This motherfucking rocks."

[MickeyKnox]

All I have to say is WOW!!!! This movie looks awesome, i mean it looks exactly like the graphic novel which i'm a fan of and i'm a loss for words right now.

[sightless]

looks sweet buta fter watching Once upon a time in mexico...
im not so sure

[Nachokoolaid]

This looks very kick ass indeed.

Is anyone else getting the feeling that Frank Miller is more of the director of this than Rodriguez, but that RR just attached his name so the studio would give Miller a chance to direct? It's less of a gamble if there are two directors, and one has much more experience. Because all the set info so far seems to point that Miller is more in charge. I guess that's just my opinion though.

[HHH123007]

Just those pics at the end give me a boner alone.

[Elgyn]

One segment of the movie is directed by Quentin Tarantino, as a "thank you" to RR for scoring "Kill Bill, Vol. 2" for free.

And yes, this looks f*cking awesome.

This film looks absolutely OUTSTANDING! I can not wait to see this, possibly my most anticipated film right now.

[spacemonkey]

I think its safe to say that Robert Ro is trying to make up for the shit fest that was ONce Upon a time in Mexico. Im glad cause it looks like his pouring his artistic heart on to this movie.

Hey I handt seen those new posters....the look awesome, thanx for posting them sharpshooter!

The film is split up into 3 stories. The first is about a man named Marv who looks like a freak. He has sex with a woman(Carla Gugino)and he wakes up to her dead body the next day. He goes on a rampage to find out who did it and get revenge.

I believe the second is about a group of prostitutes that get their pimp to kill an undercover cop which leads into a war with the cops and the group of people in the bad parts of Sin City

The final story has Bruce Willis and Jessica Alba. I think that one is about Willis' final night before retiring and helping Alba from a yellow-skinned man who is trying to kill her.

[bob]

This isn't usually my type of film, but yeah...this looks freaking awesome.

And who cares what Jessica Alba's doing in the movie? As long as she's there, I'm happy.

Also think Benicio del Toro and Clive Owen look pretty badass.

[donna542004]

I never heard of Sin City. But when I heard who was in it. And saw a few clips. I said this is something I am looking forward to. I love the fact that all these mainstream actors are in this movie.

I have noticed that more mainstream actors are doing more and more indie films. And you truely see some better acting from them.

For a $1.00

Rodriguez scored KB 2 for 1 buck, QT returns a favor directing a segment for a buck.

[Lynn Minmei]

The idea of a film that is visually entertaining as well as a good story is irresitible.

Plus, I'm a slut for Tarantino.

There should be a "watch Trailer" link (pretty small) to the right of the Jessica Alba poster.

That sucks space :(

It should pop up on a quicktime video soon, probobly on the sin city official site by Friday, when this weeks releases come out.

[Jamesadin]

Heres the trailer in quicktime format. Its kind of choppy, but oh well. :P

I think the trailer is awesome as is the posters. Anyone know of an official release date?

[AndrewLargeman]

Clive Owen is becoming one of my favorite actors. I'll Sleep When Im Dead, Closer, now this. Ill be the first in-line to see this when it comes out.

[Squid Vicious]

You know, when I first heard that Mickey Rourke was going to play Marv, I thought to myself, "Mickey Rourke?? He's about half the size that Marv should be!" Of course, when I saw the footage from the Comic Con, all that changed. In fact, all of the actors look like the characters from the comics.

Yes, this movie is going to kick so much ass that everyone's asses will end up looking like two Japanese flags.

btw anyone knows what movie they will show sin city trailer with?

Coolest actor of all time:

http://www.beniciodeltoro.com/images/films/sincity/poster1.jpg

[APzombie]

The new Del Toro poster is slick! I want to have a collection of all these posters hanging in my room... with Rosana Dawson hanging on my ceiling.

[APzombie]

On IMDB it said that, although Del Toro already looked like his character, he demanded to have prosthetics done to look more like the artwork. I have to say I cant recongize any definate Del Toro features in his character on screen. Look at the poster, if you weren't told that was Benicio Del Toro would you recongnize him?

[Sigur509]

Wow that poster kicks major ass and I agree about del toro not looking like himself, I wouldnt have recognized him had you guys not said it. This movie has such a great cast I cant even begin to believe it!

[redwhisper13]

Just to reiterate: this movie looks kickass! I wonder if RR and Frank Miller planned on releasing the movie on April Fool's Day on purpose or not. Specifically I don't really care, this movie is going to rock hard.

[TeawithBlood]

i can't fucking wait. where can you find those poster?

Rodriguiz made it clear at the comic con that he was there mostly just to assist Miller with Directing. Miller is the captain of this bad boy from what I gathered.

If this is in fact the case with this movie...I wouldnt be dissapointed at all...I think Millers a visionary. He loves violent imagery and knows how to make it look good...its almost as if he had the talent to make violence look beautiful. Its very evident in his comics...but his also not afraid to push the envelope and show violence as shock value.

If this bit of news is true, then Im really happy with it!

Im pumpoed for the film as it looks awesome I just hope its not all stlye and no substance

Ill tell you what, that could actually be the case. And Ill tell you why, Frank Miller is a visual artist. If youve seen his artwork in the past he gives a whole lot more importance to the visual aspect of things....when you think about it most of SinCity's stories are simple revenge stories....he tends to go on a violence overdose most of the time in his stories. To me this is a good thing because I too am a visual person. The comics I buy, I buyem first and foremost for the art. And Frank Miller delivers in that department. Hes artwork has evolved greatly over the years and like fine wine it keeps on getting better with time. Sin City (the comics) is a fine example of that.

This is not to say hes not good at writing...he's also written the best Batman story ever written The Dark Knight Returns and hes also done some really escapist things like Hard Boiled wich is just a violence tour de force. Hes stories and screenplays all have that in common...the violence but beneath it all if you look hard enough, theres a good story, a good core to the whole thing.

The thing about Miller I like (besides his art) is his attitude, hes like "yeah this is violent and gross! So fucking what? I like it!" Its like he hasnt been afraid to shy away from violent bloody imagery because to him theres beauty in extremely violent stuff....its shocking, different and just plain in your face.

How will all this translate to Sin City the movie? Well Im hoping he will do good in both aspects...the visual one and the story one....Im hoping he has adapted the comics well to the screen...and the story of the comics is very well written, very emotional stuff added in with the violence, so Im hoping that will translate well to the film. Of course Im also expecting him to give the visual side of the film the most importance and as seen by the images and previews, his doing just that.

I found some totally badass avatars for Sin City on this link. Too bad they're too big to use on this site.

This is definitely one of the coolest scene ever shot on film I have ever seen (I know it's not shot of film but you know what I mean) .

[premiere117]

In my opinion this is what a comic book movie should look like.Instead of going for as realistic as possible make it as colorful as the comics themselves.Also it looks like robert called up every A- list actor he knew for this one.

[rilocay]

Ive just finished reading That Yellow Bastard and within the first chapter it becomes very evident that this film HAS to have an R rating in america, so does anyone nkow what rating this is aiming to be? Because Australia it would be MA from what ive read, and it looks to stay pretty faithfull to the graphic novels (except for alba, take ur damn top off already!! :P).

Either way this is gonna rock big time.

I dont know, judging by what Ive seen (and that cool as heck website!) Id say theres no way in hell that this movie will suck.

[Nachokoolaid]

The website definitely kicks ass. And let me mention that new member of the cast was announced. That's right, fuck Willis. Fuck Del Toro. Fuck Owen. Fuck Alba (who wouldn't). Fuck Rourke. The role of Priest will be played by Frank Miller. Ok, that was a little too dramatic. Check out the site though. It's cool. I made my own wallpaper using some of the images there. I'll post it here later.
