New Spirit trailer Jul. 16, 2008
Source: Yahoo! Movies
by: Mike Sampson

UPDATE - Yahoo! Movies has posted an official version of the trailer described below. You can stream it below or head to Yahoo! for some HD lovin'.

I, quite frankly, never cared much about Frank Miller's upcoming comic adaptation THE SPIRIT. Sure it has Scarlett Johansson and Eva Mendes and that's enough to get my interest piqued on some level but then again their participation didn't make THE OTHER BOLEYN GIRL or GHOST RIDER any better. But now, I'm straight up dying to see THE SPIRIT because I can't believe how unbelievably bad it looks. Perhaps I'm being a bit harsh but this trailer doesn't jive with me one bit. It's so ridiculously over-the-top that I can hardly believe I'm watching it. If THE DARK KNIGHT is the one end of the spectrum that takes comic book movies super seriously, THE SPIRIT is on the waaay on the other end. Aside from getting douche chills just looking at the footage, the trailer itself is quite poorly cut together. It's almost as if they don't know how to sell this movie so all they've got left is pimping out the hot ladies. Or showing off Sam Jackson in Nazi regalia. Seriously. Pretty sure it will be shown off at Comic-Con and I can't wait to see what the reaction will be...

This looks like it could be a really interesting artsy film noir type movie or a horrible piece of crap. We shall see.

HOLY FUCK-MOTHERING CHRIST BATMAN!!!
this looks absolutely god awful. i've been of the opinion that Frank went off the deep end somewhere around Dark Knight Strikes Again, but this is the final proof. the man is lost to us now.

This looks awful. No film should be shot entirely over a green screen. In my opinion, it never works.

Okay, i finally caved and watched it..... wow, i really dont like this trailer, or where the movie seems to be headed, at all. and what the hell is Sam Jackson, or any of the characters for that matter, doing. this movie should not be about visual gags and over the top bad-acting-on-purpose humor. it is supposed to have that film noir feel to it with a touch of adventure and crime-drama. This TRULY does feel like Sin City Part Deux

EVEN WRONGER
Every time something for The Spirit is put out there it looks less like Eisner.

And Miller has a funny idea of what "a full-color movie" is, as he calls this on his blog.

WHAT GENRE DOES THIS FIT INTO?
Seriously? It plays out more like an erotic thriller than film noir. Shouldn't the trailer be centering on the title character, or the villain, and not the peripheral girls? It feels like the technology of this film was wasted on a plotless Sin City clone. How about a trailer that tells us what the film is about. Isn't that the point of a trailer, to sell us on the film's main premise? I'm less curious about this film than I was before. Now all I feel is disinterest.
