"Scarlett Johansson actually did a phenomenal job in it"

I did a theater check on this the other day. I lol'd at how terrible she was.

But I still plan on seeing it, maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised.

JK. About the pleasantly surprised part.

I can't wait to see how bad this is.

Well, I enjoyed it. The style was pretty cool, and the dialogue hit me in the right spot as well. More character development would have been nice, though I don't know where they could have gone with it.

i really didn't mind it as much as everyone else seems to have.

i saw it because i didnt really want to see anything else at the theaters (mom/sister were seeing something else). went in expecting something bad.

it was an enjoyable watch overall. agreed that character development was lacking and it felt a bit disjointed at first, but it was interesting at least. dont regret it.

^^ Some here have to hate it simply because I started the thread.

1/5/2009 3:27:08 PM

^ True.

Frank Miller doesn't know how to work with moving media. Period.

We get it, you weren't a fan of Sin City or The Spirit and will not be a fan of any future movie project Frank Miller is involved with.

1/5/2009 4:16:19 PM

I reserve the right continue bitching about a talented person who refuses to act like it.

1/5/2009 4:22:46 PM

WE GET IT, YOU DON'T LIKE SHIT MOVIES, GAHHHHHHHHHH

WE LIKE SHIT MOVIES, K? STOP HATING ON OUR BOY

Your grasp of film noir and the moving picture is sorely lacking and is obviously inferior to my own. *Sniff*

disliking god-awful movies=snobbery?

1/6/2009 12:19:03 AM

constantly reminding everybody how ineffective Miller is with film compared to print in a way that makes it look like you're the only one that had the brilliant thought = snobbery

Matt and I decided that this movie was the biggest prank ever played.

The trailer made it seem interesting, and I was lured in by Scarlet in glasses being hot.

It ended up being the worst fucking movie I've ever seen. It wasn't even laughably bad. Just BAD.

Does this mean I can learn spoken languages at an alarming rate?

1/6/2009 12:06:32 PM

^^ I swear the comments here even scared me off it. I haven't seen the movie and will probably wait until it's out on DVD or pay-per-view.

PS: Oh, shit--now the movie's being openly mocked:

^Ebert's comment at the end of that little montage was hilarious.
