The best way to describe this film is that it's a romp stomping, limb chopping, good time. Seriously, it is THE BEST comic book film I've ever seen... If you're wondering about the plot, it's basically about a corrupt police force and Senator who rule the city and the few people who strike back. An honest cop who's life is ruined just because he protected a girl from the rapist son of a Senator, a group of hookers at war with the mafia and a thug's tale of revenge. The stories are presented and all tie in, just like Pulp Fiction. The pacing of the film is perfect, there is not one moment where you are not completely interested in what's going on and Miller and Rodriguez do an excellent job of creating suspense, I was on the edge of my seat alot when I wasn't in shock of what I'd just seen.
I will warn you, it is the goriest mainstream film I've ever seen and it walks a few roads that even Troma won't tread. I counted seven castrations and more limbs came off than I can remember... Two guys are drowned in unflushed toilets and one man is "turned into a Pez Dispenser" as Dwight lightly puts it. They do a great job of fleshing out these characters and they're really unforgetable--you're gonna have to see this film to believe it.

WTF DUDE, i was supposed to be the first one watching that movie!!! :angry: :angry:
-
How come you didn't go? It opened yesterday...
-
got drunk:(
-
You're supposed to do that after the movie... Like me!
-
before, during, and after
-
Wait... Alcohol is allowed in Peruvian theaters?
-
maybe, but I'm going to american theaters
-
Actually, come to think of it, I know of a theater that DOES serve alcohol, but it's a grill/theater. Although, I suppose no one would care if you DID sneak a bottle in...
-
Looks like you saw it slightly before me. I loved the fucking movie, my only problem was the fact I was left wanting more, or closure, or something, Old Town is one of the coolest fucking concepts ever, and Marv is just downright sexy, sort of.
-
I really wanna see it.
-
I saw it last night. EDIT: In DLP form, too, so that looked nice.
It was a really interesting movie. Now THAT was drama, baby.
Don't read any spoilers on it and just watch the movie.
However, I've been desensitized to a lot of stuff, but some of the stuff in that movie made me squeamish.
Most of it was quite raw and dark.
-
Im prolly gonna see it next week whilst Im on me vacation.
i always read spoilers but I usually forget all about them by the time the movie is in front of me.
-
I'm gonna go see it with my new seveteen-year-old girlfriend. Heh heh.
-
I saw two couples walk out...
-
Was one of them me and Nikki? No. No it wasn't.
-
The couple sitting next to me left early... Like when the first penis was shot off. Goddamn it's upsetting that Michelle's moving, she was laughing at it with me...
-
I just watched Sin City earlier this afternoon. BEST CARLA GUGINO
TITTY SCENES EVER!! The movie was ok too.
-
Agreed.

You should chell out her cancelled show Karen Sisco. She was never nude but she always wore really tight shirts.

A friend went last weekend & said there about 15-20 kids in there that looked under 10 - FTW???!!! :wacko:
-
Wow. There were alteast no babies in the audience this time around, but a bunch of annoying teenagers who still think it's appropriate to scream "SKEET SKEET SKEET" during sex scenes. I got back at the one behind me though, pretty hardcore. I think Max was the only one I mentioned that to.
-
I bet the look on his face when he discovered it was priceless.
-
Indeed.
-
Oh, c'mon. What happened? Pleeeease?
Don't deny Nuri & me a good brat smackdown story!
-
Oh, I don't think it really needs to be told. But lets just say that this fuck job will probably never put his foot on someone's chair, or kick the person infront of him EVER again.
-
You ass, you must tell.
-
No.
-
No.
Damn you to the depths of the Arctic Ocean, you selfish ninny!
P.S.- Did it inolve fecal matter in any way?
-
Nope.

There will always be kids at a movie they shouldn't be seeing. I remember when Nuri and I were went to see cool world and we were thinking we shouldn't be here nevermind we were among the older kids there.
-
aww cool world! thats soo old :lol: :lol: :lol:
-
I was thinking of the gore factor. Guess it's fine for kids to see blood all over the place, but don't DARE stress them out with any red ink on their school papers!! :rolleyes:
-
Don't they have to use purple ink now? How long before that becomes the new red.
-

what, you can't use red ink now cause of that? fuck that bs
-
Some schools started using purple ink because red ink apparently made kids "feel bad about themselves"... Yeah...
-
Purple ink is for weirdos and middle school girls. Fuck that shit, the teachers should use a thick red sharpie.
-
Bingo. If kids think they're retards, they'll try harder.

awwww I actually use a purple pen to write! its so cute
-
But are you grading papers with it?
-
my own, yes
-
Huh...
-
YO some of your posts are "huh", "heh" etc etc. THAT'S why your post count is so big!
and then you go everywhere acting like the Fonzi of the board, "I have more posts than anyone here etc etc"
peeyoo!

Being the leader of the leather jacket brigade, it's my responsibility to keep up the level of one line responses on this board. Such as in MegatronYES' post where I simply called him a "wiener".
-
Faye's grade point average has finally been explained.
-
You know, kids ike my nephew who didn't grow up covered in bubble wrap and got spanked when they fucked up, etc. are going to own this country when they get into the work force against this crop of entitlement wimps. People in the armed forces are already starting to bitch about what a bunch of pussies some new recruits are.
-
Sissy boys! :P
-
We should just put everyone in boot camp directly from middle school. They'll be obedient, in shape, and thoroughly hazed by the time they get out. Everyone wins.

Weiner.
EDIT: No wait, "wiener" is correct. My mistake.

haha

Yea, a little more closure or merging of the storylines would be cool, like if instead of certain main characters dying, they went off and kicked the Senator's ass in massive bloodbath.
I was also bugged that the last story in the movie was a little less climatic/bloody than the other two.. the whole pace of the movie kinda slowed a little.
Am I the only one who didn't even flinch during most of the movie? Maybe the gore being in black and white helped. Or maybe I'm just a sick fuck.
Am I also the only one disappointed still that Alba didn't get naked? God she's hot.. she needs to be in playboy ASAP. :angry:
Who the hell was the woman in the red dress at the beginning of the movie?

I can't figure out the beggining, my friend says the guy was a hitman, which makes sense. I was confused because he said she'd cash HER chell in the morning, so I thought he was like a hired suicide. But my buddy said it just meant she'd clear out all her stuff, because killing her would relinquish her keys and stuff, but, I don't know.
At the end though, he did seem like a hitman, so whatever. As to who SHE was, no fucking clue.
As for your second point (I made it that way), no, no your definitly are fucking not. I've wanted to see that since Idle Hands and Dark Angel. Idle Hands of course comes close, my god that's a nice ass.
-
are you guys dumb? YES, he was a hitman
goddamn even i understood that
