I loved The Spirit. I don't get all the hate. Does no one know that it is based on a comic book?

[JayScholl911]

no i knew very well that it was based on a comic...just a really weird and in my opinion bad comic book

[bennis07]

Yea I rented this movie recently and I didnt watch the whole thing it was fucking terrible. I thought it would be good because I like frank miller and sin city but wow that movie was one of the wrost I've seen.

Apparently, according to Miller the toy dino was something he tried to get in his movies.... don't ask. And it wasn't suspposed to be like "Sin City." It was meant to be like the old campy film noirs. The way they spoke was meant to be unnatural, it's how film noir characters speak...... The only thing about the movie that really bugged me(aside from them melting a kitten) was when the Octopus said that the Spirit was as dead as Star Trek

I quite loved this film tbh

Dude, the dinosaur part was a complete blasphemy! It shows how much you don't know our fellow Frank Miller. If you had read just a few Sin Cities, you would have noticed a bunch of dinosaurs randomly thrown in there. It's weird and pointless, yes.. but Frank sure likes to draw them. And they're sure cool creatures to look at.

I think the random-dinosaur appearance in the movie was just some kind of signature or little joke or something. Maybe irrelevant to you, but the fans certainly liked it!

The thing is everyone says pretty much the same thing the critics say. So.. that's what happens. The Spirit HAS to suck. The Joker HAS to be a legend. So people just agree. (of course it doesn't happen to absolutely everyone, but it sure happen a lot... or maybe it's just a huge coincidence that regular random people have the same opinion of badass crictics)

[112d12d]

haha yeah no egg on my facee

[narmolania]

Every one has theyr own oppinnion on movies. personally? loved the movie, the whole ADHD and fetish for cosplay for the villain was HILARIOUS and I liked the movie a lot. it made me laugh. like I sed, every one has theyr oppinnions. I guess im just weard. because I love movies like the spirit, ghost rider, tank girl and such, but hate the new batman. im just glad the world is full of oppinnions, (saying this, becuse it pisses me off that people are dissing the peopel that disagree with others.)

[elfgurl203]

absoloutly hilarious... 'Eurgh free range chickens with their big brown ugly ass eggs, they piss me off. Every time i think about those big brown eggs they piss me off' haha the funniest and most random line ive heard in a movie....i totally agree, why is he playing in these weird crappy films! hes wasting his talent :P
