I didn’t see the original but i’ve seen clips of the women in the film and they should have a sequel just based on that – http://www.cutesingleguys.com

KP-methinks you are a zealous fanboy! Perhaps you live with mommy still? Your scholarship is impeccable though, so be proud of that.

Sooooo…KP makes a point (a fairly important one regarding confusion of ownership. Eisner didn’t just create The Spirit, but he, and now his estate , owned it completely), and all of a sudden he’s an over zealous fanboy? And you feel the need to insult him? Regardless of where he lives (he could be 15 for all you know. Or homeless, given this economy) it’s pathetic that you tried to insult him for pointing out a large inaccuracy. Saying Frank Miller ‘inspired’ The Spirit (and in this article ‘inspired’ implies ‘created/owns’) is like saying Gus Van Sant inspired Psycho due to his 1997 adaptation.

I don’t even watch the first one anymore, sadly. I don’t even think I would see the second one, to be honest.

Remember when people would have cared about “Sin City 2?” You know, like three years ago?

Actually, Frank Miller did participate in a SPIRIT “jam” issue where he contributed a piece or two – and it could very well be argued that the SPIRIT movie was more Frank Miller’s stuff in “spirit” than it ever was in Will Eisner’s ( despite them being very good friends ).
After the dismal failure finacially & critically that FM’s Spirit did, it’s a wonder that they’d let him near anything else.

Frank Miller’s direction of the film “The Spirit”inspired its creation. I think a lot of directors would be offended to hear your version of how little they’re involved in the creation of their films. Jurrasic Park (the movie) was Spielburg-inspired. Nothing wrong with saying that. Besides, the point the author was making was that some of Sin City 2’s thunder had somewhat been stolen, if you assume that people that follow Frank Miller’s work are getting burnt out of Frank Miller inspired work. It was never implied the author thought Miller wrote “The Spirit.” Get your reading glasses straight before you’re a dick.

the next Rodriguez film won’t “likely” be Nerveracker over “Sin City” it unequivocally *will* be. The Film is set for release April 2010, when do you think they’re going to shoot it, huh?

Ummmmmmmmmm, “The Spirit” was not inspired by anything Frank Miller has ever done. All he did was direct the movie version of it, so get your facts straight.
