Members fatbackribs Posted September 3, 2006 Members Share Posted September 3, 2006 There's a new movie coming out soon that reminds me a lot of the look and style of the original Sin City art. Renaissance trailer It looks very cool, but the trailer, with it's quick cuts, is also a bit of a strain on ye olde membrane. I'll be sure to bring some Tylenol to the theater just in case I can't take it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members CicadaSilence Posted September 3, 2006 Members Share Posted September 3, 2006 It looks interesting, but suffers from what a lot of animation seems to suffer from... fakey mouth movements. It really takes me out of a film. I'll probably see it anyway, but that's a major pet peeve of mine. I do really like the stark contrast of black and white, though.

Members gambit Posted September 3, 2006 Members Share Posted September 3, 2006 i saw it the other night at a local art-type cinema. visually its fantastic after you get used to the style, the story or acting however is pretty bad. i saw the version with daniel craig, ian holm etc doing the voices. i was thinking beforehand it might have been dubbed, but the animation is in english language. if it was french with subtitles it would have gotten away with a lot of the dialogue, but as it stood, it suffered from poor writing at times. the first half is a bit confusing and tries to set the character up as best as possible but has trouble keeping the pace up. the second half comes together really well.. i won't spoil anything but it starts getting really good at the end. the scenes with snow and rainfall look stunning.. i just can't help but feel if it was french with english subtitles, or had live action people on animated background, a la sin city it would have worked much better. but then i guess the comparisons may have been too great.

Members MonkeyKnifeFighter Posted September 4, 2006 Members Share Posted September 4, 2006 That looks awesome. Did you notice the "Coca-Cola Light" ad? I love Sin City like a pointy-eared 40yr old virgin loves Star Trek.~MkF! "Minus 10 calories!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
