Walk down the right back alley in Sin City, and you can find anything.

Go and watch this trailer:

Now. Do it.

OK.

Now we will discuss why this trailer is cooler than a dead penguin.



1: The music. The entire trailer is worth it, just for the guitar orgasm when the car goes off the road and flips. Hot damn. The song is called Cells, by The Servant. I downloaded it and have so far played it... 21 times. Who could a resist a song featuring the line "... Like a rash on the back of a manky cat ..." ? Not me.

2: The black and white. Its film noir. Black and white = rebel cool. Or a lack of budget.

3: Bruce Willis. How good is it to see him get back to his ass kickin' days, instead of poncing about like a poofy psychologist? Sixth Sense was an M Night Shymamnanamamammamamalam film; of course he was gonna turn out to be dead. I don't think he shot anyone or blew anything up in that film. Pah. Boo!

4: The shot of the bright yellow blood. In fact, any of the bits with the cel shading. Except for the yellow guy, or the shot of Elijah Wood. We will reach them shortly.

5: The large amount of sexy looking women. Mmm. Oh yeah, and the men. If you're in to that sorta stuff.

6: The way that guy's nose at the beginning looks EXACTLY like the nose in the comic. It's almost like they had a prosphetic or something. Wink.

7: The cigarette lighter sound. The sounds of old cigarette lighters are only topped by the sounds of me cracking my knuckles.

8: That fella with the yellow skin. No idea why he has yellow skin, but hey.

9: That cool weapon that looked sorta like a swastika. In fact, that's my new zombie killing weapon.

10: Elijah Wood. Mostly 'cos you couldn't see his face. Apparently in the comic book he plays a psycho who rips off penises. I feel that he should gain inspiration from Lord of the Rings, where he ponced about for most of the time squeaking like a castrated pig on helium

11: The croaky voice of Nose man at the beginning.

12: The font of the title.

13: The total lack of cute looking kids, dogs, affection or any cutesy stuff.

14: The rain effect over the 'Coming Soon' at the end.

15: The looooooong close up of the lapdancer.

16: The silhouette of those two kissing. Groovesome.

17: The title. Sin City? That's more asskicking than a three legged man in a mirror thats full of asses.



Yeah, that's enough of that. Hot damn I'm going to see that film.



Today's NEW zombie killing weapon: The random backwards swastika boomerang, frisbee shuriken blade thing thrown by the sexy looking woman in the Sin City Trailer.
