“Dick Grayson, twelve years old, wanted a Nintendo Wii.”

“I keep the hat on. It’s better that way.”

Personally, when I saw the trailer, I thought "It looks good, but it looks just like SIN CITY". What I'm afraid of is, after THE SPIRIT, audiences will probably be tired of this visual style and not give a damn about SIN CITY 2. But that's something to worry about later. I'm still looking forward to THE SPIRIT. I probably won't go see it opening day (my wife would kill me if I asked to go to the movies on Christmas!), but I'll see it not long after.
