UGO.com has two new posters for Frank Miller’s adaptation of The Spirit. Surprisingly enough, neither features a close-up of one the movie’s femmes fatales.
See the second poster after the break.

…umm… wow.
Well, I certainly wasn’t expecting that.
September 19th, 2008 at 3:45 pm
Wow. Is that some sort of French couture SLJ is wearing? I vote the designer OUT!

“I’m Gonna Kill You All Kinds Of Dead” and “Face My Power”
What Marketing braintrust came up with that?
And is it just me or is this film looking to be more like “The Octopus vs. The Spirit” rather than just “The Spirit”?
September 19th, 2008 at 4:10 pm
Ick. And double ick.
But on the bright side, we aren’t discussing why we should be discussing Alan Moore’s hatred of movies for a while.

The more promo stuff I see of this movie the less I want to see it.
September 19th, 2008 at 4:35 pm
SLAM EVIL!!!!!!!

@Richard:
It’s looking more like Frank Miller’s fascist Ryndian brain finally had a mental breakdown.

What amazes me most about al of this movie promo material is, unlike almost ANY other property (novels, comics, TV show, stage play) that has been adapted to film, Will Eisner’s The Spirit comes with a TON of printed pieces that could be transferred to a poster or one sheet.
Just think of all of the splash pages that exist that a modern day graphics artist could have used for a base as the poster.
Why reinvent something that doesn’t need reinventing?
September 19th, 2008 at 5:54 pm
Oh man, that’s not good at all. Nope, not even a little bit.
September 19th, 2008 at 6:48 pm
I know it’s not Eisner’s take, but the movie looks so daft I’m looking forward to it.
September 19th, 2008 at 7:44 pm
I’m looking forward to it.

Nice to see the logo-tecture showing up. Not so nice to see it spouting some awkward and lame badass-isms. I won’t bother with the bullet-holed Spirit or the diva pimp Octopus images. It’s like beating a dead horse at this point. I will say whoever is in charge of the marketing on this movie needs to told to just stop.
September 20th, 2008 at 5:50 am
The studio needs to just cut their losses and just ship this straight to dvd
I wonder if the Punisher will be any good ?
September 21st, 2008 at 12:39 pm
Wow…this is bad. Although, ‘Sin City’ the movie is slowly becoming a modern classic, so people will probably eat this up too…
Straight to Video Man-Thing movie > The Spirit?

I can’t wait to see how this movie is going to play out. I can’t remmeber the last time a movie had this much venom spit at it by it’s core target audience. I’d love to know how John Q. Public, people that don’t know The Spirit from Shinola, are reacting to any of this.

I never thought I’d say this, but, Boy! does Sam Jackson look like a tool! Yowzahs!
