Sin City looks to be AMAZING. the cast list alone is supremely enthralling, and alexis bledel looks gorgeoussss.

alexis bledel (rory!)
carla gugino (who starred as 'karen sisco' which was an ABC show and sort of an Alias rival in it's asskicking femaleness but got beat hands down and cancelled, teehee)
jessica alba (this seems to be a nice mix of Honey and Dark Angel for her.)
rutger hauer (who was the bad guy who electro-tortured jack in Phase One which was the pivotal episode of Alias season 2)
clive owen (!!!)
benicio del toro (the ultimate cool)
elijah wood (hobbit turned gangsta)
brittany murphy (eep.)
jaime king (who is going to be on an upcoming OC episode)
bruce willis (his aging face actually looks sort of good with the leather trench and scars and all)
michael clarke duncan (he's so made for these kingpin roles)
josh hartnett (who bears an amazing resemblance to leonardo dicaprio, in the trailer atleast)
rosario dawson (whom i've never seen in anything but is supposed to be very good)
michael madsen (budd on kill bill 1 and 2, plus this guy's crazy. he's done 99 movies since 1982, and he's currently signed for 10 movies that have yet to be made. then again, he's always been a small-part actor, so i guess it makes sense.)
devon aoki (who i think is really ugly but she looks pretty cool in the trailer, standing all broody on the top of a building)

genre:
Science-Fiction/Fantasy, Fantasy, Cops, Film Noir, Sci-Fi/Horror/Fantasy, Crime, Guns, Love Affairs, Violence, Revenge, Strippers, Urban Crime, Fantasy Worlds, Urban Life, Based On A Novel

stylized, graphic novel film noir, ultraviolence. not usually my kinda thing but this somehow is incredibly intriguing. apparently, at the heart it's a dark, harsh tale in which characters struggle to do what’s right by doing wrong.

and quentin tarantino's a guest director - a novel concept. never heard of a guest director on a film before. apparently guest director means he directed a scene. should be interesting, because this movie's touted as a masterpiece on the pulpfiction/killbill scales. main director's robert rodriguez, so it's got to be fantastic. and rottentomatoes gave it 78% which is very high.

also, the latest alias ep has a very killbill2 feel with sydney stuck in the coffin and all. and she was wearing a leather jacket, too, like uma thurman. i will, however, concede that uma thurman is hotter than jennifer garner and the Bride is more amazing because she kicked her way out of the coffin on her own instead of waiting for marshall flinkman to come and save her. the dance at the end was extremely sweet.
