But I saw numerous trailers and posters, Coat. If Miller screwed up the tone of what I've already seen, what makes you think the rest of the film will be so different? Going "Dark Knight" or "Sin City" on the light-hearted noir of "The Spirit" is like Spidey without his sense of humor. It's all wrong. Nah, I haven’t seen the movie.

I think I hit the Newsarama button by mistake. I, for one, am incredibly jealous of Frank Miller. He brought on a pool of talent that will surely garner interest, box office smash or not. It may not be the next Dark Knight, but I doubt it'll be Hancock either. I guess we'll see in a few weeks. I’m sorry, thought this was the Beat. I think I hit the Newsarama button by mistake.

And don't you just love that stylish pose of Mr. Miller? It reminds one of a convention photo of a fanboy posed next to a celebrity.
