It looks like Sin City  :'(

I'm sure that will help market the movie but ugh, that's not The Spirit.

edit: I was talking about the wrong trailer apparently, but shit, it looks like my criticism still applies  :lol

on the bright side, this could be an unintentional comic book camp classic on the level of a supergirl

I like Sin City, really like 300

That being said, The Spirit looks outrageous. I don't know much about the comic or character but walking on telephone cables and running down buildings don't seem like characteristics of masked detectives. Is it supposed to be some type of mystery/noir thing with superpowers thrown in?

I'll definitely see it but it doesn't look good. Seems like Frank's head got even bigger due to the success of his IPs in Hollywood

Why must these hot chicks be subjected to crappy roles by Frank Miller?  At least he dresses them up nice, but his movies are still pretty painful to sit through.  I'm getting sick of green screen flicks, too.

I like 300 for what it is

I did not like Sin City, they left out the best part of the Marv storyline

There's a billboard for this in Seattle down by Safeco Field. It's not coming out until December, right?
