Over at Comic Book Movie Robert Rodriguez is talking about Sin City 2. Here are some exciting tit bits:
“A Dame to Kill For is the basis for the second one,” it’ll also be shot in green-screen and “I think Marv (Mickey Rourke) will come back…and Dwight’s (Clive Owen) in that one, Gail’s (Rosario Dawson) in that one, both Goldie and Wendy (Jaime King) are together, you see the twins together – one blonde, the other black and white, Miho’s (Devon Aoki) in that one, and then there’s a bunch of new characters,” Rodriguez said.
“We’re still writing the script to see if there’s enough for a third one
Sounds interesting indeed, and I love the idea that Rourke and Dawson will be back, although I’m not exactly excited by getting the wooden and cheesy Owen back.
Something I’m concerned about, and have said before, is that the first film might have heavily relied on the effect and style to be such a hit, since it’s now been seen can the second movie do as well? I thought that it would have to pull out something extra to be as successful, but there doesn’t sound to be much concern on that front from Rodreiguez. What do you think? Interesting news and looking forward to the second? Do you think the excitement of the new style will be lost in the second and it won’t be as popular?
