Check It Out: Sin City TV Show In Development

By

From the mind of legendary comics writer: Frank Miller get ready for another Sin City adaptation, except this time on the small screen.  According to Deadline it appears after two feature films we are getting a Sin City Television series.  The show will be directed by Len Wiseman (Underworld: Evolution), with Glen Marazza (The Shield) stepping on board as show runner, no word yet on when and where the show will air or stream.

Find out our thoughts on the show after the break...

As someone who enjoyed the first Sin City film back in 2005, and was extremely disappointed by the sequel: A Dame To Kill in 2014 this news does not get me excited at all.  This macho universe does not play well within a modern context, especially against all the modern superhero films and television shows at our disposal today.


In 2005 comics fan were stoked to have something like Sin City at the theater based on the starvation of good comic book adaptations, by the time A Dame to Kill was released in 2014 amidst the MCU, and post Nolan Batman, no one cared.  I fear that a Sin City TV show would garner the same sentiment; in 2005 I would have most likely watched every episode of the show.  However up against the DC CW series, The Marvel Netflix series, Legion, and with Gifted arriving this Fall most will not care to take a trip to Sin City anytime soon!

     As Skeletor said in the 1987 film Masters of the Universe , "Everything comes to he who waits, and I have waited so very long for this moment." Yes, after one year of preorders, waiting, concepts and preproduction pieces, constant changes, small victories, crushing defeats, and sheer anticipation, Castle Grayskull has finally arrived to my home. Earlier this afternoon my wife texted me a picture of the enormous box sitting in our kitchen and I've been jazzed ever since. Heck, I've been singing the Castle Grayskull song all week now to help myself pass the time. Before I even open the box, I have to say that while there have been plenty of ups and downs on the journey from having Castle Grayskull exist simply as a sketch on paper to existing as an actual product delivered to my door, I think there are some folks that need to be commended. First, regardless of all other issues I don't think anyone can say that Scott Neitlich ("ToyGuru") and the Fo

The Night He Came Home Again! - A 'Halloween 2018' Review

When we first learned that Director: David Gordon Green would be talking over the iconic Halloween franchise, my thoughts could best be described as skeptical at best.  How was the guy that brought us Pineapple Express going to bring Michael Myers home again? Also where did Danny McrBride fit it in? Would Blumhouse and Green do the un-thinkable by allowing McBride to dawn the mask, and having the world famous physical comedian wield who knows what as his weapon of choice? Find out the answer to these, and many other questions after the break in our Halloween review....
