It’s actually happening. The movie is going into production. Obviously it’s following A Dame to Kill For, considering the title, but I think we can assume that there will be other plots, since that’s not really a story that can fill two hours. But what will it be? Family Values is awesome, but it’s Dwight and Miho heavy, and I assume they’d want to avoid telling two stories about that same group. Hell and Back could be cool but it would be hard to adapt without changing a lot, and judging from the first movie, I doubt they want to change a lot. So we’re probably stuck with a new Frank Millar story. Which, I don’t know. Obviously he’s a good enough writer that I’m excited to see his stories be adapted, but at the same time, his recent work’s been really shitty. I don’t really want to see anything he’s written in the last few years. That’s dumb.

And then there’s this quote from Rodriguez:

“I have wanted to re-team with Frank Miller and return to the world he created since the day we wrapped the original, but have felt a duty to the fans to wait until we had something truly exceptional that would meet and exceed what have become epic expectations. A Dame To Kill For will certainly be worth the wait.”

What does that mean? What were you waiting for? The book was written nineteen years ago. Clearly the special effects were fine for the first movie. What did you need to make this happen? Just be like “I wanted to make a ton of money pumping out shit like Spy Kids 4-D and maybe spend some time banging Rose McGowan”. Fair enough. But what other reason is there?

“I’ve wanted to make this movie so badly, but a Sin City movie can only be made once every eight years, when the Gabrath nebula goes into sync. Frank Millar tried, despite my warnings, and he accidentally made The Spirit.”
“Oh, jesus. I didn’t realize how terrible the outcome could be. I apologize for doubting you.”
