But they weren't based on the work of someone else, as Miller's film is, so they can be viewed with an uncritical or expectant eye. But this Spirit film is an abomination to the work by and memory of Will Eisner.<BR/><BR/>Thanks Ry. I'm glad you enjoyed my little recollection. I almost fell over when I opened the envelope and read the card. Eisner was a true gentleman.Vince Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14877368290461946689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33557612.post-10043957812215293302008-12-30T16:40:00.000-08:002008-12-30T16:40:00.000-08:00Yes, I've heard the movie is bad....but this was a...Yes, I've heard the movie is bad....but this was an inspirational story.

I won't even bother seeing it now.<BR/><BR/>However, I'll always have a soft spot for Ed Wood movies, but I'm sure it wouldn't be as campily entertaining.Justinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17641021856477898999noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33557612.post-5788615297351504942008-12-30T06:41:00.000-08:002008-12-30T06:41:00.000-08:00Thanks, Foodbin.You're right Max.

The man was tops. I like the new blog.<BR/><BR/>Now onto some related business...<BR/><BR/>I went to see Frank Miller's film "The Spirit", and it was horrible. It was like an Ed Wood movie with a big budget.Vince Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14877368290461946689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33557612.post-77037195904376174522008-12-28T06:42:00.000-08:002008-12-28T06:42:00.000-08:00I love The Spirit!
