In Reply to: Sin City is a damn good movie! posted by EdM on April 7, 2005 at 12:37:53:
I love movies with the "retro future" look to them. Metropolis was probably the first. The anime remake of Metropolis carries on that theme, and is otherwise just as visually stunning as the first was in it's day. City of Lost Children has a more Jules Verne inspired look. Sky Captain and the World Of Tomorrow is also great, if you avoid paying attention to the plot and just focus on the pretty pictures. I haven't seen Wild Wild West yet, the whole western themed high tech thing seems off-putting to me. Besides which I heard it was a horrible movie :)I'm looking forward to watching Steamboy when it comes out on DVD, not in it's current, chopped theatrical release.
