Maybe I was wrong about THE SPIRIT...

Hope you got them while you could. LIONSGATE have removed them from our site!

You know I was saying yesterday that Frank Miller's version of The Spirit was likely NOT to be the goofy version of the character and instead a depiction of the detective as if he were Batman living in Miller's Sin City world? Well pleasantly, I'm happy to say I'm wrong. The Spirit is goofy. He's not too far removed from Adam West's Batman of the 60's, The Green Hornet and very much akin to the comic books and detective radio serials of the 40's and 50's and these pictures capture that beautifully. And I should have known it all along. It's Frank Miller - no one loves Eisner's original vision more than him. I mean they were pals, he aint' gonna disrespect the character. DON'T dismiss these images because the photo's of the characters look goofy. The same could have been said about both 300 and Sin City during it's production. Wait until the you see what they look like with the green screen. I don't know how long we can keep these photo's online but for now, here's MANY shots from the set of the film from Dark Horizons...

REMOVED AT THE REQUEST OF LIONSGATE!!!
