Too much marketing. Seriously. I feel like I saw ads for this running on two years, and the blitz over the last six months has been unbearable. It's likeTV shows that get promo'd to death, to the point where people won't watch it out of spite. The more promos for a movie or TV show, the worse it is.

It is the producers fault for releasing it on a bad weekend.
1. Marley & Me - Chick flick, Christmas time = $$$
2. Bedtime Stories - Kid/Family film + Christmas time = $$$
3. Benjamin Button - Brad Pitt, good story, Oscar type film
4. Valkyrie - Tom Cruise, Action, History.
5. Yes Man - Jim Carrey, Comedy, Week 2
6. Seven Pounds - Will Smith, Oscar Type film
7. Tale of Despereux - Animated film (see Bedtime Stories)
8. The Day the Earth Stood Still - Dwindling Blockbuster in it's third week.
9. The Spirit -
I got to say, I had little interest in the film, but the studio didn't position the film to do good at the box office. A film like The Spirit with noSuperstar to carry the film will not do good at the box office this time of the year.

I hated 300 and Sin City so I figured this would be just as bad.

as soon as i heard sam l jackson say im the octopus i have 8 of everything i was donz0. i do my research on these graphic novel movies and they seem to havegone way off base with that character. i think people are just over the whole dark with exagerated tones of red thing. i think dudes who produced these felloff after 300 this should have been the second sin city not an attempt to start another money maker

I haven't seen it, but it doesn't look like it did the comic any justice visually. The series doesn't have as much in common with Sin City and thelike as they made it out to be... I don't really want to see it based off of those two things alone.

The Spirit sucked...don't waste your time or money on this. Could have been a lot better, but yeah a complete waste.
