Nov 17 2008'The Spirit' Still Attempting to Create Interest with Clips Set to Music
No one seems too convinced by the last few trailers for The Spirit, so Lionsgate has pushed out one more quickie to remind everyone that the film comes out CHRISTMAS DAY. If your gifts aren't enough of a let down for the family, pack the kids in the Aerostar and take them to The Spirit, show them the true meaning of Christmas (disappointment). I particularly like the rockin' version of "Carol of the Bells" in this. It makes me feel like I'm watching a ridiculous, noir-based Home Alone sequel.

Full version of the "Carol of the Bells" is found on August Burns Red's myspace page.

That's definitely not in the spirit of the original WIll Eisner comic.
(and that pun is as bad as this film will be.)

Maybe he's hoping people will think it's a Sin City spin off? At this point, it's the only plausible explanation.
Also, am I the only one who thought Sam Jackson was going to end "We'll kill the Spirit" with "We'll kill him good"?

They should really just make a trailer containing every scene with SLJ. That's the only hope they have of luring anyone into the theatre for this piece.

you know... actually this is really just a shitty combo of sin city and the dark knight

Saw the movie early. It was crap. Don't waste your time on the stupid thing, they melt a cat and that was the cool part.
