Because over-quoting is an eyesore (though I guess the proper compromise would be to quote the most recent line instead of the whole pyramid). That's been a bit of a common practice to the point where some posts just straight-up get edited by mods if they have too many quotes in a row.[/quote]

I wish people would stop doing that. Makes bananabox impossible to read.[/quote]

[quote=Joel]I think you're right. He's a damn fine action choreographer and editor, that's about it. If he were a drummer, he'd be good at barking the hi hat just right, like a 1970's radio hit inspired by motown. He lets his sequences breathe while he keeps the pace tight.[/quote]

[quote=Iroquois]Nah, [i]Sin City[/i] is very much the kind of style-over-substance piece that aims to wow you the first time around and if that doesn't work then the odds of it growing on you are extremely slim. I put it into a top 100 about a decade ago, but now I don't think it'd even crack my top 500.

I don't think Rodriguez is capable of doing that kind of emotional weight. He's settled in his niche of doing weird little action movies and I don't think he's going to come out any time soon.[/quote]

[quote=Joel]I'm still waiting for RR to drop a drama on us with the same emotional weight of Running on Empty or Ordinary People. I was thinking of watching that one again, Sin City. I remember not thinking it was very good when I saw it so..maybe now I'll love it? If you think it's not so great, I'll probably review it next. ;P[/quote]

[quote=Iroquois]Maybe. I saw [i]Sin City[/i] in theatres and thought it was the coolest thing, but nowadays I think it's, well, not.[/quote]

[quote=Joel]OK. I understand. In all honesty I am a bit biased because I saw it in theaters back in 1984 and thought it was the coolest thing I'd seen. I suppose the collective has a way of lowering the shelf life. Just not in my aisle, that's all.[/quote]
