Sin City.

I have never even heard of Swingers

I love Swingers

Swingers. ugh....Frank Miller movies are so fucking retarded.

i watched swingers with high hopes and was let down immensely. not to say that it's bad, i just didn't get into it. i love sin city, however.

sin city

Swingers is good but I think it's a bit overrated. It has some great bits, like the answering machine scene. Pure gold.
It's a good comedy, but it's a little overblown by the cult crowd.

I love Sin City because

a) It's Noir style

b) it's graphic novel style

c) the segmented stories. I love anthology type films

d) I love the stylized dialogue. Particularly the narration device. I guess that would qualify more as monologue. In any event, I think that's awesome.
It's a movie about badasses, and while they kick their share of ass, it's more interested in what they're personalities are, and what they think about before, after, and during ass kicking.
It benefits from a less is more approach to the comic action.
It's like a character study on 3 different types of action heroes. The hero cop, the powerhouse renegade, and the suave Bond-like hero.

Plus the bookend segments with assassin Josh Hartnett are awesome.

:( I can't decide

Both movies are totally different :'( like comparing apples and oranges. I guess I'll go Swingers just to keep things even.

I'm gonna make Gretzky's head bleed for Super Fan 99 over here.

Still think Sin City is overrated, but haven't seen Swingers and so I can't really go and vote for it.

One of these days Lock Jaw will see both movies damnit!

I need to see more movies.

Where is week 2 of the TPWW movie club? Week 1 was like a year ago.

Cause I only watch movies when it is part of a club. :mad:

Seen neither, no vote from me.

never saw this Swingers film

<3 Swingers
