Are you anxiously awaiting next year’s biggest nerd movie?

You’re not!

What the hell?

OK, yes, League of Extraordinary Gentlemen was, possibly, the second worst comic book movie of all time…I’m looking at you and your bat nipples, Clooney!

But From Hell was solid, and V for Vendetta flat out rocked! So I think we can all be at least guardedly optimistic about the next film installment from Alan Moore’s seriously deranged genius.

The costumes, while not entirely faithful, seem to be a good first step, at any rate.

Hey Chris,

That’s pretty much where our agreement ends.
