Coolest Movie Promotion Ever??? Robert Rodriguez - Why Isn't This In Austin?!?!?!?

Hey folks, Harry here... I remember back around the time of the permiere for SIN CITY here in Austin, I really was bemoaning the fact that the afterparty for SIN CITY really belonged in a local "Gentleman's Club" - but that none of those in Austin really fit. It was a conversation I had with some animators at Stubb's while Nick "Yellow Bastard" Stahl was woofing down BBQ. Well, leave it to the fantastic, miraculous, genius culture of the Japanese to take Movie Promotion to its logical ends. They made a club/restaurant/stripper-performers/bar that was opened to promote the film in September - and is closing at the end of the year. BUT - with more SIN CITY coming - and a possible Television franchise... Why not open a series of SIN CITY joints around the country. Go all out. Hire someone reputable to make the first one (here in Austin) and just let go from there. I mean, imagine NANCY lapdances where she really is topless and really does have that Miller-esque physique. Why not just go crazy like the lovely Japanese! A series of SIN CITY clubs are certainly more tantalizing than PLANET HOLLYWOOD or HARD ROCK CAFES. This could be the 21st Century Playboy clubs! And it would certainly sell SHITLOADS of fetishry. The Japanese are right! Follow their lead! GENIUS! Vast sums of money are being left unstripped from the horny clutches of American Men wanting this concept to take flight!

Hi, Harry and Moriarty,

I thought you guys might find this cool: There's a Sin City theme bar and restaurant in Tokyo to promote the movie's theatrical run in Japan. It opened Sept. 16 and will close at the end of the year.
