My eyes stung for a week after that drunken slurring of words... All I wanted was more Saki. What I got has scarred me for life.
Oh My GOD!?!? THER'ES A FETISH THEME IN MY RIBCAGE!!! by LargoJr	Nov 13th, 2005 06:51:42 AM
Sin Shitty was over-hyped, poorly acted, bloated and unsatisfying frozen horseshit on a popsicle stick. It didn't even have enough peanuts or corn to be considered real shit. A theme bar just proves how desperate some folks are to join ANY kind of 'in-crowd'. And Jessica Alba may be a cutie, but she couldn't act her way out of a wet paper bag with a Ginsu Steak Knife, and you ALL KNOW IT.

Those "Kevin" and "Yellow Bastard" drinks scare me. What would you put in them to match the characters?
What would you put in them..? by LargoJr	Nov 13th, 2005 07:03:00 AM
Why piss, of course.
URL for Japanese site is wrong; should be http://www.sincity.jp/ by qualopec	Nov 13th, 2005 07:36:23 AM
The link for the movie's Japanese website goes to its IMDB page instead. It should be: http://www.sincity.jp/
"how is austin suddenly NOT the center of the universe...why did by Thirteen 13	Nov 13th, 2005 07:45:29 AM
Well actualy Austin is no longer the center of the universe for several reasons. Austin has surrendered 6th street to gang members and fratboy shot bars. They have outlawed smoking everywhere even though smoling is still legal. And the only thing that keeps "Austin Weird" are guilty white liberals from Westlake attending Willie Nelson shows. Austin stopped being a cultural Mecca long long long ago. LOL!!!!!
Deviant bastards... by GrandMuffTarkin	Nov 13th, 2005 08:32:13 AM
Those japs are, along with the Germans. Shows you how a socially stifling environment manifests itself into completely depraved sexual debauchery.
Make it a Chikan theme bar and I'm SO THERE by LargoJr	Nov 13th, 2005 09:01:25 AM
BWAHAHAHAAAAA!! You KNOW you want it
Make it a Buckaroo Banzai theme bar and I'm SO THERE by BannedOnTheRun	Nov 13th, 2005 09:42:21 AM
Peter Weller at the piano, a young Ellen Barkin at the bar...
It's not in Austin because we're a little town full of c by Horseflesh	Nov 13th, 2005 09:51:12 AM
And who wants to go to a strip club you can't smoke in thanks to the fucking Armstrong wanna-be health nazi's that ARE NOT going out to these businesses that are LOSING business because of the smoking ban?
crybabies by sith-vol	Nov 13th, 2005 10:04:30 AM
whah whah whah...poor little smokers, quit your damn bellyaching. You can't whip it out and piss all over someone in public either but I don't hear you bitching about that. Sorry but just like I don't want someone's urine all over me, I do not want to breathe someone's cancer spew in either, and in closing, anyone who refuses to look at naked tities bouncing in their face unless they can take a drag from a cancer stick, really needs to re-examine their priorities.
2nd that....SC theme restaurant - TACKY by Babba-Booey	Nov 13th, 2005 10:06:15 AM
Are we sure Frank Miller approved?
The Japanese. God bless those little bat shit crazy bastards by Citizen Arcane	Nov 13th, 2005 10:22:50 AM
Having put many a stripper through college in my 28 years, strip clubs are kind of boring to me now unless I can get a full lap dance and a phone number but I'm sure there's a market for this. If they kept the nudity at a PG-13 level they might even get to stay open. Make the entire restaurant black and white. There won't be any gay guys in there so no one will complain. While we're recreating Robert Rodriguez sets, I'd like to see a Titty Twister in my town too so let's get moving on that.
Sin City.... by emeraldboy	Nov 13th, 2005 10:56:16 AM
How many more people will rave about Sin City 2 when they realise that after the first Rober Rodriguez released Shark Boy and Lava Girl, arguably the worst film of his career. I saw Sin City on DVD and couldnt see what all the fuss was about. on the whole I though the film was nasty unsympathetic and cold. In the movies arent there characters that you are supposed to root for. Well there werent any in Sin City. Robert Rodriguez does have anknack for special effects and I suppose making a film in black and white does take giant cajones. But next time he should write a better screenplay. The reason why lord of the rings worked was even though Jackson was a fan he didnt just have the fan in mind when he wrote the movies....
a line runs directly from robert rodriguez's ass onto this s by Chief Redcock	Nov 13th, 2005 11:16:11 AM
what comes out of one place ends up at the other. that having been said, this is a neat idea... these look a lot hipper, trendier, and more subcultural (word?) then that planet hollywood b.s. just keep that assclown sylvestor stallone away from it (that's right ABKing, i'm calling you out, bitch!!!) and serve american food, not that japanese weird shit they've got on the menu. also, make sure you have scantily clad women, even if they can't get naked. oh, and i also want a titty twister. that is all.
Why not have one in Houston? We have more strip joint per capita by Big Bad Clone	Nov 13th, 2005 11:16:25 AM
I shit you not.
"Why Isn't This In Austin?!?!?!?" by IAmLegolas	Nov 13th, 2005 11:36:30 AM
You mean studios care about areas outside of NY and LA?
Do they have a Jessica Alba look-alike stripping on-stage? by Forestal	Nov 13th, 2005 12:06:02 PM
I'd go if they did.
gotta love that by jrbarker	Nov 13th, 2005 12:20:06 PM
I love the japs
Yet Another Reason Why Japan Really Is The Coolest Place On Eart by ZombieSolutions	Nov 13th, 2005 12:54:35 PM
having lived there for just over a year working as an English teacher, I can say that Japan really is the coolest place on earth. not just because of the operatic level of meticulous detail and effort put into fetish and geekery, but because you can't not get laid by dozens of cute japanese girls without even trying. break up with your girlfriends, quit your job, get the fuck out of Jesusland (if only for a while) and get yourself some J-action. trust me. it will radically alter your perception of your life on earth. in truth: japan saved my life. i was close to suicidal depression before i went to japan, now i'm the fucking buddha. go. go. go. go. go. go before the next major earthquake sends this wonderful island into the ocean forever. (also: don't be a jerk gaijin and stay there forever. get in, get yer fun, and get out. peace.)
Hmmm, strip clubs catering to fanboys . . . by Nice Marmot	Nov 13th, 2005 01:07:34 PM
. . . just when you thought watching movies was the closest they'd come to getting laid.
Grab your shit Harry by jackinitraw	Nov 13th, 2005 02:13:07 PM
I'll meet you at Sin City. I'll be probably the only white guy there. If there's more than one, I'm the guy planted in perverts row.
Um, sex-hungry nerd much? by s00p3rm4n	Nov 13th, 2005 02:44:30 PM
The concept of a titty bar is lame enough. But a corporate-sponsored, ad-revenue-supporting titty bar? Only a straight man would think of something like this.
"Only a straight man would think of something like this." by ZombieSolutions	Nov 13th, 2005 03:39:31 PM
well, duh! your keen insight into the minds of heterosexual male geeks (hipster or otherwise) is truly astounding.

That's all that need to be said.
Harry, where the fuck are the November DVD reviews!! by indiephantom	Nov 13th, 2005 05:44:50 PM
Are you going to make them a regular "end of the month" feature?
Harry's that dude you see in all stripclubs... by kintar0	Nov 13th, 2005 05:47:45 PM
The one who's taking notes in a little spiral bound notebook, who never tips, drinks soda all night, knows all the girls by name and they know him. They patronize him because they feel sorry for him but they also know they're not getting any money out of him. But hey, Harry's too busy attending Uwe Boll screenings to go to stripclubs, right? Fuck any town or city that's in Texas. Hopefully Miller's getting PAID for this.

one problem though; the bars will be filled with REAL people..

Actually most of the bar's guests will be CG.
A Sin City Club won't work because... by nsomnia	Nov 14th, 2005 12:48:43 AM
...no matter how close to the theme it gets, there's one thing you can't duplicate:The crowd. Sin City works because it's a picturesque mix of leather losers and interesting characters; I can't imagine a Sin City Bar full of Knowles-que geeks drooling over some bimbo or some L.A/N.Y Yuppy Celebrities with posse wagons dressed in the latest fashion. The very people who would actually belong would be left outside by a cheesy doorman in a tux.So why don't you all forget about it, drive miles away from your cities, find the divest of the dive bars in the middle of nowhere and share a few beers and stories with the locals. With some luck you'll get your Sin City moment...NSOMNIA OUT

"Why isn't this in Austin!?!?!?!" by LoudmouthCracker	Nov 14th, 2005 08:08:43 AM
Because Austin doesn't fucking deserve it. A few words about the fair town of Austin, folks: it's a shithole, populated largely by stuck-up, pretentious, bourgeois liberal asswipes who are somehow convinced that the entirety of the cultural universe revolves around them and that, unfathomably, a white dude with a feather-adorned hat and a goddamn soul patch is the greatest blues musician in all of recorded history. All you ever hear out of these people is how great Austin is, how they're the "live music capital of the world" or some such, and y'know... if I were into shitty stoner college bands that were all trying to be Ween or Phish, I'd probably dig the Austin music scene, too. Of course, you can't mention the power and the glory of Austin's music scene without discussing 6th Street. Jumping Jesus, what a waste of good real estate THAT place is. As someone mentioned earlier, it's rapidly becoming a haven for gangbangers and fratdaddies. Good. That'll knock 'em down a few pegs. It'll be even better when Austin finally becomes the sort of miserable urban cesspool that Houston is.
They ought to bring this to my hometown... by dr_buggerlugs	Nov 14th, 2005 08:29:23 AM
...good old Derby, England. My home is but a humble city that is a total and utter cultural wasteland. Bring us Sin City and watch it get ran over by townies, slappers and other drunken charisma vacuums...we deserve it!!!!

cesspool, miserable? My home this is. "It'll be even better when Austin finally becomes the sort of miserable urban cesspool that Houston is." Cesspool, miserable? My home this is. "That'll knock 'em down a few pegs. It'll be even better when Austin finally becomes the sort of miserable urban cesspool that Houston is."
