Robert Rodriguez: I don't really think it's a comic book look, since Frank's comics are so unique, they stand apart from other comics as well. I think the visuals are so compelling, that people can't really label it as a comic book look. It really is something new visually that will excite fans of cinema. I think anyone that likes movies will really enjoy the visual storytelling we do in this movie. It feels very unique and unlike anything seen before.

Miami, FL: If it turns out that you need to make cuts to earn an R rating, can we expect an unrated version on DVD?

Robert Rodriguez: We didn't have any problems with the MPAA, actually. They are usually pretty squeamish, but they found this movie to be so stylized and abstract that the violence was not a problem. They didn't ask us to cut anything.

Washington, DC: I am a big fan of your movies. I could watch "Desperado" over and over again and my boys (11 and 8) could watch all three "Spy Kids" in a row. I am also a big comic book fan. What other comic books do you enjoy/read regularly/would consider translating to the screen?

Robert Rodriguez: I've had the rights to Mike Allred's "Madman" for a number of years and would like to turn that into a movie as well as doing another "Sin City."

Isn't it ironic: Xerox is hoping it can profit by teaching companies how to reduce their printing.
