Sin City & Sin City: A Dame to Kill For

It's the 20th Anniversary of Sin City, and the 10th Anniversary of Sin City: A Dame to Kill For...

...but do I really need an excuse to run these kool, rarely-seen pix?
In alphabetical order, Jessica Alba, Rosario Dawson, Clive Owen, and Bruce Willis.
And if you can't tell who's who, you're reading the wrong blog, bunkie!

HELL'S KITCHEN'S "Sin City"-Inspired Opening Credits!

Hell's Kitchen has shown credits inspired by giant robots, horror movies, and sci-fi...
...now they're doing comic book movies, in particular, Sin City!
It's cute, but more a mundane's concept than a pro or even serious fan's approach.
(But it is better than the opening for Comic Book Men, supposedly supervised by pro/serious fan Kevin Smith..)

Fantastic Femmes--Rosario Dawson

Note: this page has been updated with NEW info HERE!
Rosario Dawson straddles the line between being a fanboy dream goddess and being a fangirl herself with surprising ease. (And, no, I'm not going to make any obvious jokes...)
Why do we say she's a "fangirl"? Besides being a hardcore Trekker and comic book fan, Rosario is also the creator /co-writer of the comic book Occult Crimes TaskForce (the lead character Sophia Ortiz is illustrated in her image).
As for being a "fanboy dream goddess"...if you've seen Sin City, GrindHouse, or even Adventures of Pluto Nash (She and Pam Grier are the ONLY reasons to bother with that turkey!) you wouldn't be wondering about the designation...
Rosario is one of the more civic-minded performers in show-biz, devoting her time and her name to a wide variety of causes including voter registration, gay rights, preventing domestic violence, and conservation. Very cool!
Trivia:
She co-starred with Tracie Thoms twice, in Rent (where she & Tracie were the only lead performers not from the Broadway version) and GrindHouse presents: Quentin Tarantino's Death Proof / GrindHouse "Death Proof".
Rosario performs her own singing in every film her on-screen persona sings in (Rent, Josie & the Pussycats, and Adventures of Pluto Nash) and she's on the soundtrack albums of all of them!

Genre appearances include...
Percy Jackson and the Olympians: the Lightning Thief (Persephone)
Haunted World of El SuperBeasto (Velvet Von Black)
Wonder Woman [2009] (Artemis)
KillShot (Donna)
Gemini Division [webisodes] (Anna Diaz, producer)
Eagle Eye (Zoe Perez)
Grindhouse Presents: Quentin Tarantino's Death Proof / Grind House "Death Proof" (Abernathy)
Clerks II (Becky)
Devil's Rejects [edited from film, scenes on DVD version] (Nurse Marcia)
Sin City (Gail)
RunDown (Mariana)
Adventures of Pluto Nash (Dina Lake / performer: "It's Alright")
Men in Black II (Laura Vasquez)
Josie & the Pussycats (Valerie Brown / performer on all "Pussycats" songs)
