Could be in the movies section or the graphic novel section if we had one. I am talking about the movie however and it will be out in August. It's based on the graphic novel infused with plenty of indy-rock and video game references, and with (could be good could be bad) Michael Cera in the leading role. It will also (more than likely) be completely awesome. Watch the full trailer in HD, it rocks.

It was indeed awesome. It will not do well however and many people won't like it.

Saw the trailer for this before viewing SALT about a month ago. Indeed it
looks like it will only be attractive to a limited audience. That being said, I
wanted to check it out. Just not sure I will see it in the theater, which is
probably where it should be viewed.

It does have Edward Wright directing it, which should give it some general appeal. It's got a great visual style as well. Speed Racer also had a distinct visual style, that while it completely flopped, I think was an impressive risk for a film to take. In that respect I hope SP does well, but I think the only way it's going to get rolling s word of mouth as reviews are mostly puzzled by the movie, including someone calling it "Twilight for Boys."
