Heh. It's gone now, but the IMDb FAQ for the movie used to have the question "Why is the Mayor wearing eyeliner?"
It's clearly an F aq...if I'm thinking it, loads of other people are too. Was there an answer? And I wonder why they would remove it.

The answer was his eyelashes. I assume they removed it because it was silly and not very relevant to the movie.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah, it's just what he looks like. [link]

Why is the Mayor wearing eyeliner?
That's so funny! That's the one thing my 16 y.o. brought up, she said it was distracting to her too. I had to remind her that's what he always looks like.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
it is very distracting. They could have thinned them, or made him wear flesh-colored mascara. Not as distracting as the bat-voice. I noticed on my third or fourth viewing of the Watchmen trailer that Rorschach's voice is quite similar but it seems appropriate for Rorschach.

The funny thing about the Mayor being Batmanuel was that I kept expecting him to go evil.

I just watched Onegin. I thought it was a bit of a nothing story until I looked it up on Wikipedia and found that Pushkin's original was all about how the story was told, not what it was about. I wonder what inspired Martha Fiennes to make it a family project. It was very pretty. The Liv Tyler and Ralph Fiennes numminess was worth the slot in my Netflix queue. But it was another one of those movies where the credits rolled and I said, "that's the end?"

Since there was some Frank Miller talk in here, I have a question. I've only seen the movie of Sin City, which I loved. I'm reading Reinventing Comics right now, and Scott McCloud describes Sin City as a "tongue-in-cheek, over-the-top hyper-noir genre send-up." I thought it was supposed to be superserious.
