I'm looking forward to the film adaptation of Zsa Zsa Zaturnah, but only because I loved the comics on which it is based (I'm not so hot about the cast that they assembled, or the director that they chose to helm it).
The film is great fun and has some depth, but it is still predictable and does not offer much of anything new in terms of its plot.
The films themselves are brilliant works of cinematic and musical art, with adrenaline-pumping fight sequences (among the best in any film I've seen), heart- and foot-thumping music, and just pure geekdom fantasies come true.
