Bob ‘The Bitch’:
In an adaptation of Will Eisner’s classic comic, The Spirit, Scarlett Johanson is set to play a sexy nurse. On paper this is the greatest idea for a movie ever. Even better than when some writer decided to have schwarzenegger say, ‘GET TO THE CHOPPER’ in every movie. The only problem is that the nurse outfit is…well, not how I always dreamed it could be. I’m sure some righteous ass of a directed wanted to stay ‘true’ to the character in the script. But I say Booo! Shame on you. Having Scarlett Johanson play a sexy comic book nurse is the opportunity of a lifetime. That’s like having the winning lottery ticket but refusing to cash it in because you don’t think it ‘seems right’. Grow up. You cash that ticket every time. Director of The Spirit, you still have time. Open the door…open the door.
Below are just a few rough sketches of what I think Johanson’s costume should look like. I’d love to hear your thoughts.
