Let's Watch! The Spirit (2008)

Our Moms Think We're Funny

Acomi and Turk182 ask: "What's a perfect example of having everything you need to be successful, and screwing it all up anyway?" The answer: The Spirit (2008). With enough acting talent and visual eye candy to make Hugh Hefner take notice, and a multi-talented and award winning writer and artist behind the camera, and based on an award winning graphic novel created by THE award wining comic creator, who would've thought The Spirit (2008) would be so bad even the Ghostbuster would say no to capturing him? "That's just damn weird."

Marvel, DC, Dark Horse comic writer and artist Frank Miller wrote and directed this movie loosely based on the comic book series/graphic novels by Will Eisner. Police officer Denny Colt is resumed dead, but is brought back to life and fights crime as the mysterious vigilante known as The Spirit. "We was there."

Dressed in a long coat and hat, with Converse sneakers, and a domino mask, and armed with twin colt pistols, and pheromones that make him irresistible to women, The Spirit fights crime in Central City and tries to bring down the underworld criminal leader known as the Octopus. "We saw it."

Horrible, boring, and just damn weird... "That's just damn weird." We can't imagine the 1987 made-for-television version starring Sam Jones of Flash Gordon and Nana Visitor of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine could be any worse.

Join Acomi and Turk as they curse Denny Colt being brought back to life, and the idea that a little person would recognize someone solely by a photocopy of their butt. "We was there. It's just damn weird." Let's Watch! The Spirit (2008).

Acomi and Turk182, along the occasional special guest, provide running commentary of awfulsome movie and TV shows. The hosts select movies that either one, or both, have never seen. All jokes and comments are improvised. NO PREPARED JOKES OR COMMENTS!

During recording, the movies are watched at a low volume and with the subtitles on. Viewers may want to turn subtitles on as well to enhance the viewing experience.

So, cue up the audio, ready the movie, and hit play when we say so.

Note: This video is the commentary recorded by Acomi and Turk182, and selected screenshots. It is NOT a viewable copy of the film. The commentary can be enjoyed on its own, but if you want to experience the Let's Watch in all its glory, you'll need your own copy of the movie. Most of the movies viewed can be streamed online for free.
