Went to see it yesterday.  Awesome!  I am not into comics and not into film noir, but this was a very-very good movie!

Yeah, I did.  There is no point in watching movies like that on a small screen and I've grown out of sneaking into a movie theater without paying :)

Marv is the hardest dude ever. Even harder than Gandhi.

OK, it looks like you've seen it.  So here is a question for you:  didn't it sound to you that Marv came back as Dwite?  What was up with all those references to Dwite's new face?  Like his girlfrend says: "Jackie-boy was my boyfriend until you showed up with that new face of yours".  And then later he is thinking to himself something along the lines of "It is very convinient for a killer to have new face that no cop can recognize"

I actually saw someone mention that Marv and Dwite appear together in one of the shots, so they must be different people.  Still, that little bit confused the hell out of me.

You're missing the point that Marv is nothing like Dwight. They have completely different personalities. Can you imagine Marv worrying about driving a car full of bodies around? Hell no, he'd have snapped that cop's neck in two and rode on.

And yes, Dwight is in the very first scene in Kadie's bar. He's the one who delivers the "Some people think Marv is crazy..." line.
