I remember hearing on the radio randomly that (months/years? later) they had ruled her death a murder.

At 08:00 (16:00 GMT) on December 20, 2009, the Los Angeles Fire Department responded to "a medical request" at the Los Angeles home Murphy and Monjack shared. She had apparently collapsed in a bathroom. Firefighters attempted to resuscitate Murphy on the scene. She was transported to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, where she died at 10:04 after going into cardiac arrest.

Shortly after her death, Assistant Chief Coroner Ed Winter told the Associated Press: "It appears to be natural." An autopsy was performed the day after she died. Her death certificate listed the cause of death as "deferred". On February 4, 2010, the Los Angeles County coroner stated that the primary cause of Murphy's death was pneumonia, with secondary factors of iron-deficiency anemia and multiple drug intoxication. On February 25, 2010, the coroner released a report stating that Murphy had been taking a range of over-the-counter and prescription medications, with the most likely reason being to treat a cold or respiratory infection. These included "elevated levels" of hydrocodone, acetaminophen, L-methamphetamine and chlorpheniramine. All of the drugs were legal and the death was ruled to be an accident, but the report observed: "the possible adverse physiological effects of elevated levels of these medications cannot be discounted, especially in her weakened state."

On December 24, 2009, Murphy was buried at Forest Lawn Memorial Park - Hollywood Hills.

On May 23, 2010, her widower Simon Monjack was found dead at the same Hollywood Hills residence. In July 2010, Los Angeles Assistant Chief Coroner Ed Winter stated that the cause of his death was acute pneumonia and severe anemia. It was reported that the Los Angeles County Department of Health had considered toxic mold in their house as a possible cause of the deaths, but this was dismissed by Ed Winter, who stated that there were "no indicators" that mold was a factor. Murphy's mother Sharon described the reports of mold contributing to the deaths as "absurd" and went on to state that inspecting the home for mold was never requested by the Health Department. In December 2011, Sharon Murphy changed her stance, announcing that toxic mold was indeed what killed her daughter and son-in-law, and filed a lawsuit against the attorneys who represented her in an earlier suit against the builders of the home where her daughter and son-in-law died.

On January 11, 2012, her father Angelo Bertolotti applied to the Superior Court of California requesting that the Los Angeles County Coroner's Office be required to hand over samples of his daughter's hair for independent testing. The suit was dismissed on July 19, 2012 after Bertolotti failed to show up to two separate hearings.

In November 2013, Angelo Bertolotti claimed that a toxicology report showed that deliberate poisoning by heavy metals, including antimony and barium, was a possible cause of Brittany Murphy's death. Sharon Murphy described the claim as "a smear".

OOooh Eva, have my babies.

The trailer didn't do much except completely spoil the movie or so it would seem. I now have no desire to even see it.

I googled it:
Didn't Marv die, why is he in this movie?

Sin City stories were not originally published in chronological order. The first book, (later titled The Hard Goodbye (THG), was published first, but Marv's execution, after 18 months of death-row, is the last event in the Sin City timeline. For example, the story That Yellow Bastard (TYB) was published as the 4th book, but Hartigan's suicide takes place approximately four years before Marv meets Goldie for the first time. The fact that Marv's execution is the last event is based on a comment by Miller, but in the short story 'And Behind Door Number Three...' (ABDN3) Wendy appears to be wearing Marv's necklace (the cross); if she is, then Marv gave it to her the last night before his execution, so ABDN3 might actually take place after Marv died, but it's not certain). So, every time you see a character who we've seen die in a previous movie, it simply means that the particular story takes place before his/her death. The stories A Dame To Kill For (ADTKF) and the (yet untitled) Unshelved Nancy Story (UNS) (which have been confirmed for the second movie) take place between the ending of TYB and the beginning of THG, the former partly overlapping THG. In Sin City, dead characters stay dead. No-one is brought back from the dead. Marv was killed in the first book (and movie), but he has appeared in other stories that take place before those events

Okay, now explain the canon for how Clive Owen morphed into Josh Brolin as Dwight.

Josh Brolin is basically his old face, as Hatorade stated the stories aren't chronological. In the first movie they elude to this face change quite a bit, if I remember it right.

Edit: Chuck beat me lol

And Miho and Michael Clarke Duncan!?! They couldn't dig up his corpse? They couldn't track down whatever escort service Devon Aoki works for now?

Miho is in the new season of Arrow.

Is it just me or did the revolver Alba's character shot sound exactly like the sound byte from Doom for the pistol?
