Man Has Nose Bitten Off In Fight Over Bruce Willis Film
<snip>

SYDNEY, Australia -- A movie fan had his nose bitten off outside an Australian cinema in an argument over the quality of the violent new Bruce Willis movie "Sin City," police said.

The 19-year-old victim underwent surgery to reattach the tip of his nose following the brawl Sunday night outside a movie theater in Bathurst, 125 miles west of Sydney.

Bathurst police Inspector Cameron Lindsay said the victim and his attacker got into a fight over the merits of the film, an adaptation of Frank Miller's graphic novel about a wicked metropolis filled with tough guys and gorgeous dames. The movie has been praised by critics for its dark, computer-generated imagery and criticized for its nonstop violence.

Police were still hunting for the attacker.

"There's been an argument, apparently over how good the movie was, and then an altercation," Lindsay said.

3. Ah, the stratified heights of polite, civilized debate demonstrated.
What does one do for a proverbial "encore"?

4. Sin City was good
but not good enough to bite off someone's nose. Maybe their fingers though....
