Looking forward to this. Looks like a fun movie.

Re: Kick Ass (2010)

The guy who wrote the comic (Mark Millar - one of the more visionary comic book writers out there right now), is involved, and it's really faithful to the comic series.

I have very high hopes for it, and I'm waiting to hear if it's any good when it screens at the SXSW festival that's coming up.

Re: Kick Ass (2010)

I follow Millar a bit on The Ultimates, Ultimate Fantastic Four, and The Authority but haven't read Kick Ass. It's drawn by Romita Jr whom I'm a fan of as well, but the premise for the comic just didn't appeal to me (more into Millar's epic big screen style on comic action). This trailer looked fun though, kinda reminded me of Mystery Men but maybe/probably not as comedic/campy.

Re: Kick Ass (2010)

It's funny because the comic is a lot looser in the sense of mood compared to Millar's other works, but campy isn't the word I'd use to describe it, as it moves into some pretty dark and very violent territory through the series (and from what I understand is kept intact with the film - expect a bit of controversy to accompany the movie when it comes out in April).

It's a bit more sober and a bit less fantastic (in the sense that the super heroes are more simply costumed vigilantes like the Watchmen than anyone possessing any supernatural powers). The story arc however was very well done, and very, very funny.
