Dem Trailers: Kick-Ass


Ever since the comic book was released, I’ve been hyping up this little part of Mark Millar’s universe. And now, even before the end of the mini-series comes to an end, we’ve got our first look at the film version of the comic. Now from the few screenings that have occurred and the buzz from San Diego Comic Con, all things are pointing towards this being an amazing film. The thing is, this trailer really doesn’t show off anything too impressive. Remember, this film is going to be a hard R rated film and I’m not sure if that point gets across here. Maybe it’s just me but check it out and let me know what you think.

  1. "that's an armenian with a history of mental illness."

    lulz.

    hey, i'm not a big comic fanboy, so this is new to me. looks funny (i'm assuming they are going for witty and whatnot).

    1. Yeah, that line is straight from the book and I was happy to see it made it in the film. That whole opening scene is also exactly how the comic book started, too. It's going to be interesting to see how the film will be absorbed by non-comic book readers when it's finally released.

  2. I followed the comic and I dug it, but I have to say that this trailer blows mammoth penor! I hoped that they'd have retained that Romita Jr./Millar grit and be as raw and brutal as the comic. So far this is SUCK-ASS. One more thing, if that's McLovin' playing Red Mist…. fuck.
