Appalled is usually a punk word. Punks get appalled. Old British ladies choke on their crumpets when they’re appalled. Your grandmother was appalled when she accidentally turned on BET’s Uncut. A grown man like myself should never be appalled.
I read Kick-Ass and I was appalled. The eight-issue comic book series written by comic genius Mark Millar (Wanted, Ultimate Fantastic Four) just wrapped up last week and if I had a coinpurse, I’d have clutched it while reading. The last issue alone features a 10-year-old girl doing coke and shooting mafia bosses in the scrotes. Awesome!
If the movie lives up to half the craziness of the comic, you’ll be in for a cringe-inducing but thoroughly enjoyable movie. Judging by Hit Girl’s use of the word “cock,” the movie looks like it plans to be true to the book.
While you guys watch the trailer, I’ll be fandangoing my way to an early ticket.
Check out Kick-Ass The Movie.com as well.

watch the Red-Band jaunt…shits crazy lol
oh wait….
Can’t wait for this….hopefully its a more complete film unlike Wanted…that just fell apart in the last 30mins
This looks incredible
this movie will be bonkers. it’s appalling what they did to wanted. even worse, wanted 2 arriving 2011. anything but a reboot of that project is a fail.
lol right my alley David…glad to see other people appreciated the comics.
Even though I’m not a big fan of Millar’s work…I have to admit that Kick-Ass was just a fun read and JRJJ’s art was so perfect for it…as long as they stay true to the comic (unlike the horrible rendition of Wanted) we shall finally see an AWESOME R-Rated comic film (we have had great R-rated graphic novels though: Road to Perdition, History of Violence)
let the contraversy begin
Can’t wait to see this in theaters. I’ve only read up to issue 4.
Red band trailer is soooo much better. Hit Girl FTW!
if this is really a hard R movie then maybe they can sack up and make a movie version of battle royale
There’s already a movie version of Battle Royale. I don’t wanna see the whitewashed version.
While we at it…this is the first time I ever saw a professional writer use comic genius and Mark Millar in the same sentence. I love this site, but, it should stick to music if its gonna say stuff like that.
@ SageShini – Your day job called, they need the squeegee back but that you can keep the nameplate since not many folks are named Assmunch.
