I was expecting a really grown up Chloe Moretz here in this new movie but it seems like that's not the case. I remember talking to Mark Millar about this and him telling me and the rest of the Flipgeek's crew that there are some liberties taken from the source material and the film adaptation including the challenge of Ms. Moretz 'growing up' during production and in between the two movies.
Anyway, regardless of that, watch the red band (meaning rated R) trailer for the KICK ASS 2 after the cut.
It's nice that they have Jim Carrey here but knowing what will happen to the guy in the middle makes me sad. Also, is it just me or is the violence tapered down. I kinda remember the cemetery scene to be more.... bloody.
Also I suddenly remember that there the Motherfucker and his gang of psychopaths did a shooting spree in Katie's neighborhood and did something horrible afterwards. Will that bit make it into the big screen adaptation?
Check out some of the cool images coming from the trailer as well:
KICK ASS 2 Synopsis:
Kick-Ass, Hit Girl and Red Mist return for the follow-up to 2010’s irreverent global hit: Kick-Ass 2. After Kick-Ass’ (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) insane bravery inspires a new wave of self-made masked crusaders, led by the badass Colonel Stars and Stripes (Jim Carrey), our hero joins them on patrol. When these amateur superheroes are hunted down by Red Mist (Christopher Mintz-Plasse)—reborn as The Mother F%&*^r—only the blade-wielding Hit Girl (Chloë Grace Moretz) can prevent their annihilation.
When we last saw junior assassin Hit Girl and young vigilante Kick-Ass, they were trying to live as normal teenagers Mindy and Dave. With graduation looming and uncertain what to do, Dave decides to start the world’s first superhero team with Mindy. Unfortunately, when Mindy is busted for sneaking out as Hit Girl, she’s forced to retire—leaving her to navigate the terrifying world of high-school mean girls on her own. With no one left to turn to, Dave joins forces with Justice Forever, run by a born-again ex-mobster named Colonel Stars and Stripes.
Just as they start to make a real difference on the streets, the world’s first super villain, The Mother F%&*^r, assembles his own evil league and puts a plan in motion to make Kick-Ass and Hit Girl pay for what they did to his dad. But there’s only one problem with his scheme: If you mess with one member of Justice Forever, you mess with them all.
