I'm a fan of the comic book…but what really has me hook to go see the movie is the talent behind the camera as I love his previous work. And judging by the trailer it looks very, very promising. I'm excited.

Yes, this avant-garde work of art might be too bold for mainstream audiences. Are you fucking kidding me?

This looks like a rom-com set in a Nintendo 8-bit video game. Fucking awesome. Somebody is finally trying to make something we haven't seen before. I'm on board.

Anon, how can he be castrated when it's pretty obvious he kicks the crap out of 7 dudes? Enjoy your bowl of crazy…

What's there to "get" about this?

Could it be the ssri drainage into public waters? The anger of women betrayed by the excess and degradation of Sex in The City skank propaganda, creating cold, castrating authoritarians? What sociopharmamnesiac storm could have led to the creation of mewling, repulsive, pubis-free Industry Creation Michael Cena?
This is like a Nickelodeon series with hints of tit.

All I'm saying is, normal adults will not go see this movie because as you pointed out, it looks juvenile, but then it's not really for kids either, thus no audience. Now I could care less about a film finding an audience, unlike some people I guess, because the movie will exsist for your pleasure whether it makes 100 mil or 1 mil. Sure it's a shame if a good film doesn't make movie I suppose, but I don't think this will be a good film. Hopefully I'm wrong as Kick-Ass looked juvenile but then was a pretty good movie.

We're not trying to validate anything. "Kick-Ass" failed to find an audience and it was a much "easier" sell than this. Universal still has their work cut out for them (which they have admitted themselves) to make this interesting for non-fans.

Also, the last Michael Cera movie based on a beloved teenagerish property was "Youth In Revolt" (which broadly speaking, has a similar vibe). Look at how well that did.

It looks retarded…like seriously.

That said, great trailer. Also, is it just me or is Kieran Culkin surprisingly funny in that trailer?

Hope not though.

Really well cut, and wiped away any lingering doubts I had about the finished film. Particularly love that the drum is labelled 'Drum'.

Mega pumped about this. 🙂
