Re: Kick-Ass
So you're saying the fact that this film had widespread advertising means said advertising was misleading? Nonsense. Consider this...midian wrote:my point was about advertising.
Most R-rated films don't get red-band trailers. This one got not one, not two, but three. Its advertising was in no way misleading. People made the same comments about Watchmen, complaining that they couldn't take their kids to see them (though in America, it's rather scary because they can and some did).
My advice, not just to you but to everyone: stop associating superheroes with kids. You can if you like associate superheroes with comics, but know that (with the exception of titles like the Beano, the Dandy, etc) mainstream comics have not been suitable for children for the last 25 years. Comics from the 60s may be safe for PG-13/12A adaptations (which, most people don't realise, is a direct replacement for the old 12 rating - most parents regard it the same as PGs), but to have thought that an adaptation of a comic from the last couple of years (let alone this one!) would be kid-friendly is seriously f**ked up.

Re: Kick-Ass
I had to go to the loo half way through as I didn't have toime to go before it started, and I didn't even realise there was a toilet right outside! I trekked all the way down to the dungeon to goBeate wrote:He he, there was certainly a lot of waving going on!TheyCallMeMrGlass wrote:
Not only were the rest of the fmukers were there but they all seemed to have accidentally sat next to each other, lol.
Btw, a tip for going to the loo after the film at the Haymarket - if you don't want to be stuck in a queue a mile long, go to the downstairs ones - not only are there more cubicles, but there is hardly anyone in there!
