I just hope she doesn't become another one of those child stars. I get the feeling though she'll bump the trend, she seems to have a strong support group and a good head on her shoulders. Her advantage is she's been in more mature films which tends to do young actors more good than if she was some product of some studio marketing tv shows or movie for young teens.

True, I think the child stars who rise to fame as representatives of a corporate brand (like Disney or Nickelodeon) have the odds stacked much more against them than someone like Chloe does.

Excited! I bought two tickets to the Fan First Screening of Kick-Ass 2 on August 14, but saw the listing and all mention of it removed from Fandango's website a few days ago.
I just got this email response from Fandango: Quote:

According to fandango, the movie is 1hr 47 minutes. How disappointing if true.

Yeah, what's wrong with over 90 minutes for an action comic book movie? We don't need introductions anymore so we can cut through all of the fat and get to the stuff people want to see. HitGirl to kick some ass.

It is only 10 minutes shorter that Kick-Ass, but I guess because of trends like the Dark Knight Trilogy people think each movie must be longer than the previous. I will be happy if it is true to comics (which it seems to be already), just as good as the first if not better, and Chloë Grace Moretz steals it just like she did in the first even if she is older and the novelty of a 11 year old assassin superhero has worn off.

Also, that run-time is fine in theory, but I've been reading feedback that thought they tried to cram too much into that time and that it could've used a bit more breathing room. That was only one or two people that mentioned that, though, so who knows.

I want to release my review, but there's an embargo right now. At least I think there is...

I am told when doing my job that unless I signed a NDA it is fair game.

So you had seen it when you made your previous post in this thread?

This movie has more story to tell than Kick-Ass did, and if its shorter, it'll likely feel crammed.

I talked to someone who has seen it. He liked it and says it lived up to the first one. Then again, he likes everything.

I've seen several fan reviews that say, "If you liked the first one, you'll like this one." Which, considering none of them seemed blown away by it, seems like another way of saying, "it's good enough." I'm not expecting it to have the magic of the first one, and I'm certainly not expecting it to be as well-crafted, but I'm still expecting it to be a good time and a solid expansion of these characters and their world.

Holy smokes....it seems like they are releasing every frame of footage for this movie in clips and trailers!
I've avoided almost all of it though, so I'm going in spoiler-free and will see key moments for the first time when I watch the movie. I did read the KA2 comic....but that was before I knew they were doing a sequel. I avoided reading the Hit Girl comic though...it's sitting on a shelf waiting for me after I see the movie. Quote:

Carrey gave this movie more pub than it ever would have had. I was almost wondering if it was a ploy by the studio at first.

It came literally out of nearwhere and it's on par with Superman, Batman'89 and Spider-Man. If the sequel comes close the first one it will be a success. |
