I went to see Truth or Dare yesterday (Wadlow's new movie), and it was bad. Not a catastrophe, but the kind of movie you download and watch on a shitty winter sunday, nothing more.

Kick-Ass was fun and original, but Kick-Ass 2 was a terrible, terrible movie. Everything the first one did right, it did wrong. That scene with Hit Girl and the sick stick at school, forcing that girl to throw up and shit herself, and the rape scene of "Night Bitch" that became a joke when the rapist couldn't get hard, was pure cringe. Wadlow should really stick to Direct-to-DVD movies, as he did before.

@Asturgis - I don't think the alternate, of having to adapt the rape scene as it was in the comic, would have been a better choice.

@Asturgis - Really? I loved Kick-Ass 2. Sure, it didn't top Matthew Vaughn's, but that would have been hard for anybody. Care to elaborate on why you thought it was so bad? I'm genuinely curious.

And would you rather have had them use the literal rape scene from the comics? General audiences are typically averse to on-screen rape, implied or otherwise, so it was for the best. Also, those girls deserved what happened to them. If you were okay with Hit Girl's actions in the first one, I don't see why this would have been any different.

Ahh that's right Wadlow did Kick-Ass 2 and that's where everyone started panicking.

He seems like a really cool dude, very down to earth and humble. Give this man the GOTG franchise when Gunn walks away.

KA2 was trash. Mad I spent money on it.

@BlackBeltJones - Kick-Ass 2 was kinda my own personal Phantom Menace in a weird way. Like, how so many people saw Phantom Menace opening day and convinced themselves it was good, and then later they went back and rewatched it and realized “Wow, this sucks”. That’s what happened to me, because I was such a Kick-Ass fanatic (I’d read the books, watched the first movie multiple time, I even played the video game), and I walked out of the theater saying it was good, and I had myself convinced that it was for about 6 months, and then I watched it again on DVD and realized my mistake.

I guess for now I can only dream of a Masters of the Universe movie as great as Thor: Ragnarok.

Kickass2 was terrible and forgettable.

I'm that X-force talk is a waste. But if Sony's dumb @ssses greenlight him to do He-man, consider it screwed.

Huge X-Force fan but I am fine with this project falling apart.

Haven't seen KA2, but regardless of how bad/good it is, I'm bummed we won't see an X-Force movie with DP as a supporting character rather than a lead/co-lead. That would've suited this version of Wade much better than having him carry the weight and tone of a team up film like the one they're grooming now

I'd love to see a He-Man film that didn't take itself too seriously.

Kick-Ass 2 is underrated.

"I wrote a draft and they really liked it.“


Yeaaaaah, the writer of Kick-Ass 2 and True Memoirs of an International Assassin, I bet they liked your draft so much they even put it up on the fridge 😉

He-man is awful. That whole era of cartoons is just so bad and had only survived based on nostalgia. The only good thing to come out of that show is this.

@TheUnworthyThor - @Ha1frican is right. i’d say the dip in quality of kids’ cartoons started with the hanna-barbera era (almost no effort put into the animation process) and by the 80’s, almost everything you saw on tv was a thirty-minute toy commercial, with shitty animation to boot.
Ha1frican
Ha1frican - 4/11/2018, 12:15 PM
@TheRealTomServo - exactly. The vast majority of those shows started out as toy lines that they just threw shows together for after the fact. The only decent ones were GI Joe (one of the few that were established beforehand as a toy) and Transformers and even those were only because they kept going long enough to get better versions
TheRealTomServo
TheRealTomServo - 4/11/2018, 12:46 PM
@Ha1frican - even gi joe and transformers are cynical and soulless in their first incarnations. transformers has built its lore and characters in a much less corporate way since then, and that’s why the franchise has the staying power gi joe doesn’t.
TheUnworthyThor
TheUnworthyThor - 4/11/2018, 1:07 PM
@TheRealTomServo - Regardless that they obviously were commercials for toys they also created something special, something enduring to this day, all these magical worlds and characters, and they were a delight to watch. And I would contend they a no worse than anything I have to watch today.
Ha1frican
Ha1frican - 4/11/2018, 1:20 PM
@TheRealTomServo - yeah... that’s exactly what I just said lol
TheRealTomServo
TheRealTomServo - 4/11/2018, 1:52 PM
@Ha1frican - i meant to tag @TheUnworthyThor in that one, my bad.
TheRealTomServo
TheRealTomServo - 4/11/2018, 1:55 PM
@TheUnworthyThor - just because something endures doesn’t mean it’s inherently good. i have a big time attachment to the puppet master flicks and 90’s tmnt cartoon, but calling either of those things good would be a stretch.

i’m not telling you not to find them delightful. i’m just agreeing with the original comment’s POV.

and i mean that last sentence isn’t true at all. he-man doesn’t hold a candle to someting like gravity falls, gumball, regular show or the ducktales reboot.
TheUnworthyThor
TheUnworthyThor - 4/11/2018, 2:07 PM
@TheRealTomServo - I find every single one of those shows insipid and completely unwatchable.

It obviously always just a matter of opinion but the classic 80’s cartoons are classic for a reason.
TheRealTomServo
TheRealTomServo - 4/11/2018, 2:10 PM
@TheUnworthyThor - ... maybe it’s because everybody watched them as a kid and looks back on them with the rose-tinted goggles of nostalgia?
TheUnworthyThor
TheUnworthyThor - 4/11/2018, 2:13 PM
@TheRealTomServo - Nothing exists in a vacuum, one can only view something though the prism of their own life experiences.
TheRealTomServo
TheRealTomServo - 4/11/2018, 2:20 PM
@TheUnworthyThor - i’d argue these exist in a vacuum.
