Stephen Schleicher began his career writing for the Digital Media Online community of sites, including Digital Producer and Creative Mac covering all aspects of the digital content creation industry. He then moved on to consumer technology, and began the Coolness Roundup podcast. A writing fool, Stephen has freelanced for Sci-Fi Channel's Technology Blog, and Gizmodo. Still longing for the good ol' days, Stephen launched Major Spoilers in July 2006, because he is a glutton for punishment.

I gotta be honest, I am really torn as to whether I want to see this movie. I mean it looks like a lot of fun and really cool, but every time I see Hit Girl and hear her dropping “c-bombs” and “f-bombs” I cringe a little inside. I mean I know this is part of the gimmick of the movie (“oh look the little girl said a swear word and then killed a guy, how terribly unusual….”), but still I just don’t know if I would enjoy watching that for two hours. I think every time something like that happened it would just be really jarring and pull me out of the movie.
Don’t get me wrong I am not hypersensitive or a prude by any standards, this just doesn’t sit right with me……
I am probably a 50% of seeing this movie at this stage.

-C!
Have yet to read Kick-Ass but this looks like cool
!
Nick Cage is starting to worry me as Big Daddy. I don’t remember the comic ever portraying him as nerdy/geeky as in this trailer.
@Callumn – yeah, you probably won’t enjoy this movie. Stay far away from the final issue of the book.
I know this is gonna sound stupid, but i don’t think that reading the comic book would bother me at all……?

I am stoked about this movie and I know nothing of the comic book so I am cool with that.
