Aaron Johnson's "Kick-Ass" is like Spider-Man, only without all the superhero talent.
Can you tell we’re excited about KICK-ASS? The Marvel comic book brought to the big screen by Matthew Vaughn is easily one of our most anticipated movies of 2010, and just about everything we’ve seen makes it look better and better. We’ve already posted movie poster images and trailers, including the somewhat controversial red-band “Hit-Girl” trailer. Now there’s a new international trailer for KICK-ASS, which is also red-band. Hear “Hit-Girl say the other “C” word, and see a few new scenes not shown in the other teasers and trailers we’ve already watched countless times. Are you as excited about KICK-ASS as we are?
