So Kick Ass 2 is coming out soon, and early indications.. well, aren't great. You know those interviews the actors do to promote the movie? Don't expect Jim Carrey, who plays Colonel Stars, to do any of them, unless he's telling you what a horrible world we live in and how you're a terrible person for wanting to watch such violent filth. www.comicbookmovie.com/fansites/notyetamovie/news/?a=82104So, yeah. I'm just checking, was Sandy Hook the first terrible thing to happen in the world? In fact, was it the first school shooting in the world? Didn't think so, so why it's OK to put all the atrocities of war and Columbine and, y'know, what goes on every fucking day, to one side and take part in (and pocket millions of dollars for) a tongue in cheek action movie but suddenly baulk and go all radical conscious because of something that happened recently is just plain stupid. Jim, I'm a fan of (some of) your work but you just sound like a pretentious dick here.

Not only pretentious, but atrociously naive and ignorant. I am so utterly sick and tired of idiots who can't differentiate between real life tragedy and entertainment, or actually believe that the latter causes the former, that I can't even properly rant about it anymore.

Totally. It's kinda bummed me as well, because I loved the first movie but watching this now I'm gonna feel like I'm being judged by the fucking star of it for daring to enjoy myself.
