Kick-Ass 2 (2013)

Instant Comments:
1a: Uh... wow. Funny in the sole context of the movie, but clearly dangerous. Namely he could have moved to block the shot and be injured. And therefore very dangerous if a kid were to watch such a scene. The movie is technically rated R, but that in practice does not stop young viewers from seeing what would be considered extremely unsafe.
1a: As he's narrating and saying he was the first superhero to go public, I realized I didn't remember much and tried to look for a recap. I didn't and began watching a "Everything Wrong With Kick-Ass In 7 Minutes Or Less" YouTube video which did jog my memory. In it, there was a scene where where Big Daddy shoots Hit Girl in the chest while she's wearing a bullet-proof vest which was echoed at the beginning of this movie.
1a: LOL. What. "I became a superhero because of Kick-Ass"
1a: Ha. She was assisting with his one-arm pull-ups
1a: Oh... I forgot Christopher Mintz-Plasse was in this series. Though I thought he was a villain [technically he starts off as a superhero, but is a central antagonist, and due to the death of his father (a crime boss) would be seeking revenge
1a: Red Mist
1a: Yikes he just killed his mom on accident (and having also screamed "I... wish... you... were... dead..." in the process of it).
1a: Hahaha. The anal beads
1a: Paused at the 12 minute mark
1b: Motorcycle.
1b: Smile. "You got my soup."
1b: Huh. She's going through with the promise.
1b: Haha. His supervillain costume.
1b: "The Motherfucker"
1b: Hehe. The old man warns him about hte recoil if he doesn't hold the gun properly and a moment later he gets hit by the recoil
1b: "Maybe I'll jam my foot up your ass"
1b: Haha. She gets feelings from the music video
1b: Mindy would probably just channel some fighting
1b: The execution of Mindy's tryout was well done.
1b: Huh. What do I recognize this actor from. Oh, I think he's Wong in the Marvel series.
1b: As he's talking to the bouncer, I get the feeling Mindy shows up
1b: Ouch. That's cold. ("date ditch")
1b: Oh no... (Javier); why couldn't he just have had Chris beat up
1b: "50,000 per week, plus expenses"
1b: Huh. I would have thought glass on cop cars would be bullet proof. [it seems like the the answer is generally no, with testing of it being installed in some cars; it seems some answers floating around that an obstacle is that it's expensive, that there are cases where an officer may want to shoot through the glass, to which one would need one-way bullet-resistant glass, but that would drive the cost up even more; other reasons given is that bullet proofing material adds weight, and that aside from the glass, other elements of the car are not bullet proof either (one response in a Reddit thread mentioned his unit had "ballistic panels in our driver and passenger front doors")
1b: Paused. While away I realized that perhaps Kick-Ass's dad would become a superhero - given that he's always working out, his son questioned what for and said his dad is now useless
1b: Resume.
1b: She tears off the door and it seems to offer her some protection against the gunfire.
1b: Smile. "50,000, she's worth it."
1b: Lawnmower.
1b: Wow. His dad takes the wrap.
1b: I feel like that's a white lie where he just fights crime without an outfit or a new outfit
1b: Oh, I didn't write it down, but I knew Todd would join the bad guys. He might regret it at some point.
1b: Marcus calls out to Mindy. Is Mindy hinding under the van?
1b: LOL. How is she alive from all that fire. Just lucky? Tactical dodging? Maybe a combination?
1b: Is Kick-Ass going to wear Big Daddy's suit?
1b: Huh. Todd says "He's kidding, right?" What did he expect?
1b: Huh. Is Chris really matched for Kick-Ass?
1b: "I'm immortal. Like an evil Jesus"
1b: Moment of truth. Is it a dead shark or not.

Credits:
1b: Post-credits. Motherfucker is alive but heavily injured and his dick was bit off by the shark
