Kick-Ass Posters and Site Launched
IGN has posted up four promotional posters for the highly anticipated Kick-Ass. Those who read the comic know the story, but here’s a brief explanation for those who don’t:
A twisted, funny, high-octane adventure, director Matthew Vaughn brings KICK-ASS to the big screen.
KICK-ASS tells the story of average teenager Dave Lizewski (Aaron Johnson), a comic-book fanboy who decides to take his obsession as inspiration to become a real-life superhero. As any good superhero would, he chooses a new name — Kick-Ass — assembles a suit and mask to wear, and gets to work fighting crime. There’s only one problem standing in his way: Kick-Ass has absolutely no superpowers.
His life is forever changed as he inspires a subculture of copy cats, is hunted by assorted violent and unpleasant characters, and meets up with a pair of crazed vigilantes, including an 11-year-old sword-wielding dynamo, Hit Girl (Chloë Moretz) and her father, Big Daddy (Nicolas Cage).
Along with these posters, the official site is up, counting down to the trailer to be released next Saturday. Not that anyone has seen it already….or…anything….*cough*. Enjoy!

[...] Late last week, posters for KICK-ASS surfaced on the web, along with a re-design of the official site. The countdown was set to end this Saturday, but it looks like we’ll be getting that teaser trailer a little early. It’s not like the one shown at Comic-Con and the opening scene looks EXTREMELY faithful to the comic. Check it out below.
