above is the trailer for kick-ass, one of my most hotly anticipated films of the coming year. everything i've heard about this makes my toes tingle (so hard! my toes they tingle!) with anticipation. having said that, i'm not sure whether or not i want to know anything about the plot in advance. should i read the comic so as to be able to compare the film to the original material? should i go in completely blind and take the film independent from the comic? it's so complicated...

here's the a fan made trailer for the comic by mark millar & john romita jr
