Anyone else looking forward to this? It's another one of those wannabe superhero comedies. It's from James Gunn, who also did Slither, and stars Rainn Wilson as "Crimson Bolt", Ellen Page as his sidekick and Kevin Bacon as the villain. Couldn't find a trailer, but below is a link to a sweet clip

LMAO that was hilarious.
Yeah, I've been looking forward to this.
Got pretty average reviews though.
Hahaha I have to say, that I'm looking forward to this.
Get the Adobe Flash Player to see this video.
"I'm pretty sure it was him" =D
Bizarre movie. Real dark, even depressing sometimes. Acting was tops though. Who else has checked it out?
Yeah I did a while ago, so unexpectedly dark and incredibly brutally funny.
Yeah, I thought it was alright.
Not quite what i was expecting but in a good way, Ellen page was awesome.
Was this really necessary though? I mean.... Defendor, Kick Ass, Griff the Invisible pretty much covers it already doesn't it?
You can never have enough wannabe superhero movies :P But really you could say the same thing about most of the movies that come out these days.
Yeah, but I'd call wannabe superhero movies more of a novel idea, something that once it's done it's done. Blockbuster action movies, romcoms etc will never become novel.
Wasn't this made before Kick Ass and Griff? Maybe even Defendor. This film has been floating around for years.
Yeah, and since it's an independent film it would have been in the works for much longer.
Bad timing if anything.
There was also Paper Man. Although I don't know how strongly that is a wannabe superhero movie.

Ah, that's a shame for it then. I'll probably check it out at some point, it's just hard to get excited about it when it just seems like a clone of the others.
When is Ellen Page not awesome?
There's only so much you can do with these kind of movies, and in all honesty, whichever one came first I don't care, Kick-Ass is the be-all and end-all of wannabe superhero movies and nothing that's come out since has topped it.

Indeed, I love Kick-Ass.

I think Defendor was a nice twist though and I really did enjoy that movie. I loved that he did it for reasons other then 'sick of world', 'sick of baddies', 'sick of people getting away with shit'... he did it cause he had his own mental illnesses going on, he had no real idea what he was doing.
I finally saw this. Didn't really enjoy it. Was cool at first but it got really shit once Ellen Page entered the frame. Not her fault, that was just the point in the film where it became unenjoyable.

Has nothing on Gunn's other film Slither.
