Kick-Ass 2 - Caravan Of Garbage

Due to the moderate success of the first Kick-Ass a sequel was greenlit almost immediately titled Kick-Ass 2. With most of the characters returning (despite some recasts) and the addition of new heroes like Jim Carrey's Colonel Stars and Stripes the stakes have never been higher for Dave Lizewski and Hit-Girl! But the vibes are off. Thanks for checking out our Caravan Of Garbage review

My dad worked as a bus driver for several years as a retirement gig. The stories he tells would turn your hair white. Society is truly awful, and I think dealing with the worst of humanity every day would make anyone insane.

This has the issue that the comic has, it wants to be mean and grounded but it ignores reality way too often with the aspects of combat and Hit-Girl.

[@jonbaxter2254]

But she's scrappy!

[@HarryBuddhaPalm]

That's a problem with the first movie as well. The second half totally contradicts the first. The first movie is good enough to look past the flaws, though. The second movie is a pile of dog shit so all the flaws are in full view.

[@projekttaku1]

Its kind of the problem I have with Watchmen's movie. The action is so exaggerated while in the comics its pretty stripped down for the most part. When Ozymandias catches a bullet in the comic its a hype moment that also seems like he couldn't replicate twice, while in the movie its pretty casual, and lacks the foreshadowing of Ozzy telling Nite-Owl he'd just have to catch the bullet.

Thanks for the shoutout. A very strange time in my life. It helped ruin things I took for granted in superhero comics. Like, if Spider-Man gets tossed into the East River, he’d basically be waterboarded in his mask.

Offspring Trivia: The music video for The Offspring's song She's Got Issues features a young Zoey Deschanel. Also when Aragon kicked that helmet he broke his foot.

[@TheMightofDab]

Peter Jackson liked that moment so much that he changed the name of the production title of the movie to "Blue Harvest", in honour of the colour Viggo's toe turned

[@CrowTRobot]

Offspring Trivia: Dexter Holland and Brett Gurewitz were friends turned enemies after Dexter felt betrayed when Brett signed them to a shady contract that was then given to Columbia and they stopped talking. But they resolved things a few years back and started touring again

More trivia: the lady saying “give it to me baby” in Pretty Fly is the voice actor who voiced Asajj Ventriss in the Clone Wars, Nika Futterman. Met her last weekend. Nice lady.

[@robertmorrill3899]

I know who Noodles is. I’m from Orange County and I met him awkwardly in passing a couple of times when I was a teenager. His daughter took piano lessons from my mom.

[@AJeziorski1967]

'Come Out and Play' was definitely the best Offspring song. But then I can only really remember about two of them, plus the weird fact that Dexter Holland got a PhD in molecular biology in 2017.

[@botanicus2921]

[@CrowTRobot]

Every Offspring album has a handful of bangers but Smash still rips all the way through. Gonna go listen to it now.

[@edtechnique]

Not only do I know who Dexter and Noodles are, I also know two facts about them. Dexter has a PhD in molecular biology and Noodles was a janitor at an elementary school when they first started. Didn't even have to Google. I'm just old.

[@Dinkle0706]

gonna need you guys to put some respect on the kids aren’t alright in the top 3 offspring songs please

[@Neophlegm]

Best video too, IMO!

[@LiamDalley-jd1kc]

I feel like the writer and director Jeff Wadlow (who did Cry_Wolf) took what people liked about the original; more violence, more swearing but made it way more mean spirited but they were some elements to like about it. The action is still pretty good and Jim Carrey even though he didn’t like being associated with the film is absolutely great as Colonel Stars and Stripes

[@garinsparks7041]

Have you read the comic version of this film? They actually toned it down believe it or not

[@LiamDalley-jd1kc]

I still need to read the comic. I didn’t realise that the comic is even more extreme than the film

[@LordSeth-hf8ew]

Why didn’t Jim like filming his☹️

[@motherplayer]

@@garinsparks7041 Oh yeah. As someone who read the comic afterward, that is indeed true. I'd say that was a better choice since much of that in the comic just felt mean spirited for edgyness's sake. I even felt a "certain" scene was smartly handled with impotence....

[@bobson3014]

The thing is that while this movie is more mean spirited than the original, the comic it is based on is significantly more mean spirited than the first comic run which was already more mean spirited than the first movie, so this movie would have had a hard time being anything close to an adaptation of the story without being pretty mean spirited.

[@radioaftermaththeband]

Kids Aren't Alright still gets regular play in rock bars around here

[@Calekoflight]

The kids aren't alright aka the theme song from Buffy...unless I have been wrong for 2 and a half decades.

"Hand Grenades" by The Offspring is a song I still listen to regularly. It's a 36 second song featured on the album (Short Music for Short People) that is instructions for making a Molotov cocktail.

[@benmeier5199]

I like using short songs as transitional songs between different bigger parts of a playlist. This will be a fine addition to my collection.

[@nicko3945]

Who needs instructions?! Rag, gas, bottle. No wonder the song is only 36 seconds 🤣

The best Offspring song is “Want You Bad”. And John Leguizamo & Mother Russia are the best additions to this series

[@broodjebamibal]

Making Dave and Mindy kiss is weird because of the age gap and them being way more fun as murderbuddies. It's also weird because Dave's Actor is in a huge agegap relationship himself, where he is the younger one.

[@hosaepalvin9795]

but it was so hot tho.

[@youngrootv]

I want to like this movie, but it is a weird one for me with how much they sexualize Chloe. The creators also making her kiss her adult costar when she was blatantly underaged is gross.

[@solvseus]

In the comics, Hitgirl immediately reverts back to a little girl when all the fighting is over and she realizes her dad is dead. His gf also already had a bf, and was furious he pretended to be gay to get with her. That's why she's not in the sequel. The comics were better.

[@CrypticBore]

Agreed

[@miaborges3674]

I'm the same age as Chloe, so at the time when this movie came out. I was like "she's so cool, she's so lucky! She got to kiss Aaron, he's so cute!", but LMAO safe to say, as an adult now, looking back on it. Yeah those were some very odd choice(s) for this movie. Like they were trying to erase the very real age gap both the actors and characters had between them. It's a little uncomfortable to watch now 😂

[@jonbaxter2254]

Also she was still very underage during. Think she was like 16?

I remember KA and HG kissing at the end making me cringe even as a kid because absolutely nothing about their relationship throughout the movie felt like it was leading there. I know the MCU gets criticized for a lot of things, but I appreciate that they never tried that with Steve/Clint and Natasha (pretending the Hulk stuff never happened)

[@MoustafaChamli]

Kinda funny how The Offspring's "Get a Job" is just a twisted version of The Beatle's "Ob-la-di Ob-la-da" - Which is to say that it's a very normal version for me.

Fun Fact: Dexter Holland had a PhD in Molecular Biology, and wrote his dissertation on the continual loss of a specific time of protein enzyme critical to life on coral reefs in the Southern Indian Ocean. This enzyme was named "Auroris Malleus," but was nicknamed "The Blue Beetle" by Holland due to its resemblance to the bug when placed under a microscope. The excessive harvesting of this enzyme necessary for his dissertation led to him titling it "Blue Harvest" which is coincedentally was also the working title for the original Star Wars

True story. I was at Marine Corps School of Infantry at Camp Pendleton. One of the guys in my squad was from California, and we became good friends. We had a 96 (4 day pass) for Independence Day, and I went home with Hirt, as I knew nobody in California. He took me to a concert to see some friends of his from school who had formed a band, and we’re getting pretty popular locally. We got to go backstage, and I met everybody. And they gave me a free cassette tape (look that up if you are young) they all signed. They were saying MTV was talking to them, and they were really excited. Cue a few months later, and I’m watching MTV, and there’s the band. That band was The Offspring.

Cuz when we were kids and Offspring was huge it felt like that. Offspring was that mainstream Rebellious-ness that 13 year olds were allowed to do, it's also Ska adjacent and we know how those fans are. So yeah those 40 year olds first cussings probably happened at and around Offspring.
