i really don't get why everyone finds this whole hit-girl saying 'cunt' thing so amazing/shocking/hilarious/whatever you find it. seen 328973941 movies with people saying 'cunt' in it. oh no, it was an 11-year old girl. because children never swear. whatever. i didn't 'lol' or anything when she said it. if anything, i thought 'fucking badass' and went about my business silently, gasp/cringe/tut/giggle-free.

huge soccer mum uproar about it here. was a ridiculous segment on mornings with kerri-anne a while ago that had my blood steaming out of my ears because all these nattering women with nothing better to do were complaining about the language and whether this film is okay for children. i mean obviously, it's not.

what, no. that is not what i am trying to say here. not trying to be all 'too cool for school' about social taboos or whatever but really, the entire segment was dedicated to vilifying the film because it "looks like" a kids' film because there are are bright colours and superheroes - and let's completely gloss over the word "ass" in the title, the gratuitous violence and rating classification the film was awarded to prevent children easily being able to see it - and debating its appropriateness for those under the age of fifteen. ugh.

as for not giggling in the cinema at a curse word, that is because i am an adult, not too cool for it.

I think you'll find most people will laugh because it's so unexpected. It's a bit WTF? Also keep in mind 98% of the audience wouldn't know this is a comic book adaptation and would have no idea how this little girl will be portrayed in the film.

Unfortunately, I have to agree here. So many good books out there, but when one of the non Marvel/DC books becomes a film, no one knows it's not a comic. Just keep your nerdcool and enjoy it for what it is, like me. Then again, I'm not seeing this for another week. Weak.
