With only twenty one days remaining till this year’s Comic-Con, news is slowly starting to leak out about what this year’s attendees can see. Hopefully, the official website will release a full schedule immediately so folks can know which lines to stand in for most of the day.
While we don’t know what line you’ll have to stand in for Matthew Vaughn’s “Kick-Ass” (Hall H? Certainly one of the larger ballrooms, at least), we know that you’ll have to carve out a block of time near the end of the day on Thursday, July 23rd if you want to see his adaptation of Mark Millar’s comic starring Aaron Johnson, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Chloe Moretz, and Nicolas Cage. Vaughn will be showing off footage from the upcoming film although there’s no official word yet if any of the stars will be attending as well. Personally, I’m happy with just Vaughn as he grabbed my attention with “Layer Cake” and then created an underseen gem with “Stardust”. The story follows a normal 16-year-old who decides to become a super-hero despite having no training or special powers. While I’ve never made secret of my disdain for Mark Millar’s work and his self-promotion disproportionate to his talent, I have confidence that Vaughn and co-screenwriter Jane Goodman can turn his comic into something pretty spectacular.
