Anticip--er, Dreading KINGSMAN: THE SECRET SERVICE (Colin Firth, Samuel L. Jackson, Matthew Vaughn, Mark Millar)

ITT Deems and Tombot agree on a movie

Nice

if you all hated it this much it really must be something

The sequel was so long they called back the "save the world/get butt sex" line twice.

i cant remember the last time i hated a movie this much. i didnt like the first one much at all, but this was egregiously horrible and stupid and annoying

The first one was passable (although way too violent imo).
I have just watched the sequel yesterday (yeah, I know, I was bored and wanted dumb sunday evening entertainment...).
What a bad bad movie. At some point I had enough and wanted to switch it off then thought I must be near the end so why not watch it all at that point... but I was actually only halfway through !

the hero of this movie goes on a mission to finger a woman and the audience watch in awestruck horror as the camera follows his fingers down her torso and into her vagina, where his techno-condom-clad finger deposits a little tracking device

what the fuck

god i'd forgotten all about this

what an appalling, hateful movie

I think there was ONE moment that I found a little funny : when the robodog is about to kill Colin Firth and suddenly Elton John gets in the way on the sound of "Rocketman".
so that was around 5 nice secs in a 5h long movie...

yeah the "fingering" mission was wtf !

I haven't seen either of the movies but having read the work of Mark Millar, the only thing surprising about any of the WTF-ery ITT is that Hollywood keeps adapting the work of Mark Millar.

Or, rather, why Hollywood doesn't follow Marvel's template of loosely adapting the work of Mark Millar with all of the hardman edgelord content extracted.

i had the misfortune of seeing the sequel in the theater (got free tix & mr veg was keen to see it)

i dont think i’ve fully processed what i saw that evening even now. bad bad bad BAD NOPE BAD UGH

This movie watching experience is PTSD level horrible !

why Hollywood doesn't follow Marvel's template of loosely adapting the work of Mark Millar with all of the hardman edgelord content extracted.

since Wanted didn't have any hardman edgelord content in the film, it seems that Hampstead, not Hollywood, is the actual site of your ire.

So the Doral Trump Massacre video is literally a digitally adjusted version of the "Freebird" scene from Kingsman I.
