Turbo Kid
Kick Ass meets Mad Max, that is what this film is, and that is a good thing. that is a great thing. THe film is about the Turbo Kid, a huge fan of comics, but only it is during the apocalypse and he has to hunt to find his comics, he also must hunt to find other useful goods that he can trade for water & other essentials. He lives on his own after the murders of his parents when he was a kid. With the help of a arm wrestler & a robot he must take down a brute ruler that overseas the wasteland. This has cult film written all over it, the weapons they use, the modes of transportation, the humor, the violence, the blood, the quirkiness, this is an awesome flick.

Scott Pillgrim
OK Scott Pilgrim is pretty much my favorite comic book/graphic novel going today. Toss up with that and the Walking Dead. I'm just excited for the Walking Dead series, the Kick Ass film & especially Scott Pilgrim!
I love Edgar Wright i trust him with this film, i love the casting but i'm not at all sold on Michael Cera, sure superbad was great & Arrested Development was brilliant but Cera is always Cera. Jesse Eisenberg is vastly superior in all ways to him. But Scott Pilgrim is the story of Scott Pilgrim, part of SEX BOB-OMB a band, he meets Ramona Flowers, played by my new film crush Marry Elizabeth Winstead, but must defeat her 7 evil ex's as in not all boyfriends, Ramona swings both ways!
The film will differ from the books since the last book isn't even published yet, and Wright has said the two ending will not be the same! Gideon's battle will be the main difference between the two. Of course combining 5 books plus a new ending into 1 film will scrape some of the awesome dialogue from the books but eh, it's mainly a battle style film, i can dig it.
So put aside your Iron Man's & your Spider-Man's, Scott Pilgrim is where it's at, read the books see the film, and be amazed....i just hope the film doesn't disappoint me.
