You may have noticed we're a bit excited for Kick-Ass 2 here at The Movie Bit. The first movie was a great comic book adaption, and just a great movie in general, and from what we've seen and heard so far, the sequel seems to be on the road to deliver more of the same.
For a sequel, you have to deliver more, and a whole team of superheroes seems just the kind of more we need for Kick-Ass 2. Inspired by the events of the first movie, Justice Forever are a team of normal people who've donned costumes to do some good in the world. We've seen glimpses of these heroes before, but here we have them assembled together, led by Colonel Stars (Jim Carrey, who sans mask seems to be sporting a prosthetic forehead and nose). This is also our first proper look at the husband and wife team of Remembering Tommy, who fight crime in the memory of their missing son. The costumes are alot different from the look of the comic (which made them look like something from a 1960's Thor comic), changed to be more realistic. The t-shirts they wear, with Tommy's face on them, are a very nice touch.
