If you haven’t been informed already, the upcoming movie Kick-Ass looks like it is going to kick ass. The trailers have been hilarious and I am very much looking forward to this movie coming out. In the meantime, I will have to make due with the 4 new Kick-Ass movie posters that have been released. The first is a fairly standard movie poster with the main cast striking a pose. The next 3 posters are awesome, resembling old war time posters. The Hit-Girl poster is based off the famous Rosie the Riveter posters of WWII. That’s some female empowerment right there. The Red Mist poster is a recruitment poster, asking for all of us to grab our costumes and go fight crime. The there’s the poster for the titular character, Kick-Ass. Much like the famous Uncle Sam recruitment poster, Kick-Ass is reaching out to us to defend our country. This can only be described as inspirational. Enjoy the posters.

Oh Toy Story 3, please don’t ruin my childhood. I loved the first Toy Story, Toy Story 2 was tolerable, but I’m pretty nervous about Toy Story 3. I really want it to be good, especially since Tom Hanks and Tim Allen are reprising their roles as Woody and Buzz Lightyear, but third installments in franchises are notoriously bad. Toy Story 3 will be about Woody, Buzz, and the rest of the gang being given to a day-care when Andy grows up and goes to college. Damn you Andy, how can you abandon them like that? There are some familiar faces in the Toy Story 3 poster, such as Mr. Potato Head, Rex, Hamm, and unfortunately Jessie the Yodeling Cowgirl. There’s also some new toys, including a unicorn, a purple blob thing, a triceratops, and a praying mantis. I know that despite my misgivings about sequels like this I will still be forced to see it. I just hope these new toys live up to the standards set by the originals.

There is a new poster out for the remake of A Nightmare on Elm Street, and it’s pretty intense. You can’t judge a movie off of its poster, but that is one intimidating poster. Jackie Earle Haley will be playing the sweater loving psychopath Bill Cosby Freddy Krueger this time around, ensuring none of us want to go to sleep ever again. The guy was scary enough as Rorschach in Watchmen, let’s see what he does with an actual horror role. A Nightmare on Elm Street opens April 30th, 2010.
