Sound on Sight Radio Rewind: Episode #200 – Kick-Ass & Defendor
For the past few years, Mark Millar has been writing some of the most exciting, mature, and original film storyboards in recent memory. The fact that he has the nerve to call his work ‘comic books’ is only mildly insulting to those of us who don’t want to see the medium transform into log lines written to Michael Bay’s reading level. Tonight, on our 200th show, Sound on Sight takes a look at the latest adaptation of his work, the hard R superhero comedy Kick-Ass, and we’ll also review the Canadian equivalent Defendor, which stars Woody Harrelson as a developmentally challenged crime fighter.
