I must concur when it comes to Kung Fu Panda. I really liked the first one, and I think the second one is even better.

Kung Fu Panda 1 and 2 were good, I thought. I honestly don't remember much about Madagascar 1 and 2.
I love that "The Penguins of Madagascar" show. I just wish they could've gotten Ben Stiller to actually guest-star on that one episode, "Guest-starring Alex the lion!" Friggin' cop-out.
I'll make sure to watch all three, thank yas.
Madagascar 2 felt dull to me.
I noticed it was him, but man he's doing an amazing job of disguising his voice, it took me a minute to figure it out.
I didn't think they could make a movie as obnoxious as the first one, once again I was wrong

You spelled "fun" wrong.
am I supposed to laugh at the little girl calling people cocksuckers and smacking another kid and calling him a pussy and to take out his tampon?
or the America's Funniest Home Video classic nutshots in at least 3 shots
The plot seems a little more interesting than the first one's, but they (hilariously) killed off the only interesting character.

Goddamn, I couldn't see it until they said his name.
Never really cared for the book to Kick-Ass, and my brother said the film wasn't much better.
Helloooooooooooo reason to sneak pot into a theater.

Drugs fucking rule.
I won't need drugs to enjoy this movie. It looks like a mix between The Never Ending Story and Sucker Punch.
Looks like some kind of psychotic take on Little Nemo.

Damn... and I gave that movie a miss because I didn't like Nightwish's new singer.
How is this related?
Nightwish. Made. The. Goddamn. Soundtrack.

Am I the only one who thought the trailer for The Great Gatsby was almost ruined by the soundtrack used for it?
No, no you are definitely not figmentPez . Does not mesh with the Great Gatsby at all.
Looks like they essentially made the movie, considering Tuomo's level of involvement and the contents feel like a lot of themes from Nightwish songs.Damn... and I gave that movie a miss because I didn't like Nightwish's new singer.

Probably going to be pretentious as hell, like musician-movie projects tend to be.

It sounds to me like you reacted exactly the way the director wanted you to. You were supposed to be uncomfortable about her character. Kick-ass's own fights were supposed to be terrible.

Probably... I mean, Dark Floors, inspired and pretty much made for the Eurovision winner monster band Lordi just plain sucked.
everything about hit girl in that trailer and in Kick Ass 1 was presented / filmed / delivered like a punchline (pun intended)

I completely disagree. You watched it from a different angle than I did. I don't feel like the film was going for punch line beyond an uncomfortable initial chuckle. I think they were going for a classic comic feel to throw you off guard so that it would suddenly hit you that, "Hey, this isn't right." The whole Hit Girl thing was there as a counter-point to characters like Robin.
It's funny--I would've thought you would've liked Kick Ass. I thought it was fairly cranial and loaded with satirical commentary on the whole genre.

Maybe you're both right.

When I watched the trailer, I *did* laugh at Hit Girl. I didn't realize how dark the movie would be; maybe I watched some very short teaser-type trailers, but that was my first impression.
It was still kind of a funny contrast at first, but yeah fade I definitely felt uncomfortable and squirmy about it throughout the movie. It was pretty tragic. I feel like the part when they tried to add the most humor was at the end when she pummeled those bullies.

This looks fucking creepy. Why did I watch this trailer before bed?
Blow on the conch and get Mer-men?
