Is this YOU Hugo?? I had judged you as far smarter but then I often give too much credit… By the way, Kick Ass was, to me, one of the most inspirational, fun and devil-may-care movies that I’ve seen in a long time. If you didn’t like it go talk to David Stratton – he’ll undersatnd… Sad.
There’s so much more I could say – especially about how your top 4 directors would deplore the essence of what you’re trying to say but hey… I gotta go bedwise.
Peace bro.
so yeah, clearly I had a few issues with your blog… but check out the input! I’m a cantankerous man at best though I feel sure that you can hold your own (otherwise what are you doing blogging in the first place?!) – til next time,

Awaiting moderation indeed – as am I.
