actually OP if you bothered to read her biography and interviews, her parents are strict about exposing her to bad influences, she studies and is kept well grounded in reality. But then I realize you are talking just to for the sake of talking.   See 8 other replies

I read an article recently that very deftly described the hollywood trend and the reasons for it. The trend was movies sliding to the ridiculously dumbed down scripts of most of the shows on the Disney Channel (I'm looking at you Cake, Zack&Cody, and anything with twins). The reason was that tweens and young teens are the ones spending their money in theaters, with their friends, to see movies multiple times, whereas the older crowd seems to be shying more and more away from watching movies in crowded, overpriced theaters. This trend is also why movie makers have been so desperate recently to get movies just under the PG tag. Remember back in the 80s and early 90s where it was alsmot impossible to see a large budgeted movie without an R-rating? Back when "Family film" was a genre and not a description of the entire industry (not that I dislike family films, mind you, I just like a bit more variety)? Most of the movies back then, that had huge star powered names attached, or made a lot of money, or were just talked about a lot in infamy, had some nudity, many "adult situations", and tons of swearing. Compare that to the recent blockbusters: most involved teens, tweens, or younger, no "F-word" more than twice, almost all PG-rated.   See 22 other replies

I should've stuck with staying away from this thread. I remember Hit Girl being a bad a$$ and an awesome fighter. I don't remember anything remotely sexy or sexualized about the character.I'm not trying to make fun of you or point out how the sexy parts maybe just in your mind. I really am racking my brain to try to think of one sexualized scene involving Chloe Moretz in Kick A$$ but can't come up with it. The writer's didn't even go with the obvious cliche of her having a little girl's crush on Kick A$$.   See 8 other replies

It seems as if people are trashing the movie before they even had a chance to see it simply because it is an American remake. Do American remakes of foreign film often turn out crappy? Yes. But don't assume that that will be true before the new film has opened.
Excerpt from Roger Ebert's review:
The film is remarkably similar in tone and approach to "Let the Right One In," and it is clear that the American writer-director, Matt Reeves, has admiration for the Swedish writer-director, John Ajvide Lindqvist, who made the original. Reeves understands what made the first film so eerie and effective, and here the same things work again. Most U.S. audiences will be experiencing the story for the first time. Those who know the 2008 version will notice some differences, but may appreciate them.   See 22 other replies

The way her character was sexualized in Kick A$$ was distasteful, damaging, and completely irresponsible on the part of her parents. In fact, her parents also suggested stronger language for some scenes: http://www.guardian.co.uk/film/2010/mar/24/mark-millar-kick-a$$-comics (change the ss back in the link)
It's sickening that they would do that to their own daughter just for money. Real life destroys the innocence of children fast enough without speeding it along via poor parental choices.   See 8 other replies
