(WET-suit, not ski suit!) The movie starts heading off into fantasy-land right after that. Could the entire rest of the story be Dave Lizewski's dream, while comatose in the hospital from that beating?

Don't know if it's just the era that I was reading, or the aesthetic or what.blakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05430444326700437630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7268985416439660021.post-16806769693144802442010-06-13T09:49:56.210-07:002010-06-13T09:49:56.210-07:00Cap'n,

I'm not ...I did dig it. I thought it was cute.<br /><br />I'm not a comic book geek either, though I sort of wish I were? <br /><br />Just FYI, technically a "superhero" has to have some kind, em, unnatural power, like flight, super-strength or speed, mutant powers, etc. Kick-ass is populated with plain-old "heroes" (of whom Batman is the archetype).<br /><br />I commented at your site: Dunno if it went into moderation or just got swallowed.<br /><br />The RPG thing was absurd, though. Just for starters.blakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05430444326700437630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7268985416439660021.post-5369732365759107612010-06-12T17:22:53.767-07:002010-06-12T17:22:53.767-07:00Direct link to Schmoe's review here.Direct link to Schmoe's review <a href="http://report-on-conditions.blogspot.com/2010/05/unlikely-superhero.html" rel="nofollow">here</a>.blakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05430444326700437630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7268985416439660021.post-42507098510351329972010-06-12T13:06:32.007-07:002010-06-12T13:06:32.007-07:00I dug it.
