Over at 24 Frames, our sister blog, Amy Kaufman writes that “Kick-Ass” doesn’t need to worry about “Defendor” stealing its thunder…
At the Oscar nominee luncheon earlier this week, Woody Harrelson was asked about the status of a dark superhero comedy he has coming out titled “Defendor.”
“Yeah, I did this movie called ‘Defendor’ and I was really excited because Sony picked it up in Toronto, and it’s a wonderful movie,” he said. “I love the movie. I get the feeling it’s not gonna get much play, though.”
We just saw the trailer and sadly, we’re going to have to agree with Harrelson: It just doesn’t look like a winner…

Amy wrote "we" as in the "editorial We." She was referring to "we" of 24 Frames blog. I linked to it. I wrote the part in tialics. There wasnt a meeting or anything before she wrote her post (I didn't see the trailer before she wrote it…) Sorry you're so upset Cal…
