Line #14 Trivia/Kickass2


1	* ActorInspiredElement: Creator/JimCarrey bought his own props to look like the comic book version of Colonel Stars and Stripes.
2	* BTeamSequel: Neither Creator/MatthewVaughn nor co-writer Jane Goldman returned for the sequel, as they were both working on ''Film/KingsmanTheSecretService''.
3	* CaliforniaDoubling: Canada (specifically Toronto, Ontario) doubles for New York City in several scenes. The early fight with Kick-Ass and Doctor Gravity is set in an area that prominently shows shop signs such as Mr. Sub and Telus Mobile, both Canadian businesses).
4	* CreatorBacklash:
5	** Creator/JimCarrey refused to promote the film due to the level of violence in the film, [[DistancedFromCurrentEvents citing the Sandy Hook school shooting as the reason]]. Later comments made by him also suggest that he simply didn't have a good experience working on the film, either due to his concerns over the material or the production process itself. Most of the cast members were not happy with his decision, as they questioned why Carrey would be surprised by the violence since he had read the script and should've been familiar with how violent the first film was. Mark Manor said "....A movie called 'Kick-Ass 2' really has to do [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin what it says on the tin.]]"
6	** Creator/ChloeGraceMoretz refuses to do ''Kick-Ass 3'' if its production was going to be anything like this film's.
7	* DawsonCasting: A quite noticeable example. Given that she's still living with her parents, Night Bitch is presumably in her late teens-early 20s. Creator/LindyBooth, who plays her in the film, was '''33''' at the time of filming.
8	* DeletedScene: In a deleted scene, just before the climactic fight starts, Eisenhower runs in and bites the Mother Fucker's crotch.
9	* FakeAmerican: Aside from Creator/JimCarrey and Creator/LindyBooth, both of whom are Canadians: British actors Creator/DanielKaluuya (Black Death), Andy Nyman (The Tumor), Steven Mackintosh and Monica Dolan (Remembering Tommy), Creator/IainGlen (Ralph D'Amico), Robert Emms (Insect Man), Creator/EllaPurnell (Dolce, one of the popular girls), and Creator/AaronJohnson (Dave Lizewski, Kick-Ass himself) all played American characters.
10	* FakeNationality: Olga Kurkulina, who plays Mother Russia, was born in Uzbekistan and later moved to Israel.
11	* FranchiseKiller: The movie's poor reviews and box office numbers ensured that.
12	* OnSetInjury: While filming a fight scene, Creator/ChloeGraceMoretz's stunt double suffered a head injury when she was thrown into a wall by Olga Kurkulina.
13	* TheOtherDarrin:
14	** Augustus Prew replaces Creator/EvanPeters as Todd Haynes due to the latter's commitment to ''Series/AmericanHorrorStory''.
15	** Creator/MorrisChestnut replaces Omari Hardwick as Marcus, Mindy's adopted father.
16	* PlayingAgainstType: Creator/JimCarrey as a superhero who used to be an mob enforcer.
17	* ThrowItIn: The lines "Try to have fun, otherwise, what's the point?" and "Yeah, there's a dog on your balls!" were both improvised by Creator/JimCarrey.
18	* WhatCouldHaveBeen: The movie was originally going to end the same way the comic did: [[spoiler: Mindy getting arrested]]. However, this was changed because Wadlow wanted a more happy ending that would make the movie more self-contained. The original ending was filmed, so it's possible it'll be on the Blu-Ray.
