The two things from the comic that I really wish they had kept in the first one were that Dave pretending to be gay (or allowing her to continue thinking he was gay) and Big Daddy's lie.

As for the second movie, first of all his girlfriend breaks up with him almost immediately (thankfully) and instead of massacring a bunch of kids and raping Dave's ex, they kill cops and MF is too flaccid to rape Nightbitch. It's played as comedy, but at least it's toned down.

da

But Dave did pretend to be gay in the first movie? It turned out a hell of a lot better than it did in the comics, though, so maybe that's what you meant.

Yeah, I left out a word there. I was referring to it working

Well, I'm glad to hear that. Even if it's still rather over the top, it's not near so...insanely so.

I vacillate a bit on the Big Daddy thing.

On the one hand, his lie worked within the story...on the other the 'haha, take that you stupid geeks' aspect is hard to ignore (and I'm of the opinion that reading that into the last page of Wanted is a real stretch).

I tend to like it because, independent of either of those points, it at least gives Hit Girl a chance at a normal life (not that she ended up having one) in the end.
