Was it based on a superhero comic book? Because that's the definition of capeshit.

ISN'T THAT THE QUESTION OF THE DAY?!

I liked this movie. I don't know if a sequel would have been good, though. I like the mystery around the powers.

Is it me or does he really resemble Dylan Roof?

I thought the same thing when the Roofening happened.

Decent flick, though.

New movie he is starring in. Based on some anime I think. Sounds intriguing.

It depends on how you use the word. It's a buzzword, so it doesn't really have a stable definition.

IMO capeshit is a high budget superhero film made with the express intent of appealing what hollywood insiders call the four quadrants: male, female, young, old. Chronicle comes close to that but I don't think its there. Look closely at Chronicle and you'll see its just a found footage drama about kids who get supernatural powers, an Akira remake. And it doesnt have four quadrant appeal.

On the other hand, Kick Ass is low budget and certainly not (rated) for kids, but definitely is capeshit. Like I said, buzzwords rarely are consistent.

It's called a deconstruction of the superhero genre, duh.
>>
>>67039670
for me, anything that is based on a comic is capeshit. I dont think Chronicle ever had a comic to begin with?
>>
>>67039180
no, just shit
>>
>>67039670
How does capeshit usually appeal to old men and women? It's exclusively for manchildren who read comics.
