Kingsman: The Secret Service (2015, D: Vaughn; S: C. Firth, S. Jackson)
I didn't see a thread for this film. Vaughn wasn't on hand for the FOX panel, but a cut sequence was shown.
I guess it's lucky to be based on the comic book considering the lawsuit MGM has against Universal right now over their future film titled MI6 film and how much it MAY resemble Bond.
As for the scene:
Filming is currently underway for THE SECRET SERVICE and thanks to The Daily Mail, we now have the first set images featuring stars Colin Firth and Taron Egerton. The Matthew Vaughn film is an adaptation of the Mark Millar comic of the same name, and follows a secret agent named Uncle Jack (Firth) as he trains his troubled nephew (Egerton) in the art of espionage. THE SECRET SERVICE is Taron Egerton's big screen debut, and besides Firth the film also stars Samuel L. Jackson as the villain and Michael Caine as the head of the spy agency. Colin Firth and Tom Egerton do look quite a bit like the comic book versions of their characters in the images below, and with Matthew Vaughn directing I have very high hopes for THE SECRET SERVICE. Like most comics by Mark Millar, THE SECRET SERVICE is violent and funny as hell, and the film should be an absolute blast. Especially if they get Mark Hamill. THE SECRET SERVICE will be in theaters November 14th, 2014. - See more at: http://www.joblo.com/movie-news/firs....fOf1tdWO.dpuf

I was surprised to see Samuel Jackson in the trailer though, never knew he was gonna be in it. I'm starting to get sick of him after seeing him in The Winter Soldier, then Agents of Shield and then Robocop. Dude doesn't take vacations.

This looks like MEN IN BLACK with Brits instead of aliens.
But I see Lawrence Fishburne is in it, so it can't be that bad.

Colin Firth, Michael Caine, Mark Strong, and Sam Jackson (with a lisp, no less) in a spy/actioner? Fuck yeah!

i don't know why, but i find it moderately amusing that this is being promoted so heavily, yet it doesn't come out until feb. 2015.

When I saw this trailer earlier in a theater earlier this summer, my first thought was that it was the movie version of "The Man from U.N.C.L.E." and I scratched my head wondering why they made all the characters Brits.

Like with all Matthew Vaughn movies, I'll wait for the inferior sequel by a lesser director.

I saw a trailer for this months ago. I forgot what movie it was in front of.

Went to a screening of this last night, enjoyed it immensely. Much like Kick-Ass, it's played straight but with a humorous touch, plus the action is over the top (in a good way). The CGI is a little dodgy at times, but I didn't mind because it fit with the absurdity of those particular moments. Definitely worth a trip to the theater if you're on the fence about this.

Glad to hear. I've been looking forward to it.

The trailer for this makes it look like it's based on some shitty comic book nobody cares about or has read. But since it's by Vaughn, it'll make some dough.

I was surprised when I saw this got an R rating. The early previews made it look like they were going for a teenage crowd . Glad that's not the case.

My first thought was that they were trying to do a good remake of the John Steed Avengers. Must've been the brolly.

However, I know the film has been "edited" in the UK since then. I don't know if the edits occurred to the US edit as well.
