I’m not going to go so far as to say that you’ll love Iron Man 2. I don’t know you. That’s even considering that whoever might be reading this is more than likely a nerd. There are many kinds of nerds out there and some just don’t dig comic books or the movies that are birthed from them. Hey, I can’t fucking stand card games like Magic. See? Different classes of nerds. With most of the reviews from people who get paid to do what I’m doing saying that this movie is “so-so” and folks who have similar tastes to us here at Media Breach saying this is a “smoldering load of goodness you want in your face”, I can understand how one would be conflicted about the actually quality of this film. I’ve let my initial reaction to this movie die down to try and figure out exactly why anybody wouldn’t like this film or flat out not love it and I think I figured out why.
That’s right, haters, I loved it. Loved, loved, loved, Iron Man 2. As soon as the opening credits started being displayed, I knew it would rule. This is the kind of summer/sequel/comic book movie I love to see. There’s mounds of payoff, call backs to the first film (which I had the pleasure of seeing in the theater again just before the midnight screening of IM2), way more laughs than I expected, and just some all around great action littered with fanboy moments. I know a lot of people said the same thing in May 2008, but the rest of the films releasing this summer are on notice; the bar has been set so good luck.
This week we take a look at the coming films for Summer 2010 with special guest Breachcaster James!
I guess I missed this story on AICN but word has it that Gwyneth Paltrow gets punched in the face in Iron Man 2. The video after the jump details the nerd outcry over this startling revelation.
Iron Man 2 has a trailer with not one but TWO AC/DC songs. Check it out after the break!
Following celebrities on Twitter can be a futile chore. But Jon Favreau posts some pretty classic shit from now and then. This being one of them. You know the drill- after the jump.
