Remember how awesome this was?

Wow. Still pretty riveting. Unlike, say, The Matrix.

Definitely still the best Marvel movie, and indeed the only one I've enjoyed.


Also, HOLY CRAP YOU GOT A LOT OF TAGS!



Also, Dave closed up shop on the Long Box, so wipe the tears and remove the link. Move on, man!

I tidied it up. Yeah, DLB has passed to the great "blogger whores of the world" party. Of course, YMB's has been intermittently funny.

X2 was good, but so were the first two Spider flicks (the second of which created the most awesome superhero video game ever). I have hopes for Iron Man. Not HIGH hopes, but hopes.

This is why my new D&D 3.5 character is a "porter" (*sigh* goes into telling someone about her character...*shirk, run, nervously look for an escape*)

[thebitterguy]

You using Psionic rules or are they a magic user?

[optimussven.livejournal.com]

I, on the other hand, have very little hope for Iron Man.

Also, I think we're in agreement that X3 and Spidey 3 never happened, right?

[thebitterguy]

No, they happened. They were just pretty bad capstones to their particular franchises.

What looks bad about IM for you?

I just don't know if I can get on board with the RD Jr. thing. I'm also worried that it'll be a bit too much of "look at all the crazy effects we have!" and no real story (à la Ghost Rider).

It's still pretty awesome, IMO.

[thebitterguy]

Well, all we have is the pretties so far, but they seem to be doing a good job integrating Obidiah Stane and the Afghani Warlord Origin story.

Admittedly I haven't done much research on the Net to see what parts of the comic series are actually going to be integrated in the movie, but an integration of Iron Monger is good news!

[thebitterguy]

Agreed. Although it does make Magneto's fairly convoluted plan in the first movie seem somewhat silly.

Bard/Scout and Jaunter prestige class from Expedition to the Demonweb pits.

For those that are wondering...

The background music is from Mozart's Requiem Mass. Specifically the "Dies Irae" movement.

Still, better than Luthor's in the last Superman film...
