Go. Go Now and See It.
Today’s mission, should you choose to accept it, is to get right out to the movie theater and immediately see this movie.
Was.
AWESOME!!!
It is a rare thing indeed for our ever larger family to get ourselves out to the theater to catch a movie, especially within the first week of opening. So shuffling everyone out of the car and into a dark cavern outfitted with stadium seating is a major event. And at 10:30 am on a Saturday morning? Unheard of! Jon Favreau is one of my favorite directors and he did not disappoint this time, either. Why do people go to see superhero movies? To see our hero’s alter ego suffering through emotional and moral dilemmas? No! We go to see the action! We want mutant powers! We want high tech gadgets! We want evil bad guys and strong female supports! We want gold and hot rod red mechanical bio-suits! And Favreau delivered right from the get go. He even managed to fit in a brief history of Tony Stark without having the audience nod off. And Robert Downey, Jr.? Spot on, my friends! And looking rather handsome, as well. The rumor is that Iron Man makes a cameo appearance in the new Hulk movie and that there are plans to make an entire trilogy of Iron Man movies. After today’s performance, I will gladly go and see each and every one of those!
What are you doing still sitting there?
Go. See. It. Now!
Humor-Blogs.com wishes it was cool enough to wear armor like that!
Thank you for the critique. We were afraid. But no longer.
WOHO, FHE activity
