Or does he...

I've never met a Michael Jordan that wasn't awesome.


So, I saw IM3 today.

I love RDJ.

Spoiler

Were I a comic book purist, this movie would probably anger me. But I'm not, so I find all of the rage over it to be quite funny. I had already planned to come in here today after I saw the movie and complain about the fact that people were saying there was a twist (even the knowledge of a twist, even if you don't know the details, ruins things) but the way the twist was handled was just outstanding. And honestly, I'm kinda glad the twist happened. I'm not sure how well a Tony/Mandarin faceoff would've been handled. Probably would've had some cool dialogue (though really, the hell kind of accent is that, Ben?), but what the Mandarin was before the reveal was a bad caricature and wouldn't have led to anything of value, IMO

Cast was solid as usual. RDJ is awesome. Paltrow was good. Favreau's character was really entertaining. The weakest link was Tony's ex, but I'll take it if there's only one bad, or disappointing, character in a movie.

Greatest opening to a film that I can think of. Eiffel 65? Brilliant.

A lot funnier than I expected going into it. A lot of genuinely funny parts.

As with most movies, it would've benefited from a few extra minutes. More time with the other suits (That fight scene is one of the greatest things in the movie. More time pre-combat, or even post-combat would've been nice, but alas.), and there could've been more exposition with the President/V.P., but again, for reveal purposes I suppose it works.

In the end, I'm not sure I can put it above IM1 (Jeff Bridges FTW), but I can put it as its equal. At the very least, it's better than IM2.

I have a feeling the comic book movie fad will phase out before Marvel will get to make all the movies they're currently developing, but there's no sign of slowing down yet. We'll see.

Joss Whedon confirms Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch for Avengers sequel, talks Iron Man's future

Quote

A rumor started a few weeks ago that Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch would be joining the team in the upcoming Avengers sequel. Further signs continued to point towards the characters' inclusion in the film and now writer/director Joss Whedon has confirmed the characters will appear in an interview with IGN. In the interview, he spoke about their involvement in the film.

"You know, they had a rough beginning. They’re interesting to me because they sort of represent the part of the world that wouldn’t necessarily agree with The Avengers. So they’re not there to make things easier. I’m not putting any characters in the movie that will make things easier.”

We've learned exclusively at SuperheroHype that Irish actress Saoirse Ronan is the "prototype" for their version of the Scarlet Witch, but no casting has taken place.

Whedon also spoke about how the ending to Iron Man 3 (spoiler ahead!) showed a potentially changed Tony, but he's still tied to The Avengers.

“Well, I feel like in Iron Man 3, even though he said, ‘I’ve changed' -- he blew up his remote suits, but I don’t think anybody thinks he doesn’t have one anymore. The question is, if The Avengers are called, does he show up? And the answer is, ‘Yes!’”

Casting for The Avengers 2 is still coming together with many rumors flying around about potential actors being replaced. Regardless of who ultimately assembles for the sequel, Marvel's The Avengers 2 hits the big screen on May 1, 2015.

The season finale of Arrow was pretty good. Kinda predictable but all in all, it was a great show. Hope for another season but idk if it'd be as good.
