Iron Man is rusty

What was supposed to be a great movie, with all the hype about it on networking sites (Twitter & Facebook alike), trailers and even getting freebies of it from a pack of hotdog, the movie Iron Man 2 failed to impress me big time. I just cannot believe that in the long lines in ATC were perhaps people like me who came out disappointed and regretful. Good thing we didn’t watch there after realizing that at 2:30 pm, people on queue are actually already buying tickets for 4 pm onwards – earlier slots are already full. So we transferred instead to the nearby Festival Mall, and although finding another pack of yet another eager crowd, we still at least got ourselves tickets for the 3:35 pm showing.
With frankfurters on hand ready to complement an anticipated good movie, I soon however appreciated more the flavor of the mustard in my sausage rather than what I’m seeing on the big screen. Yes, that bad. It just didn’t deliver the excitement I got after seeing the first Iron Man and also when Tony Stark made a cameo appearance in the Incredible Hulk movie a couple of years back. If what went wrong, I don’t care writing about it. I’ll just waste precious time blogging it in detail just like I wasted my time watching it.
Next time, I think I’d rather read spoilers about a movie than being among the first ones (today’s just the 2nd day) who have watched it…especially if its producers decide to redeem themselves from this disappointment and think of introducing Iron Man 3. Sorry Iron Man but Alice in Wonderland stays as the last great movie I’ve watched.

Scenes I find interesting in Iron Man 2
*All scenes with Scarlett Johansson and Gwyneth Paltrow. It’s pathetic that the film didn’t do justice to these wonderful actresses.
*Amanpour made an appearance as herself and she’s still with CNN in the movie. I saw her last TV program in CNN this morning.
*Larry King was also there. Makes me wonder if he’ll still be around when the first robot gets to be capable of being interviewed.
*Anyone who watches the F1 Race will for sure recognize and love the Monaco scene…well, until the villain (whoever he is) started lashing the cars in half.

Mood: 3/10 Honks! (The newly attached dental jacket cut through the frankfurters.)
