Iron Man 2
Nov. 8th, 2013 11:44 pmMy superhero movie education slowly progresses! Today we saw Iron Man 2. I gather that it has some plot holes or something. I am not the person to ask, my personal opinion is that superhero movies are made of plot holes, and frankly I agree with the Senate guy who was like "but maybe we don't want to be wholly dependent on your protection, Tony Stark."
I mean really, what is to stop Mr. Stark from deciding that being Dictator of the Planet sounds like fun? Or, on the opposite end of the spectrum, falling into a funk due to daddy issues/palladium poisoning and utterly neglecting neglecting his self-appointed duties? No one thought the Soviets would get the atomic bomb as quickly as they did either.
But never mind, soon after the Senate hearing I mostly stopped paying attention to Tony Stark's storyline (except the bit where he and Rhodie dueled, that was fun), because Black Widow had shown up and she had my full attention. Her hair is basically a darker version of Merida's hair, in a non-animated context. I think she should have her own movie so I can admire her at appropriate length.
