Iron Man 2 - Entertainment Today footage

I can't wait to watch Iron Man 2, without doubt, the movie of the year. The promo footage from ET has made me less patient than ever. There is the much hyped Monaco F1 race track sequence and Iron Man's flashy appearance on what looks like the American Idol show. Tony Stark is no Bruce Wayne. Subtleness is not a word which he is aware of. Stark doesn't even know that the word exists. :)

By the way, if you have not received the memo, Iron Man 2 features the arrival of his wing man, the War Machine. The less flashy, more brawny version of the red and gold suit does the job for the latter. Not to mention, the colossal firepower the suit offers. For us, that's twice the metal action.

Movie of the month - Archives - November - 2012

Another disaster movie from the director who made a career out of making disaster flicks. Roland Emmerich returns to repeat the success of Independence Day and Day After Tomorrow with 2012 - a visual effects filled apocalypse movie based on the theoretical end of the world expected to take place in year 2012.

Forget the fact that John Cusack is the lead actor. Who pays attention to the hero of an Emmerich movie? Even if you intend to, you may not get the time to take your eyes off all that breath taking CGI. The budget is in the $200 million range.
