In another half hour I'll have been up for twenty-four

Somehow that sounds like song lyrics.

Anyway, the point of this post is that I went to see Iron Man 2 despite my hellish day and it was pretty swell. I have no major complaints about the story, but a few nitpicky ones. RDJ played assholish alcoholic Tony as awesomely as ever. Rhodey was good, and I was worried cause I fear change. And Scarlett Johansson was oddly thin looking, but overall not bad.

So CnC, any of you been to see it and have thoughts to share with the class?

To innocent bystanders, beware that if you get me talking there will probably be spoilers. Sorry. Just sort of happens.

RIGHT? I mean, even the SHIELD agents could get in there with a few punches of a button.

Tony you know better than that!

[superspeeds]

He probably uses his birthday or something.

Seriously. That's like internet privacy rule number 1. Get with it, Stark.

[liverletdie]

Tony always makes the stupidest mistakes. The stupidest!! B[

[superspeeds]

It's so he can still stumble into his lab in a drunken stupor. If it were some complex (reasonable) code, he'd forget, or not be able to type it out.

[liverletdie]

Touché. Oh movie Tony and your drunkenness.

Is it bad that his drunken "rampage" of a sort was my favorite part?

[superspeeds]

I very much enjoyed it too. Almost as much as I enjoyed the METALLIC SPANDEX IRON MAN THEMED BOOTY SHORTS at the beginning.

Where do I acquire those.

[liverletdie]

I DON'T KNOW. But man I want some so badly.

TONY YOU JUST PEED IN YOUR SUIT

[liverletdie]

.............

AT LEAST I HAVE THE PROPRIETY IN COMIC CANON TO HAVE NEVER DONE THAT

Sure, I derailed a train, flew through a closed window, and almost killed people in a drunken fight...

BUT AT LEAST I NEVER PEED IN MY SUIT.

[superspeeds]

Yet.

[liverletdie]

I WENT STRAIGHT WEEKS IN MY SUIT THANK YOU

Totes not gonna pee in it

[superspeeds]

But it has a filtration system in it.

It's drinkable.

[liverletdie]

THIS IS LIKE THE TIME THAT REED MADE JOHNNY DRINK HIS PEE

THAT WAS FILTERED

AT LEAST TONY KNOWS THERE ARE SOME THINGS YOU JUST DON'T DO.

[superspeeds]

... So he has a sense of propriety about drinking filtered pee, but not about human rights and privacy.

Well, I guess you really can't have it all.

[liverletdie]

TECHNICALLY HE ISN'T HUMAN ANYMORE.

It makes that argument a little easier. :|

[superspeeds]

Magneto was never human at all.

That didn't make it a better argument.

[liverletdie]

...DAMN YOU LOGIC. :|

[superspeeds]

Universe 2: Stark 0.

But don't worry, Tony. You're a comicbook character. Logic is fluid for you.
