Not really sure how I felt about Iron Man, tbh. It definitely wasn’t as good as The Avengers, but I feel like it was trying to top it so hard that it just missed the point.

I’m watching the motion comic Iron Man: Extremis thing on Netflix and…I don’t know how well it’s aged. I guess this is always kind of the problem with someone who’s as on the cutting edge and beyond as Tony Stark. They just mentioned a ~brand new cellphone prototype~ that has satellite broadband internet and can download an mp3 in thirty seconds.

Also it looks like an old Nokia that you could kill someone with.

So half-watching Iron Man 2, trying not to have Natalie Rushman feels, and someone that I went to high school with literally just had a baby and updated Facebook.

I’m sure that say something, but I’m not sure what.
