IRON MAN

I watched the 12:15 showing at Pacific Place in Auditorium 3. Good crowd in the theatre. I sat 3 or 4 rows back. Good movie. Enough humor especially with the guy from "The New Adventures of Old Christine", who worked for Strategic Homeland Information Enforcement Logistics Department (I think that is the words they used for SHIELD).

Jim Rhodes was good. And we did get the homage to WAR MACHINE.  "Next time, baby."

Stane was the main villain in the movie which was good. They kind of killed him off so I doubt he will make a reappearance. Which is kind of bad. They allude to his demise but they don't say he died. I guess he could come back but it is very doubtful. In the comic books he took over Stark Industries and made it Stane Industries. I was hoping for something like that. Stark then rebuilt Stark Industries and eventually bought out Stane Industries from under Stane. Putting Stane in a suit was a good idea. The end battle was well done.

Especially important was the fact that Tony left one of the bad guys to the crowd of villagers that the villain was going to kill the men and take the women and children.  Tony killed a lot of people while in the suits and did not seem to shy away from the death of people for a comic book movie.

Definitely not a movie for children. It had sex, alcohol, and death. But it was a guy in a suit of armor which made it BAD ASS.
