IRONMAN

WARNING! LONG ENTRY!

since i was born, having three older brothers and all, i was expected to grow up a princess-wannabe or a basketball-playing-comics-reading-tomboy. and i grew up to be neither. well, actually i'm a little bit of both. i just never really got that comics stuff, i did try to read though. my eldest brother is a fanatic. kuya Ouel is not a neat person, but he was extremely, crazily obsessed with keeping his comics fold and wrinkle free. they were the love of his life. and he got boxes and boxes of 'em. he was a collector. while everyone was wasting their money on men's magazine or something practical, like uh, food, he was splurging his with comics since the day he learned to read. and my other brothers grew to love comics too.

let's just say i'm not much for superheroes. i got to watch every marvel superhero movie made, but it doesn't mean i enjoyed it all. this gets me to what i'm really supposed to be blogging about. uh, yeah, this is just an introduction. The story is that i watched Ironman with the 'rents and my brother Paolo.

i don't like writing reviews, simply cause i'm not good at it. it's ether i like it, or i don't. and i love Ironman. All i knew about Robert Downey Jr. is that he's old, my sister in law's got a crush on him. and he took drugs. but i'm beginning to think that i'm developing a crush on him too. the dirty look works for me. hahaha! he will be appearing in another movie soon, with Ben Stiller it's gonna be a comedy(with Ben stiller whadya expect?). that's according to the sunday paper. anyway, i love Ironman, maybe because he's not really a superhero, he doesn't have any super powers or anything. he's just super smart, kinda like batman. what i like about the movie is that it's not totally dry like superman or spiderman, definitely not like Batman (although Christian Bale is so much hotter), it's actually funny. the lines are witty. and the main character is self-made superhero, what could be cooler than that?

for those who are planning to watch, stay after the movie, it's a long wait but you get to see another scene after the credits. you get to see another superhero, Nick Fury!!! maybe there's a sequel? about the SHIELD maybe. according to my brother, in the comics, Jim (Tony Stark aka Ironman's friend)will get to be ironman because Tony Stark'll die. cool huh?

the best part of watching in the cinema, is the trailer part.
Edward Norton will play the incredible hulk. weird huh? i mean, i thought Eric Bana fits the role well. apparently, according to my brother, the character is supposed to be a weakling and a nerd. so they made another Hulk to fit the comics another 'coming soon' movie is Wanted. James Mcavoy and Angelina Jolie in one movie? that's got to be hot!! i super love James Mcavoy, and i think he's deserving to get roles like this one. well, after his role in atonement, he sure attracted a lot of positive feedbacks and interest. he's one helluvan actor. Ryan Reynolds and the kid from Little Miss Sunshine are starring in this cute film Definitely, Maybe. it's a father-daughter movie with a little mix of love story. i'm surely gonna watch it, not in the cinema though, pirated DVD?? hmmm.. hahaha! Shia Labeouf in Indiana Jones? i think he's a promising actor too and i'm proud to say i was a fan since Even Stevens. hahaha. i'm not a big indiana jones girl though.

that's it. that's it. im super tired. maybe i'll edit this tomorrow...
or never.

Update: EDITED
