So I'm excited for the new Iron Man sequel, as no one who has seen the first movie would be surprised. But I am really intrigued by another film Robert Downey Jr. is staring in and that the Sherlock Holmes movie. If you're curious as to why I love him so much this should answer your question. They kept that scene in the theatrical release. He is a character above all else, the man is not a quick thinker but that's because he thinks too much. A lot of his movies involve him talking aloud to himself or analyzing a situation too long for the sorry-ass decision he ends on. Like the ending clip of the Sherlock trailer where he obtains a large hammer and a fiercesome looking goon obtains a tree sized hammer, they pause for a six seconds, and he throws the tiny hammer at the goon. Fucking hilarious don't get me wrong. I think he's actually turing Sherlock Holmes into a superhero, it's like HIS power or something. Iron Man was basically Marvel's answer to Batman except they made him less broody and more porkin-focused. An upgrade. I implore anyone to see Sherlock Holmes. I suspect this Iron Man will be lame though. If anything, superhero sequels are mathmatically designed to fail and only there to provide a trilogy. Above all it's the fact that the best supervillian is used for the first film, otherwise why save it for a sequel that would never get funded. And the multiple villians thing is also true for some reason.
On a happier note I realized yesterday that I have been eating moldy bread for lunch. I smelled a pungent scent of hard liquer and suspected that it was my roomate. But as I opened the bread bag it hit me like cement and I inspected the entire...loaf... covered in mold. I must have a terrifying immune system and if that is such the case, I believe I deserve my own superhero: average man. Sub-to-moderate Medeocrity by day, even less so by night.
