I can't figure out if I actually, really, truly liked Iron Man and Iron Man 2 or if my brain has exploded from my mania over Robert Downey Jr.
See, on Sunday, my parents were out running errands, and they called me to check what times IM2 was showing. The fact that I hadn't seen the first movie prompted my dad to buy the blu-ray, since we still haven't found our DVD copy of it. (Have I even mentioned that here? I can't find the 2009 Emma or Iron Man... it sucks. They have to be in the house somewhere!) So, as soon as my Dad got home, he and I watched Iron Man while we ate lunch. As the credits rolled, we left to go to the theatre to see Iron Man 2. As such, they have each blended in my mind. It was an enjoyable way to spend a Sunday, and I'm pretty sure I really enjoyed the movies for themselves. I just couldn't quite bring myself to look at anything that wasn't Robert Downey Jr.
I so wish I was joking. How was I not aware of this man's awesomeness before Sunday? I even watched Sherlock Holmes only a few weeks ago, and missed it? I mean, yeah, he impressed me in that movie (and I really want to get the blu-ray of that for my Dad's father's day gift, for completely self-serving purposes) but I think my brain snapped while watching IM2.
Netflix is on to me, too. They recommended movies starring him to me about three times now. Netflix is better at figuring out who I have a crush on better than my family is.
I'm thinking of redoing my user pic selection... to be very heavily RDJ influenced. Or just for the changes... Off to look for awesome icons!
