shape of a man, soul of a car
Because i'm sure you haven't seen enough of this, some slightly belated comments about IRON MAN:
Sooooooo badass.
I was not at all previously acquainted with Iron Man (aside from like... knowing who he is?) as i am extremely poorly versed in superhero lore despite my purported love of superheroes. NOW I AM SAD THAT I AM SUCH A LAZY NERD.
One of my very very very very favorite moments was of course the last second of the film and "I am Iron Man." because oh man that goes against every emo superhero's all-consuming secret identity angst and WTF TONY STARK, WHY SO AWESOME. Perfect end note. PERFECT.
Iron Man vs. Iron Monger was insaaaaaanely great because a) ROBOT FIGHT HOLY SHIT and b) i loved the juxtaposition of gigantic clunky loud ostentatious Iron Monger and little sleek quick efficient Iron Man. Basically one of my favorite aspects of superheroes is AGILITY-- it is why i love Spider-Man so much, because he is a small skinny asskicking acrobat and that is SO FANTASTIC TO WATCH.
TONY/PEPPER. Uhm it's almost kind of like if James Bond had ever ACTUALLY had a real relationship with Moneypenny. Or something!!! IN ANY CASE, yes, win, unrequited quick-witted awesomeness, Tony loves the color red and he does in fact have a heart. HOT PEOPLE. BEING GREAT. AND HOT. <3 <3 <3
!!!!!!!!! "Just call us S.H.I.E.L.D." !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOVED IT. NICK FURY WTF.
<3 <3 Tony and Rhodes!
The first rocket boot test with Tony being thrown very very quickly and violently into the wall cracked me up THE MOST. UNEXPECTED HILARITY.
And helloooooooo Robert Downey Jr. Nice arms, fella! APPROVED. I suddenly feel the need to rewatch Kiss Kiss Bang Bang due to awesomeness. Fast-talking awesomeness. Fast-talking UNRELIABLE NARRATOR awesomeness.
...Anyway!
FIC RECS that you have probably already seen but deserve to be mentioned nonetheless: Vignettes In Ferrum by latropita; Drink Deep by dafnap.
So MAN. SNEAK ATTACK AWESOME MOVIES, livejournal approved! Ha ha i love you lj and your sudden and intense explosions of fannishness, that is totally not annoying when it's something i agree with!
