Iron Man 2 Movie Review (A-)

I had this big introductory paragraph parsed out about how difficult it is to make sequels that don’t suck in Hollywood and how it’s even harder to push out a comic book sequel considering the rabid throng of fans frothing in the background, waiting to pounce if their beloved story isn’t up to par with their expectations. I imagine this type of stress might cause the bookkeepers in Tinsletown to drink Mylanta like an ice-cold pitcher of summertime Kool-Aid and

Jackson). And even though the cast is eclectic and talented and Scarlett Johansson makes me drool, the driving force

Welcome to Nerdtown, Scarlett

Scarlett Johansson is definitely Maxim-crowd drool-fodder, but her tight leather, red-haired role in the upcoming Iron Man 2 as Marvel Comics’ super-spy Black Widow (aka Natasha Romanov) is destined to propel her to an even greater height of unspeakable and deviant fawning: full-blown Nerd Lust. Poor Scarlett should have stuck with the modeling/singing gigs. Still, thanks be to Entertainment Weekly for busting out the first image of Scarlett “Ryan Reynolds is MY man, ANDY” Johansson, because sneak peeks are always

Remember Iron Man?

With summer coming at us with a serious barrage of highly anticipated odes to fiery destruction, firearms and the comedies that eschew either, it’s kind of tough to remember that about this time last year, Iron Man was surprising audiences and pocketing their money with giddy relish.
