True, keg, but early buzz from elsewhere was pretty mixed. Some REALLY negative.
And most negatives pointed to the point of contention I immediately questioned: the too many villains syndrome. See: Spidey 3, X3.

Sequels usually are never as good as the original. When you mine new territory, it's always fresh and fascinating; when you do a sequel, your starting base is "more of the same".
Luckily, going by the trailers, "more of the same" should still be damn entertaining, because Downey IS that role, and when you set the music of AC/DC or Black Sabbath to the visuals of "a lot of shit getting blowed up", it's hard to go wrong. Throw in a prim Gwyneth Paltrow and a smoking-hot Scarlett Johannsen, and I really don't care if the film is 2 hours of Tony Stark flying, drinking, f**king, and being smarmy, it'll still be better than most of the crap films I've seen recently, LOL. My print just showed up today. 37 reels, around 2:05 worth of IMAX film. I'll be putting this bitch together for around 15 hours on Friday, and screening it Monday at 11pm. Anyone interested in a 2000-mile road trip, come see it. |

You can do it.. The problem is you need a long movie.. Hell, if I were doing a hero movie.. Theatrical would be 2:30mins long and extended version 3 and half.. One would be for general audiences(theatrical) and the extended would be for the comic fans..
Kind of wrote an outline script for xmen 4 and 5.. But would need to likes of avatar and the FFmovie guys to pull it off.. |
