Iron Man

On Wednesday we went to see Iron Man. We went to a 5:30 showing downtown, so ehs had to rush up after work. I felt a little silly sitting in the theater by myself, but at about 5:20 some other people came in. There were probably less than ten of us in the theater, which still beats the crowd for when we saw Son of Rambow a couple of weeks ago. We had a private showing of that great movie in the theater.

Iron Man was really fun, another example of when taking a comic to a movie really works. Now, I don't remember the Iron Man comics very much, I don't think he was a character I read about a lot. But the movie was charming and exciting, as well as feeling very topical. I loved his interactions with the robots he'd created, there were moments that felt like Pixar had been consulted on the script.
