*dives on Viv and hugs tight*

If Victory was to dumb to want to keep you, they can't have you! You belong to us now!

*chains Viv to the FBBC*

*sits with Fedor and quietly shares a soda and crackers*

*comes in, dressed all in black with a pointy nose and tries to steal the Secret Plans*

*puts on her Doctor Tinycat scrubs*

It is time for a second opinion!

*pokes Fedor in the belly*

My god! We need to rush this sackperson to the operating room immediately and perform a stuffingectomy! Quickly nurse, prepare the patient, and make sure to use the big mallet this time!

*does saunter so much as stalk around*

Now see? Why can't I be VexXxa's horsie? rawr rawr

*saunters in with Fedor on her back*

hey.. How come I have to be the horse here?

*grumbles*

I'm sorry Tiger, I think you're a little big for this tree. We have a lovely hill over here though for you.

*drops water balloons on the tree invader*

Take that! And this! And some more of these!

*prepares water ballons to drop on puppy*

I don't know what you're talking about.

*mews and becomes a cute NekoSundae*

Sometimes she runs out of whipped cream before the weekend is over.

*joins Detra in the whipped cream*

*walks in, does a few stretches to prepare, then faceplants*

Extreme napping. Hi everyone.

Wait, what? So... what is NASA going to do after the shuttle program ends? Play Missile Command on the Cape's computers?

*walks in dressed like puppy*

Hi everybody!

Hillbilly Hot tub?

*toasts some marshmallows*

Hi puppy. I haven't been camping in ages. Probably for good reason.

Hi tiger, fedor.

*collapses into a kittypuddle by the wind tunnel*

I really liked the movie. In a lot of ways, I think it was actually better than the first one. I thought the fights were in general better and more interesting. I loved this version of the briefcase suit. Nick Fury was fantastic in the movie, and I don't think any of the supporting characters grabbed an undue amount of attention or were ignored. A little more Black Widow action would have been nice though. The little references like Cap's Shield were great without being overdone.

I do like how they handled Tony's decent into despair and self destructive behavior, but I did feel that what was missing was what exactly he was doing to find a solution. Pretty much they just had him saying 'Well, I tried everything and since I'm brilliant, there must be no cure'. It seems to me that there were plenty of other solutions, including getting the reactor out of his chest. He really didn't need it per se to keep him alive. He just needed some way to keep the shrapnel out of his heart. And once back in civilization he could have found some other way, or another way to power the electromagnet... Also, he was acting in a very traditional manner to suicidal people and yet nobody really tried to do anything to find out what was wrong than ask some casual questions. Sure he's eccentric, but giving away most everything he owns and doing even crazier stuff than normal should have had Pepper, Rhodey and even Happy more worried than they were.

The villains. Ivan was okay, being a mish-mash between Whiplash, the Crimson Dynamo and some unspecified genius. Neither of the other two in the comics were all that bright. One being a criminal thug and the other a communist patriot both of whom were given high tech toys that they didn't develop. But it worked well enough for the movie, giving Tony someone who could challenge him both intellectually and with armor.

Justin Hammer however.. was a putz. And totally unlike his comic book counterpart. Comic Hammer is a dangerous corporate raider who never gets caught and bankrolls a number of costumed villains to mostly get his rival Tony Stark, who he hates. Movie Hammer is a bumbling fool of a CEO who doesn't seem to know what he's doing, is constantly being outmaneuvered by Tony and Ivan and never seems to have back up plans. He just expects that he can throw some money at a problem and it will solve itself. I have to wonder just how he managed to build a large company, especially if his products are so seemingly unreliable.

The ending and set up for the Avengers movie is interesting, but I won't spoil those here. I've spoiled enough I think. I will warn of course, stay till the end after the credits for another Avengers tie-in mini scene.

Hey, it's Iron Man 2 release weekend. We don't mean to go all bi-partisan here. When another new comic movie opens up, we dress up as them too.

*struts in wearing Black Widow's costume*

but wait..

You are just shrinking the ceiling? What's the point in that?

*sends her demons after saist*

Silly girl. Trapping a mastermind doesn't do anything.

*struts in, heels clicking on the floor and light glinting off her shiny latex schoolgirl outfit. A casual flick of a hand summons a cracking helfire whip*

Alright. Everyone puts the pizza in the sacks my demons will be circling with and nobody has to get hurt.


To much.



Unless you beg nicely for it.
