I am sure this will be shocking to all...but we went to see Iron Man 2 last night fo the midnight showing. The movie just opened today across the country and Shawn had to see it immediately! I admit, I wanted to see it too, but not necessarily at midnight :) The movie was great though! Not as good as the original (of course) but still really great! Definately worth seeing in the theater. Jon Favreau did another fantastic directing job, as well as acting in the movie again. Robert Downey Jr. and Don Cheadle were great as Iron Man (Tony Stark) & War Machine (Lt. Col. James "Rhoadey" Rhoades). The fight scene at the end was amazing! Gweneth Paltrow again portrayed Pepper Potts, but Scarlett Johansson as Natasha Romanoff was added to the cast. Scarlett Johansson was totally kick ass, but it is good that her character didn't speak much because her acting was mediocre at best. Samuel Jackson and Clark Gregg reprised their roles as the agents from SHIELD arranging the Avenger Initiative (so stay after the credits if you're a comic book nerd...you'll appreciate the little scene). Mickey Rourke again proved that the is creepy, but in a good way for this role as his character is the perfect 'bad guy' that takes advantage of Sam Rockwell's character Justin Hammer, another arms manufacturer that wants desperately to show up the great Tony Stark. Just go see the movie. You'll love it!
