Iron Man Mini Review

I know I know, it’s WhippTV, but I have decided to start expanding this blog to cover other entertainment related areas, such as movies, comics, and video games.

SO, last night I saw Iron Man and was thoroughly impressed. The movie was extremely well done, and is at the same level of quality as the awesome Spider-Man and X-Men films (at least the first 2).

The effects are great, blah blah blah. You’ve seen the trailer. You know. It looks amazing. The movie is propelled to excellence not by visual effects, however, but by the performance of Robert Downey Jr. He is Tony Stark. He was perfect for this role, and he knocks it out of the park.

My only complaint is minor: Once the movie started to really get rolling on all cylinders, it was over. This isn’t completely a negative, as it left me wanting more…which I am sure I will get when they make Iron Man II. Go see this now! It’s an awesome start to the summer movie season, and you will regret missing it.  

p.s. Stay through the credits if you are a fan of Marvel Comics. There is an extra scene you will want to see.

American Idol Recap

Missed last weeks post, but here is a recap anyways.

Carly and Brooke have both been eliminated. It was Brooke’s time to go, but Carly deserved to stay longer. The last two themes, Andrew Loydd Webber and Neil Diamond were lame, and somewhat boring. No one blew me away, David Arch. was boring and mechanical like usual (great voice, but lame) and David Cook stole the show both weeks.

The final two will now most likely be a battle between David Archuleta and David Cook. May the best David win (Cook!).

I see Syesha going home next, and then Jason Castro. Syesha has been singing  better than Jason, but he is more popular.
