"Dads leave. No need to be such a pussy about it."


So last night, Tiina and I went to see Iron Man 3. She's totally in love with RDJ, or at least was, I'm not following her celebrity crushes, but anyway.

And before the movie we saw the Wolverine trailer!

Anyway, what can I say about Iron Man 3? It's probably the best Iron Man movie. For some parts, it was rather boring. But then again, it was sweetly distressing. I mean, wow. Wow, wow, wow. I somewhat distressing scenes in a movie, and they made them perfect in this. Because if the writer was an idiot, they would've made everything alright. But seriously, Stark almost died in New York in The Avengers, that must leave a mark in a man. He had post-traumatic stress disorder, and I'm glad he did, because it shows us that he's a human.

There was one plot twist here that I truly loved. But I can't spoil the fun for you guys. Let's just say that Ben Kingsley is amazing, and Stan Lee's cameo was his second best, and there's another guy who has a cameo.

Just... stay in the theatre until the credits end.

"Perhaps you should get a wardrobe, you abominable twat."


I just finished Easy A. Let's just say that... Easy A is the kind of film I hardly like. I mean I've tried to watch "normal films", like... The Perks of being a wallflower. But these kind of movies are usually dull, dull, dull. But there seems to be few exceptions: Mean girls, Nick and Norah's infinite playlist and now Easy A.

I really adore Emma Stone. She's really good actress, because she's so convincing as Olive. Because she's not being too immature, but still not too mature. You know, she was just like a high school student is. I guess. I should be an expert on these things, since I'm in high school.

But I loved how this movie mocked religion. Since there was this one religious student. You know, when Olive was going to a church, I was like "That's it, she's turning super religious now", but that didn't happen, which is cool. Because it would've ruined the whole movie, because it's such a cliché that religion rescues and all that, when it truly wouldn't have done anything good to Olive. 

But I truly loved Easy A, and I recommend you guys to watch it, even if you don't like this kind of movies. Because Easy A was fun and kinda light. And if you don't like this kind of movies, you should still watch one every once in a while, just to remind you why you don't like these.

I don't know what I'm rambling about.

"That was Banner. IT was Banner."


So last night I watched another movie, I yet hadn't seen, from the Avengers DVD-box. I thought, this seems a lot more interesting than Captain America, mostly because I hate him as a character. But I had seen the trailer of Incredible Hulk. It seemed awesome, while most of it was Bruce Banner running away from the people who considered him as the property of the U. S. Army. It seemed really, really... good.

And I wasn't wrong. The Incredible Hulk wasn't a story about how Bruce Banner became Hulk. We all saw that in the credits before the movie started. But for the start it was mostly about... hunting the Hulk, and running away. And I kind of loved that, because superhero movie is always, always about how he became him or she became her. But not The Incredible Hulk.

I have to say I prefer Edward Norton to Mark Ruffalo, and well, I haven't yet seen Eric Bana as The Hulk, but still. Edward Norton has the perfect look for Bruce Banner. Even though Norton is incredibly good looking, he looked kind of nerdish, in a good way. I'm not sure if I can explain it, but I've seen some fan art of Bruce Banner, and well, they didn't look like Norton, but still they looked more like Norton than Ruffalo or Bana. 

There was some other good actors here too, especially my love, Tim Roth. He was brilliant, even though his character was so... Well, I just didn't get a hold of him. But Roth always has done brilliant job. Yes.

But I didn't like Banner's love, Betty Ross. She was so... I don't know. She didn't have the qualities I've always loved in Marvel's female characters. We have Storm, Black Widow, Jean Gray, Emma Frost, and Mary Jane Watson, Gwen Stacy, Kayla (I don't know if she's anywhere but in X-men Origins Wolverine), Pepper Potts, Maria Hill and so on, and so on. But Betty wasn't like them, and I found her a bit annoying. Like when Hulk was strangling Emil Blonsky, Betty told Hulk to stop. And I was wondering that why should Hulk stop? What if Blonsky or his monster wouldn't die and he would just carry on destroying stuff. I think Hulk would've done us a huge favour by killing him, I don't know.

The movie was fantastic. The only thing that made me feel bad was the fact that Norton wasn't in Avengers. He would've been good.
