Official WTFDetroit Movie Review Thread

What if you were to learn that Jamal Crawford had a bit role in the movie as one of the people at Stark? Would that change your opinion of the movie at all?

Is it weird that I thought of writing the same exact thing, Vinny?

I was going to say "You would have loved it if Jamal Crawford had a cameo." But I didn't want Cross to get worked up.

Nothing harsh is intended towards cross from anyone i dont think. In fact if thats how he feels all humor aside more power to him. its just a movie.

Would it change his opinion if Jamal Crawford was War Machine?

after that, it was all too much of "i want to save the people, fuck this industry." contradicting 2 ideas if you're trying to go fuck the talibans but we need to save the people. war cost us innocent lives. and they did a good job to portray that but the storyline, not so much.

There's been lots of atrocities and shit done against our best interests using weapons we've sold. How do you think the Taliban came to power? Rambo went out there and trained the mujahadeen, remember? :)

Aside from that, though, Cross has a perfectly valid point, one that comic book geeks have voiced before. Iron Man often degenerates into weapons stupidity. Tony Stark says he's not going to make WMDs, except of course for whatever latest techie thing he's working on that gets compromised and used against him. Then he has to go into Iron War mode to save the day and keep the technology bottled up. It's a classic Iron Man storyline, and the movie was true to that, but it can quickly get stale.

OBTW, I liked Gwyneth Paltrow as a redhead *much* more than I like Kirsten Dunst as a redhead, which pushed this ahead of Spider-Man in my book.

My official position is that Iron Man required a lot of suspension of disbelief, but if you can do that, it's a really good summer blockbuster movie.

My two favorites were when he went ballistic on his escape and when he hit the wall in his flight test. Dead or crippled, roll credits.

each to his own.

yea v im not really a huge comicbook guy. dont enjoy them as much, maybe because i never read them when i was a kid.

xman was okay as well as spiderman 1 and 2 but this goes down as one of the worst along with fantastic 4.

Anyone see Pan's Labyrinth?

Just saw it. Pretty cruel flic.

Yea its labeled as a fairy tale for grown ups. Which is fairly accurate. Though a weed head or shroom addict might freak out watching it.
