Iron Man in Wonderland the Way it Should Have Ended... Wait...

Comming Soon: Iron Man 2
So, not going to lie, I'm totally Stoked to see this movie. A new trailer was released the other day revealing Tony Stark's new 'travel' armor, a lighter collapsible iron man suit. Plus glimpses at all the new bad-guys and even SHIELD.


Review: Alice in Wonderland
I went to see Alice in Wonderland last Saturday. The theater was packed, but that's not really a surpise is it? This is a Tim Burton film after all, with a huge cast. Apparently Alice did better than Avatar on opening weekend. That's big.

The film was good. It takes place 12 or so years after Alice already first went to Wonderland. She falls down the Rabbit hole yet again, but she conveniently forgets her first trip. She spends way too much time completely sure she's in a dream, despite failing the age-old pain/pinching test. Then again, if you visited a strange world when you were 8 and no one believed you, you'd think it was all a dream too.

So Alice, convinced she's the wrong "Alice", must help the white queen and slay the jaberwalkie. I'm not going to tell you how, I don't want to spoil it. But with the help of the mad hatter (who has a split personality hence the accent change), a talking bloodhound and many other talking animals she wins, yes!! Go Alice!

The movie was visually sunning and appropriately 'Tim Burton' dark. Many places in the film look like they were from the 1950's cartoon, but left appandoned to decay. And for some reason, the film really liked eye injuries. A lot of bad guys got poked in the eye and not in a comical way. Can't really explain it.

So the point to all this: go see the movie. I saw it in 2D and it was great. I don't know how it will look in 3D, but I would imagine stunning (I can't justify paying the extra 3.50 to see it in 3D, but that's me).

Just for Lol: Twilight
Yes, I saw this movie. And it's sequel New Moon. Don't judge me! I swear I went with my friends to make fun of it, completely pissing off some die-hard twihards. It was so worth it. Anyway, the reason I'm posting something on a movie that has been out for a while, I came across this awesome video: The Way Twilight Should Have Ended. It is brilliant.

Real quick (for those who don't know or care much) Evil-creepy-blond-bad-guy, James, manages to lure Bella, alone, to a closed ballet studio (why? who knows). There Bella gets the crap beaten out of her and bitten (in this vampire universe it just takes a bite). Enter Edward and family who fend off and kill Evil-creepy-blond-bad-guy. Then Edward is left with a decision, suck the venom out or let Bella become a vampire. Watch:
