    Saw two movies today...

    May contain some spoilers in my next post after this first one, but I will give clear and fair spoilers warnings.

    No following spoilers in this first initial post, just movie gradings.

    Star Trek Into Darkness friggin' RULED, what a thrill ride, I loved everything about the movie, IMO, easily the best movie of the year so far for me.

    Iron Man 3...personally I thought the movie blew chunks, it was horrible, the worst Iron Man movie to date.

    Star Trek Into Darkness...A+
    Iron Man 3...C- (it gets that high of a grading because of just Downey, but everything else sucked).

    I have spoken!

      Star Trek was way better than the popcorn, but the popcorn was a thousand times better than Iron Man.

          ***Minor spoiler***


          The filmmakers completely and utterly destroyed the Mandarin character, what a catastrophe, unforgivable.

              Did you read this thread?

              There isn't a spoiler here, there's THE Spoiler here. If your one of the eight people that didn't see the movie yet, don't read ahead even though I'm going to be as vague as possible. If you have seen the film, then you already know what I'm talking about but you may want to read the linked article too. The comments section are
              "Many Shubs and Zuuls knew what it was to be roasted in the depths of the Sloar that day I can tell you."

                That's good to hear about Star Trek. The first JJ film is definitely in my top ten all-time favorites. I watch it a couple times a month. Now I've got to find time to go see this...
                I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she dumped me before we met.

                    Iron Man was horrid...



                    ***SPOILERS***

                    Tony Stark needs twenty remote control Iron Men to fight the baddies?

                    Boy, what a weak arse superhero, lol.

                    The Iron Patriot was useless.

                    The Mandarin turns out to be a drunken actor???

                    Gweneth Paltrow (who I hate) saves Iron Man and is the one who takes out Guy Pierce?

                    Horrible movie, I will never ever watch it again, ever, lol.

                        >what a weak arse superhero

                        Yeah, Batman would have beat all the bad guys with a cell phone and Hollywood martial arts.

                          Lets not forget the Iron Patriot is also a taxi vessel for the terrorists to transport the President. Easily the most absurd hero film ever made. After achieving such huge success with his origin and making him essentially the glue that holds the entire Marvel universe together in the Avengers, the studio just wilted him down to a one dimensional joke of a hero. Stark can solve every problem in every field from tech based issues to genetics, but is incapable of providing adequate security to his home (from three helicopters), or has armor that can stay on his body for more than five seconds before it gets blown off. Some major flaws in physics to explain how the armor is imploding and yet he comes out of it just fine. Really the entire film reads like that the whole time. It never follows the logic of it's own technological parameters. Epic fail.

                            Agreed one thousand percent, God bless you.

                            Iron Man 3 makes the Green Lantern movie look like Citizen Kane, no joke.

                              That is a POWERFUL quote there Hec...and probably spot on.
