I have a theory that Favreau and his writer had a great movie and then the studio wanted all this crap included about the Avengers and so they lost a lot in rewrites and unfortunatly Favreau is not yet the kind of filmmaker who can stand up to such pressure. Oh well, maybe next time, seeing how fast the box office dropped off, they'll learn.The Taxi Driverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04352371911592068643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1571769854236946971.post-82190996634249964952010-05-21T08:43:28.340-07:002010-05-21T08:43:28.340-07:00Greater attention to detail regarding development ...Greater attention to detail regarding development of the villains would have really elevated Iron Man 2; if anything, both Hammer and Vanko are written as such non-threats that the film never establishes a firm sense of running tension. Performance-wise it delivers, but the script really let this one down.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1571769854236946971.post-85584810901395369992010-05-20T12:15:28.210-07:002010-05-20T12:15:28.210-07:00thanks Celtic, so am I, some of those to come soon...thanks Celtic, so am I, some of those to come soon.The Taxi Driverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04352371911592068643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1571769854236946971.post-35543213587965145762010-05-20T09:10:12.556-07:002010-05-20T09:10:12.556-07:00While it is very enjoyable that you are doing this...While it is very enjoyable that you are doing this big/huge/gigantic Blog-a-thon about movies that made going to the movies suck, i must admit to very much missing your own musings on things.Wild Celtichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09839331422541811675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1571769854236946971.post-14079501769255088122010-05-17T15:45:23.866-07:002010-05-17T15:45:23.866-07:00Too much of an Avengers prequel, too little of an ...Too much of an Avengers prequel, too little of an Iron Man sequel.
