Iron Man’s new armour – I hate it
I read somewhere and I now forget where that a man should hate something in order to stay strong ( or it might have been young, frankly I’ll take either at this stage of my life ). Which is fortunate for me because I currently hate something and I’ve only seen it in the last fifteen minutes.
Now I guess it should be noted that I am a big fan of the retro Iron Man armour and I love …

The other day I listed off ten movies that I’m still looking forward to this year and since ten is a nice round number there are obviously other films that I’ll be looking out for this year and I thought it unfair not to mention them:
I’ll address the biggest eyebrow raise in there I’m sure straight away with Full Moon the second of the Twilight films, I didn’t enjoy the first movie nor did I see it as some cinematic masterpiece, in fact far from it. However once curiosity was through killing off cats it got the better of me and forced me to watch the film because I had read the book. Curiosity is once again my co-driver in this case and I’m morbidly curious to see how this pans out.
Where the Wild Things Are is a touchstone book from mine and I suspect a lot of people’s childhood and from everything I see this is going to be really interesting and hopefully beautiful, I have faith that it will be if the studio can keep their grubby little mitts out of the mix.
Speaking of childhood touchstones, Astro Boy was a HUGE part of my childhood, we all loved Astro Boy, I didn’t watch the newer series of it but I will certainly give this a look, I’m glad they didn’t go with a live action version as that would have been tenuous at best.
I love the Universal Pictures monsters from the early days and I look forward to the Wolfman with some caution, I hope that it is really awesome however I don’t know what constitutes awesome in this case since the original is a masterpiece.
2012 is a big old bag of rubbish, however I dig end of the world films and I’m assuming a film by the creators of Independence Day will only serve to undermine the panicky idiot types who think that a wiped out race of child sacrificing people who happened to have a calender have predicted accurately the end of the world. I’m hoping there are explosions.
Gamer is one of those films that yeah sure I’m interested in seeing but I’m sure it won’t turn my world onto its ear. Of course if it does then booyah for it and me! If it doesn’t I won’t be sending Gerald Butler hate mail or pictures of cheese. I hope the X-Box people don’t watch it and get ideas.
And finally Year One, it just looks funny, I was pleased to see Jack Black returning to some form with Tropic Thunder and I don’t have to hate on Michael Cera for holding out on an Arrested Development movie as I believe he is on board for such a mind numbingly awesome event. Besides it is directed by Spengler and we all love Spengler.
I think that about covers them all, please let me know if there is a movie I may have missed in all of the new blog excitement!
