Iron Man


I saw it Friday night. Enjoyed it. I like Robert Downey, Jr.'s acting. I maintain that there was no chemistry between him and Gwenyth Paltrow and the almost kissing scene (which looked pretty embarrassing, I have to say) was unbuyable. I have been informed that there isn't supposed to be chemistry between Tony Stark and Pepper Potts (btw, what brainiac came up with that name?), because they can never be together since he's an irresponsible playboy, and she's the glue holding his world together. Which also wasn't quite so obvious to me - the glue part, that is. He seemed capable to me. He was never going to have his one night stand's suit dry cleaned, but he could have. That's apparently just Pepper's job. Man, how I would hate her job.

The other Iron Man, you know, the triathalon? I know someone who did one. (Edit 5-6: Okay, it was "just" a triathalon, not the Iron Man. And I'm not freaked out so much today. Still worried if I go biking with dude, I'm going to fall over after 6 blocks and skin my knee.) It's freaking me out! If there was an Iron Man for couch sitting, chips and salsa eating and napping, I could qualify. I'm hanging out with a triathalete, and I thought I was going to pass out running a block and a half for my bus one day last week. Crap. I'm gonna have to exercise.
