Tonight however, I intend to take in the new summer "blockbuster" Iron Man at our local movie house. I was a pretty avid comic book reader as a kid, and loved the Marvel superheros becuase I always thought they were more believable characters.

Iron Man was a prticular favorite of mine. I've seen good reviews, and the box office has been big. So, I'm going to cough up the twenty bucks for me and missus and give a go.

Even with a decent home setup, the epic, special effects based flicks always play better in a real theater enviroment.

How about you guys? Any big time movie fans out there? (You don't have to admit it, if your wife makes you watch chick flicks)
