Iron Man vs. Spiderman 3

I recently saw Iron Man at the theater and I was extremely impressed. Iron Man is a movie that actually takes the time to setup the original story of how Tony Stark became Iron Man. It wasn't like a microwave dinner where boom Tony Stark instantly becomes Iron man. No the movie takes its time and actually gasp has a plot and good reason for Stark to don the Iron man costume.

Another reason why I loved Iron Man is that Robert Downey Jr. is a bad ass, witty, and heroic at the same time. In contrast Tobey Macguire in Spiderman 3 was an emo haircut rocking, jazz hands waving spineless wimp. They tried to shove the theme of forgiveness down our throats in that movie like we were a little kid not eating his broccoli. Seriously how many superheroes would just let the guy who killed his own uncle go after the murderer gives the explanation that he was having some family Issues. Hey Spiderman he killed your uncle and this isn't Doctor Phil. At least web trap him in a cave somewhere.

Any superhero movie where there is a song and dance number ruins the whole superhero genre. Until Hollywood casts Rom Tom Tugger from Cats in Flamboyant Feline the movie keep dancing, jazz hands, and singing where they belong in broadway musicals. Finally another reason to see Iron man is that the final showdown is fun to watch and doesn't last thirty seconds like how Spiderman dispatched Venom like he was a hotel maid who didn't read the do not disturb sign. To sum it up Iron man rules, Spider man 3 sucks, and I'm a nerd thank you.
