    This one gets a lot of stick from people who aren't as smart as me so I'm looking forward to seeing how it's held up since my last viewing. I thought it was awesome the last time I saw it.

    Rockets along but not much substance... May as well be Monte Carlo Pod-racing.

    Prison guard couldn't have looked any more sinister if he tried.

    Inevitable comparison time...overall I think I prefer Howard but Cheadle is a bit more believable when he looks like he's about to kick off.

      Cheadle is the master at indignant flaring of nostrils.

    God knows what route Rhodey took to get to the base; it was dark when he left.

    "I'm the realest person you're ever going to meet." What the hell does that mean?

    I'd rock the shit out of an eye patch. Damn my functioning left eye.

    How is Coulson so cool? He looks like an accountant.

    So, presumably at some point Jon Favreau thought "Oh, I know what the movie needs, a scene with me and Scarlett Johansson and she's taking her clothes off. Yes, that's what it needs."

    Many good points, but the Shield stuff's a bit patchy... Weakest of the pick for me...
