Iron Man

Dammit.

I actually think Robert Downey Jr. is a pretty great actor but he’s one of those guys whose very public private life has gotten in the way of his work. (It’s all too easy now to see him as typecast in Less Than Zero.) I wish the powers that be had gone with an unknown for Iron Man. But whatever. I’m not so much of a fanboy that I’ll see it no matter what. If it sucks, it sucks. But I am happy Jon Favreau is directing. I like the cut of his jib.
