Of Iron Man and Iced Coffee
-----
So yesterday I went and watched Iron Man 2 with a few gentlemen (Felix, Jacky, and Leighton).
The verdict? Tony Stark is an asshole and Ivan Vanko is a really cool movie villian. Other than that, however, It was your standard cliché'd American Summer movie, with lots of explosions, fight scenes, and wisecracks.
Most of it's pretty nonsensical. For instance:
In the climactic scene, hero Tony and villian Ivan have an epic battle in the heart of New York. Hundreds of buildings, vehicles, bridges, and pretty much everything in destroyed, probably causing upwards of $30 trillion in property damages. Later, when Iron Man invariably wins, he receives a medal for his "heroism".
Thank you, Tony Stark, for totally destroying our city's infrastructure and your own world exposition in the pursuit of one man. On the bright side, regardless of all the explosions and 7 foot tall battle droids shooting missiles all over the place, the only person that was shown dying was the villian. Have a medal for your heroism.
3/5, wouldn't watch again.

I love Iced Coffee.

I don't know why Tim Hortons got rid of it, but I really want them to bring it back.
Please?
