Speaking of superheroes

Conversation at lunch before going to see Iron Man:

Turg: It's the summer of superhero movies. I just wish that teaser they showed for the Batman-Superman movie in I AM LEGEND were in the works.

N'il: They can't even figure out who they want to play Wonder Woman, and that's been in the works for ages.

T: Who could play Wonder Woman? ........ M(agenta)? Yeah, that's it. I can't think of anyone else.

N: Yeah. I can't think of any strong, statuesque, brunette actresses.

T: Maybe Catherine Zeta Jones. But I can't really see her as Wonder Woman.

N: No. I can see her as Diana Prince. Not as Wonder Woman.

T: Yeah... M(agenta). She's the only one I can think who can be Wonder Woman.

N: Yeah.

Seriously? Robert Downey, Jr.? Yeah, I'd hit that.

It's the beginning of the superhero movie summer. I'm terribly excited. Turg and I saw Iron Man today. Loved it. Totally loved it. Good story, engaging, funny, witty. I could go on. About half way through the movie, I was sitting there thinking to myself, "Wow. Robert Downey, Jr. is pretty hot in this. Who'd have thought?"




P.S. - If you go see it, stay through the credits (that means you, CawfeeGuy)
