I saw the new Iron Man movie this weekend. It's getting a lot of great reviews and some are even calling it the best super-hero movie to date. I'd have to say it's in a close race with the first Spider-Man movie for that title. Even so, it was pretty fucking great. Plus the $4.00 Reese's Pieces where delicious. The director - Jon Favreau - will now be launched into the upper tier of directors like a space monkey. I met him once at a film festival in upstate NY. He's a really nice, funny, down-to-earth guy. His first movie, Swingers (which he wrote and directed), is a classic. Vince Vaughn co-stars and steals a lot of the scenes. Here's a clip to help Jon remember the good old days - when he was a poor struggling hilarious slob like the rest of us.
