I will be seeing it tomorrow. I go in expecting superhero physics--it doesn't matter, for example, that the Iron Man suit is pretty aerodynamically unsound. There's no such thing as magic, either, and I read Harry Dresden books. (I don't watch the copy of the show that Graham owns, though, because I've read the books.) If it's trying to be real science fiction, the flying suit or the magic or the Beast kills it. But this is a genre disconnected from reality.
Meh. At one time, scientists dismissed space travel. Dismissed the notion of nuclear energy. Dismissed many things. And, in time, they were proven wrong.

That being said . . . .

I saw Iron Man and enjoyed it. And, with Downey appearing in the Hulk film, sounds like Marvel is getting closer to doing the Avengers movie. Of course, I'm sure some will poo-poo that since Thor is it.
