Click the scary dead man to watch the first 5 minutes, in better quality than the bootleg that was going around a few months ago. Ledger's eyes, man... I read some critic saying he deserves an Oscar. Which seems far-fetched for a superhero movie, but then again he's dead and Academy voters respect that.

If I read one more early review comparing this to Godfather II, I'm skipping it and watching Mama Mia! instead. I'm a comic geek, but damn, I can still admit that at the end of it this is a movie about a dude who wears armored underwear and sails off the tops of buildings using his magical glider cape.

Hmm, I wasn't that impressed by those first five minutes so I'm not so sure it will be as good as its hype, but I am sure I will be in a very, very . . . very, small minority.

You mean it's even better than the soon - to - be legendary IronMan? Haven't seen that, either.

Listen Parrot, you bastard, if wearing armored underwear is wrong, I don't want to be right.

I will only go see it if a man offers to take me to see it...that's my policy on superhero movies...by the way, IronMan was way better than I expected...and Robert Downey Jr. is still alive for me to crush on!
