Last night the DBF and I saw Iron Man, which really lacked in action, considering it’s an action movie. I found the many scenes that show him tinkering away at the Iron Man suit incredibly dull…even all the whiz-bang technology the filmmakers dreamt up didn’t really impress.
But one thing I did appreciate, was the sly reference to real-life. In the film, Iron Man is the CEO of a military weapons company called Stark Industries. The company’s logo looks suspiciously like Lockheed-Martin‘s:
And come to think of it, I think I remember Lockheed’s slogan being used in the film. Wonder if the director has a beef with them…It’s the little things like that in a movie that I can appreciate.
