I’m not watching the Super Bowl (is it still on?). I’m just not that masculine. I did watch a double header of My Small Breasts and I and My Large Breasts and Me on BBC America, though, so while y’all saw a bunch of dudes in tight pants running around I was watching two hours of British babes in their bras.
What I missed, though, was the new Iron Man commercial – but it’s thankfully already online for my viewing pleasure at the Iron Man website, which you can visit by clicking here. It’s a quick spot, filled with action and not much of the character warmth that was in the first teaser trailer – but then again, this is a Super Bowl ad. The target audience isn’t looking to find out the relationship between Tony Stark and James Rhodes, they just want to be made aware there’s a movie about a guy in a Blow Shit Up Suit coming this summer.
My only qualm about the whole commercial is that bit at the end, where Shellhead blows up the tank: it doesn’t look sort of like a cut scene from a video game, it looks exactly like a cut scene from a video game. Granted, it’s a cut scene that would make people online cream their jeans, but it looks way too PS3 for my tastes. Let’s hope that the finished version is a little more realistic and doesn’t have me mashing the X button.

I've seen both of those specials on BBC America already. And since I am currently watching the Bowl, I have to admit that I agree you made the better choice.
I love people that take pride in not watching sports, as if they don't engage in equally trivial activities on a regular basis.
Also, watching a documentary about women coping with their too small or too large breast sizes probably means you're gay, so I wouldn't be throwing that around as some sort of hetero badge of honor. Footage of women jumping around for two hours topless, yes. Human drama about boobs, no. Not even a little bit.
You may be a little suspect(on the sexual orientation thing), but I agree on the video game looking scene.
So you're saying watching a show about breasts means you're gay? but watching fat dudes in spandex running into each other means you're not gay ?yea good one retard
Odds are Devin's never had sex with a woman.
Great trailer. Even better Super Bowl. I'm not gay, I only got a boner two or three times during the Super Bowl, but that was mostly due to Tom Petty. Watching football doesn't make me intellectually suspect, my lack of intellect does. One of the best Super Bowls I've ever seen.
Right on Panda. I'd like to see Devin write a nice long diatribe about his hatred of sports. I know his MO is that if he doesn't like something, it Sucks Hard!, but is there some well-reasoned explanation to it? This isn't meant as a personal attack on Devin, as I enjoy his opinions, even when they are totally different from mine. And before anyone points out that "this site is teh movies", this topic is at least as relevant as that story he told about the guy on the LA bus drinking his own puke a few months ago.
