enamouredWell, classes are over for me! Until I start summer classes! YAY.
I'm not looking forward to it, but I kind of am. Mostly because if/when I finish them, I GRADUATE. Which is awesome and terrifying at the same time. Relatedly, I was way stressed when I went in to see Dr. D on Wednesday, and I pretty much admitted that even though I've invested all of this time and money and years into broadcast and film/art, I still don't know for sure what I want to do. It was good to get that out and everything, especially because I was worried I was going to have a break down and cry moment at some point in one of my classes. God, I hate being a stress crier.
I made it through the last day of classes on five hours of sleep. There were other people in my film class who had been up like, all night and were operating on fumes. I ended up getting a tiny, tiny Slinky from my professor, which was neat. He has a box full of random things he gets when he goes off to festivals and tech shows and such, and the baby Slinky was among some of the things.
I got home around 3 because I was out shopping and stuff, and I was enjoying my first moment of Looking at Stuff on the Internet Just for Fun when I got a little sleepy. I was planning on going to one of the early shows for Iron Man 3 with Theresa and Jason, so I figured I could kind of lounge in bed for a little before. And "lounging" turned into a 90-minute nap. Whoops.
I did get to the movie--we went at 10 PM--and I got this awesome cocktail at the bar that they called a Reactor, and IT GLOWED. (There was an LED ice cube in it for that special arc reactor blue, but still, glowing alcohol.) So I'll end with that, and I DECLARE THIS AN IRON MAN 3 DISCUSSION POST. Spoilers may be found in the comments, proceed at your own risk. (I liked it LOOOOTS, and loved that it's basically another Shane Black/Robert Downey Jr. movie that takes place around Christmas.)

Date: 2013-05-04 05:19 am (UTC)I did like the characterization that they were all allowed to grow and expand in a natural way after New York.
I just felt like there were a lot of plot holes and things I either didn't care or could have done without or wanted a bit different.
If his shrapnel could be removed with simple surgery, WHAT WAS THE POINT OF IRON MAN 2???
He would have died for nothing basically. I know people say it shows how stubborn he is, but really?
I was also hoping for Coulson in the tri-movie montage...was that very Shane Black? I'm not really an expert on his films and it felt very Tarantino which I liked...although Garry Shandling over Clark Gregg? Really?
