An Iron Man 2 Movie Adventure

Despite the rain, the traffic, and the confusion that brought me and my two friends to Mall of Asia instead of SM Megamall for the Iron Man 2 advance screening, we still managed to make the mad rush to the other mall and got to watch the entire movie from start to finish (to the very end where a teaser scene was shown after all the end credits). Attending the premiere night was an adventure for us and it was well worth it.

Though I still like the first Iron Man movie better, Iron Man 2 has its own share of witty lines (my favorite from Tony Stark: "I successfully privatized world peace!"), amusing technology and kickass fight scenes. I guess I was expecting more action, given that Iron Man has found a sidekick in War Machine. But Iron Man 2 is still a worthwhile movie to watch and I'm sure the theaters will be packed on opening day. There's no doubt that it will make the cut in the blockbuster list.

Since we arrived at the venue late, I was unable to take photos of the people lounging around outside the cinema area. But I was told that some Pinoy celebrities were present and among them were Robin Padilla and Kier Legaspi. After the screening, Justice League posters were given out for free. I was too slow to grab some for myself but good thing my two friends were quick enough to secure some for themselves and a few extra for me. LOL!

Here are snap shots of the two sides of my Iron Man 2 premiere night ticket:

And here's the life-size Iron Man statue on display outside the cinema area:

Go watch Iron Man 2, showing in all cinemas nationwide (and in theaters worldwide as well) staring April 30. Labor Day weekend will surely be the perfect movie weekend for Iron Man afficionados.
