There really wasn't any chance of me seeing Made of Honor and you have just confirmed all my expectations of the flick.

On the other hand, forbidden Kingdom was a ton of fun and the fight between Jet Li and Jackie Chan was worth the price of admission all on it's own. Sadly, it sounds like Forbidden Kingdom had more intriguing twists than Made of Honor.

It's amazing how difficult it is to make a good superhero movie but Iron Man suceeds spectacularly. There was even a believable character progression in that Tony Stark never quite stopped being a selfish asshole even as he got more lovable.

Yes, EXACTLY! He didn't have to undergo a radical personality change -- he just had to be HUMAN (with all the same flaws he had before), but with a touch more awareness and now with some idea of personal responsibility for the weapons he's designed and the uses they've been put to. Loved it.
