What’s wrong with me?

Posted in Atheism by Allen on the June 1st, 2008

I’d been looking forward to seeing Iron Man for weeks, and my wife and I finally had the opportunity to see it yesterday. The reviews have been great, and everyone I know who had seen it told me they really enjoyed it. I have to say, however, that I didn’t like it–in fact, I actually hated it. I found the plot tedious and predictable, and the characters flat and unsympathetic. It’s hard to believe it was made by the same company that did the wonderful Spider-Man series.

For those of you who saw it–what am I missing here? Why do I seem to be the only person in North America who isn’t raving about it?

    I don’t think the Iron Man actually exists.

    I know how you feel. Not about Iron Man, I enjoyed that, but I feel like I’m the only person on the planet who didn’t like Juno (as a disclaimer, I didn’t hate it, just didn’t feel it was worthy of all the praise it got).

    Stephen,

    May I suggest that you go to friendlyatheist.com. They need to hear from you.
    They write a lot about a Person who in their universe does not exist.

    I wonder why.
