Officially swooning over Iron Man

For so long Johnny Depp, John Cusack, Will Smith and well who cares all other names escape me. After seeing Iron Man this evening I can firmly and without doubt assure you my celebrity crush is Robert Downey, Jr. And quite frankly I don't care that he is in his 40s.

Now ladies, I know, you probably are scoffing at me as he has never really played a role in which he was heart throb worthy. However, I am certain there are many, many, many, MANY women fantasizing about Robert Downey, Jr. now.

Obviously Tony Stark is a heart throb comic icon. I mean everything about his character is ruthless and yet so charismatic. My God what is must have felt to be Pepper! Look at him all buff for the part I definitely have a thing for shoulders, that perfect facial hair scruff! Hot damn!



So then I began my research.

Here is an interview snippet: Whilst his character was encased in metal, Downey Jr. still had to prepare physically, to ensure he wouldn’t look out of place getting into his armour. "I trained a lot! If you're 22 or 32 you train for 6 weeks and look great for 6 months. Whereas I trained for 6 months and look good for about 6 seconds." Hehehe.

And I found this site. How did I not know he had an album released in 2004!? His song "Broken" is utterly amazing. I am going to have to buy the album now.

Yes, yes I am ga-ga!

Pardon me while I drool, sigh a little and bite my lip a bit. I hope his wife Susan knows how lucky she is...I mean even though she is beautiful and probably makes him wicked lucky, too.

I whole heartedly agree in the ratings, though I would give it 4 stars. The acting, the effects, the music all of it was fantastic. Braeden and I waited until the credits ended and yes there is something to wait for. I wasn't sure, but I had to wait, I had to know. And I am sooooooooooooo excited at the prospects. The last minute clip showed Samuel Jackson and gave us a teaser for The Avengers!
