Perhaps The Most Important Docudrama Detailing What Alcoholic Multi-Billionaire Arms Industrialists Are Doing To Help The World

Yes, "Iron Man" was awesome-riffic, but more importantly it revived the career of Robert Downey, Jr., put Jon Favreau in a much better position to direct his own projects and gave Jeff Bridges at least ONE summer blockbuster to add to his belt of interesting performances in little seen films.

Also, it made Gwynneth Paltrow sort of watchable again.

But why didn't they have the guts to put this haunting ballad from the original cartoon into the film?

Did they only have enough in the music budget for one "Iron Man" song, and, well, the Black Sabbath song does speak to the core demographic...

sigh.
