Movie Review: Iron Man 3

The long awaited third entry in the Iron Man franchise has arrived. Iron Man 3 takes place after the events in New York during The Avengers. Being a sequel, you might want to see Iron Man, Iron Man 2, and The Avengers prior to seeing Iron Man 3. Of the three previous films, events from The Avengers are the only ones that is actually referenced though out the movie.

Gwyneth Paltrow stepped up her stunt skills during Iron Man 3 and plays a much larger role now that her character Pepper Potts is living with Tony Stark (Robert Downey, Jr.). The young boy, played by an adorable Ty Simpkins, helped to show a more human side to the playboy inventor.

The 3D effects of Iron Man 3 were not worth the extra few dollars. In IMAX it might be better, but I saw the regular 3D version. There were action scenes that you expected things to pop off the screen, but it was minimal at best.

As with all Marvel movies, Stan Lee made a quick cameo. As usual with Marvel, there is a short scene after the credits but the credits lasted forever. There had to be at least a hundred names, if not more listed for working on the film. There was also a nice homage to Douglas Adams with the current suit being mach 42.

My personal opinion of this film is that any fan of superhero films will enjoy Iron Man 3. I enjoyed it much better than Iron Man 2 however I feel it tied with The Avengers. It was well paced and had a little of everything.

Iron Man 3 will be released nation wide on May 3, 2013. Check out my weekly post, Making Cents with Cori, on Cinemit for weekly specials on tickets and concessions.

Change Your LivingSocial Password

Did you get an email today from LivingSocial? It seems that they were hacked recently and while their credit card database was not reached, they are recommending that all users change their passwords as a precaution.

LivingSocial recently experienced a cyber-attack on our computer systems that resulted in unauthorized access to some customer data from our servers. We are actively working with law enforcement to investigate this issue.

The database that stores customer credit card information was not affected or accessed.

Although your LivingSocial password would be difficult to decode, we want to take every precaution to ensure that your account is secure, so we are expiring your old password and requesting that you create a new one.

Goldstar Offers Comp Tickets to Local Events

Goldstar is a deal site that offers discount tickets to all types of entertainment including concerts, plays, comedy clubs, sporting events, and more. Even when a ticket is advertised as "free" you will have to pay a small service fee but you will still save tons of money over buying the tickets the traditional way.

Right now, Goldstar is hosting a promotion called Comp Train which is tons of deals that only require you to pay the service fee. For example, a $20 comedy show is only $6 after the service fee.

Goldstar will automatically show you local tickets, but if you are planning a trip you can look up shows for other locations. I've also seen historic tours on Goldstar so it's a good place to start for entertainment.
