Iron Man Movie Tie-Ins

review 1: Lebih suka novel Iron Man pertama hasil adaptasi Peter David. Dan lebih suka versi filmnya, karena improvisasi cerita, dialog, dan aksi yang lebih menarik dari naskah yang diadaptasi jadi novel kedua ini (mungkin ini baru naskah draft pertama, barangkali?).And you know what, Ex-wife-nya Justin Hammer berjasa besar di ending novel ini, padahal aksi senjata teknologi mutakhir Hammer Industries ini di filmnya bikin aku ngakak abis.
review 2: What have they done? And can Iron Man himself hold those responsible accountable? A shot to the cranium with a repulsor ray is certainly in order for them.There's really only one place to begin with this review and that is the unforgivable editing that was inconceivably bad and left me in disgust. On page 70 we are introduced ... moreto Natalie Rushman where she steps into the ring with Happy and nothing transpires according to the text other than her flipping the gloves back to Happy. Later in the novel on page 82..."...Pepper had been ever so slightly suspicious of Natalie Rushman since she had let slip that loaded comment in Tony's gym, which had led to her demolition of Happy Hogan."Whoa, hold on a minute there! If Tony Stark's soon to be assistant had just beaten up Happy, who is an ex champion boxer, don't you think that would be integral to the story on pages 70 & 71 when the scene took place? Apparently not. I'm assuming it's poor editing as I recall seeing a few spelling errors one of which was "though" when it should have read "through" but I'll be damned if I'm rereading this trash just to find the page number as evidence.The action sequences in this novel where just too campy for my liking with silly humor thrown in when the tension should have been rising. One example of that would be at the race in Monaco when Ivan starts destroying everything and Pepper, caught up in the fray, spits out a mouthful of seat cushion. Ha frickin' ha.I actually feel sorry for those people who are reading an Iron Man novel for the first time and if you are one of those I can assure you that this is not the norm for an Iron Man novel. Greg Cox wrote two wonderful Iron Man novels 'Iron Man: Operation A.I.M.' and 'Iron Man: Armor Trap' which are far superior to this one in every way.I also feel sorry for Alexander Irvine who is a well known name in the fantasy/sci-fi universe. He surely done his best in writing this novel but he was working from a screenplay and only the quality of his storytelling kept this book out of my hall of shame.Needless to say I will not be checking out the movie which is a huge shame as I'm a Marvel addict but sometimes you just have to let your pocket do the talking. Unfortunately, it matters little as there is already an Iron Man 3 on the horizon and this franchise will make a fortune regardless of how shitty their tie-in novels are. less
