As an Iron Man (the movie) fan, I have to say that I'm glad this little gem was cut from the movie.


Party scene cut from the film, found in the DVD extras coming out in September

Not only does it really jar with the flow of the movie - this scene is supposed to come after Tony hears about Gulmira (the Afghani village) and goes on his first real mission as Iron Man - but it's ummm really icky.
Ach, but that's just personal observation.
But really, eww

In any event, I really like that Tony went all Gong-Ho into the situation, it suits his personality as an impulsive mad scientist. Not to mention that this happens after the scene where Tony and Pepper have an almost-kiss and then he leaves her because his conscience is eating away at his over bloated ego. Thus the whole would-be debauchery in this cut scene may make sense to Pepper who thinks Tony's getting back in the saddle of meaningless sex, but dude... that's gotta burn.
Though I liked the wreckage that Pepper encounters Tony sitting in; it gives a clue to his mood, though it's a little lost since he's playing it stoic.
And *snerk* at the anti-bacterial soap hand-shake.

So it's an icky scene, demeans Pepper and doesn't do credit to Tony Stark's character.
All in all... I'm glad it was cut and so should you be.

V and Justice

V: Ah, I was forgetting that we are not properly introduced. I do not have a name. You can call me V. Madam Justice...this is V. V... this is Madam Justice. hello, Madam Justice.

Justice: Good evening, V.

V: There. Now we know each other. Actually, I've been a fan of yours for quite some time. Oh, I know what you're thinking...

Justice: The poor boy has a crush on me...an adolescent fatuation.

V: I beg your pardon, Madam. It isn't like that at all. I've long admired you...albeit only from a distance. I used to stare at you from the streets below when I was a child. I'd say to my father, "Who is that lady?" And he'd say "That's Madam Justice." And I'd say "Isn't she pretty."

V: Please don't think it was merely physical. I know you're not that sort of girl. No, I loved you as a person. As an ideal.

Justice: What? V! For shame! You have betrayed me for some harlot, some vain and pouting hussy with painted lips and a knowing smile!

V: I, Madam? I beg to differ! It was your infidelity that drove me to her arms!

V: Ah-ha! That surprised you, didn't it? You thought I didn't know about your little fling. But I do. I know everything! Frankly, I wasn't surprised when I found out. You always did have an eye for a man in uniform.

Justice: Uniform? Why I'm sure I don't know what you're talking about. It was always you, V. You were the only one...

V: Liar! Slut! Whore! Deny that you let him have his way with you, him with his armbands and jackboots!

V: Well? Cat got your tongue? I though as much.

V: Very well. So you stand revealed at last. you are no longer my justice. You are his justice now. You have bedded another.

Justice: Sob! Choke! Wh-who is she, V? What is her name?

V: Her name is Anarchy. And she has taught me more as a mistress than you ever did! She has taught me that justice is meaningless without freedom. She is honest. She makes no promises and breaks none. Unlike you, Jezebel. I used to wonder why you could never look me in the eye. Now I know. So good bye, dear lady. I would be saddened by our parting even now, save that you are no longer the woman I once loved.

*KABOOM!*

-"V for Vendetta"
