| Iron Man 2 | Studying for a Final | Winner
(1 point per category) |
| Clearest Title | I won't know for sure until I watch the trailer, but this seems like the sequel to Iron Man. | I won't know for sure until I get my grade back, but this seems like an epic failure. | I was planning to study all Saturday night, but now I'm going to go watch Iron Man 2. It gets the point for the clearest title. |
Best Genre
and Rating | Superhero Adventure
Rated PG-13 for sequences of intense sci-fi action and violence, and some language.
| Horror
Rated R for strong sequences of insomnia, crying, usage of Red Bull, and excessive wearing of sweatpants.
| It's time for a good ol' Marvel universe movie. Point once again for Iron Man 2. |
Cleverest Tagline
(out of 5 stars) | "N/A"
WHAT??? No tagline?!?!? You are one of the biggest releases of the year and you don't have a tagline??
0/5 stars
| "Never sleep again"
Okay, so I just kept the same tagline up from last week's A Nightmare on Elm Street. Clever.
2/5 stars
| "Have you had your daily dose of Iron?" or "What's more powerful than one Iron Man?"
People should hire me to write taglines. Point for studying finals.

| Best Part of Trailer | Whoa, there were like two good Iron Men, one bad Iron Man, and a bunch of bad robotic Iron Men. There's going to be some action in this film. | Watching the trailer of Iron Man 2 is the only good thing about my life this weekend. | I hate studying. I wish I was Tony Stark. Point for Iron Man 2. |
| Coolest Lead Actor | Robert Downey Jr. You have seen him in Tropic Thunder, Sherlock Holmes, and on Ally McBeal. You probably did not watch him in The Shaggy Dog and Gothika. | Myself. Because I'm 'acting' like I know the difference between ionic and covalent bonding. | Robert Downey Jr.'s picture is beside the phrase "Coolest lead actor" in the dictionary. Point for him. |
| Best Cast Member | Scarlett Johansson. You have seen her in He's Just Not That Into You and Lost in Translation. You probably did not watch her in The Island. | I think about Scarlett Johansson way too much while I'm studying finals. | Way too much. Point for her. |
Best Street Cred
For the Production | Director Jon Favreau has directed Iron Man and Elf and has acted in a lot of movies (usually with Vince Vaughn or Will Ferrell). | What? I'm sorry, I was still thinking about Scarlett Johansson. | I think it's cool that Mr. Favreau is a successful actor AND director. Point for him. |
