Cool Guys Don't Look at Explosions Video Lyrics - Andy Samberg & Will Ferrell




It's the truth. How many cool guys in action movies can you recall who look back at the explosion they've just left? They just walk straight forward for the slow mo camera shot. This music video/digital short by Andy Samberg (playing Bruce Springsteen) features Will Ferrell at Neil Diamond, and JJ Abrams as well playing along. Video clips from various movies are mixed in to show just what they're talking about. Great stuff from Samberg, et al.

Here's the lyrics for "Cool Guys Don't Look at Explosions" song (no mp3 available yet), by Andy Samberg and Will Ferrell featuring JJ Abrams...

Intro (Samberg):
It seems like these days the whole world's on fire.
Things keep blowin' the hell up,...
And while all those rubberneckers and looky loos stand slackjawed starin,
The real men have the nuts to walk away.


Song:
Cool guys don't look at explosions
They blow things up and then walk away
Who's got time to watch an explosion?
Because cool guys have errands that they have to walk to..
Keep walkin', keep shinin'
Don't look back keep on walkin'
Keep struttin' slow motion
The more you ignore it, the cooler you look

Samberg: Ladies & gentlemen, please join me in welcoming..
Mr. Neil Diamond!

Will Ferrell: ha ha ha....Where are we?!

Cool guys don't look at explosions
They stride for it in their diamond covered boots
They wear jumpsuits with glitter and rhinestones
And walk away in slow motion..
Keep walkin, you're cruisin..
Cherry Cherry...Sweet Caroline..
Denzel walks...
Will Smith walks...
Mark Wahlberg is wearin a hat!

Samberg: Going solo....JJ Abrams!

JJ Abrams solo
Yeah!
Okay.

Because,
Cool guys don't look at explosions,
Walk fast from the roaring explosion,
And don't think about the people you killed

2...3...4!
JJ Abrams outro

Movie Review: Iron Man


iron man movie poster It's been out for just a few weeks, but has made box office records becoming the second best "non-sequel" comic book release, earning well over $200 million. Iron Man definitely has his share of fans from the Marvel comic world, and the movie does a great job at introducing us to this heroic man of metal.

Robert Downey Jr. takes on the role of Tony Stark, a wealthy bachelor who loves partying, women and enjoys a careless sort of attitude. He's also a weapons manufacturer and dealer, behind the powerful Stark Industries. Stark travels to a small mid-eastern town to showcase his latest Jericho missile to military personnel and prospective buyers. After the missile display is a success, the enemy attacks the military trucks, one of which is transporting Stark. Stark escapes the ride, but manages to get badly injured. He wakes up a captive of the enemy. But he also finds another problem. Shrapnel has entered his chest and is dangerously close to his heart. Luckily his roommate in the cave prison is able to build a special magnetic device to stay in Tony's chest, keeping him alive and "ticking".

From there Stark must escape from the heavily guarded cave, in the process building a powerful metal suit complete with weapons. After arriving back home, Stark has a change of heart in several ways, and devotes himself to more just purposes rather then arms manufacturing. He refines the suit, its weapons and abilities, and sets off to do battle with various enemies. The battles are worth the wait of watching Tony build and test his new suit out for a while. The movie was a little light on humor when compared to movies such as X-Men and Spiderman, but holds its own and deserves to be mentioned with those great films.

Overall, I recommend this movie to comic book fans, or fans of the high powered full force special effects movies that tend to rule the Hollywood box office. Iron Man makes great use of its cast and special effects. Things have come a long way since the days of Robocop, with Iron Man moving gracefully yet powerfully as he battles those up to no good. The movie also features a brief cameo from Marvel comics legend Stan Lee, and a short musical piece from Wu Tang's Tony Stark, Ghostface Killah.

The movie not only stars Robert Downey, Jr. but also award-winning actress Gwyneth Paltrow, actors Jeff Bridges and Terrance Howard. There's a special part at the end credits as well featuring Samuel L. Jackson, so be sure to stay all the way through if possible, a sequel is in the works!
