There’s Uppies, and Then There’s Downey’s

Oops, five sentence fiction? Goggles?
How about 15 sentence fiction and make it “Giggles”?

Lillie McFerrin posts a “Five Sentence Fiction” prompt.
This week it is: Goggles?

There’s Uppies, and Then There’s Downey’s (Iron Man 3)

Agent: The studio is already calling you for the fourth movie sequel.
Robert: I couldn’t care less at this point.
Agent: Robert, you have to strike when the iron’s hot.
Robert: Was that supposed to be a pun? While the iron’s hot? How iron-ic!
Agent: Huh?
Robert: It was just a little heavy metal humor. Listen, you convinced me to do this third version. Okay, but now I really need to have something that I can sink my teeth into.
Agent: You want a vampire movie?
Robert: Since when have you become a comedian? I pay you to be my agent. Get me something serious.
Agent: This is serious.
Robert: I’ll be making these Iron Man movies until I’m an old man.
Agent: Yes, they already have the final episode planned. They’re calling it “Scrap Metal”.

Haha. It could be filmed somewhere in the Rust Belt. And is Downey on uppies or downies these days? Not a fan.

great fun comments, Janet.
Downy is straight these days, supposedly.
I like him but his earlier works are phenomenal. Too bad he went down hill on drugs.
I like his Sherlock Holmes – but this guy has so much more to his talents, and I’d like to see him do more, again.

  I like Benedict Cumberbatch as “Sherlock” in the BBC production, even though its hectic scene changes are more for those whose attention spans were shortened by Sesame Street. You might enough this link of otters that look like Benedict Cumberbatch. It’s really quite well done. http://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/2012/03/19/otters-who-look-like-benedict-cumberbatch_n_1362375.html

Lovely dialogue. ‘Scrap Metal’ is a fantastic idea.

Janet from sustainabilitea wrote Rust Belt – in addition to Scrap Metal, it could be called Rust Bucket.
