Robert Downey Jr went from nearing obscurity to this massive role that would change the course of his career. He plays Tony Stark perfectly. What makes him such a great character is how flawed he is. That's the problem with many comic book heroes. If they do have flaws, the flaws don't make for strong character choices. Tony Stark is beyond flawed. He's a maniac. He's a jerk. He's a troublemaker. But he also has the capacity to care and save lives.
Jon Favreau directed this one, and also placed himself into the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Happy Hogan. That's what I'd do, but I'd make sure to write myself in as a character who was guaranteed to be in every movie. An immortal character. I gotta get paid, am I right? I'm interested in job security.
Over the years, weve seen so many food trends come and go, such as ramen burgers, matcha, and spiked ice-cream. Nowadays, were seeing another trend making waves in the food industry. How many times today have you seen an Instagram photo of a scoop of black ice cream, or a cup of black yogurt, or hamburgers with black buns? Indeed, the charcoal trend has taken the world by storm.
So, what gives your latte that deep black shade? Activated charcoal, or coconut ash, is produced by heating coconut shells to insanely high temperatures until theyre burnt to a crisp. The ashes are then increased in size by steaming at high temperatures. Through this process, the ashes become a strong detoxifier, mostly because they become extra absorbent. This product may be purchased in pill form, and promises to alleviate hangovers, minimize the effects of food poisoning, and fight the visible signs of aging.
Activated charcoal is said to boost ones energy as a result of decreasing toxins in the body. However, no evidence proves that detoxifying can lead to increased energy. Also, while it can help cure a hangover, it doesnt necessarily remove alcohol from your blood. It is also said to aid in debloating your stomach because it cleanses your colon but again, this all anecdotal and isnt supported by scientific evidence as of yet. All we can say for sure is that it is a proven detoxifier.
