7. Iron-Man 3

The Marvel Cinematic Universe hinges on us caring about Tony Stark. He's such a major component of the mythos that his stories need to be handled with the utmost care. 'Iron Man 2' didn't exactly do that, so they needed to bring in the big guns: Shane Black. You may know him from writing 'Lethal Weapon,' 'Kiss Kiss Bang Bang,' and 'Last Action Hero.' OK, so maybe 'Last Action Hero' doesn't evoke greatness, but those other movies are great! He directed this movie, putting his stamp on it while also making something that very much feels like an Iron Man movie.

This movie really pins Tony Stark down as a hero on par with someone like Captain America. Considering future movies would have them face off, that's a very important component. Who do you got? Captain or Iron Man?

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.
