Well, I finally saw Iron Man the night before.
What an awesome movie. Loved it so much, I watched it again last night. (I purchased it on iTunes, $9.99).
If you havent seen this movie yet, I highly recommend it. Fantastic...
Could you just imagine such a suit where you could fly around like that? Brilliant....
Loved his shop/garage. Kitchen, computer design center, hotrods. And check out that private airliner with the wild tail and compression lift wings...

Wow, just now seeing it? I saw it twice at the theatre and bought the DVD when it came out (way back when, LOL), watched that about 20 times already, LOL. I am a big superhero fan and this was really well done. Check out the Hulk movie, there is a Tony Stark cameo at the end
Check out the trailer for Ironman 2 due out in may

I thought the fighting scenes were a bit over the top, but the rest of the movie was good. Overall it is very good for a superhero movie. They aren't known to be the strongest genre... (pun intended?)
Thanks for the heads up Michael. I didnt know AM2 was out soon. Looks like it will be good once again.
Snuffy, I didnt give away the themes of the movie, lol... Only some items that are in it.
You'll see...

Thanks for the IM2 trailer link Michael. I've heard there was a sequel but hadn't heard the date it was due out in the theaters.
And now I know what started the Thor joke in the Cantina.

Saw it in the theater when it first came out sometime back, liked it, good flick.
I look forward to your opinions of the movie, Bill, when you post them in 2012.

Back in the day, when I was in school, it was popular for all the guys to leave the school grounds and walk over to the local "newstand" in town. There we'd get such eats as Coke for a dime, and a bag of chips for a nickle ... and we'd sit and munch while we all read our favorite comics.
Then we'd all mosey back to the school and finish the day out.
But I was sure to get my hands on any of the following. Thor, Conan, Sgt Rock.

Iron Man was always my favourite comic book hero when I was a kid so it's fantastic to see the charachter brought to life on the big screen, and done so lovingly as well.

I am glad to see that Robert Downey Jr. had made a comeback. I've always like his movies, and in my opinion he is a great actor...................

Yep, that role was perfect for RDJ. If you haven't seen it, I'd highly recommend that you see Sherlock Holmes too.

do any of you remember his father?
I agree and yes, that was a great part for him in that movie for his character.
I followed his woes when he was going through rough times. Glad to see him coming about.
Man, wouldnt it be cool to have a garage like that??? well, and the house.. and the plane.. arrgh..

Ahhha, Downey Jr. making dry and sarcastic jokes and kicking a$$, it's an instant win
agreed, brilliant movieI'd highly recommend that you see Sherlock Holmes too
yes i know i cant spell half the time! Thank you kindly to those few who pointed that out
i thought it was this guy: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morton_Downey,_Jr.
but it's not
"Iron Man" was quite good for a superhero movie. At least I found it better than the (overhyped) "Dark Knight".
I personally found him way better in Tropic Thunder.
