he forgot to say how iron man ends up banging aunt may at the end. spiderman flips out...but the hulk takes a dump on him and he dies.

From the previews it looks like crap. I never liked Downey Jr.

it received a 94% fresh rating on rottentomatoes.com in which no other film in that genre has earned. i am going to see it today and i will give my opinion. i am a marvel fan and iron man is one of my favorites. they better not mess him up.

GKF is a h8ter!

If you love Marvel and IronMan you will be geeked out. Downey Jr. Played Stark the way he comes off in the comics. Perfect!

I put possible spoilers just in case someone came on and talked about the story, btw. I don't wanna be the first to spoil. After this weekend its all good.

I have zero knowledge of IronMan from any previous genre.

I love Downey Jr. and the previews simply look awesome.

Sadly - I am probably going to have to wait for it to come to DVD- perhaps by then I will have a hi def tv & blu ray.

.....getting the right character is pretty much on the money for marvel in movies. i was disappointed with marvel story content of the silver surfer

Marvel screwed up all their movies so far......spiderman was cool to see on the big screen but they went ahead and screwed that up. Toby Mcguire is a terrible Spidey. Toby has no personality. They should have gotten a comedian to play spidey, or at least someone with awesome timing. Like in my opinion, the dude that played venom shoulda been spidey. Watch "that 70's show" and you will know what I mean. His charecter on that show is spidey. And yo the girl that's playing mary jane? What? She is ugly as hell. She is just so unattractive. Mary Jane is supposed to be one of the most beautiful people on the planet. They should have gotten that red head that's doing dancing with the stars right now. She would have been a perfect jean cuz she is beautiful, slim and shapely, and hilarious. It would have been perfect.

The xmen series was entertaining but they totally ****ed the story. They casted storm all wrong, and though hugh jackman played an awesome wolvie, he's too tall and slim. Call me retarded but they should have cast "the Macho man" randy savage to play him. Tell me that wouldn't have been awesome! Btw the girl they got to play jean is too strong of a person to be a weak nieve jean. Just wrong.

DC learned their lesson with the awesome real sequel to the original superman movie and the new batman series casted perfectly by american psycho jason bale. The new one with the joker is gonna be one of the greatest films ever.

Fyi......the new hulk film is gonna be good. They totally trashed the old movie and started new. They have david banner on the run from the goverment like he should be and the hulk is gonna fight the abomination! That fight might be just as good as the neo vs agent in the final matrix movie.

I'm pumped as you can see. Again downey is Iron man....good fanboy movie.

eny, have you ever read the watchmen?

you are talking about close to fifty years of comic continuency. of course they are going to tweak it and make it different. spidey 1 was a blast and raimi dirested it right. not to much of a fan of spidey 2 but the train action sequence is one of the best i have ever seen. x-men was decent but a start. imo, x2 was by far the best of all superhero movies because of the layer story telling similar to the comics. they actually made blade better than his comic book counterpart which is great. the other marvel movies did have major flaws. however dc only got batman begins right. superman returns was alright but this is superman. he is an icon and needs a movie that kick ***! this one definately didn't do it. not to mention the other dc classics such as catwoman, steel and a league of extraordinary gentleman. instead of coing a planned justice league movie, it would be cool if they did green lanter, imo an underrated character.

The movie is good man.....downey is a perfect Iron Man. Perfect! Best Marvel movie thus far as far as setting up a marvelous story and spot on interpretation of the main charecter.

I saw it tuesday at a free screening, don't hate.......and I saw it today with my son and baby sister. It still was good. Fanboys will love it.....even people who don't like comic movies. Highly recomended

You saw it for free??? You suck!

Just kidding. I always' been a Jr. fan and am glad to see him get the role. I didn't see it yet, but I gotta say that it looks pretty good. I am a huge Marvel fan and enjoyed just about all of the comic movies so far, Except 'Dare Devil'. Ruined by that lousy actor Ben Fleck (or whatever you call it). I know Hellboy comes out of Dark Horse, but he's one of my favorites also.

Also, I didn't think I'd like 'I Am Legend' but finally took a look and must say. I rather enjoyed it. The deserted NYC was very convincing!

eny, have you ever read the watchmen?

Never read it but its supposed to be awesome. I gotta try to cop the graphic novel before the movie comes out. It came out as DC and always used to ignore them.

You into this story?

duno, I never was a big DC fan. What's the point of superman? He's always been just too powerful. And crypt is the only thing that can stop him? He needs more weaknesses. And I'm totally turned off by batman. Thats now a chicago character, since they been filming there the last two times and just way' too many different guys playing the character. Used and abused. No more, just give me the 60's television version and I'm happy.

It was ok. I didn't think it was the best Marvel character based movie at all.
