Iron Man

Post by Executioner »

Man this flick was great! Just got back from seeing it with the wife, and I was really impressed. Robert Downey did an excellent job as Iron Man. Great action scenes with funny humor. Gwyneth Paltrow plays as "Pepper" and was she hot. Also, since most of us are computer nuts, you will be amazed at the computer systems that Stark utilizes. The multiple screens, instant holographic reproductions, and the ability to interact with the 3D presentations are excellent. This might be a good example of future pc systems. All the CGI in the movie were not overdone and it has the right balance. If you liked Batman Begins, you will like this movie. A must see!

Ironman uses Dell servers... a LOT of them... gotta love that in-movie branding.

I've heard good things (particularly suprise about Robert Downey's ability to do an action/SF flick).

he pretty much is just an ass in real life, and that is what Tony Stark is in the comics.

Agreed, this movie is bad ass. If you stayed through the end credits too there was a cool surprise.
There is more coming from what I have read.

word is IRON MAN 2 in 2010 per this press release .
his weekend was just the beginning of Hollywood's Iron age.

Marvel Studios announced Monday it will release "Iron Man 2" on April 30, 2010, following the success of the first in the comic-book franchise, which pulled in $104.2 million domestically since opening last Thursday and $201 million worldwide.

Four other films based on Marvel superheroes also were announced: "Thor," due out June 4, 2010; "The First Avenger: Captain America," May 6, 2011; "The Avengers," July 2011; and "Ant-Man," which is in development but has no release date.

Marvel also has "The Incredible Hulk," starring Edward Norton, coming out this June 13 from Universal Studios. http://apnews.excite.com/article/200805 ... MRIO0.html
