So is everyone excited for Iron Man?

[clovis-man]

Looks like it might be fun. I appreciate it when such films don't take themselves too seriously. This one seems like it might be that way, ala Hellboy. That would be a good thing.

[Hilarious Joke]

I'll add my two cents to the 'excited' pile. Is that a mixed metaphor?

[dekket]

Excited. Hopefully it is good.

[Aniri]

Ahhhh! I'll be attending the Comic Con this weekend in NYC Hellboy will be there I wonder how many folks will be dressed as Iron Man?

[kyektulu]

I cannot wait for Iron Man, will def be going to see that asap!

[Talysia]

Being a Marvel fan, I'll be interested to see how Iron Man turns out.

[zoran]

From my point of view, Marvel usually sucks. But this one is going to have good soundtrack, if nothing else.

Dr. Strange was great, and had some of the best villians. Almost put my hands on a copy of his premiere in Strange Tales, but the seller changed his mind at the last minute.

While I don't have the Tales to Astonish issue that Iron Man premiered in either, I do have Iron Man #1, and old shell head has also always been a favorite of mine. I thought the movies varied (First X-Men was great, the Hulk absolutely stunk), so I'd like this one not to stink (the trailer IS promising...).

Personally, I wouldn't have cast Downey for Tony Stark... I always saw him as a sort of swarthy latin-lover type. But Downey's good, and I'm certainly not holding that against them. I'm trying to figure out how soon I can drag my wife down to see it, without risking the teeny-bopper crowds that usually keep us away from premiere weeks.

[Stone]

Agree with you on that one Steve. No chance the wife will go along but the avoidance of the "teenyboppers" is high on the list of priorities, while still trying to see it this weekend

Honestly, I'm a little burnt out on comic book/super hero movies. The only one I am looking forward too is Batman, other than that I would like to skip the rest, but since my husband is a fan, I will probably be roped into watching Ironman.

I saw it a couple of days ago.

Pretty great! Graphics were awesome, Downing was great, and the last line of the movie is classic.

[murphy]

Robert Downey looked quite buff in the trailer that I saw. I haven't read a comic book in years, but I do enjoy the occasional superhero movie and this looks like one I would like.

[Hilarious Joke]

Best superhero movie since Spiderman.

[HoopyFrood]

I watched this last night and I really enjoyed it. Downey was great as Tony Stark; despite being annoyingly arrogant at the beginning, you couldn't help but like him still. The action bits were great, but it wasn't smashing and crashing all the way through -- there were a lot of slower bits which were equally as good. And although I expected the end, it was still awesome when it was said.

I've watched quite a few of the superhero films that are being thrown out lately (Spiderman, Fantastic Four etc) and this was definitely one of my favourites.

And I re-he-he-heally want power armour!
