Saw this last night, I was so damn stoked. One of the better movies Ive seen in a LONG time.

I think Robert Downey actually fits the part perfectly. Me and one of my best friends were quoting it all day at work. (Like when I almost fell and busted my ass from an oil slick..)

"Yeah, I can fly"

My $.02

Psh...Whatev.

I went and saw this Thursday night (Midnight Showing)...
and,
This movie, was MORE than I expected it to be.

Robert Downey Jr. could not have been more perfect for this role.

I literally have NO complaints about this movie.

From beginning to end, There were a lot of flags raised in my head that made me wonder, "C'mon now, that's a little far fetched",
But at another point in the movie, or once it clicked, there was always an explanation, making things very realistic.

I love how they went ahead and threw terrorism in the movie, too. :)

Storyline was amazing, Actor/esses were Above Par, Special Effects were 10/10, and I was MORE than satisfied.

GO SEE IT! :D

Same here!!! I actually looked at Laura and said 'What?? That was Gwenyth Paltrow? Damn!'

It was the scene with the dress that did it for me ;)

Ok guys I just got back from seeing the movie and I thought it was good. Definitely action packed. And I did stay for the credits to see the last scene. One word describes that "sequel." lol The blonde journalist was pretty hot.

And even the story lesson was compelling.

Just back from the movie....had to take the late showing because they were getting sold out so fast. I must say this movie is great, on par with Batman Begins and the Spiderman movies as far as story depth and development goes. Stan Lee makes his apperance as usual. I would have to rate this film a 9.5 out of 10; it is epic.:bigthumb:

Transformers looked stupid to me to and it apparently was a great movie. Not into the whole comic book thing. I may check it out when it comes to video. Same thing w/ Speed Racer, looks dumb.

I'm not a theater type person anyway.

Matt, I was NEVER into comic books and the whole superhero thing, and never will be.

People keep saying that "If you were into comic book heros, you'll love this movie".

To be honest, I think ANYBODY who likes good acting, lots of action and great special effects, would love this movie.

I knew who IronMan was when I was young, and the closest thing I came to knowing about Transformers when I was young was playing with a few of the "transforming" toys.

And both of these movies are now highly ranked in some of my favorites of all time.

:Ninja Edit: Now Speed Racer, I DO think looks dumb.

I usually hate all comic book/video games turned into movie ideas. Up until now, V for Vendetta was the only decent conversion IMHO. Now Ironman is added to that list. This movie was freaking awesome.

It was very weird to see Jeff Bridges bald, I'm used to "The Dude".
