I loved it! Absolutely loved it. It had wit, and timing, and wonderful pace. Robert Downey Jr., good at playing a drunken playboy. Who'd have thought? |

and so many memorable quotes (Also my beloved though "Keep the sky clear for me" (or whatever the original text was... we saw the german version)) to be cheesy),... |

I loved it as well... when I first heard about Dwoney Jr., I was conflicted. I can't believe how well he played Stark, just awesome. |

Everything about the movie makes me want to watch it. I was never a huge fan of comic books, but read a large number all the same. When I was a kid, I always loved the idea of super armour, or a power suit. Also, personally, I've never seen Bob Downey in anything he didn't make look better. |

I did, in fact, see the film twice, partly to see the last scene (missed it the first time), and partly because Iron Man rocks. |

I didn't know about any form of last scene, which is annoying as I watched most of the 3D credits stuff. I think I can wait though, I'm in no hurry to watch all that again. |

Man, after reading Master Suho's review (nice review, btw), it struck me that maybe there are not that many Asylumites that actually read comics in their youth (or now, as the case may be). |

Heh, thanks WS. Yeah, it's true... I didn't get into comics until university, believe it or not. |

Most of the comics I had when I was younger was the Beano and Whizzer and Chips, terrible newspaper jokes and various happenings is about all I can remember in them, nothing about good vs evil and that kind of thing, no messages at all. |

Heehee! Same here for Beano and Whizzer and Chips, etc. I read a few Marvel and DC comics, but my favourite comic was actually 2000AD. I was never really an ardent comic fan - I certainly know more about them all now (thanks to an impulsive research spasm some time ago) than I ever did back then. |

Downloaded a rip and it ended just about where I got up and left the cinema, I guess I'll never know what lies in the coveted last few minutes :P |

TBH, I am more interested in the Actor chosen being able to pull off said role than what skin color they have. |

AS WH said it is certainly Ultimate Nick Fury, and besides who better to play a super hero character? An actor that resembles the character, or and actor that the character was based off for his look and style? It makes sense to me. |

Okay, but it still seems a bit of a crock to me (partly because the movie should have been 'Ultimate Iron Man' in this case). I can't see SLJ as the original Nick Fury, had no knowledge until today of Ultimate Nick Fury (which just seems flipping stupid to me), and must admit that I've grown sick and tired of seeing SLJ on TV every five minutes in one invariable SLJ-esque character or another. In fact, Virgin have a run of SLJ-fronted adverts for their service at the moment, aired on every darn ad-break, in which he does his usual 'yay, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I shall fear no evil, for I'm the biggest, baddest mo-fo in da valley' ranting crap... |

Okay, I can't wait to see Iron Man. But I will have to. No big deal. I'm glad to hear that Bobby did a good job. I don't agree with some of the CG they did, but that's me. |

You're probably right Michael, I think most of the hype has come from the astonishment that this Comic inspired Movie was actually a good one |

I agree. Had I gone into this knowing all the hype, I'm not sure how I would have felt. But I went into it with no expectations, so I ended up really enjoying it. |

Saw the movie last night. Thought it was quite good, but could have been better. Iron Man did have quite the assortment of toys that I would like to have; if they were real. I would recommend this movie to someone even if they have never read the comic book. |

The movie was extremely good and I enjoyed it thoroughly. But I have to say that for me the new Batman movies are better. |
