      Phenomenal film, and I couldn't help but think Downey had a striking resemblance to a cleaned up Mike Patton all through this movie...

        I saw this movie yesterday, man it was really good. I wasn't hyped up for it that much just because I'm not a huge Iron Man fan, but wow the movie was great. Definitely one of the best that Marvel has put out. I liked this one just as much as the first couple Spidey's and X-Men.

          I just went and saw this again for the 2nd time last night, and T.Howard didn't seem as Pussified this time. The place was still packed and I enjoyed it more this time as I had time to soak a lot of the little things I missed the first time, up. I stayed throughout the whole credits also....as well as most of the drive-in ( really fun way to see this move)

            Yeah, I looked up Iron Man's history on wiki. I know they change things for the movies. But it still was silly to me. It just didn't fit. They may have attempted to make the climax more of a personal grudge match, but what they already had on the table was sufficient enough to me. Adding that extra twist made it too much like a soap opera. Just unnecessary.

                  I might go see it again myself... I went to see it yesterday while my wife took the boys to see Speed Racer. The movies started 15 minutes apart, so while I was watching the last scenes of Iron Man, my wife and kids come in. So I was a little distracted; I'd have preferred she waited outside with them. Then I dipped during the credits, forgetting to stick around to see what everyone was talking about.

                  Funny thing, the theatre by my house was virtually empty; probably because of the 1:00 start. Still, I thought I'd have to see a bunch of people.

                    Good action and special effects but the movie felt long. They could have trimmed 5-10 minutes to make it tighter.

                    I was surprised to see Shaft in the film

                      I just watched it today (I was out of town this weekend and was incredibly busy the week prior)...This was a great comic book movie, I like how they've set up the characters and think this could be a great franchise. I'm really glad I saw this, best comic movie in a while.

                        Just got back from finally getting to see this. Very very good comic movie. Little light on action but the pacing and character development was spot on.

                        Looking forward to this one making it's way to high definition.
