I bought it yesterday. It was my first time seeing the film. It was a very good watch, but I felt that the action was severely lacking. The final battle with Iron Monger was all too short and left me yearning for more. Maybe the sequel will be teeming with action......
Oh, and I noticed that John Favreau gave himself a cameo part as Stark's driver. Cute.
I shan't be buying another copy. Double dips will be coming. Hide and watch.
Well I've just ordered the Iron Man dvd case in the shape of the Iron Man mask on region 3. I've read a few reviews saying it's a bit cheap looking but it's interesting for a dvd box. So ordered it, yay. So can't wait to see the film. It comes in a plastic see through box, so can always keep it in that for protection.
I believe in America, you can get a mask box edition in this shop called Target. Anyone know?
I don't mind now, I pre-ordered it instead for £10 cheaper, yay. The one I was going to order was £24.99!! but found it cheaper, just have to wait till the end of the month when it's released here in Mask form in the UK
The steelbook is a nice looking edition too. I would get whoever is buying it as a present for you, to pre order it, not wait till near that time to buy it because it's limited edition apparently, so will be hard to find in the future.
T.M - I'm quite happy with the mask box, it's quite delicate and could be stronger, but it's obviously much nicer than a normal dvd plain plastic box, it's a lovely addition to a collection, and it's easy to open. Some reviews said they had a problem opening up the mask... none at all for me.
That's cool.. I am still kind of half way between buying it and not. If it was steel I would get it right away. I had the steelbook edition on saturday and that is really nice with the close up of the mask and the raised Ironman going down the side.
My mom got the single disc edition in the mail today. We'll probably watch it on the weekend, which will be her very first time seeing the movie.

The cover looks amazing. After I save a few bucks I'm going to get this DVD. The movie was pretty good. My favorite part is when he gets back to the us and all he wants is an American burger. lol
