Iron Man

http://www.apple.com/trailers/paramount/ironman/

Looks entertaining but who knows

Robert Downey Jr. has great potential in playing Tony Stark, a womanizing alcohol. I look forward to this one, but fear they'll make it craptastic like Fantastic 4.

I look forward to seeing this.

I can't tell if you're agreeing or being sarcastic... personally, I think he's a great actor, although highly underrated.

Edit: Checked your profile; RDJ is one of yuor favorites too.

Downey has been doing the greatest work of his career lately. I have high hopes.

Yeah he has, he did a killer performance in "Kiss, Kiss, Bang, Bang" I thought.

Besides, think of who it could have been... both Nick Cage and Tom "Jumping Monkey" Cruise were initially interested/in talks for the role. Either would be guaranteed shit for this role.

From what I've seen Iron Man has a lot of potential. Robert Downey, jr, I think was the correct for Tony Stark.

Edit: Checked your profile; RDJ is one of yuor favorites too. He is the man, After watching him in Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, i went back and watched some of his older movies, He really is a great actor, and hes only getting better.

Bullseye. It looks pretty cool but at the same time I too got a Fantastic Four vibe (especially when he is flying).

Looks great.

who's gonna be the evil guys in the movie

christian bale is taken, Downey is the man

The part that got me the most excited was the "I am Ironman" at the end.

Without even watching the trailet for the first time, I knew that I would hear Black Sabbath.

This looks pretty cool. I, too, got kind've a Fantastic Four vibe.

I bet money that Mandarin will have a part in this. Sam L. Jackson as Nick Fury? I like the fact that the film is going the direction of the Ultimate Universe.

It's gonna suck. Sorry. But, this clearly has a "FF" vibe to it. And we all know how that went...

The armour looks great though.

I thibk its going to be The Mandarin.

I think the main villain will be Iron Monger..

The director Jon Favreau said Mandarin's presence would be felt, but probably not be seen.

This looks good though.. I will be seeing it for sure.

Although, Cliche'.

Just saw the trailer for a second time on TV and I actually got a chill up the posteriolateral side of my neck at the "I am Ironman" part again and I'm not even a fan of Ironman.

I think it's just for the movie itself........Ironman history aside......b/c I don't now it.

I truly believe that the ending could have went, "I am Ironing" and I would have still gotten excited.



Nahhh.

The FF movies "went" splendidly. They made a shitload of money and two more movies are slated for production. If you didt like the FF movies, then that's your opinion. Personally, I liked them. Liked, not loved.

No matter how good YOU think it was and no matter how much MONEY it brought in at the box office, it's still YOU'RE OPINION that it was good.

Probably the first time I havnt seen him put " Anata wa wakarimasu ka..... "

I'm very very skeptical about this film. I really like Robert Downey Jr. but Marvel has been known to make a bunch of comic films that aren't up to par. Of course this is subjective, but I'm sure a lot of us would agree on some of the bad Marvel movies (Ghost Rider, Blade Trinity).

I'll obviously wait until I see the film to judge it, but let's just say I'm nervous.

I believe The Iron Monger and may be hints of The Mandarin are the bad guys in this. However I look forward to seeing this and other comic book movies next summer.

Qapla!.

I'm most likely going to see it, but i dont know if i'll be pleased...

i agree, but i didnt mind hey man nice shot by filter. I appreciate some good rock in comic movie trailer, but Iron man was a bit to obvious.

Well... why WOULDN'T they put the song...

May be obvious but i thought it was awesome

Who the **** cares they used Black Sabbath's "Iron Man" in the preview? It's just a gimmick; it fit well.

I'm pretty sure Ozzy himself has confirmed that "Iron Man" is based off the character Iron Man.

I'm pretty sure the villain is Iron Monger, played by Jeff Bridges

That's a huge plus... Bridges is a top-notch actor.

Do you think the movie is going to be cool?

i saw the full trailer for the first time on the big screen when i saw hitman, and from what i gather, it will kick all sorts of assage!

Please search the forums before making new theads.

Nice one.


Not many people I know realize that a league is a measurement of length, and not depth.

Iron Man, in my opinion, will be good, but, as you said, The Dark Knight will pwnt.

I think that this is the largest project that Robert Downey Jr ever had.

New Pic of Iron Man...


http://www.comics2film.com/g/displayimage.php?pos=-1156

I watched some new trailers at Appletrailers.com and this looks to be not bad at all. Maybe Downey can pull it off after all.

He's playing an drunkard playboy, Downey can pull that off without even trying.

Actually, I'm a little more psyched for this than Dark Knight. My main reason for seeing Dark Knight will be the Joker. My main reason for Iron Man is virtually everything about the film.

Yeah I think Iron Man will be more exciting, but if i had a choice of just seeing one, I would go see Dark Knight .

Pix from Iron Man...

http://www.movieweb.com/news/15/27615.php

Looks great. He's got this role so perfectly he so better pull it off.

Isn't Iron Monger going to be the central villain?

Si.

Having seen all of the trailers, I bet Tony Stark becomes the most popular movie hero of the summer. He pretty much combines everything that's cool: money, women, smarts, a flying suit with rockets. He's basically Bruce Wayne with a sense of humor.

I saw a promo on MTV for a "Be Tony Stark" for a day contest. Minus the kidnapping and metal fragment lodged in Stark's chest, that'd be freakin' sweet.

I agree with everything you say.At first I was dreading this movie to be released because hollywood its seems,always finds ways to screw up marvel comic book films in major big ways -a rare exception being Fantastic four 2 -an amazing surpise to me since the first was so horrible,but this one looks to be another one of those rare exceptions of a t marvel comicbook character being made into a great movie that they have done a good job with.From the trailers,it looks awesome which is usually a good sign.I cant believe im saying this because of marvels history of comic to movie films, but Im excited about THIS one.cant wait.

Fantastic Four 2 was one of the single biggest deviations from the comic of ANY Marvel movie adaptation, Parker.

I say that as someone who has followed the comics since he was 8.

No kidding. FF2 was one amazing pile of crap.

Looking forward to Iron Man though. I enjoy Downey Jr. thoroughly.

I never enjoyed the character or the comics, but I think it will work well as a movie.

-AC Me neither. I liked the Heroes Reborn take on him, but I never really got into much Marvel after my 12th birthday. Though, recently I am reading some again, namely Moon Knight and Punisher Max. I think it will still be an enjoyable film, much in the same way that Hulk wasn't.

well it had a some exciting moments in it.I guess I liked it mainly because of that and also since it was much better than the first one which I totally hated to the extremes. I honestly thought I would hate FF2 just as much since the first one was so horrible but i looked at the reviews and they pretty much said the same as I did that it was much better than the first.
For the first time ever here,I actually agree with the long over due banned A.C.LOL.I never liked the comic either but think it will work in the movies as well.

Iron Man looks better and better with each new tidbit that I see.

WTF? Toby's moves were at least humorous, in fact his dancing like John Travolta after he gets the suit was the highlight of the movie. His dancing in the night club was retarded, but still comical.

What Richards did in FF2 was just retarded.

David Koepp who did the script for the first one and Alvin Sargent for the second one so take all your hate on those 2 nstead of sam raimi which you've been doing for the last couple of years.

Obadiah Stane/Iron Monger should make a great villain. In a few more days, can't wait to see this with my nephew.

Should be some great fight scenes between the two

According to some reviews, it's the best superhero film since "Batman Begins"!

Just got back from watching it.

I'm pretty surprised that it turned out to be so great.

Of course I was hoping, but I never expect too much of a superhero movie, but I think this must be the best one I've seen after Batman Begins.

also on iron man i've seen alot of good reviews, The latest empire magazine 4/5 stars and todays paper 4/5 and on the the AUS empire forums which i'm on alot of people give it the same rating and i've read Robert downey jr is good as tony stark.

If you want very hard reviews on movies go to rottentomatoes.com
At times that's a more reliable source then others.

Just got back.

Might as well not have said Downey Jr's name on the poster, it should have said "Tony Stark as Tony Stark.". Arguably the greatest comic to movie capture of a character, ever.

I loved this film. I thought nothing was overdone unless it needed to be, everything was believeable, they never stretched the suspense of belief beyond reasonable lengths often, but when they did, it worked.

Probably my favourite Marvel movie so far.

It appears Iron Man did deliver...and I guess Marvel finally got it right.

However, this still doesn't excuse the garbage movies from the past. It does prove that they're moving in the right direction.

Well done.

The same people don't make all the movies, so it's slightly unfair to have low hopes for Iron Man just because Fantastic Four was shit.

-AC

Iron Man is getting rather mighty good reviews from what I have read of the movie. What's Paltrow like in it?, I can't stand her and she is the only negative for me with the movie.

FF wasn't the only shit. I have a list of them.

The same rationale still applies, really.

Mild: She's alright. She does what she does, you know? What I truly loved is the fact that they didn't cop out and have ultra romance. There's more or less no romance. It's hinted at, but even then it's proposed as not being definite. She actually seems like more than the wimpy damsel, which I can say is a plus.

Bridges was amazing as Stane, even if they altered the history a bit. All points go to Downey Jr, though. What a performance.

I still think they should wait until the third for War Machine, because Iron Man is the star, and having two of them is just...null. Well, I won't put it past Jon Favreau to make it work, not now. It'll just seem disproportioned; War Machine AND Iron Man...against The Mandarin?

-AC

Cant wait to see this movie, especially with the positive reviews I keep hearing

Wow..I just checked rottentomatoes. Ironman got a 7.5 which is high praise coming from that site. I'm actually interested in seeing it now.

I completely agree.

I had my doubts about this movie, but it sure does deliver, Robert Downey Jr. is excellent and spot on as Stark, just as the rest of the cast, though it wouldn't be and overstatement to say Downey overshadows them.

the FX, superb... reminded me a lot of transformer (the suit and all) and I thought the movie flow very well (unlike the first british review I read, which said things moved fast) though I thought it was a bit too long...

love the ending, but since I saw it yesterday, didn't know about the "Scene" after the credits that I was looking forward to (I'm not much of a fan of Iron Man, but I'm big fun of "this" guy), will have to see it again to check it out...

But yeah your right on that,thats 100% true,thats STILL no excuse for their garbage movies made in the past. I was elated to see that they cast jeff Bridges in this movie.Im a big fan of his,he's a really good actor.

damn straight.

you can blame the directors for the horrible casting choices they make like an older actor that played johnny storm than whoever the girl was that played sue storm who you can tell is younger than the actor that played johnny storm,or the casting choice of whats her name for sue storm since she did not look the part at all.but as far as the films themselves,if they are horribly written, which most of them usually are,well you cant blame the directors for that,thats the screenwriters fault. People always seem to get the wrong idea about you Dwarf that you hate marvel comicbook characters just because hollywood screwed up their MOVIES and betrayed their character like they have with most of them. they dont get it that you love their characters they created,just that hollywood has screwed up their MOVIES on them most the time.

but thats kinda your fault dwarf because I never see you bash the burton/schumacher batman movies which deserve to be bashed since as we have talked about before,Batman Begins is the one and ONLY true batman movie that shouldnt be burned.so lets see some DC bashing of THOSE films from you Dwarf.

He didn't say you can't critique them, he didn't even say you can't attack them, he simply said you DON'T HAVE to attack them, there's a big difference. I think attacking people for making a poor movie is ridiculous and sad.

A little more reading, a little less knee-jerk.

That said, at least you don't have eight year long personal vendettas against movies or companies...like some.

You don't know me too well AC.

I haven't read Marvel comics since 1995.

Well, actually not true. I did read Marvel Knights and just kept updated on events.

Why? That's not personal, they didn't kill a family member.

They stopped making comics you enjoyed so you stopped reading. Why is that anything to get personal over? Sadness.

I was more referring to the actions of promoting your sheer, gut-churning hatred for a single movie for the stupidest reasons, like someone who posted in this thread.

You guys have no right to attack WD!!!!! because he voiced his opinion, he wasn't attacking them.


He has every right to say the past Marvel movies sucked and currently they are moving into the right direction. It's WD's hard earned cash he used on those movie tickets/rental and it's his opinion to say the past movies did suck.



I agree with him because I used my money to watch those shitty Marvel films also.

I'm a consumer and pay for this stuff. I'm entitled to my critique.

So take that!

Yes, but it gains you nothing, except for the exact same thing that AC gains in defending them.

Also, notice how I didn't say you "can't" attack them, but that you don't have to.

Actually, I thought anyone could say anything they wanted here. Why is someone's opinion being attacked? Just curious.

You're the idiot and not me.

They kill the fan in me. That's a crime in my book. They didn't stop making the comics I like. They stop making sense. You do know there is a difference between a fan and a fanatic, right? If not, I'll explain it to you.

A fan can be critical, observant, and known the character much longer than the writers even possibly the creator.

A fanatic (or in other terms "fanboy) is an idiot with no common sense that sucks up EVERYTHING and have no common sense or even a critical point of view. That's sadness.

In conclusion....an a very arrogant and demanding geek. Counter argue that...

I gain support by other fans who happen to agree with me. So.... Nah-nah-nah! In yo face!
