Holy shit! I invited my reluctant friends to go see this with me and it was a fucking blast. Best Marvel movie yet.
My favorite parts:
1.
2.
Since I didn't know anything about Iron Man before, I really enjoyed the movie.
My favorite parts:
1.
Tony Stark escapes from his kidnappers. I was laughing the entire time. The scene really built up the anticipation and much needed anger relief towards the terrorists.
2.
Iron Man goes to town with the terrorists. Throws a guy up the two story. Owns five terrorists at once. Grabs a guy through the wall. Pwns a tank.
Since I didn't know anything about Iron Man before, I really enjoyed the movie.

man, i thought it was a great movie (though it doesn't touch batman begins), but a piece of advice:
if you have an irregular heartbeat and it's acting up the night you decide to go see this movie
don't go
holy hell that was excruciating

May have been posted already but here goes:
Its been suggested that you can see Captain America's prototype shield on Tony's workbench. Also, the super soldier serum will be shown in The Incredible Hulk.

And that has what to do with what?
Do you have a 'magic zoom' button next to your 'make dumb posts in every comic movie related thread' button that shows the label showing what the shield is made of?

I would assume that it would have to do with the process needed for cutting adamantium and most likely a rarity issue.
I do not think the will use adamantium to be honest so as not to rub with the xmen and wolverine movies.

maybe adamantium is extremely rare and expensive. Or titanium is light enough to attain lift while adamantium would weigh too much (Wolverine is supposed to weigh ALOT for a guy his height)

It's been a while but if I recall correctly adamantium's useless for a body armor, not maleable enough I think, and Cap's shield is made from vibranium not adamantium and it's a very specific kind of alloy that hasn't been replicated yet.

Saw it last night with a friend. Really liked it. Robert Downey Jr. really nailed it.
Cap's shield has always been vibranium. Adamantium didn't even get invented until after they defrosted him and were trying to make another shield. Vibranium gets stronger the harder you hit it, as it absorbs all vibrations. Thor has cracked the shield before. It can be broken.
Adamantium is just indestructibe.

I went to see this yesterday. I know little of the Iron Man franchise and have never read the comics, but I thought it was fucking incredible. Downey Jr really delivered a good performance and I love how the movie took its time to build up. Comic relief also worked this time around, some funny moments.
Awesome. I actually wouldn't mind seeing it again right now after browsing the other thread and seeing the gifs.

Awesome movie. Was a little disappointed with the final fight but personally i didn't care cause the rest of the movie was very good. Hopefully the next one is just as good.

Do people really believe this shit is going to stick in the sequel?
You're either really unfamiliar with funnybooks or soft in the head.

I don't think it matters if it sticks or not. Him announcing it still breaks from the usual tradition, at least in film anyway. But then again, the way Marvel guys seem to always run around without their masks or helmets on seems to be a bit of a new trend.

I thought in the comics, everybody knew Tony Stark was Iron Man, and there was no secret behind it.

Or maybe Iron Man was the first comic book movie in fucking decades where the main character actually had some balls. The poster you were harping on here was happy that Tony Stark didn't follow the typical cliche in this movie. In THIS movie. What happens in the sequel happens in the sequel.
And if they decide to play up the "Is He, Isn't He?" angle in Iron Man 2, it'll be
Tony's Alcoholism because of what Stane pulled. Rhodes steps in as Iron Man. By the end of the film, Stark assumes the Iron Man mantle again, and Rhodes becomes War Machine

I went to see it yesterday. It wasn't bad, just bland and uninspired.

Just watched the movie earlier, and I have to say I really enjoyed it. Tony Stark was actually surprisingly funny and likable.
I normally hate superhero movies, but this one was incredibly fun to watch. I'll definitely buy it on Blu-ray when it comes out.

Well the last time Iron Man was getting major (season 2 of his cartoon was great and he had his own mini-universe with the addition of the War Machine and Force Works books), Marvel screwed him over with The Crossing crossover by making him evil, killing him and replacing him with a teenage version. WTF. So I'm fine with Iron Man being a minor hero if Marvel didn't throw him in anymore stupid crossovers. That said, I am enjoying his current role since it's still Tony Stark being Tony Stark. It's just that now the rest of the Marvel universe has to deal with him instead of only the Avengers. :lolfarnham said:
