Agreed. I actually like Cumberbatch as Holmes better (although disgusted at the thought of his role in ST12). RDJ is Tony Stark, and no one else can pull it off.

He's supposedly awesome in Trek Into Darkness. Which isn't a surprise, he's been awesome in everything else he's done.

the trailers said in the voice over voice

"THIS IS THE BEST IRON MAN, EVER"

so does it suck ass or what?

James Franco is ****ing awesome

This Iron Man was slightly better than 2...i'll admit i enjoyed it but it wasn't anything like the trailers made it seem.

Well then there would be no surprise if the trailers gave away the whole plot line.
But, it is at least much better than 2.

What a disappointment of a movie.


There's no way Kingsley was satisfied with his character's development unless he was just taking a paycheck.

I liked the movie, didnt really like the curve ball. Mainly because Kingsley played the perfect creepy villian, well until the middle of the movie came. Alot less corny than iron man 2, just a step under iron man 1 imo

It was a step under everything. The more I think about this movie, the more I hate it. Even if they hadn't they still would have to answer for

The more I think about this flick, the more I like it. But I can see why some of you didn't like it. Marvel definatley did a bait and switch with the trailers and marketing.

No shit.
Well thats totally different than the comics.
I heard they ****ed up the Mandarin character too.

Basically this flick is an 80s/90s Shane Black action film, with Iron Man grafted on.

It could have been Lethal Weapon 5 or Last Boy Scout 2 with a few rewrites.

I really enjoyed it. There were some problems, but overall, I liked it. Definitely worth seeing, even if you don't like what's going on with the Mandarin character.



As for the Extremis...



My buddy thought it ripped off Batman pretty hard. He was kind of disappointed.



My question is whether they will continue adventures of Iron Man.





I'm kind of hoping they do. Yeah, I know he'll be back for Avengers, but I'm kind of hoping they keep making IM movies. I know the 3 story arc is clean and nice and works well. But they've done a nice job of not making it too reeruned. And as long as they don't get too over-sweeping and huge enemies, I think they can do some decent movies yet. Marvel has earned enough credit to let them try another.

As to RDJ as Stark, I think they need to leave it alone, if RDJ can't do it anymore, they need to leave it alone. RDJ is it.

Didn't Favre not direct this one due to differences with Marvel? I dont remember if he directed Iron Man 2 or not.

Iron Man 1 easily the best and Avengers is up there with it as far as iron man movies
