I dragged my fiancee Rachel to see Ironman tonight. I really enjoyed it and was pleasantly surprised when she said the same when we left. Has anyone else made it out to see it yet? What did you think?

Cheers and Beers
Cory

My son and I thought it rocked...

Had the humour, special effects... there wasn't quite enough ass-kickery in it, but still very cool for the first movie.

I hope you stayed for the part after the credits. The crowd went nuts when SLJ turned around.

Cheers! ~ Paul.

Enjoyed it the wife liked it too which is always a plus she was mad we had to stay until after the credits just to see a 5 second thing but I thought that was so cool!

i thought it was great. beside spiderman 1 and maybe x-men 1 and 2, it was the best comic book movie of all time. well i forgot the crow. i was giving this movie a hard time as i dont think whats his name was going to make a good stark, but i was totally wrong.

It was awesome. Robert Downey Jr. has the life experiences to give the role of Tony Stark a realism other actors couldn't. He did great. Let's hope his sucess doesn't wind him back up in rehab.

As for the end....well, I Love SLJ, but at the risk of being accused of sounding racist, I think they needed that characer to be player by a cauasian. But who knows...let's wait and see....

I loved Iron Man, I though RD jr was great. Frank, I think the reason they went with SLJ for the end is he is the inspiration for the character in the Marvel Ultimate universe and was featured in the Ultimate Avengers DVD's. Personally I would have like to have seen the classic version of the character with IMO Kurt Russell in the role.

I was kind of nervous of taking my wife to see IronMan... my previous choice, Jumper, was a deception for both of us... But, I'm glad we saw it, she loved the movie, I'm not an IronMan fan myself, just remember seeing the old cartoon when I was a kid, where the enemy was the Chinese army.

I think they made the right choices... it had a good blend of action, technology, good actors, nice effects and that "cool" factor.

Also, Stan Lee's cameo was one of the best I've seen!

Absolutely! I think it is a good film, it can create interest in non comic fan people for itself, and will please A LOT Ironman fans, as it is the most faithfull adaptation I've seen.

I love it. My girlfriend too. She wanted us to see The Black List but I won the lucky toss.

RD Jr. performance is awesome. What a hell of an actor. Jeff Bridges rocks too. My favorite part when Tony tested the shoes propulsors the first time.

Agent Viper go and watch it.
