[The Black Hand ®]

94% positive reviews on Rotten Tomatoes. I can't say I like the new design of their site...in fact...I hate it compared to the way it used to be,

89% now.

I said from the beginning that it was a smart move to cast Downey. He seems to be generating a lot of the positive buzz about the film.

Yeah , I bet the movie is most interesting , ecspecially to the general public.

 

While some complained here about the long origin stuff. That stuff is fascinating to those unfamiliar w/ how these super heroes evolved . That's what Spider man #1 was , ..remember ??

[The Black Hand ®]

I like those type of films with a story and a build up.

80% from the Top Critics (i.e. no fakes, studio shills, etc.) is not bad.

Just wanted to say I took Ellen to Burger King today so she could get a kids meal and an Iron Man Toy.(she saw a commercial on TV said we had to go!... I was so proud.

 

Was amazed to see how good the toys actually were and how many kids were having a blast with them.

 

Here is a link so you can pick out which one you want to come with your meal..

I see they're doing 8pm Thursday night showings along with the midnight show. Might have to go tomorrow night.

I'm taking my godson to see it Friday afternoon. I think this flick will appeal to all age groups, and should make a mint at the boxoffice.

[Iron Collector]

I really hope so. It will take a small fortune to break even, and I want to see an Iron Man 2.

94% on rottentomatoes now. Spider-man 2 was the highest rated super-hero movie at 93%. Can Ironman hold this rating? Is it going to be better than Spider-man 2?

I concur. I can't believe I agree with joe_collector on something. . .

I said from the beginning that it was a smart move to cast Downey. He seems to be generating a lot of the positive buzz about the film.

 

He will probably do an epic performance in a sequel as Tony Stark battling alcoholism, as in his real life.

I think the producers were forward thinking and he was specifically cast with that in mind.

Robert Downey and Jon Favreau were interviewed by Margaret Pomeranz on At the Movies, you guys might find it interesting.

 

The first part was the one run on the show last night (RD's take on "talent" is interesting):

There's also an extended web-only interview:

What's not to like about hard rock riffs and Iron Man toys?

 

Get better speakers JC.. (cue for JC to school me on the set up he has in his custom designed penthouse nerd lair)
