Iron Boy, Iron Kid? Cheapass Marvel? WTF?

[joe_collector]

I was turning the channels looking for something to watch with the kids, and we hit a show called "Iron Man", and what a POS that was.

 

The 3D animation looked like something I'd do on my home PC, and was even worse than that old MTV Spider-man series when 3D was still in its infancy. No depth, no real movement, and it looks absolutely horrible. And the writing sucks just as bad, and my two kids were openly laughing at how bad it was, and telling me to make up dialogue for it.

 

And in addition to the dollar store production values, why is it even called Iron Man? It has some kid in the lead, so shouldn't it be Iron Boy?

I think its called the Adventures of Cal-Bot.

Yeah, funny I ran across that too this evening.

 

The title of your thread pretty much sums it up.

Yeah, they gave away the first episode on Itunes for free.

 

"Please, someone watch us!!"

Wow..., did they insult all the sponsors..., the watchers..., or all of the above? :shrug:

[piper]

Yep, it sucks. Fortunately the new X-Men and Spider-man series have been pretty good.

That show's a joke. What a dissapoinment for all the new Iron Man fans out there.
