Iron Man

Awesome movie! Me and my mates are planning to build the suit tomorrow. If he can do it in a cave in Afganistan, we can do it too! :D
 
Saw it, loved it. And.......

Motherfuckin' Nick Fury!!!!!!!
 
It earned over $200.000.000 during its opening weekend worldwide, not bad...
$100.7 million, but that's still a fuckton. The movie cost $130m to make, so that right there just about covers the costs. Not bad.

In its opening weekend, Iron Man grossed an estimated $100.7 million in 4,105 theaters in the United States and Canada, ranking #1 at the box office[73], [74], making it the tenth biggest opening of all time[75], and making it the highest grossing opening weekend of 2008. It grossed $32.5 million on its first day, making it the 14th biggest opening day of all time.[76] Iron Man had the second-best premiere ever for a nonsequel, coming behind Spider-Man. It had the 10th biggest opening of all time and 4th biggest opening for a superhero movie.[77]

As of May 4, 2008, Iron Man has grossed an estimated $201 million worldwide ? $104.2 million in the United States and Canada and $96.7 million[78] in 57 other countries.[77]
 
I need to learn to read.
 
From the trailers I've seen, there's a lot of scifi shit going on + lots of explosions + lots of good, old rock music

This may be awesome to the degree of that one starwars rock concert picture
 
Is Black Sabbath's Iron Man (one of my favourites) in it - don't think it would quite fit?

Did anyone watch Iron Man director Jon Favreau's excellent interview program "Dinner for five" when it was on? I highly recommend it, Jon and 4 friends sit around a dinner table discussing the movie business and stuff in general, good stuff!

The first season can be found in the usual place...

The movie was fun, but the start was kind of racist in an amusing sort of way.
 
arvel Studios Sets Four More Release Dates!
Source: Marvel Entertainment
May 5, 2008


Marvel Entertainment released their first quarter report to its shareholders this morning to coincide with the announcement about the success this past weekend of Marvel Studios' first production Iron Man, which grossed an estimated $104.2 million domestically and over $201 million worldwide. The announcement included an update of Marvel Studios' feature film slate with the already-rumored Iron Man 2 announced for a release on April 30, 2010, followed by three more movies for the summers of '10 and '11. Matthew Vaughn's Thor is set for a release on June 4, 2010, and The First Avenger: Captain America (the working title) will kick off the summer of 2011 on May 6, followed by the highly-anticipated and foreshadowed The Avengers scheduled for July 2011. (Edgar Wright's Ant-Man is also listed as being in development with no release date set.)

In a conference call this morning, Marvel Studios' David Maisel said that Iron Man 2 will be used to introduce Thor. Regarding more "Hulk" movies, Maisel said "We definitely plan on continuing." He added that development continues on Spider-Man 4. "I can't give any other updates other than to say it's in development and everybody's excited about 'Spider-Man 4,'" he said.

With that in mind, one can start expecting a lot more announcements in the coming months about creative teams and casting for those movies including who might direct the Captain America and Avengers movies. (Whomever plays Steve Rogers AKA Captain America presumably will be making two movies at once.)
 
Sorry for the off topic, but don't you think that Bruce Willis would be PERFECT for Captain America?

Anyway I heard Iron Man was awesome and I'm going to see it very soon! :D
 
Really good movie! A bit of an LG/Audi commercial, but I didn't really mind.
