So will the directors of Ironman and The Incredible Hulk colloborate on the sequel to make an Avengers movie? Also does anyone know if Sam Jackson will being making an appearance with Edward Norton after the credits? Edited by Oxuyoska
Some people are claiming that this movie its on par with Batman Beigns. its really THAT good? :o

I don't think it's that well done when it comes to character development and such, but as superhero movies goes it's definitely that good overall.

Great movie and best superhero movie since Batman Begins. The acting is top-notch, especially Downey Jr, Iron Man himself.

The action scenes and special effects put Spider-man to shame.

The score is somewhat forgettable, but competent.

Looking forward to the sequel.

9/10.

P.S.: Stay after the credits, you won't be disapointed.

it wasn't the best movie... nor was it as good as transformers, so people need to stop saying that.. but it was a good set up for the next movie

8/10

Im pretty sure that since this is a more or less 'free' forum that people can keep saying what they want. I think it was better than Transformers, and I give it a 15/10 I am easily amused, and I loved it.

The movie was good but nothing awesome. Robert downey was expectedly great, the CGI was great, but it lacked action, which it does not compensate with its so-called characterizations. It feels like a 100% summer blockbuster movie, which isnt something I 100% expected reading some of the reviews, it is no where near as different as batman begins or ang lee's hulk.

however like most comic book movies, it sets up nicely for a sequel.

I will settle for 7/10. 7.5 tops.

I saw it and my only perk with it is that it was maybe 30 minutes too long (take some scene here and there, which were boring, and you have the 30 minutes).

The special effects were awesome, specially the part with the jets and Ironman flying.

Overall I liked it very much, can't wait until its released on BluRay.

Amazing movie, loved it. Wish there was more action instead of just at the end but being the first ina series I can understand why. RDJ was THE MAN without him it would have sucked. Now we will see if I can wait until blu ray to watch again for it I will go back to the theaters. My money is on the 2nd choice.

really no different than ang lee's hulk? ouch and you gave that movie a 7/10...

Seen the movie last night and I have to say it was very good. I few parts of the movie had me laughing like the " tests "

I would rate the movie a 8.0 on 10. The end left me in a state of WTF but in the end I guess it sets up for a second movie.

Over all I really enjoyed it.

really no different than ang lee's hulk? ouch and you gave that movie a 7/10...

Batman Begins and Ang Lee's Hulk are both different from the usual superhero movies. These two were ambitious and cater more towards their characters and exposition rather than just action and humour. While Begins is the better film, Hulk was still pretty damn good. I for one thought the CGI looked great for its time. I'm not saying Iron Man is bad, just that reading some of the reviews, I thought it would be a slightly more ambitious take on the genre. It's of course still good and very fun, but then you can't deny, for the type of film that it is, it lacked action can you?

I personally thought Hulk was horribly done while I loved Batman Begins. And I'd certainly place Iron Man in the second spot (with Batman Begins at the first) even though it wasn't quite in the same vein as Batman Begins because it was just so well done for what it wanted to do.

heh... we're all entitled to own opinion, so mine's the following:

tons better than transformers. transformers imo was actually crap, grossly overrated and actually annoyed me because of its inconsistency.

iron man is awesome. probably the best movie i have seen so far this year. and i agree, definitely better than all the comic to movie adaptation i have ever seen.

can't wait for the next one (2010... booo! come out sooner!), and i would imagine war machine would be in it? that would be AWESOME^GOOGLE.

    • Snap Inc. launches new SPECS augmented reality glasses (for 'just' $2,195) by Aditya Tiwari Image: Snap Inc. Smartglasses powered by augmented reality are the latest fashion because the smartphone market is slowly reaching saturation. Snap Inc. announced its latest AR-powered smartglasses, called SPECS, that aim to strike a middle ground between underpowered AI glasses and heavy headsets you can't wear all the time. Available in two sizes, Snap SPECS are made from high-performance Swiss TR90 polymer and feature removable inserts to support prescription lenses. Its 47mm model weighs about 132g; the bigger 52mm model weighs 136g. Snap Inc has been spreading the word about the new glasses for a while now. Earlier this year, it even spun off its smart glasses team into a subsidiary called Specs Inc. Its proprietary LCOS (Liquid Crystal on Silicon) display delivers a 51-degree field of view and 16 million colors. Snap says the device gives the feel of a 24-inch desktop monitor when you're working, and of a 115-inch home cinema screen placed about 10 feet away when watching a movie. A pair of custom stereo speakers and 6x high-SNR MEMS microphones are built into the temples of the smartglasses to deliver open-ear audio while you cast a screen, stream content, open a whiteboard, or collaborate with others. Snap Inc. patted itself on the back, saying the smartglasses don't need tethering or a puck to connect to a computer. Under the hood, SPECS draw its power from two Snapdragon processors: one for computer vision and another for running Lenses. The device supports fast hand tracking, low latency, and responsive interactions that help digital content feel anchored in the real world, according to the company, which claims that SPECS can "deliver 7-millisecond motion-to-photon latency." The smartglasses offer up to four hours of battery life on a single charge while providing AI assistance, Bluetooth notifications, Lenses, audio/video playback, and more. The battery life could jump to 20 hours of mixed use when the charging case is included. Image: Snap Inc. You can view and interact with AR Lenses anchored directly to the physical world around you, and an on-board AI assistant uses the camera to see what's around to answer questions or provide real-time help with tasks. Snap Inc. noted that it filed more than 7,000 patents during the development of SPECS. It's trying to build the required digital ecosystem around the smartglasses, and said that developers have already published hundreds of Lenses for SPECS. Moreover, their electrochromic lenses use the same technology available in Boeing 787 Dreamliner windows, enabling them to shift from clear to tinted in just 10 seconds when you walk out of your house. Snap SPECS are now available for pre-order on the official website with a $2,195 price tag ($200 refundable deposit). The smartglasses are expected to ship in the US, UK, and France during the Fall this year.
    • Sound Booster 1.13 Build 575 by Razvan Serea Increase volume on your laptop. Boost the volume of even very quiet speakers. Raise volume above maximum. Letasoft Sound Booster can be used as an extra amplifier when the volume of the program you are listening to is too low for comfortable listening and you feel that your PC’s speakers can produce a louder sound. This can be the case when the audio or video has been recorded at the level below normal. Or, for example, when the other person’s microphone you are talking to on Skype, is not working properly. There can be a plenty of other reasons why the sound is being too quiet and there is not much you can do about it except buy external speakers. Sound of any application that is being played in the system can be amplified up to 500%. Letasoft Sound Booster can raise volume of programs like web browsers, on-line communication software (Teams, Discord, Zoom), any kind of media player or games. Simply put, volume of virtually any program that can play any sound in PC, can be boosted to a comfortable level with Letasoft Sound Booster. You can control current volume with the pop-up slider from the system tray. Alternatively, you can assign system-wide hot keys for increasing and decreasing, and use them when you need to adjust volume Letasoft Sound Booster constantly monitors current gain level and prevents samples from clipping, thus reducing all major sound distortions.

    • I own these and the normal QuietComfort ones from Bose. The QC are amazing and I want to love these, but for the life of me, I have a terrible time getting them attached to my ears.
