bobbba Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Nothing special imop, if you've seen hulk and transformers you're not going to be in for any suprises. effects wise and the story isn't anything to write home about. Just hope that this summers other films like dark knight aren't a let down like this one is.

H82LUZ Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Sound to me like they finally made Iron Man what it was supposed to be .Way back in 87-88 they made a live action IronMan movie on the heels of the batman movie,that movie sucked big time .I always liked IronMan comics and do remember the cartoons.

sanctified Veteran Posted May 6, 2008 Veteran Share Posted May 6, 2008 The Dark Night better be better! With a director that its light years better than the iron man one, with actors that are a lot lot better than the iron man ones, with a villian that its better than anything in the iron man movie and with a script that at least in paper seems more interesting I thik it will difficult for the Dark Knight to not be better. Not taking anything from Iron Man, it was a very comic-adaptation good movie :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/634584-iron-man-2008/page/3/#findComment-589377939 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev1n Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Speaking of villains Jeff Bridges was quite badass. He was a better villain without the suit actually. :laugh: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/634584-iron-man-2008/page/3/#findComment-589377942 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Quick question...anybody know the model of the monitor you see in Tony Stark's office...was going to try and find it myself but though i'd put a post up first!!! I'd hazard a guess at the Dell 2408WFP. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/634584-iron-man-2008/page/3/#findComment-589378373 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rappy Veteran Posted May 6, 2008 Veteran Share Posted May 6, 2008 yeah...Iron Man is a kick arse movie!!!!! The Dark Night better be better!

bob_loblaw Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 Just got back from it, what an awesome movie; really on par with Transformers, although I didn't get goosebumps as I did with Transformers. Quick question though, who's the guy with the eyepatch at the end of the credits? I'm completely ignorant to the Iron Man storyline.

Lqv2015 Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 I thought it was pretty good. It did felt like a summer boxoffice movie without being too serious unlike Batman Begins or Hulk. RDJ was great as usual. Loved that Stan Lee cameo. The laughs were nice but wasn't silly or over the top like Transformer. Transformer was an all in your face action movie with great CGI. But the story wasn't as slick as Iron Man. The technology in this movie was awesome. Stan Winston did a great job with the robots. I thought the final battle was weak & the movie could've used more action. Here's too 2010 which looks to be better than the first. 8/10 Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/634584-iron-man-2008/page/3/#findComment-589383472 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lqv2015 Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 You've seen it already!? :blink: Everyone knows the first of any comic book movie is to get the feel of the characters & hero. Once the origin of their story is told, the second is action packed. Like X2, Spidey 2, TDK & soon to be Superman 2.

MMaster23 Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 Hmm not so sure on all the 10/10s and 9/10s .. I'd give it a 8/10 ~ 8.5/10. The movie itself is ok, storyline way too linear (which is OK i guess .. but really .. its ABC .. nothing more, nothing less), characters ok/good, villians could be darker, special effects were great and there are a lot of subtle jokes in this one .. which I really like. LOVING the fire robot hahaha ... I would have liked it to have more of a twist in it. Also .. he flies all the way back, returning to the almost the same site (sure .. that country is HUUUUGE) and nearly killing the exact same guy (that underboss). I mean .. really... come on.... Beside all that .. it's a great movie .. big fat 8. Wouldn't give it a 9 or let alone a 10...

NienorGT Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 Saw it today... 92/100 !!! The CGI when they put the armor on Stark isn't perfect. It lack of IronMan fighting scenes. They should have made the movie longer and add some combats scenes.

Ultomato Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 8/10. Cool CGI but the story and villain wasn't too interesting. I liked spiderman 1 and 2 better.

Fish Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 As comic book-to-film movies go, I thought this was good, better then average. But I can honestly only give this 8/10 at the very most. I was never really into Iron Man, so I guess I can be a little more subjective..

Julius Caro Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 9/10 RDJ was cool, and I hope GP's character becomes more important in the next movie, her character was kinda 'weak' on this one (not her performance, her character!). Didn't like the 'final fight' that much. And I can't wait for the next one!!!!
