I put this about on the same level as #2. It was overall good, but it had some fairly severe problems and disappointments.

Just watched it with my son. We really enjoyed it. Alot better than 2, maybe better than 1. It's funny, it was basically an Iron Man film grafted onto the Shane Black formula. With a few revisions, this could have been another Lethal Weapon flick. A lot of scenes and dialogue were pure Shane Black. I like how the entire middle act with the kid was basically kept hidden from the trailers.

Yep, pretty much agree with all that. The Etremis soldiers were pretty badass. I liked them a lot.

Fun as hell but definitely not the best Iron Man. I know Black's work, but the direction just seemed kind of all over the place. Still a fun movie to see, and it is further proof that there can never be another actor that plays Tony Stark. RDJ is the only person that has the right kind of dickishness and charisma that this part demands.

I think James Franco could be an intriguing choice.... haven't thought too much that one just kinda popped off the top of my head.

I'm honestly not sure if anyone can nail it like RDJ did? It would be like replacing Harrison Ford as Indiana Jones.

After the stinger, it read on the screen, "Tony Stark will return."

Random Question. RDJ. Better Holmes, or better Tony Stark?

His Holmes is good...but not the best Holmes ever. I do not see anyone who could play Tony Stark better than him. RDJ was born to be Tony Stark.

It was really good. I like the curveball on Mandarin. They can come back to it later. As a comic movie it might be better then im1 and close to avengers. I like to pretend im2 did not happen.
As for tdk setting precedent. It did not. It is not a comic movie. While amazing movies they are rebranded james bond/jason bourne movies. Not comic movies. |
