My daughter had me rolling...she suggested Howie Long!
Scott Miller Wrote:I'm torn; on the one hand, I thought Downey Jr. was great and the effects were top notch, but I didn't care much for the villians and it had several scenes I thought unsuitable for children(and come on, who do they think are going to see these movies). I'm not much of a fan of either Bridges or Paltrow and neither did much to alter my opinion. Ultimately, I'm glad I didn't pay full price for it, but it is decent.
I should also mention that Iron Man was never a favorite of mine.

BLASPHEMER!
Wapitikev Wrote:Seriously though, As I stated before, it is not Batman Begins good but I would say that it is Superman Returns good.

I thought that Batman Begins was good apart from the neck on the Batsuit.
I heard that Iron Man was either a standard superhero movie with a couple of good touches, or a decent movie with some stooopid superhero elements. Either way, reports are conclusively inconclusive.
Seems to be a 5/10 job (wait for DVD).

I thoroughly enjoyed Iron Man.
Hey, I like the idea of Josh Hartnett as Captain America...I'd expect someone with a little more muscle, though.
Wapitikev Wrote:He has a really square jaw. It would look just like the big square jaw from the comic books, sticking out of the mask.
Plus, he's young and can easily bulk-up...plus they can pad the muscles in the suit (remember those terrible fake muscles that they had for the Flash suit on the TV series? The ones they added to the bat-suit in the first few movies were much better).
In addition, if Steve Rogers ever needs to appear topless, they can do a 300-type CGI effect on him to make Josh look suitably ripped for a few seconds.
That should make the ladies happy.

Most of the ladies who might go see the Captain America movie would probably get me thrown in jail for looking at them twice...but yeah, I can see Hartnett as Cap.
Of course, they'll probably come up with someone nobody's ever heard of, who will knock our socks off...
It's like the JLA movie they're working on...lots of discussion over who'll play who.

Wapitikev Wrote:Apparently, Marvel wanted to make a sequel portraying Hulk as more of a hero and less of a mindless monster (more "Hulk Smash![the bad guy]" than [hulk grunts and smashes something]) . Plus, soon after the Hulk was made, Edward Norton was many fans choice as Banner in any future Hulk movie. So Norton got together with Marvel, helped write the movie and agreed to star in it.
So Marvel gets their sequel (in preparation for Avengers) and the fans get their Ed Norton fix.
And that, as they say, is that.
Personally, I was always a fan of the big green galoot, so I hope that this one does better than the last one.
