Just Saw Iron Man "Spoilers Thread"

[Darth Cruel]

The scene after the Credits was Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) asking Tony if he knows about the Avengers Initiative This could be a lead on too a whole new film franchise???

Actually, he didn't ask him if he new about it. He said he wanted to tell him about it (a ridiculously anal point, I know). And I think that, since SLJ and RD Jr (as Iron Man) are supposed to be in "The Hulk" (I would bet at the end like this one), I am already sure they are working intentionally toward "The Avengers".

And this makes me wonder if we are going to get a "Sub-Mariner" movie.

Loved it. They also had the Iron Man Suit RDJ wore in the Film displayed in the lobby. And the Tony Stark Audi in the courtyard.

I'll try to post a pic of the suit later..

Faverau is already championing trying to get himself tied to the Avengers films, I've read somewhere. I have to say that one of the best parts of the film was seeing Nick Fury because it finally takes a Comic Book movie and ties it to others, I loved how NF said "Do you think you're the only superhero around?"

Avengers...with HULK

 

[pjam]

Please do!

According to an article that I just read in Wikipedia...The movies that are being done and tied together to the Avengers movie are Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, and Hulk.

Should be a good line-up for Avengers. Some of the most dynamic Avengers, but not too many so that any get cheated out of screen time.

Edit - Wikipedia quoted a report issued to the stock market. And the Iron Man director who was told by Marvel that the actors who do the characters in the individual movies have to do them for Avengers...or no Avengers.

i'm surprised nick fury wasn't mentioned as a stand alone movie being that they've already cast samuel l.

BEST MARVEL FILM YET!!!!

Loved it. Everything about the movie kicked ass. RDJ played Tony Stark perfectly, and I really liked every suit in the film. Well done

Looks like I'm going to have to see the movie again at the Arclight.

Got to say I loved it, and Iron Man has never really been on my comic book radar. I put it down mostly to RDJ - like Pirates of the Caribbean - the entire film hinges on the lead actor and without him would be a far lessor endeavor.

The worries I had about the CG looking like a video game were also not a problem as there wasn't a moment where I could definitely say "that's not the real suit."

Anyone think about how truly little we see of the suit? But it's not really missed - the development of the suits is all about the character of Stark.

It was great seeing SLJ at the end, but I don't know about tying them all together in an Avengers movie. We still have the Thor and Cap movie to get out (and Ant-man if that ever happens) before they can unite them all. And imagine how expensive a movie with Thor, Ironman and Hulk in it would be?

I believe those are all fair comments
And yes a movie with all those superheroes would be very expensive too make the figure would have a lot of Zeros besides it

 

[creecher]

I agree that an all in one movie would be pretty hectic and expensive. It makes sense to do the big superheroes one at a time first. No doubt they'll manage, once they reap in the box office. How long then, till they make the Avengers into a TV series, or any of the superheroes? Best thing to happen in a long while. It may rejuvenate the industry, hopefully, because I am sick of all the reality crap. I get enough of that in my daily life.

 

[OSCORP]

I gave this movie an 8/10 same as i did SM1. Both Fricking awesome flicks, my daughter thought it was "ok" but that was to be expected. The only better starter superhero movie would be Superman the movie as IM surpasses BB IMO.

 

[galactiboy]

Just got back from seeing it... great flick. Really enjoyable and a very good "origins" film. Very interested to see how they continue with a sequel.

Love the Nick Fury part at the end... it really seems like they are working towards movies with some cross-over. Don't know if there will be a full-fledged Avengers flick... but at least some elements being present in future films is a very cool possibility.

 

[Kratos]

Did Tony get with Pepper Potts at the end I can't remember for sure???
I know she tried too kiss him at the party but I'm quite sure Stark didn't can anyone confirm this?

 

[Sachiel]

Hard to say on that.

Nick Fury was cool and I totally didn't get they were 'Shield' until they actually said it.

It was a great origin film.

 

[The Mike]

No. They kept the sexual tension which was awesome. If you paid attention to the releases of images up to the film there was a ton of stuff including Pepper and Tony scenes and his playboy attitude that ended up on the cutting room floor. I'm dying to see what is included in the DVD

Yes it will be interesting too see if there are deleted scenes of them in abit of a 'Love scene' but I swear there is a little snippet of Tony and Pepper about too kiss in one of the Trailers

I'm late to the party, I just saw IRON MAN and it rocks!

Perfect casting as well, like it was mentioned above, the character of Tony Stark had to be done perfectly since he was carrying the show and Robert Downey Jr. was PERFECT. It was one of those situations where I was almost disappointed when he became Iron Man because he was so funny and charismatic as just Stark. I was NEVER bored with this flick and there was never a minute where I wish they'd speed things up.

The suit was done by Stan Winston Studios and the effects between that and the CGI were seamless...it was perfect through and through.

I definitely rank this straight up there with the TOP superhero movies (Spider-Man 1 & 2, Batman Begins, Batman, Superman, X-Men 1 & 2 are among those I consider the best).

Army of the Ten Rings....MANDARIN for the sequel anyone?

Both Howard and Paltrow did perfect for their roles as well. Paltrow is hot in her own unique way and Terrence Howard is a true talent, you could really see him as the calm, rational side to Tony's wild ways...probably why Stark and Rhodes are such good friends. Nice fan call-out with Rhodes looking at the Mark 2 suit and stating "Maybe next time." A few people in the crowd laughed at that.

Jeff Bridges was the cool, collected villain in the movie. I actually begun to think that the terrorist leader was going to become Iron Monger at one point. Great casting once again.

I'm glad SLJ showed up as Nick Fury! I remember reading the rumors that his scene had been cut but I'm glad it was there! I know they based the Ultimate Fury on SLJ and it looked like he stepped right out of the Ultimates comic book.

IRON MAN 2...AVENGERS....I CAN'T WAIT!

 

[The Mike]

According to Paramount if the film does well and it will obviously, they want the sequel out by 2010.

Iron Man 2 in 2010?
Source: Entertainment Tonight May 1, 2008


Entertainment Tonight attended the Iron Man premiere and got a chance to speak to Viacom and CBS Executive Chairman Sumner Redstone and Paramount Pictures CEO Brad Grey who said that if the movie does as well as expected, the studio will be looking to release the sequel in 2010.

What's interesting is that The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader has already "claimed" the first weekend of the summer that year (May 7, 2010), but if you look at the calendar, Iron Man 2 could easily open on April 30, which is a Friday, essentially giving it almost a similar release date as the first film.

Oh! And while press screenings did not have a certain scene after the credits, when Iron Man is released in theaters tonight, it IS expected to have it... so, be sure to stay after the credits!
