Midnight IM2

SJ never looked soooo good.

I ended up seeing them back to back.

Part 1 was still kickass. 5 out of 5

Part 2 was really weak IMO. Favreau had way too much forced comedy (that wasnt funny) and basically no action. Rourke had potential and was ok but could have been used much better. Last battle was awful. Don Cheadle was really bad in it and showed no chemistry at all with Downey Jr. Missed Terrence's Rhodes for sure, as he had much better chemistry with Stark. SJ's character was pretty useless. The musical score was a lot better in part 1 as well. 2didnt use nearly enough of the main themes from part 1. I won't even comment on Gary Shandling's character...or Hammer's CEO. God.

2 out of 5 for me. No drama or suspense at all....I was bored most of the time while watching it and never got bored once with Iron Man 1.

Oh well. Part 1 had so many classic moments and is one of the best superhero movies of all time. Part 2 just fell short...big time. At least it wasnt Transformers 2 bad though.

I was also very upset they didnt use the Iron Man "voice" from part 1. Example, when he says "He's all yours" from part 1. They more or less just kept it Downey's normal voice, even with the mask on.

yeah i hate it when people say things like that and then post them in a forum for all to read.

Oh, cry me a river.

Seriously dude, this is a forum about the midnight release of the movie, which means its for people who went to see it at midnight to post in. we should all know what the scene was.

if you came in here expecting otherwise its your own fault in this case. ive specifically avoided going into threads involving iron man 2 since the movie came out in europe last week to avoid getting spoiled myself.

Saw both Iron Man movies last night. The first one was as great as ever. Still the best comic book movie I've seen. Iron Man 2 is the second best comic book movie I've seen now over TDK. Loved how they took Stark on the ride of going a bit dark and showing how he reacts to it by almost tossing it all away. Seeing all the new suits was great. Cannot wait for Hot Toys to get the Mark V and VI out to us and of course War Machine was awesome.

I loved how all the actors played off each other and thought it came out sweet! RDJ is just so perfect for Tony Stark its amazing! I truly think if Tony was real it would be RDJ. Jackson was awesome as Fury and can't wit to see more of him in that role. I would like to have seen more of BW role worked out better. Not enough background in the movie IMO and her fight scene has elements that just looked odd but that's really my only issue. I'm not a big Paltrow fan but dang she's hot and does well with pepper.

I'd give this one a solid 9/10 for me personally.

We did not watch the same movie.

Dare I suggest sitting through two movies back to back for that long ruined the 2nd one for you.

I Knew you would agree Fuzzy

Who ever disagree's is

The only problem was that I have specifically avoided finding out what the scene at the end of the credits was since it got leaked. Then, during the credits, the dumb _____ next to me turns and says "Just so you know, %$^%$^&%$ is going to be on after the credits."

Ya it sucks when ppl spoil things like that, I'm glad you dont partake in such things.

I loved the movie. Had a great time. I definitely feel like it matched the first. It told a good story and had some great dialogue. There were a few parts I felt provided plotholes, but they ended up getting explained so it all came together just fine.

I told her off and nearly got into a fight with her boyfriend after that. Otherwise, it was a great experience. There were a ton of comic geeks there I ended up meeting and getting the chance to talk to.

geez i wonder why you almost got into a fight in a movie theater

first you post how it pissed you off so much that someone said something to you in the thearter, to the point that you get into a fight in a public place, then you turn around and do it yourself in a forum that has spoiler tags for such things..
btw i already knew that HUGE secret so no harm done here, but i think someone needs some anger management.

so there

Went to see it last night expecting the worst but I really liked it.

The plot slugged on slowly in certain parts but overall it was good and the fight scenes make this an instant special edition dvd purchase for me

 

[The Batman Professor]

Liked it quite a lot, although I don't think it's as consistently good as the first one. RDJ is awesome as usual.

 

[bouncing_boy77]

the "ex-wife" made me lol! i really liked it like the 1st one.

You're right, I did come off a bit harsh there. I didn't mean to sound so serious, I meant it in a lighthearted manner. Sorry man, no harm done I hope!

and as for the fight. i didnt instigate it. after she told me that i just thanked her for ruining the surprise for me, to which her boyfriend immediately asked if i had a problem. when i told him what it was he put on a macho routine trying to get me to go over and fight him. i wasnt going to give him that pleasure, so i went to another seat.

so no, i dont need anger management. after dealing with an overly angry father my whole life, i take pride in my lack of showing true anger. i just dont sugarcoat stuff. but thats a story and topic for another time.

Word!
She was something wasn't she lol. I elbowed my girlfriend a couple of times and said "damnnnn" during a few of her scenes.
