IRON MAN

The last time I read an Ironman comic was years back when I was a kid and probably when he makes special appearances in Spideyman and the Fantastic 4 comics. But only when it was announced that Robert Downey Jr. will play the role of Tony Stark, I was syked.

And yeah, I saw IRONMAN yesterday, one of the special screenings due to the Labour day holiday and oh boy, The movie was a perfect entertainer, funny Super hero movie with pretty good gadgets too. Downey was amazing as the charismatic-playboy billionaire owner of the Start Industries, Tony Stark. He pulled off the role easily.
The suit was amazing, especially after the suit evolved from the rusty unfinished first suit made at afghanistan to the shiny armour with red. Jeff Bridges as Obadiah Stane was good too.

I guess the Marvel franchise is back especially after few debacles after X-men: The Last Stand, Ghost Rider, Fantastic 4 movies. A total entertainer comes close to Spidey 2(realized that after prestidigitator asked me whether it is better than Spiderman 2)

Like Nicholas mentioned, ” ..I dare you not to get entertained”

Now I’ll have to wait for The Dark Knight and The Incredible Hulk. Dark Knight is gonna be a joy ride for me(I think, I hope) and I wish Incredible Hulk is good for Edward Nortan’s sake.

EDIT: It seems that after the end credits Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury talks about the Avengers…damn! . Is it true? Did I miss it? Looks I’ll have to see the movie again.
