I hope they build more suits!

Just joshing, I liked Iron Man and can't wait to watch it again on Blu-Ray. By the way, how great is it that we live in a world where Christian Bale and Robert Downey Jr. headline the biggest movies of the year?

Good. Favreau seems to be a class act. And, I like the way he reacts with his fans.

I hope they cover Iron Man's alcoholism more in this coming movie. I read somewhere, which means it probably isn't true, that Terence Howard character at one point dons the Iron Man suit because RDJ is too smashed. . .

Actually that does happen in the comics. Stark delves deeper in alcoholism and Rhodes starts to wear the Iron Man suit. But since the neurological part of the suit wasn't made for him he like loses control or something like that. Or he could just become War Machine in the next movie. That'd be cool too.

Great to hear.

The political cause aspect of the article is interesting as well. If other cities are enacting such policies to attract filming, why can't LA?

Of course he is. He'd have to be insane not to.

Since it's now acknowledged in both Iron Man and Incredible Hulk that their universes overlap, it would be cool if in the next film, we see a guest apperance by another Marvel hero--more than a cameo. What would also be cool is if, over time and the course of several films, the heroes even get to battle other villains that aren't their standard arch-enemies(such as if I.M. had to take down the Abomination).

I still think Marvel went off its rocker by allowing Sony to keep the rights to Spider-Man. How can their most well-known hero NOT get to interact with the others?

Huh?

Anyone?

Bueller...?

Bueller.....

lol. yeah, keep looking for Bueller and expecting the silence. Marvel's decision regarding the rights to Spider-Man, considering ESPECIALLY Sony's attitude regarding the natural (and intensely desired by fans!!) cross pollination of characters, will probably rank as one of the biggest mistakes ever made in Hollywood. It's certainly Marvel's dumbest move in the entire history of the company. I think it so bad a decision that I'm inclined to think there's some other behind-closed-doors detail involved that we don't know. SM3 aside, this is my single most readily justified reason for NEVER AGAIN paying money to see a Sony produced Spider-Man film.

Great news but getting caught up in Arnold's "Made in California" B.S. is not something any movie should be involved in.

I'll say it again. Iron Man was better than Dark Knight,IMO. I'm pump Favreau is back. Can't wait.

i agree with you, ironmanstarks.

I hope iron man 2 has a Thor cameo, since he'll probably need the attention to attract audiences.

Until California learns it can't continue to tax the shiz out of everyone business will go elsewhere and the state will stay in the red... I hope IM2 will be as entertaining as the first!

Well, this is certainly most comforting and soothing news of the

day! I hope they do eventually tackle Tony's alchol problem and yes more

crossovers because in Favereau we trust! Also, sorry to bring up a unrelated

topic but WarSuxLetsParty & ironmanstarks issued their opinion and so I must

Disagree with their opinion of Iron Man being better than the Dark Knight.

Please, I apoligized if my opinion offended anybody and let us move on with

this good news, shall we :)
