Default Ironman/Box Office

Anyone go see the new Ironman movie? or any new movies recently?

I saw Ironman friday night and it was awesome. I went in there with low expectations considering X-men was cool but mostly a joke and spider-man 1 was good, 3 was bad. So Marvel didn't seem to know exactly what they were doing in my eyes, but Ironman went way beyond my expectations. It was fantastic (unlike the fantastic four movies which were completely horrible).

Also, a few friends and I were talking about movies in the theaters, and besides Ironman, I can't think of anything notable that seems good enough to watch. If anyone has seen anything good, please let me know! Movies with crowds of people are fun trips.

I thought it was great! Of course I like all the Marvel movies though. We had a movie day yesterday, we saw "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" at 1:30 and then "Iron Man" at 4:30. Those are the best days, both movies were excellent.

I loved the Ironman comic series, before and after he had his own designated comics. The only thing that I questioned for any difference was the scene after the credits. **For those who don't want to know, it is a SMALL spoiler ahead!**













Sam Jackson playing Nick Fury, in the original Nick Fury was drawn as a white male character. Of course, in the second generation he was depicted as a black character so I guess I can assume they go with that one; but that was my only moment where I said hold on, this ain't right.

ah cool, I liked the comic books too. Another thing I thought was cool was when the agent at the end said to just call them S.H.I.E.L.D. Thats a pretty big name drop and leads into the Nick Fury (leader of shield) scene after the credits. The original Nick Fury was definatley a white guy, but hey sam jackson is awesome.
