Whiplash wants his Burd: Iron Man 2 Thread

Bells · 05-03-2010, 05:02 PM

C'mon! Iron man 2 is out, who got to see it?

Quite frankly? Not as Awe inspiring as the first one, but i really really liked. The seemed to managed to condense the Downfall and rise of Tony in a single movie very nicely. Also War machine was done very well, and the Shield Backdrop was perfect (And, really, all scenes with "Agent Romanoff" kicked ass)

All and all, a very solid blockbuster and i'm glad i got to see it on the big screen.

Plus, the extra scene in the end just made me even more excited about the Avengers movie. I was never a big Avengers fan, but in a world where Hero Movies with many characters seem to fail, this one i think it can succeed.

Oh Scarlett Johansson, why do you continually refuse to answer my e-mail proposals? Dying your hair red just teases me further.

How do you guys see movies before they come out nationwide? Do you live in cities with limited showings or what?

Bells · 05-03-2010, 05:33 PM

It's out in Brazil since March 30! That's when i saw it, actually. There were both sub and dub versions in the theater here. Are you sure it's not on your area yet??

No, it seems international release came first. It hits theaters here this weekend.

I'd suspect it's to cash in on the Japanese market as early as possible, since it IS a movie about a billionaire in a robot suit. Americans can wait for these things, but if the timing isn't right in Japan it can be easily clouded over by the latest live-action Gundam movie or whatever.

Oh, saw it yesterday.

Suitcase suit! Yeaaaaah!

I loved how singularly ineffectual Hammer was. That guy is just lame.

meh. Im gonna see it, but I just finished reading all the Civil war stuff (im new to everything thats not Daredevil, so it seemed like a good place to jump into the rest of the '0verse) so im still bitter at IM being a huge dick.

To be fair, that's pretty much Tony Stark's character in a nutshell. Movie Stark is much more likable. He's still a dick, but he's a lovable dick.

I'm holding out on it because I'm hoping to see it in IMAX with my girlfriend in a few weeks.
