I'm starting to notice a trend in recent Hollywood movies...can't put my finger on it...
Ah well, perhaps we'll start seeing comic-book crossovers soon. That'd rock.
<@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs
This will ROCK, and we all know it... yes I'm serious!

Robert Downey Jr. is a great cast... especially since he's alcoholic and will be able to relate to Stark's character.
While Robert Downey Jr. is one of my favourite actors, I can't help but feel that this is a little weird...
Tony Stark is supposed to be a tall, broad, muscular giant, well not a giant as such but I can't see Downey Jr. filling that role. Still, better than the supposed rumours of Tom Cruise taking the position. *shudder*
I think I know precisely what I mean
when I say it's a schpadoinkle day
Don't know if he's suitable. I mean, Stark's a playboy eccentric billionaire.
MmmMmm. Ooiiishiii

This is the first comic to movie adaptation that actually gained my interest pre-release.

I don't feel like saving all the pics so I'll just link it:
Iron man's costume

I don't like Iron Man in the comics at the moment, but I'm seeing this movie:
I AM IRON MAN!!!
R.I.P Captain America.
I like how the teaser and concept art use a pretty heavily Ultimate Universe influenced version of the armor while the footage and props are of the first armor that Stark builds in captivity. Is the movie going to have an entirely separate storyarc besides him building the armor to save himself and escaping?

Does anyone else think the suit looks more plasticky/composite than metallic/iron? It also doesn't look as robotic-blocky as I'd imagined, more liquid-metal and like a suit of knight armor than in the comics, ie, it looks like it's a thousand pieces put together, rather than several large pieces. While it's more realistic, I don't like it compared to the early comic version. Still, the movie looks really good, from the geek side.
“For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?”
I was thinking the exact same thing. He doesn't look as big as the Iron Man I remember from the 80's through the early 90's (yes I know there were several different variations on the suit during that time frame).Originally Posted by Animeniax
Where have you been? that's how the suit looks in the comic right now, why would the movie go with that outdated 90's look?Originally Posted by fahoumh

*thinks back to Iron Man*
