Anyone see Iron Man 2 on the weekend?

I hear Scarlett looks pretty tasty in it:

 

[The Oracle]

Saw it yesterday.

Doesn't measure up to the first.

 

[Mineshaft]

I agree with everything that's been posted before me in this thread.

If you do go see it make sure to stay until the very end of the movie. There's a short bit of foreshadowing concerning Thor right after the credits.

I saw it on saturday night,.. meh !

 

[Iconic One]

Saw IM2. My review? Think Matrix 2 and 3.

 

[NorthernBear]

I saw it on Friday. Enjoyed it more than the first one but it appears that i am in the minority.

Got a kick out of seeing Garry Shandling as the asshole congressman.

I thought it was well done, well scripted and very entertaining. Robert Downey Jr. was as charming as ever, the characters were colorful and the plot thick.

Anyone who says differently needs to check their expectations. I just can't fathom what you were expecting in the first place to be disappointed with that movie. It was a fantastic flick.

Seriously? I beg to differ! Were you half asleep during this flick? Did we see the same movie? That's too harsh, in my opinion. Geez...

No, I was awake. I only wished I was sleeping. Did we see the same movie?

Everyone is entitled to their own opinions. Right?

Besides, it'd be pretty dull on here if we all agreed on everything 100%.

 

[randygirl]

Everyone is entitled to their own opinions. Right?

Yep, just like everyone is entitled to question. I maintain what I said, what are people expecting if this movie didn't deliver? It was pure entertainment. Period.

Those who are talking like this movie is shit, are way off base, in my opinion. Matrix 2 and 3? Puh-leese!

 

[rhuarc29]

I didn't really think the first was that great. But I'm still looking to see the second one this weekend.

 

[Insidious Von]

Haven't seen it yet, I intend to.

Someone who has told me that the film is too cluttered and that Downey and Rourke were not allowed to carry the film like they should have.

Btw, did anyone notice that Downey was playing Russell Crowe in black-face in Tropic Thunder? I'm praying that he becomes Dr Moriarty in the Sherlock Holmes sequel.

Good one RG. Without being a movie spoiler, couldn't he just have stuck a nice big copper top in his chest, powering his mega magnet to resolve his bomb fragment condition that he got in Iraq in the first movie and avoid all that drama? I would have gone to Home Depot. I mean really, it used to run on a car battery. How powerful does it have to be?

 

[diehard]

I'm impressed with Rourke's Russian accent. He's a good actor, no matter how cheap he looks.

 

[Worf]

So diehard, have you been asleep for 4 months now and just woke up????

I downloaded the movie in HD 1080p, very good.

 

[hamermill]

Ditto - I am watching for the fourth time. Hmm is it because of the chicks or the special effects...
