OMG... more crappy superhero movies??? doh.gif X-men deteriorated throughout the 3 films, Fantastic Four was yucks... Superman Returns (ok, it's DC, but still superhero) was absolutely unbearable... And I guess I don't need to elaborate on the Punisher who punished us to watching it.

Seriously, the only superhero movie that captured the essence of the character was Spiderman... Batman Begins was good, only to be spoiled by the absurd villain.... Microwave to evaporate water?? Might as well shoot microwaves at human beings..

Iron Man better be good... yet I'm not holding any high hopes.

The guy being rumoured now is Oded Fehr.

That's the fella in Mummy right? The sidekick that always comes out at the right time and saves the main character's butt.

OMG he looks just like Tony Stark... Brilliant.

Now let's see who is suitable for War Machine... Jamie Foxx? tongue.gif if he cuts down on the rapper bling bling and act mature like in "Colleteral" then he might just be suitable.

Looking good. The trailer really did capture the essence of Iron Man, and Downey does look like a rich and ragged playboy. Nevertheless, looks like the movie might be flooded with excessive CGIs which would probably make the movie look cartoonish, like Fantastic 4 did.

Ironman 2008 gonna be highly anticipated. Casting wise, they chose the right people to play all the characters involved. I love to see Robert Downey play the role. I think this movie strength will be in the CGI, just watching the trailer was breathtaking especially the flying part. Oh boy, even F-18 couldn't catch up to Ironman. My only worries is in the storyline. Although, watching the trailer does have its striking resemblance to the previous Ironman Animated movie. I just hope its gonna be entertaining. Otherwise, it'll just be a fun no-brainer movie like most marvel movies are. tongue.gif

Hell yeah !! It does resemble the animated series, especially the part where Stark built the original Ironman armour.

The CGI is decent, yet nothing spectacular as Transformers has already showed us how realistic machines can be created digitally. What I'm more interested in is whether the movie can capture the essence of the characters, like how Batman Begins and Spiderman did. We as viewers need to see Robert Downey as Stark, not him ACTING as Stark. I don't expect much from the story line since super hero movies are mainly character-based more than plot-based, apart from the compulsory action scenes of course.

Oh yeah, those are YF-22 Raptors, not FA-18 Hornets biggrin.gif
