Let's not forget to applaud Robert Downey, who has combated drug abuse and alcoholism in real life. He's really turning his life around and becoming a great actor. Everyone should check him out in the movie, Zodiac.

Zodiac was good, but way too long. But as for Iron Man, I'll probably see it at some point. Friends are all going to see it at Midnight I believe, and I work at that time so, I'll wait or whatever.

I do agree the song choice was pretty off for the trailer. Could've chosen something else, but I guess they went the lazy route and went with that.

I'll go see it if they have a new Preview for Indiana Jones before it, as is rumored.

After that preview I will probably just leave.

Wow, you'd really pay $8.50 to do that? Crazy.

That was a good article. I liked the 1602 concept alot, and the look of the armor was neat. Hehe I had no idea that Stark changed armor so much. :P

It isn't so much that he changes it, but writers like to put their stamp on a character.

You can't do much with characters like Superman or Spiderman as they have a general theme. But Iron Man and Batman go through a lot of different costumes and variations.

If you want to see the crazy, look at Batman's batmobile.

No haha I wouldnt, especially since the new trailer will be available on the internet anyways. But my point stands, I have no real desire to see Ironman.

From what I've seen of Indy (yeah I've seen the new trailer ) and what I know of Ironman right now that is so backwards.

Do you think Iron Man will be better than Spider-Man? Because Spider-Man was a GREAT movie.

I'm exhausted.

But damn fine movie.

Downey Jr was awesome.

And make sure you stay after the credits.
