Now THAT was a good movie. It wasn’t a good comic book movie, it was a good movie. Just go.
I have to confess, one of the reasons I liked it so much is that Iron Man flies exactly the same way I fly when I have flying dreams. I know, sounds weird, but true.
Oh, and if you want to know what possible sequels may be coming out, stick around until after all the credits have rolled.
Update: While I was watching BSG last night, I had a brilliant flash of the obvious that Iron Man is a good Science Fiction Movie. That’s what makes it better than some of the other comic to screen stories that have come out recently. Plausible story, realistic human interaction, and current technology pushed to heightened capabilities. I also remembered thinking when I was in high school, that Iron Man’s armor was directly “borrowed” from Robert Heinlein’s “Starship Troopers.”
Okay, I’m done geeking out for the week.
