it is.   i was there with a USAF staff sergeant who pointed out all the ranks, identified all the equipment, and was generally excited about all the air force presence in the movie.

the news graphic referred to lt. col Rhodes are colonel.  Also, I think Cuba Gooding Jr. would have been better

for some reason I thought this movie would be one that beefy had some obscure vendetta/boycott against.  I would rate it as below X-Men 2 (my favorite of the modern comic adaptations) and above Spiderman 1. 

how hopeful should I be for all sort of marvel heroes in the Avenger movie.  i mean it would be awesome if  X-men, spidey and even daredevil got a cameo

I have no issue with this film.  Why would I?

Because they were so busy printing money that they forgot to deliver your comics on time? Is this a test?

because you have had issues with many other seemingly innocuous films

Bad. Ass.  So much fun.

People who didn't wait until after the credits are suckers.

I'm going to go but I wouldn't say I'm excited.  There simply isn't that much you can do with the Hulk as a character, let alone a heroic character.  And most of that got done in the last film.

I totally forgot about the part at the end of credits.

Still, I loved this movie.  It far exceeded my expectations.  Very strong film.

I got my Iron Man Blu-ray disc today...who wants to come watch? Be here in 30 minutes. I have snacks.

The guy at Blockbuster said they've had to ship back half off all discs sue to defects.  Scrutinize your purchase carefully.

There was a huge recall before the actual release happened. Paramount says that all is well now. No problems so far. I think I want to get Transformers, too.

Do you guys think Blue-Ray will last and eventually replace regular DVDs?  I have lukewarm feelings about the whole Blue-Ray issue and personally don't feel a need for buying them as long as DVD's are available.

And more on topic, I'm pumped about soon owning Iron Man.  I was so impressed with it.

Costco had a Blue Ray video demonstration on the difference between Blue Ray and and standard def DVDs using the animated movie Cars. They put up a dividing line and showed the difference between Blue Ray and standard def on a HiDef TV. I must admit that since then, I've been shopping Blue Ray DVD players. I'll wait until they are < $300 before I buy one. At that point we will start buying Blue Ray DVDs. Until then, standard def DVDs will do for me.

awesome, you've finally got something to play on your ps3!!!!


i'm kidding. i'm sure talladega nights is just about wore out by now. :D

ReBurn

I didn't get one with Talladega Nights. I wish I did. Then I would have had something to play :( LittleBigPlanet comes out in a couple of weeks, though.

I still buy 95% of my movies on DVD. The more recent DVD releases seem to be copied from high def masters, so on a good upscaling DVD player (like the PS3) the picture quality is still really good. Obviously it can't put something into the picture that isn't there, but I believe that the resolution of the content is higher in the last couple of years.

I'm actually going to do a little experimenting of my own. I bought Iron Man on Blu-ray yesterday, but I also won a DVD copy at Wally World's grand re-opening this morning when I stopped to buy my lunch on the way to work. So I'm going to try to tell if the Blu-ray was really worth it, aside from the web-enabled content and exclusive special features.

I don't even remember there being one of those.
we should have kept the quote pyramid up to rape Jessie in the face.

it was near the beggining of the movie, with the lady that wanted to interview him

Watched it for the first time last night

Piss piss piss poor writing.

Fair directing.

All saved by Rober Downey  Jr.

Terrance Howard never fails at being cool. 

Jeff Bridges is talented enough to be evil in one movie, the dude in the next, the president in another and not get type cast.  It's really impressive when you stop and think about it.

I'm convinced he was born to be The Dude.
