Sunday Matinee: "Iron Man"

[timepiececlock]

Go.

Now.

It's freaking unbelievably great. It's everything a summer movie with superheroes should be, and it does it so well I almost forget that I'm watching a comic book superhero movie at all. Best one since Batman Begins, and on par with BB in terms of pure entertainment and class.

I've never read Iron Man comics, or watched cartoons for it, or even knew the name of the protagonist, but now I can say I am, most definitely, a fangirl.

Robert Downey Jr.-- Tony Stark-- you made. my. weekend.

A friend of mine said she saw the post-credits scene on YouTube. Not sure how she found it. I'm sure it'd be rather easy to turn up with their search engine.

I'm guessing by your icons that you liked it too. I haven't looked at my flist for a while, so I don't know how others are reacting.

I thought it was great. Judging by the previews for The Dark Knight and The Incredible Hulk, this is gonna be a pretty good movie season for comics fans.
