"Iron Man" First Blockbuster Hit For Marvel Entertainment. Watch Out For The Iron Man Sequel In 2010


I saw "Iron Man" on its opening weekend so I contributed to the $100 million opening figure it claims. And I have to say it was worth it. Robert Downey Jr. was just delicious as he portrayed Tony Starks. The man may need rehabilitation but he is one great actor.

The plot itself was true to the comic book hero, although it has a few minor adjustments to suit modern-day scenarios, the movie will not disappoint "Iron Man" fans.

It has been said the "Iron Man" is only second to "Spider-man" in terms of biggest opening for a nonsequel, but I tell you "Iron Man" is even better than "Spider-man" - and the reason I say that is because Tony Starks is very human. He's a lazy ass, pompous ego-maniac who just decided he thinks becoming Iron Man is the right thing to do. Doesn't get any more real than that.

The sequel sounds exciting as well, since the cameo of Samuel L. Jackson who is just amazing - so the next Iron Man is bound to be much better
