Ill wait for this to hit the newzbinz........

I just can't bring myself to pay to support such a loser.
If it was you or me in his shoes we would be rotting in jail.

He's perfect for the role for that very reason.

Just be happy that Tom Cruise's version never made it.

I noticed the Iron Man toys hit the store last week. They actually look pretty good but are a bit thin on the roster - Iron Man Mark I, Mark II, Mark III and some other version that you open up to see Stark and then Iron Monger.

May 2nd can't come soon enough.
How the hell is Jackson playing Nick Fury?!?:| I had high hopes for this movie, but this was a seriously bad move.

I don't think movies have been stale. Well, this time period (winter through early spring) tends to be a drag when it comes to hollywood releases. But you get those gems that are more drama or mystery in nature. Action is all about summer. Horror and drama tends to stick mostly in the fall, and you get the sci-fi and even more drama in winter. Of course there are the blockbusters that like to break the normal routine, but that tends to be how it goes. Kind of makes sense too. The more uppity films for the warm and energetic months, fall is where it starts getting a little doom-like (impending boredom coming by means of winter), and winter is drab and boring. So you'll get the big blockbusters in December sometimes, and seems to always be in December.

That's kind of what I've gotten out of it while working in the theater biz and generally following movie releases as I love movies.

For the record, the answer to the original question was a definite yes.

Why did you bother resurrecting this thread which has been dead for just shy of a year?
