Movies Worth Seeing

Robert Downey Jr as a superhero? Our doubts were major, especially with Jon Favreau helming the picture. Yeah, Swingers and Made were great, but Iron Man is a completely different, nerdier beast. One that can't fall back on Vince Vaughn's ad-libs.

But now we've watched the trailer, and it makes us feel like complete nincompoops with no vision at all.

    Robert Downey Jr is one of the most talented, versatile, and underrated actors, ever. Unfortunately, he became more famous for his drug addictions and run-ins with the law, which severely overshadowed his acting career. Many people can't seem to separate his craft from his personal life and have never even bothered to watch his films because of it. Judgmental fucks… they're the ones missing out.

    I think maybe I need to add a "is grumpy" to the end of my name.

    I love RDJ but hated Kiss Kiss Bang Bang…anyone else?
    I'll see this one for RDJ but I think it still looks kinda lame. Plus there's this other superhero movie out this summer, with some hot dude named BALE! Maybe you've heard of it???

    Was that supposed to be interesting? I just saw a lot of machine-type things moving around with loud noises, and Gwyneth Paltrow being more smug than ever. Bitch has never had to 'job hunt' in her whole life. Would it have killed them to cast someone more relatable? Next.

    I think its safe to assume rfitzimmons is the grumpiest of us all. I can't wait to download Ironman before it hits the theatres!

    I'm so glad that Iron Man and Dark Knight are in theaters this summer instead of Transformers 2. I look forward to both movies because Chris Nolan can do no wrong and Jon Favreau was on The Sopranos and Friends once.

    Robert Downey, Jr., my main man. I love him and James Spader. Ever since they have been around. You just don't know what they will do and bless RDJ for getting his act together and showcasing his talent.

    RDJ may have his personal problems but he's never (to my knowledge) turned in a crappy performance. Of course, I haven't seen Edward Norton do a bad job, either, but I am completely skeptical about this incarnation of the Incredible Hulk.
