Good film. Marvel Productions is really starting to hit their stride when it comes to the summer superhero category. Iron Man, their latest release, has done extremely well (posting over $100M in its opening weekend. I can’t say for certain that even Marvel would have thought Iron Man would reach this figure. Iron Man was one of the Marvel films I am sure to pick up in DVD. It was funny, action packed, and who can forgo seeing a brilliant and eccentric multi-billionaire in a suit bent on saving the world through targeted mass destruction?? Marvel has had its share of bad films (cough cough – the Fantastic Four series), but they do come through when I need them to (X2, Spiderman 2).

As an ode to Iron Man I’ve changed the wallpaper on my computer to the one below.

Can’t wait for the Incredible Hulk. I heard Marvel bought back the rights so they could make this one themselves independently. GOOD. At least now Marvel can only blame themselves if this film goes bust.
