I had a night away from the DU, saw Iron Man (LOVED IT)

No spoilers. I just wanted to say the 4:15 matinee was about 1/2 full. From the faces I saw after the film, I'm sure this is a blockbuster.

2. I haven't seen it yet, but plan to
Casting Robert Downey Jr as Tony Stark was brilliant, I think.

I'm hoping it has as much edge as I suspect it has.

3. Did you stay until the end credits were done?
If not, you'll be fury-ous with what you missed out on. Going to see it Saturday. Can't wait.

4. Serious question.
Does it glorify weaponry or war?

I'm not trying to be an ass with this question either.

7. Okay thanks.
I want to see it (love Robert Downey Jr) but don't much care to see weaponry and war glorified.

14. What I heard was it's done with Downey playing a Comic Book Character...but with a message
about War. For all Downey's terrible problems with cocaine he, along with Johnny Depp seems to turn out incredible acting performances. Very underated. I can't wait to see it. I'm going on a relative's comments who thought it was great and liked Downey in it.

8. Not to tip too much, but Tony Stark
is a big arms manufacturer who finally questions all the death he's brought into the world. Good movie.

13. Just heard from my Sister-in-Law that it was very good!
And that's a plus...because she doesn't like many movies.

I reluctantly went with the kid and spouse and to my surprise, I really liked it. I must have that soundtrack!!! A few minutes later - I have the soundtrack!!!
