That looked nice.

I definitely buy RDJ as Tony Stark. And the suit looks awesome. :)

Group think from a bunch of comic fans... it doesnt surprise me that the impact and excitement SEEMED big.

As for me, the casual fan. I'm tired of comic adaptations so this trailer was a big yawn. VERY big yawn. Hollywood needs to turns its sights elsewhere, this current trend is about as overplayed as it can get.

Yeah, I think RDJ was a good choice. Stark isn't some 20-year-old hotshot, and comedy fits nicely. Oh, and I dig using "Iron Man" as a theme song.

Curiousity question: did no one like the Ang Lee Hulk movie?

Own it but still need to watch it, so I can't say. Most people I know did not like it though one of my friends loved it.

It was a bit like stabbing yourself in the face with a rusty screwdriver. I'm glad Marvel bought the rights to most of their characters back. It means the next Hulk movie should be awesome (I'm sorry but Ed Norton being Bruce......the villains being the leader and the abomination. there is no way it can't be awesome. The fact that they are producing it means you are going to get something true. I loved the attitude of tony stark in that clip reel. Just a complete douchebag.....gotta love it. Then he gets the suit and is still a douchebag....just a different kind of one. I love it....looks great..

What other comic movies has Marvel done recently that they had the kind of control they're going to with Hulk: The Return? Ghost Rider? Just trying to get a basis for comparison to determine whether or not them controlling stuff in house is a good thing. Sure there have been some brutal Marvel films but there have also been some kick-ass ones

I enjoyed The Hulk. It wasn't high quality, and the ending got ridiculous, but it kept me entertained.

Hulk had the problem that it had a really good movie in it....It had 3 acts....

Act : 1 - The Beginning - Complete Shit
Act 2 - The Middle - Fucking awesome
Act 3 - The End - Complete ultra mega super nasty shit

It really blew my mind that they had Ang Lee do that movie. I mean, he said himself that he doesn't do comic book movies. This is the same guy that did "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and "Brokeback Mountain". What were they thinking?

I have always been a closet fan of Ironman. Used to watch the cartoon... never too into him but if I got to pick from a group of superheros I'd always choose him. The whole story is just awesome. This looked pretty damn nice.
