Iron Man 2 (2010)

Here’s the soundtrack with some clips from the movie http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9kD8sxIjVuc

Not sure, just getting major disappointment vibes from this film 😁 Honestly, probably gonna be something like Transformers 2

This is going to be absolutely brilliant... and honestly, that AC/DC soundtrack just fits the vibe perfectly!

New Asian TV spot dropped, packed with fresh clips from the movie...

The acting lineup is absolutely killer. I'm really hoping it holds up to the first one, though I'm certain they'll rake in a massive pile of cash regardless. 😬

IMAX fans...



Even the clips look good...

I have a feeling this whole thing is going to end up having sequels. 🙄

Just imagine the titles:

Cobalt Man, Son of Iron Man
Return of the Son of Silverman
Platinum Girl from Helium City
Iridium Redneck vs. Selenium City Boy
and so on.

If they decide to follow the stylistic direction of the first Iron Man—though I'm still quite uncertain about the creative path they're taking with the sequel—I certainly wouldn't find that to be an issue at all.

Who on earth is going to be around to see this play out? I’ve found myself staring at this single unit at least five or six times now, just trying to make sense of it, and if this successor turns out to be even half as decent as the first one, 🙂

I mean, would a person actually survive inside some "armored" setup like that if they took a nasty plunge from 20 or 30 meters up?

Not really.
Btw, I'm curious about what Nick Furry actually does in this movie...

The first one was killer. Can't wait for the second

Hitting our theaters tomorrow. And that’s a full week ahead of the US premiere.

I went ahead and booked the tickets for tomorrow 🙂 .

Is there any way to actually watch him with decent picture quality?

Yeah, you can hit up the local cinema to see it on the big screen.☕

I consider myself a huge movie buff. I can usually find something positive even in bad films. But I only made it halfway through this one! It was the first time in my life I actually stood up and walked out of a theater because the movie was just that terrible and overwhelming.
The pacing is a disaster. They kept introducing new characters halfway through—maybe even later, I don't know since I left. The special effects aren't anything special either. Some parts are totally unbelievable (like, SPOILER: a guy gets poisoned by palladium or whatever is in his mini reactor, yet Stark wears that suit unnecessarily when he's breathing heavily).
Gwyneth overacts, Scarlett looks obviously photoshopped in, and don't even get me started on Jackson. Even the fight scenes and effects in the first half are subpar—choppy cuts, bad CGI—it feels rushed. Like they just scrambled to finish it. And poorly at that. Maybe Terrence Howard left because he knew what a piece of junk this was going to be. I don't think I'll ever watch a sequel. Bad, bad, bad.
The only bright spot is Rourke as the villain; he’s convincing and really nailed the role.
Even Rockwell didn't particularly shine.
Just for the record, I enjoyed the first part, but I think we're looking at a classic Transformers syndrome situation here.

Hmm... I'll believe it when I see it myself... since all I've seen so far are glowing reviews...

The movie isn't bad—honestly, it feels like a pretty natural follow-up to a really solid first installment... despite all those rumors floating around, I don't really get the Rocky comparisons... the dialogue hits the mark and the plot holds up quite well until that "big twist" near the end, where things start to dip a little bit... I wasn't a huge fan of how the lead character handles his physical injury, though...

All in all, I'm actually feeling pretty good about it...

I'm honestly at a loss for words. I was expecting something slightly weaker than the first one, but it sounds like it's so abysmal you can't even finish it...😢 I thought the original was great, so I'm genuinely curious if they truly botched the sequel this badly, though... well, to each their own. For instance, you seem to think Avatar is a masterpiece while I found it pretty average—even a bit boring and overhyped...🤷 so I'll wait until I can see it myself, and seeing that most comments are positive gives me some hope...🙂

Exactly this!

I am actually heading out to the theater today to catch the sequel to one of those top-tier films based on comic books... I truly don't believe it will be bad, and while it might not quite reach the heights of the first installment, it certainly won't be a disaster... Unfortunately, some folks who aren't quite aware of the bigger picture might wonder why the pacing feels a little slower or why there are so many new characters being introduced, but it is all just setting the stage for the upcoming Avengers movie...
