I actually had a really strong personal reaction after watching the movie. Not sure where else to talk about this. Watching the movie really made me want to be more like Tony Stark.
This happens after I see/read stories about heroes developed through blood sweat and books. Same reaction after reading Millar’s Red Son. Same after Batman: Year One. It’s like I want to lock myself in my garage (Well, first get a garage, and then lock myself in it) and then reverse engineer guns, engines, and mainframes until I become a Stark, Wayne, or Luthor.
The way it manifests itself is a new motivation to manage my time better (which is fortunate with finals coming up). Which is good, but it also makes me dream of thoroughly understanding and developing upcoming technology in this modern world.
Maybe I drank the koolaid. Maybe I should have been/be a scientist.

2 Seperate groups want me to go see it, so they can go “Is that how it happens in the comic, who’s that?” so I’ll see it Monday and another day with the other group and probably a third by myself and a fourth with my nephew. I am a fucking uberdork

My brother and best friend work at an AMC. I never pay. I’ll probably see this at least two or three more times so I can get all the little comic references I missed originally.
I totally missed the Ten Rings references to Mandarin the first time around. There must be other things I missed too.
I posted this in another thread…but its worth saying again…Ironman was(is) the shit!!..seen it twice since yesterday. Now that is what a Marvel superhero movie is supposed to be.
Maybe this is the difference with Marvel Studios actually producing the movies now…and Paramount only distributing them.
Oh,and William Hurt(General Thunderbolt Ross)has already spilled the beans during an interview about his “scene” with Robert Downey,Jr. in The Incredible Hulk.
Blew my fucking mind. This movie was absolutely amazing. It was the perfect film, I couldn’t think of even one thing they could have done better. Casting was SUPERB. I agree with the OP who said it was better than “Batman Begins.” Yeah, I didn’t think that was possible either.
I also left with a strong desire to be more like Tony Stark. Just amazing. Would love to go see it again - and I NEVER do that.
I have to see it again in the next couple days because I’m numb from the awesomeness and can’t remember details. Actually I take that back; I do remember the stripper pole. lol…

Funny ass scene.
I was wondering how they got to the strip club so quick.
