I just saw it today. I never read any of the comic books but it was a very cool movie. I think RDJ did a great job. I eagerly await the sequel. I took my 5 y/o son to it and one thing I enjoyed was there was no blood/guts/gore..pretty safe..and he enjoyed it as well..lol Not bad for a movie directed by Jon Favreau (sic).

Very good family movie. You stayed past the credits, right?

Saw it the Friday after it opened. Loved it. I dug ol' shellhead comics as a kid, so I really dug some of the nods to fans in there, but also saw how accessable it could be to someone completely new to the franchise. Probably the best superhero movie I've seen!

Oh, the music. I forgot to mention. Of the three May summer movies, it had the best music, but it was the first time I can remember not being superbly amazed by the music of someone associated with Hans Zimmer.

you mean I have to sit all the way through the movie to hear what you don't want to spoil?

We could tell you here, but I don't remember if we have any approximations of spoiler tags for the boards. Something that puts it into black text black background marked spoiler, so you'd have to highlight it deliberately to see what we wrote.

There is such a tag here...it's the [ SPOILER ] tag... e.g.:

This is hidden from view...yeah!
By the way...I enjoyed the movie as well. I did stay past the credits...but I didn't think it was worth having to sit through all of the credits to see. I guess it's just a peeve of mine that the producers make me sit through the credits to see just a little glimpse into the next movie. Why not just put it at the end!?!

Well, it answered the question for me as to why he wasn't used in the promo.

Spoiler detailing the after-credits sequence:
Once I heard several months back that Samuel L. Jackson was cast as Nick Fury, I was super excited to see it. Then his name never appeared on anything big. I wondered, WTF?, they have SLJ but advertise Downey? In any case, it was, to me, worth it to see him talk about superheroes and Avenger Initiative.


(yes, I also wanted to test the spoiler tag!)

      My Favorite Putts

      By DrizZzY ·

      I dont know if I really have a favorite, but there are two that have stuck in my mind for a very long time. #15 at Erie Golf course during the Finals of the EDGA Matchplay. Was up early and then lost a few holes in row so the match was close again. My opponent had a short putt for birdie. I hit past hole high, but 35 feet right. I drained the putt and looked over at my opponent who was in disbelief.   #8 at Whispering Woods during another year of the EDGA Matchplay. Was playing a very cocky opponent who made sure to mention on the first tee how many times he won the club championship at this course. I hammered this 30 footer that clanked off of the pin and dropped. My opponent was disgusted and that made me weirdly happy. I went on to win 5&3 or something like that, so that entire day has stayed in my memory.

      Day 20: Did 30 minutes after getting home from work, before kid's baseball practice. This session was piecing out the new hip move in transition, doing 2-3 rehearsals from the top, and then hitting a ball from between P5/P6. Did another 45 minutes after baseball practice and dinner. Did 30 more minutes of what I did earlier, and then about 15 minutes of full swings trying to incorporate athletically.
