+1. Don's awesome. I'll be intrigued to see that Miles movie, I think he's a decent enough lookalike.
saw it last night, it surprized me. i loved the first one, and thought this one was great too. All they characters are smarta$$es, so all the cheesy 1 liners and random outbursts actuallyfit. Plus, me likey the lady... 
I had a blast watching it! I loved it because it is a fun movies that does not take itself seriously. Heavy, brooding superhero movies remind me too much of 13 year old who think they are "mature." A superhero movie that is a fantasy suits me just fine.
I thought having Samuel Jackson as Nick Fury was too cool! Scarlett Johansson was awesome! She really came off as a believable bad@$$, and the totally destroyed some dresses and catsuits too.
It's got some cuss words, but I don't think my kids were scarred for life. My wife even thought it was pretty neat.
Ahahah he made a funny.. you see, because iron man wears a suit, and the action and humor in the iron man movie suits his tastes. hahaha
Just got back from it. I dug it, it was pretty entertaining. But seriously...
Awww yeah!

Scarlett Johansen...
...even the wife said so.
Terrence Howard was SO BAD as Rhody that I welcome the inconsistency. He was such a freakin' WIMP in the character that there was no way in heck he was going to work as War Machine. Cheadle rescues the character in this one. An upgrade that is very welcome in my opinion.
Otherwise, well done all around. Very entertaining.

I'm not debating the differences in actor quality, it's just a pet peeve when things like this happen
That really is the one thing that bugged be about the flick.

*sigh
I loved the movie
Can't imagine any circumstance in which I'd watch this thing, but it is a reminder of my 34th Law of Human Dignity and Self Respect, which states:
I will not eat food product with a movie tie-in.

Yes. Oh God, yes. Finest white girl I have ever seen. I first met her when she did Ghost World. We were both 17 then. Our magic slowed down a bit when I met my wife, oh the drasted wife.
Ok, we get it. How many more times are we going to quote all of the Scarlett J pics? It's enough now.
already printed them all out.
geez.

Funny comment, but seriously...blasphemy
A couple of things bugged me.
Scarlett as Black widow, I thought she was a Soviet spy villain & love interest from DD?
I can't buy Sgt Fury being Black, I love Samuel Jackson, but I can't stomach switching races or sexes for established characters. Just like I do not like Super Girl, Bat Girl and Spider Woman.
Glad they did not have Mandarin as the villain. Iron Man was always a weak comic, in my opinion.
Iron Man vs Hulk would be cool with the Hulk-buster suit.
The battle scenes were awesome as was Downey & Rourke.

black nick fury is from the ultimate universe. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultimate_Nick_Fury
i don't mind female versions of a character (though characters built from the ground up are always better), so long as they are treated as unique individuals. super girl's backstory is identical as superman's, so she's lame. (power girl, despite being an alternate universe version of super girl--i think--is a better character.)
