Iron Man the Movie

Iron Man the movie, I know this is kind of late to be talking about it but, I just started writing and this was the last superhero movie I saw.

John Favreau did a great job directing, loved the fight scenes and the evolution of the armor. Robert Downey Jr. made an excellent Tony Stark, fun, witty, and sometimes almost serious.

The dark horse of this movie for me was Obidiah Stane played by Jeff Bridges. When did he get so big? He was barely recognizable bald too. He was ruthless, money hungry, and just plain evil. I loved it!

So with everyone now very aware of the last scene in the film with Nick Fury (Samuel Jackson), will they really introduce the Avengers? Team movies don't seem to be as engaging as the solo ones. Although I thought the X-Men films were ok, there is not enough focus on plot or character developement. If the Avengers were a smaller team it might work (don't kill me but I liked the Fantastic Four films). A team of four characters is a lot easier to handle than six or more.
