    Saw it today. It was as fucking awesome as I expected it to be. The final fight scene made me think of Terminator Tactical Dreadnought Armoured Space Marines throwing down. Gratuitous Scarlett Johannsen stripping was very welcome for the few seconds and shots shown.

    Nice crater at the end there...

    Not really epic, but it was a good sequel. Gwneth and Robert Downey Jr. as always have incredibly funny dialogues, it's not forced, but seem natural.

    I still think Terrence Howard would have been better as War Machine, and Black Widow should have been given more lines. I was expecting to see S.H.I.E.L.D.'s large flying aircraft carrier/base, but I guess it's not yet built or not considered realistic in the film.

    Stay after the credits, and you'll see the...

    the Mjolnir. I guess the god of thunder fell from Asgard.

    Might want to clear out your colors there, Aaltwal.

    As for the movie: I saw it on Friday, and absolutely loved it. I can't really decide if it's better than the original or not, but it's really close.

    Saw this last night, and was really impressed. Great sequel, and I loved that they brought some of the comic-flare to life. Such as Tony getting completely smashed and fighting in the Iron Man suit.

    Nice little Captain America reference, and the ending got me super hyped for November 2011. THOR! In New Mexico, the Land of God Damn Enchantment!

    I just came from the theater, and it was amazing! I really do love the way Downy plays Stark. And the action scenes rocked. The Captain America and Thor references made me laugh.

    Not really adding anything that hasn't been said, but, yeah...

    I loved it, the villain was better than in the first movie, even though it was kind of annoying that he always deactivated his helmet while fighting Iron Man and Warmachine.

    The action was great, much better fights, the references that I caught (which might not be many, seeing that I don't know much about comics, I only caught the Captain America shield and the Avengers reference) were entertaining but the Hammer at the end was kind of disappointing.

    The credits were long and it was boring to sit through that for a two second shot of a hammer in a crater, that could have been handled better.

    Is Iron Man III going to come out before or after the Avengers Movie?

    I've heard that Iron Man III is going to come out after the Avengers. In 2011 they are going to release Thor and the Captain America movie. 2012 is going to be Avengers, so I guess Iron Man III is coming out in 2013? Or maybe just late 2012
