neutral · AI labelView post →On this rewatch of Shin Godzilla, I came to appreciate how prominent a role director Shinya Tsukamoto (Tetsuo: The Iron Man) plays. Having the master of body horror ponder Godzilla's physical mutations and spiritual implications throughout the film adds tremendously to the bureaucratic ensemble.
neutral · AI labelView post →Movie dates are terrible in the getting to know you phase but also realizing the two movie dates I have had were No Country For Old Men and Tetsuo: The Iron Man
neutral · AI labelView post →I have not felt this way about a superhero movie trailer since the Iron Man 1 trailer dropped, no lie. This gave me the butterflies in my stomach like the first time I watched the Reeve movies. I haven't had hope in a Superman movie like this in a long, long time.
neutral · AI labelView post →watching Tetsuo the Iron Man. guessing this is like a Japanese superhero movie? sounds fun
neutral · AI labelView post →. “Golden Dome” is what happens when a man with no understanding of war, tech, or reality watches one Marvel movie and decides he’s Iron Man with executive power. .
neutral · AI labelView post →I also blame the Iron Man movie and Robert Downey Jnr for a lot of the bullshit modern tech bro billionaires get up to. He made Tony Stark cool, whereas the comics had landed on him as a well-meaning but dangerous sociopath. Every tech bro thinks they're Downey's Iron Man. Not the comics version.
neutral · AI labelView post →I don't want to open up a Snyder debate, but it's still wild to me that in only the *second* Superman film outing in his franchise, they decided to adapt the Doomsday/Death of Superman arc! That would be like doing Iron Man, and then killing Tony Stark off by the end of Iron Man 2 before Avengers!
neutral · AI labelView post →very funny imagining a teenager 60 years from now going back to watch an old movie and picking Iron Man and getting to the part at the white house and going hey wait a second was that hitler in that cameo
neutral · AI labelView post →Also cgi him out of that Iron Man movie. Just admit we're all very embarrassed about that.
neutral · AI labelView post →Kevin Feige indicates that iconic Marvel characters, like Iron Man & Captain America, will eventually be recast “[They're now] searching for a new James Bond. David Corenswet is the new Superman — he was awesome. That will always be the case” (Source: variety.com/2025/film/ne...)
neutral · AI labelView post →It's a good thing that MCU reboot will probably focus on the X-Men first, because I damn sure wouldn't want to be the one trying to sell a Captain America or Iron Man movie in all this.
neutral · AI labelView post →Iron Man 3 is a freakin' hoot. I really like this movie. (someone chose it for Overhated!)
positive · AI labelView post →I'm trying to decide which films have the least reason to exist: 1) THE HUNT FOR GOLLUM; 2) live-action Disney remakes of films done perfectly the first time; 3) any additional superhero film after we've had 110+ (Google it) since IRON MAN came out during the Obama administration.
neutral · AI labelView post →No film has done more to singlehandedly usher in the end of the human race than IRON MAN 2
neutral · AI labelView post →Iron Man 3 is one of the biggest “I didn’t know I was supposed to be mad at this movie” moments for me.
neutral · AI labelView post →Yeah this is also a huge element. Captain America: The First Avenger is a very earnest film so the character is very earnest. Thor was a melodrama so the character is melodramatic. Iron Man was a bombastic action comedy so Stark is loud and sarcastic. There’s contrast kept in between everyone
neutral · AI labelView post →Guy who has only seen Iron Man, watching his second movie, the passion of the Christ: “getting some serious iron man vibes from this one”
neutral · AI labelView post →Society if Speed Racer was the big hit movie of 2008 instead of Iron Man.
neutral · AI labelView post →I also appreciate it looking really weird and awkward because that’s more artistically interesting than a perfectly mediocre movie. Give me Madame Webb over Iron Man 2 any day of the week baby, Madame Webb gets blinded by a firework at the Pepsi Factory that’s good filmmaking.
positive · AI labelView post →All my friends/oomfie's WOLs and OCs are canon in my WOL lore in the way that Iron Man shows up in a Spider-Man movie or they're in the background like it's a Where's Waldo page
neutral · AI labelView post →There's one in Iron Man ffs, the movie that kicked off the pop culture juggernaut of the MCU that still wheezingly rumbles on to this day. I was there, I *remember*.
neutral · AI labelView post →it's awesome that video games as a medium is directed by people with the tastes of that one guy in class who refuses to watch any film made before Iron Man
neutral · AI labelView post →Thinking about how much I love Tetsuo: The Iron Man again. Comfort food made of metal shot on expired black and white arial film. Sensual, textured, homoerotic. A shoot that went so poorly that near the end it was two people. You can smell the exhaustion in the work like an after hours gymnasium.
neutral · AI labelView post →Sorry I’m being punchy on bluesky, it’s just that I read a headline about how this summer may finally be the referendum on the franchise film monopoly and I was like oh great, just in time, I graduated film school 2 months after IRON MAN came out and it only took 18 years
neutral · AI labelView post →A lot of times I will often say this movie is hardwired into my brain. Happy 36 years to Tetsuo: The Iron Man.
neutral · AI labelView post →Watched Tetsuo: the Iron Man I guess it answers the question "can a film be scored entirely using misophonia triggers?"
neutral · AI labelView post →It's interesting to go back and watch Iron Man now, a nice fun uncomplicated movie that punches above its weight, unburdened by any future expectations beyond *maybe* Iron Man 2. You didn't even need a bachelor's in Marvel Studies to enjoy it, never mind the Ph.D. that this will require
positive · AI labelView post →Iron Man (2008) is a 9/11 movie.
neutral · AI labelView post →Iron Man was such a perfect movie and RDJ was just the perfect actor for that role.
positive · AI labelView post →As @geneha.bsky.social pointed out, Adi’s Iron Man came out 4 years before the first film. The image of Iron Man the world has come to know was born here.
neutral · AI labelView post →18 years ago today, ‘IRON MAN’ released in theaters. The first ever #MCU film.
neutral · AI labelView post →‘IRON MAN 3’ is a Christmas film.
neutral · AI labelView post →It's weird to me how people act like Supergirl is some early death knell for the DCU when the MCU this early on released Iron Man 2, which was an abomination that made me vomit out every orifice my body and it survived. I think DC can survive a film that, from what I'm aware, is just kinda mid.
negative · AI labelView post →@adigranov.bsky.social notes it's 20 years since Iron Man: Extremis came out, which largely inspired the first MCU movie, Iron Man. I'm posting this comparison w my 21 yr old Iron Man cover to make clear how brilliant Adi's Iron Man re-design was: more elegant and better articulated. Groundbreaking!
neutral · AI labelView post →Iron Man 1/6 scale, all lit up! Super fancy and ready to face Avengers movie Loki
neutral · AI labelView post →Is 'Iron Man 3' is a Christmas movie? 🤔 #MCU
neutral · AI labelView post →Iron Man 1 is maybe the most important film of the George W. Bush administration
positive · AI labelView post →I just had the horrifying realization that people who were born on the day the first Iron Man movie opened in theaters have been legal adults for like a week now.
neutral · AI labelView post →Confession: other than the original Iron Man (which I got free tix for), I had not seen a single MCU film until the last few weeks when the family started watching them in order. Just got through Thor.
neutral · AI labelView post →Been rewatching my way through the MCU. We really have to add “Iron Man 3”, the best movie in the MCU not directed by James Gunn, to the list of movies so good that that they broke people’s brains, and therefore culture.
positive · AI labelView post →After playing Iron Man for more than a decade in several blockbusters, Robert Downey Jr. is returning to the Marvel cinematic universe as the villain Victor von Doom in two upcoming movies.
neutral · AI labelView post →increasingly convinced the RDJ Iron Man film is one of the single most socially damaging pieces of media to ever exist
negative · AI labelView post →Iron Man 3 isn't exactly my favorite MCU film, but to this day I feel the ending is misunderstood. Him destroying the suits isn't him quitting being Iron Man. Those suits don't represent Iron Man... They represent his paranoia. That's why the suits also break down easily. They were a rush job.
neutral · AI labelView post →Iron Man 3 is a Christmas movie
neutral · AI labelView post →With each passing day, Iron Man 2 gets harder and harder to rewatch. It's like Hitler having a cameo in a Marx Brothers movie.
negative · AI labelView post →The live-action Akira film rights have reverted from Warner back to Kodansha. The writers & directors behind Blade, Rogue One, Iron Man, Menace II Society, Harry Potter, & Thor: Ragnarok have tried to adapt the manga but none succeeded.
neutral · AI labelView post →Everyone acting like Supergirl is gonna kill the DCU before it takes off forgot about 2008. Literally a month after Iron Man we got The Incredible Hulk. While not a bad film, the quality between the two was STARK! Calm the fuck down.
neutral · AI labelView post →Starting the Christmas movie rotation with Iron Man 3
neutral · AI labelView post →The Melania movie should've ended with Ghislaine Maxwell showing up at the end like Nick Fury in Iron Man to tell her that she's assembling a team.
neutral · AI labelView post →Crank 2 is one of the only American movies that comes close to capturing the insanity of a Story of Ricky or Tetsuo the Iron Man. You know that wild first ten minutes of Miike’s DOA before the film slows waaaayyy down? That’s this entire movie.
neutral · AI labelView post →Then the same year Bush is gone and Obama is POTUS, we get the first actual "superhero fights not-Al-Qaeda" movie in 'IRON MAN' and it launches the biggest movie series that's ever happened, is still going, and just had the new biggest movie ever this Summer.
positive · AI labelView post →"yes, the Iron Man/Dr. Doom thing we're doing in the movies was totally planned from the beginning, and not just a last minute thing we decided upon to keep from having a flop Avengers film"
neutral · AI labelView post →Iron Man, for Iron Man 2 movie licensing. I did 2 versions of every pose, one with the circle arc reactor and one with the triangle arc reactor. Spoiler: He switches to the triangle during the movie.
neutral · AI labelView post →Iron Man 3 = Christmas Movie
neutral · AI labelView post →God, I just had the realisation that Iron Man was 18 years ago. Like, superheroes and shared universes and films that serve as trailers for the next film have just been the default genre of movie for more than half my life. No wonder I feel so tired of it all...
negative · AI labelView post →The movie Chef (2014) directed and written by Jon Favreau is incredibly fucking funny when you remember the movie released right after Iron Man 3
neutral · AI labelView post →I just seen the film. Easily the best Tom Holland Spider-Man film. No "buts" or "ands". This is the most centric Spider-Man film Tom has ever gotten. I even forgot he had connections with Iron Man. So yeah, he is no longer an Iron Man jr. or whatever.
positive · AI labelView post →17 years ago today, ‘IRON MAN’ released in theaters. The first ever #MCU film.
