We’re eagerly anticipating Nolan’s second crack at bat… *ba-doom crash* and the addition of Heath and Aaron as well as the replacement of Mrs. Tom Cruise with Maggie Gyllenhaal are all on the side of awesome.

But will it stand up to the incumbent Comicbook movie champion of Iron Man? The DK cast and crew are all pretty excited, and these scenes give us a pretty amazing glimpse at what’s in store for us with our 12:01 tickets in hand! Who else is 12:01-ing it with us?

Clearly Marvel likes it when WE are hungry… which after another comic-movie-done-right makes Marvel Studios 2 for 2 so far. Punisher: War Journal later this year ought to round out the hat trick! The Acting was solid, the story was very fun and Abomination was not a disappointment. In fact, now we’ve had TWO prelude to Captain America moments this year… first Cap’s shield in Stark’s garage and now a reference to the WWII Super Soldier project.

Our Review should be ready in a few days, but first, let’s hear what YOU have to say about Leterrier’s attempt to fill Ang Lee’s shoes!

So, Ed Norton, William Hurt, Liv Tyler and Tim Roth? That sounds like a pretty amazing cast… even if they did already have a cast for the Hulk from Ang Lee’s 2003 go-round. Matt liked the first one, Nat is game for some Ed Norton, and we’re both TOTALLY jazzed about some Tony Stark action on Friday the 13… what about you?

Have you seen Kingdom of the Crystal Skull yet? Drop us your two cents on it! Here’s OUR review on the Indy movie that has caused a LOT of bumping of ideologies from CG vs. practical, Russian villains to the Sci-Fi bent, to an Indy in his 60’s! Give us your opinion!

~Matt + Nat

With 18 years between Last Crusade and Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, there is some apprehension from die-hard Indy fans on this one… but after seeing what the Big Three have to say about this installment, we’re pretty sold. What are your thoughts on this one? A long overdue chapter in the Indy series? Or a tacked-on cash grab happening too late to be good for a classic franchise? There’s definitely lots of opinion out there…

We’ve been talking about it in the comments of the Preview for a while, but Matt + Nat chime in with their Review of Iron Man. Matt is convinced this is the new yardstrick to which every comic movie must be measured, and Nat just can’t get enough of Robert Downey Jr.’s Performance as Tony Stark. All in all, it seems like Jon Favreau’s Iron Man managed to serve many masters… but let’s break it all down…

What did you think? Let us know if you think we’re full of it, or if you’re on board with our impressions of the first blockbuster of the Season!

~Matt + Nat

We weren’t really expecting much from this, mostly because the ads were pretty lacklustre… if you even saw them. Between an ad campaign that seemed confused from day one and the fact that the source material is actually just too old to have been raised on ourselves, we didn’t jump on this one right away, but it sure was a fun ride once we did. We’re quite sure that with high expectations, this would have been a miserable movie going experience… so it’s not great. Just better than expected with some equally surprising visuals. What did you think? Did you even bother?

~Matt + Nat

PS. Matt REALLY hated the monkey and the kid. Just sayin’

What do you get when you cross an all-star, Oscar nominated cast with a few tonnes of hulking metal? You get Jon Favreau’s IRON MAN! With some serious pressure to be a blockbuster, Marvel has all the makings of a winner as their first at bat as a production company. Matt’s more excited about this one than he has been about a movie in a while, and Nat can’t wait to see her some Robert Downey Jr. So really, everyone’s a winner on this one.

It’s a tricky thing, doing a remake of a Hollywood Classic… but with a legion of fans all his own, Rob Zombie has the cult-power to do Halloween Remake with a certain degree of comfort that his audience will come out and support it. We’re not specifically that audience, but we’re both pretty familiar with the Halloween mythos. Familiar enough to think that a “revisitation” of John Carpenter’s famous character treads on very hallowed ground indeed… what did we make of it? Have a look.
