    IRON MAN MAKES OVER $100 MILLION this weekend

    http://boxofficemojo.com/news/?id=2492&p=.htm

    What a difference a single movie can make. After weeks of humdrum pictures dragging it down, business came roaring back with the sensational debut of Iron Man, the first salvo of the summer movie season. While the weekend as a whole was down from last year when Spider-Man 3 hit a new opening milestone, it was the fourth best on record for the early May timeframe.

    Iron Man rocketed to an estimated $100.8 million on approximately 8,700 screens at 4,105 theaters for a $104.3 million tally including Thursday night previews. The reportedly $140 million-budgeted Marvel Comics adaptation had the second-highest grossing opening weekend ever for a non-sequel behind Spider-Man and the tenth highest overall. In terms of attendance, the start was slightly higher than X2: X-Men United's May 2 debut five years ago, and it soared past Marvel's average opening by over 60 percent.

      I guess this shows that quality and excitement can still sell?

      I haven't been to a movie since December... this is the first one I actually want to go check out.

              Didn't look all that great but I still want to see it. So far I haven't heard anyone say anything but good stuff about it.

                  I've seen it twice now, once on the opening day with the guys and again today with the family. It's such a geat movie. It's even just over 2 hours long, but there's really no parts in the movie that are boring, it flows along nicely with character development and storyline.

                  It's more of a serious movie than say Spiderman, but it has it has a couple of funny parts, but that's not a bad thing, serious is good.

                  Also, make sure that you stay in the theature until ALL of the credits roll for a little suprise I won't ruin it, but make sure you stay. I know both times I saw the movie, only a handful of people stuck around while the rest left and missed out on it.

                                                  That wasn't my point.

                                                  A movie doesn't do $100 million just because every other movie sucks.

                                                      Baby Mama was a horrible name but that movie is very funny. I was really surprised.

                                                      Just watched Iron Man a couple hours ago and thought it was a really good movie.

                                                          I havent been to the movies in a while, nothing really excited me that I wanted to and watch. But two movies I want to watch are harold and kumars shit ( with my drunken friends) and then ironman.

                                                          I think the last movie I was was pritate of the caribean 3

                                                              I'm glad it did its one of those rare movies worthy of returns that size

                                                              Especially compared to vapid watered-down summer fare like Superman Returns

                                                                                  I'm with you. I rarely go to the theater. I'm not going to pay $10 to sit in a cramped seat and hear people crunch on food and talk through a movie unless I really want to see it. So like you it is the first movie I have went to the theater and seen and in a long time. I think the last one was Superbad.

                                                                                                              Yeah, that's true, I just didn't wanna ruin it for everyone, ha ha ha. So those of you that already seen the movie, but didn't stay to watch after the credits, check out youtube, you'll find it.

                                                                                                                                  Usually, in a 2 hour+ movie, I can find 10-15 minutes (or more) that could be snipped out and not lose anything, but this movie seemed to use every second of that time to fill with good acting, great actions sequences, brilliant special effects and even some humor.

                                                                                                                                  It also had a pretty damn good soundtrack and some fun cameos. My favorite cameo was Stan Lee and my son's favorite was Tom Morello (he's a big Guitar Hero 3 fan).

                                                                                                                                                                      Usually, in a 2 hour+ movie, I can find 10-15 minutes (or more) that could be snipped out and not lose anything, but this movie seemed to use every second of that time to fill with good acting, great actions sequences, brilliant special effects and even some humor.

                                                                                                                                                                      It also had a pretty damn good soundtrack and some fun cameos. My favorite cameo was Stan Lee and my son's favorite was Tom Morello (he's a big Guitar Hero 3 fan).
