ravenswept19. Favorite movie based on a book/comic/etc.
Oh fuck you Movie Questionare, forcing me to pick just one?! Most of my DVD collection is made of book/comic/whatever based material!
Fine... Iron Man. There, are you happy?
Really, for the past decade, comic movies have had a great influx into theatres. Technology finally caught up to make their extradonary events possible, and Hollywood finally figured out that 1) people wanted to see more than just Batman and Superman, and 2) comics come to them almost already storyboarded for them.
Iron Man had the most fun with the concept and world. It had characters who were fun and funny to listen to (with realistic dialog that talked over each other), great pacing (something Batman Begins and it's speed editing didn't work out until the sequel), and amazing effects and costumes; I still wish I had an Iron Man suit.
The sequel didn't reach the fever pitch the first had, but it wasn't a dissappointment and at the least I know there's one more IM movie in the works.
