Iron Man (Nearly) Invincible At The Box Office  |
|
 "B-list superhero"?
"Grand Theft Auto IV"?
I say to you: "HA!"
Iron Man had the 10th biggest box office opening weekend, EVER (and that's not even including the Thursday sneak preview showings). It topped $100 million on this past weekend.
It kicked butt on every level. Audiences loved it, Rotten Tomatoes has it 94% positive and the per screen average was over $24,000 (which means you can't attribute the boffo box office to just the fact it was released on a gazillion screens).
In addition it's opening weeked grosses were double that of both Batman Begins and Superman Returns, plus it earned more than Spider-Man 2 and the first two X-Men movies on their opening weekends.
Maybe the next time I tell you a movie is going to be awesome month after month after month prior to its release, you'll pay attention, eh?:-)

1.  robsbrooklyngirl (3079) | 2 years ago |  I am not surprised. I saw this movie & it was excellent. Robert Downey Jr. was great as the character Tony Stark. In fact if they would have picked any other actor to play the part I don't think it would have been nearly as good. As soon as it comes out on DVD I plan on buying it, yes it was that good LOL.

| 4. cendartree (18) | 2 years ago | SUPEROIR TECHNOLOGY! Sorry, but that was Capcom IM finishing saying. Love the pic for this Rant! Saw it three times this weekend and I live in the Derby city. My wife whom knows nothing about IM loved it and said she can't wait for the sequel. Kahless, as much as I love IM, I believe Speed Racer will hold his own to hold off IM for first next week with 150mil over the next weekend. IM will make 70mil next week. | |

| 5. krazymonk (11) | 2 years ago | let's all watch iron man again! at the cinema... make it make 150 million dollars next week...
For me, I won't watch it again just to boost the cume but will watch it again because it's a fantastic film. And about Stallone and Driven, I agree....what was the point.:o)

| 6. bailian (2) | 2 years ago | I think the real weak link in May could be Prince Caspian.
it will do well but under`100 million in its debut.
just a thought. | |

|
| vaibhavsawke (637) | 2 years ago | Narnia can't hold infront of IM and speedracer also can't do either | |

7. redindian85 (12)  | 2 years ago | One thing I havnt heard mentioned about Iron Man is how much of a Patriotic film it is.
They were smart to keep the name of the terrorist group obscure and not pin them down to a country.
Man that script was tight!!!
And I loved how they used cell phones in the film.
Very clever.

|
|
| vaibhavsawke (637) | 2 years ago | You are right.
The script was the soul of its success. | |
