gamera_spinning on Iron Man
Went to see “Iron Man” on Saturday with the usual suspects on the Plaza, then had lunch at Baja 600. I could extol the many virtues of Iron Man, but why bother? If your friend’s list is already telling you how good it is, and the 94% aggregate review at Rotten Tomatoes doesn’t do it for, you’ll find out when it hits DVD. If you can see it on the big screen, I would highly recommend it.It made $104.2 million domestically since debuting Thursday night, and $96.7 million in 57 countries since it began opening Wednesday, putting its worldwide total at $201 million after just five days. It was the 10th biggest opening of all-time and the fourth biggest for a superhero movie. Among nonsequels, it came in behind only the first Spider-Man, which opened with $114.8 million.
Not surprisingly, Marvel made an announcement updating their feature film slate:
Iron Man 2 announced for a release on April 30, 2010, followed by three more movies for the summers of ‘10 and ‘11.
Matthew Vaughn’s Thor is set for a release on June 4, 2010.
The First Avenger: Captain America (the working title) will kick off the summer of 2011 on May 6, followed by the highly-anticipated and foreshadowed The Avengers scheduled for July 2011.
(Edgar Wright’s Ant-Man is also listed as being in development with no release date set.)
In a conference call this morning, Marvel Studios’ David Maisel said that Iron Man 2 will be used to introduce Thor. Regarding more “Hulk” movies, Maisel said “We definitely plan on continuing.” He added that development continues on Spider-Man 4. “I can’t give any other updates other than to say it’s in development and everybody’s excited about ‘Spider-Man 4,’” he said.
