Iron Man Iron Man BO thread

[Boom]

$320 million means it beats Transformers. Which after Don Murphy opened his big, fat, ugly mouth I really want to happen.

I would laugh uncontrollably if that happened. In fact, I'm going to help the cause and see Iron Man tomorrow .

**** you, Murphy.

 

[TheVileOne]

C'mon guys, let's see Iron Man some more in the dollar theatres so it will smash the hopes and dreams of Don Murphy .

 

[fu manchu]

dollar theater...haven't gone there in awhile, but for iron man i think its worth it!

I wish I can help making it happen, but I've seen IM twice and I really don't have the time to see a movie in theatre, including IM. And despite the fact that I like TF, I hope IM will beat it just to see Murphy shut his big, fat mouth.

Dollar theatres still exist? We got a five dollar theatre over here.

Dollar theatres still exist? We got a five dollar theatre over here.

We have a $1.50 theater here.

Same here, right now the closest one to me is currently playing Hulk, but not Iron Man, Iron Man is still playing at one of our largest 1st run theaters, AMC 30, only 2 showings a day however.

 

[C. Lee]

Iron Man is on at the $1.50 theater and one of the first run ones here.

 

[TheVileOne]

That's good. $320 million is highly unlikely at this point, but I definitely hope it happens.

What did Murphy say?

 

[C. Lee]

What did Murphy say?

Stop, or I will shoot....

 

[Upset Spideyfan]

Is there a directory for these dollar theaters. I'd like to see the movie again this friday but its pretty much playing nowhere in my area (NYC) as far as I can see.

 

[Heretic]

I dont know what Don Murphy said either, but if was in any way calling Transformers a better film than Iron Man...or even Howard The Duck...then he is full of crap.

 

[Ironfan72]

Murphy pretty much trashed Marvel, Jon Favreau and everything & everyone involved with the production, saying it would fail, that Favreau was a hack, he was brutal.
It seemed he couldn't go a week without opening his mouth leading up to the release, but once the movie released and if looked like a blockbuster, he got quite, he never apoligized for his comments that I'm aware of.
For some reason, Murphy has a really high opinion of himself and his ability to produce movies, and his standing in Hollywood.

Yeah, I was mistaken, here in Columbus, it's at first run and dollar theaters, couple friends and myself are seeing it again this weekend, might be the last time on the big screen that I will see it before it hits DVD in September.

Wow! What was his reasons for saying that? Did he want to produce IM?

[TheVileOne]

If my math is right . . . and it always is . . . Iron Man should cross about $316 million before this upcoming weekend.

Also, the even bigger insult is when the rumors about Favreau and Iron Man 2 were going on. He called Favreau a cry baby, and started insulting him.

Also, Don Murphy was associated with Iron Man as the producer when it was over at New Line. Ultimately it left New Line and went back to Marvel. Murphy was no longer involved. But after Favreau got hired, Murphy trashed Favreau and the project.

Now Murphy thinks he is all big and bad because of Transformers. When Favreau said he wasn't sure if they could make the suggested release date by 2010. Murphy was saying trash like, "Oh two years is plenty of time to do it, we are doing Transformers in two years in 2009."

Iron Man surpassing Transformers somehow would be some icing on the cake.

Mr. Murphy was the producer for Iron Man when the rights were with New Line, but the film stalled after rumored star Tom Cruise read the script and turned the role down, saying it wouldn't be any good and wanted nothing to do with the film.
At that time, Nick Cassavetes had been hired to direct, Grough & Miller (Smallville) had written the script and New Line greenlit the film for production, but for some reason as soon as it started in stopped and a few months later Marvel took control of the property and soon hired writers and Jon Favreau to direct.
Murphy took it very hard, possibly that he wasn't hired by Marvel to produce the new film at Marvel/Paramount, so naturally, instead of saying "oh well" and moving on Murphy started a smear campaign on his website, he got more courage after the success of Transformers, which he produced, unfortunatly Iron Man succeded and we haven't heard much since.

Don't laugh at me!

 

[TheVileOne]

And we did hear from Murphy again. When the Favreau/Iron Man 2 rumors started, Murphy trashed Favreau and Marvel again.

hi everyone!

I am a big iron man fan, it gave my faith back into american movies. I wasn.t expecting much when I went to see it, RDJ stole the show! My friends who didn't know RDJ was like , I like the star of this movie.... Any way, I just saw TDK last night, it was dark and intense but good while IM was fun and entertaining. I rate both movie the best comic adaption to date because of its acting and was grounded. Batmen begins was boring while TDK was a way better movie.

 

[nimrod]

Don't laugh at me!

Don't be like that.

The part about crying to sleep gets me everytime. t:

Yeah, both are good movies.
It's just too bad that some Bat fans go overboard.

Successful Comic book movies are always welcome.
