I Am Iron Man!

Summer and super hero movies always come at the same time. Who knows why, they just seem to go together like Batman and Robin. This summer is no exception. Tons of super hero movies are planned for a 2008 summer release, and the "Invincible Iron Man" has the honor of going first.

First, a little back story. Iron Man is actually Tony Stark, of Stark Enterprises. He is a wealthy man and anthropologist who, after being injured and forced by evil doers to build a devastating weapon, built a suit with amazing technology to defend mankind. This suit allows Tony to fly, shoot various kinds of projectile weapons, and enables him with super strength. Iron Man first appeared in Marvel's "Tales of Suspense" and has quickly become a comic book staple. Ok, enough back story.

The Iron Man movie, starring Robert Downy Jr., will be released May 2, and is bound to please comic book and movie fans alike. The preview looks amazing, and the story seems to remain true to the source material. The technology used in making the film works extremely well; it actually looks like Iron Man is flying next to fighter jets and crushing through walls. This movie could not have been made a few years ago due to technological limitations, so now fans are drooling over the movie they've been dying for someone to create. For more information check out the official website. It's here this May, don't miss it!
