Everyone’s getting all excited about the imminent release of Iron Man 2. The movie is one of the most hotly anticipated sequels in recent years since the first movie was such a big hit.
According to various tracking surveys, there is a strong chance that Iron Man 2 could go past the $158.4 million opening record set by the Dark Knight.
The growing buzz from viewers is being largely attributed to star Robert Downey Jr. A lot of women, especially those with ages from their 20s to 30s are very interested in seeing Downey in the big screen once again. Also, males are expected to troop to the theaters in order to watch Iron Man and the various action sequences promised by the movie. Even the demographic that is least interested in the movie, the teen girls, are showing some rumblings of interest, too.
If Iron Man’s record is any indication then the sequel is going to explode in a big way. The original movie had a $98.6 million opening and eventually grossed $318.4 million. With an international gross of $266.7 million, the movie’s worldwide take was $585.1 million.
As for me, I am definitely going to watch this. This is the movie that will finally make me go to a theater again this year.
I think Iron Man 2 will get close but I don’t think it will beat The Dark Knight’s record. The reason being is that there were a lot of people who went to watch The Dark Knight who probably wouldn’t have because of the untimely death of Heath Ledger which swelled its opening weekend’s takings. Even so, I can’t wait for Iron Man 2 either.
iron man 2 the best movie 😀 is very nice….thx
