Why would I take offense to someone not being able to form their own opinion? Zero offense taken, and Fastbilly will definitely see the movie of his choice even if I didn't care for it. I think the same goes for all the Racketboy members. My opinion is valued by some, disregarded by others. That said I try to be as honest and succinct as possible with my screening reviews.

Retrodude, Ive known Luke for four years and have overall similar movie tastes. I will still see it later, it just goes down further on my to watch list - which is fairly long.

Return to Oz is still one of the scariest movies ever made. Damn Mombie. She still gives me the willies. The Wheelers are some of my favorite enemies though. They are much cooler in the film than in the book. And Tiktok is THE army of Oz.

Luke, the first fourteen are on Gutenberg and in my opinion you can stop after that. If you want more, the first forty are decent, the more modern books are honestly, kinda halfassed.

I loved Return to Oz as a kid, and I completely forgot about that movie!

Iron Man 3 will be the best Iron Man, and possibly the best of Marvel's movies thus far.

I don't know, man. Captain America's gonna be pretty hard to top IMO.

You would put Capsicle above Avengers?

Actionwise, probably not. Storywise, most definitely. As far as single-character films go, I would say that Cap's my second favorite, right behind the original Superman with Christopher Reeve.

Ladies and Gentlemen, Place Your Bets!!!

I say the odds are 50:50 given that the majority find IM2 irrelevant. IRON-MAN was incredible and will be difficult to top. MARVEL'S THE AVENGERS has set expectations to an entirely new level for IM3 too.

Hmm well if I were ordering films related to the Avengers (ie. same actor for actor in Avengers), I would go:
Avengers > Iron Man > Captain America > Thor > Iron Man 2
