There is no debating that Robert Downey Jr. has led and interesting and rocky life. Robert Fure takes a look at his rise, fall, return, and shows us all while Robert Downey Jr. deserves a new shot.

Robert Fure is fed up with crappy comic adaptations. Can Iron Man lead the way to a new age of awesome?

Marvel has taken over the Arclight Hollywood lobby with pure awesome!

This was the weekend of Iron Man, all right. It was a dominant, crushing victory at the box office for the latest Marvel superhero success. It made not $80 million, not $90 million — but $100 million dollars!!!

Welcome to FSR’s newest weekly feature in which I break down the good, the bad, and the ugly of what Hollywood has to offer.

Robert Fure was lucky enough to find himself in a packed theater catching an elusive early glimpse of one of the summer’s most anticipated films: Iron Man. Take an in-depth look into one of summer’s most promising films.

I know that I said on Friday that our Officially Cool week of Iron Man was over, but this is something that just couldn’t be passed up.

The weekend is here. That means it’s time to sit back, relax and enjoy the Best of the Rejects.

The buzz behind Iron Man has created the perfect storm of media hype leading into the summer season. For some, the film simply cannot live up to the hype, but that’s only reserved for sci-fi nerds who have downloaded every scrap of leaked footage and hi-res photo onto their computer. For the casual viewer, the film delivers exactly what the trailer promises.

One of Tony Stark’s many conquests in the film Iron Man is a nosey, but hot reporter from Vanity Fair, played by the very sexy Leslie Bibb. In her honor, we’ve scoured the web for the hottest shots of this leggy blonde.

For those who are still mourning over the last couple of failed Marvel comic book adaptations (the disappointing Spider-man 3, the mediocre Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer and the atrocious Ghost Rider), fear not.

Need a date movie? A popcorn flick? A thriller? We’ve got you covered — and we’ve got you in and out faster than you can say “Hey, those Film School Rejects really know what they are talkin’ about…”

We’ve seen some awesome stuff this week, including some great Iron Man collectibles and some awesome art work, but by far one of the coolest things about Iron Man has been the trailer. So cool, in fact, that The Onion did a mock story about it and the folks at Addictive TV have decided to give it a little remix.

When we first started covering the adaptation of Stephenie Meyer’s sensational novel, Twilight, less than a week ago, we definitely did not realize how much interest it was going to generate. We also didn’t realise exactly how many articles we gonna crop up as soon as we started monitoring it!

Kevin needs to hose down the Magical Studio in the Sky after Neil’s excitement for Iron Man. Then they both rant about Dr. McDreamy in Made of Honor. That’s how we roll when we kick off the summer movie season.

With the release this weekend of Marvel Studio’s Iron Man I can be certain of two things: Comic book movies are here to stay and Iron Man is among the best of them. Thus, it is time to see just how well it stacks up.

It’s time to take a break from playing Grand Theft Auto 4 to enjoy the Reject Report’s predictions for the official kickoff of the summer blockbuster movie season.

There are still about 3 hours left before moviegoers on the east coast start filing into the first public screenings of Iron Man, but already the talk from producers and insiders has been diverted to what is next.

You can keep your Iron Man, throw away all that hype about The Dark Knight and forget Speed Racer, that’s for sure. The public has spoken and according to AOL Moviefone’s Summer Movie Poll, what the public wants this summer is sex, and they want it bad.

Tony Stark ain’t like other superheroes. He’s a drunk, and that’s what makes him so fun. So if Tony Stark can fly around in a metal suit to fight crime while he’s drunk, why can’t you sit in a theater and watch Tony Stark fly around in a metal suit to fight crime while you’re drunk. Here are some pointers.

This could very well be the coolest and most expensive item featured this week as part of our Officially Cool Iron Man Week.

The summer movie season is finally here. And when it comes to the box office, there is no one better than our John Cairns and The Reject Report. In this special edition, he makes some bold predictions about this year’s summer box office results.

As summer quickly approaches, soon the sun will be out in full force and it’ll be time to whip out a pair of sunglasses and face the world.

Another day, another round of cool Iron Man stuff. This time, I have decided that in order to keep things fresh, I would stray away from the memorabilia and toys and bring you some awesome artwork.

As you found out yesterday, it is Iron Man week here on the Officially Cool column. Therefore, we are dropping 5 straight days of cool Iron Man gear on you in anticipation of the release of the big dawg this Friday, an event that signals the official start to the 2008 Summer Movie Season.

Every year we go through it: What are your most anticipated movies of summer? Which movies will make the most money? What will be the biggest flop? I can’t even begin to think of the infinite variations that we’ve seen of the pre-Summer movie lists. So this year, we are going to do something a little different, but not too far off the beaten path. We’ve set out to give you a guidebook to Summer Movie Season 2008: The 15 Movies that you should not miss, no matter what.

It is Iron Man week here at Film School Rejects. So just in case you haven’t yet seen enough Iron Man stuff on this or every other site on the web, we are going to give you five straight days of awesome gear that will appeal to your geeky side.

I get the feeling that Jon Favreau knew going into the production of Iron Man that this was going to be a very big, very MTV generation flick, because he certainly shot a lot of video while on set.

After a botched flight to Amsterdam, Kevin and Neil are sent to Guantanamo Bay… then escape back to the Magical Studio in the Sky.

The monster issue that is the Entertainment Weekly 2008 Summer Movie Preview is on newsstands and in mailboxes everywhere. Find out why we just can’t quit this damn thing.
