Poll question: Should I see Iron Man or Indiana 4 tonight, or something else?
I'm single for the night - my wife is in Germany, my daughter is going to visit my parents and my in-laws are in the midwest. D&D is on hiatus, so I'm free.

What do you think is the best choice for me?

I don't really drink

3. Iron Man has been out longer, so you'll probably be able to get better seats.
I usually try to not go to movies on opening weekend. That being said, I'm such an Indy fan that I was there for the 12:01 show on Thursday. I've seen both movies.

6. Close one, but I'd have to go with Iron Man.
Funnier, nothing I really would have changed about it.

On the other hand, anything with Indiana Jones is good. Overall it was a fun movie, perfect for a summer popcorn movie. But there were a couple of goofy things I would have changed.

They're both similar types of movies that you don't have to take seriously, so you'll have a good time with either.

5. Haven't seen Indy yet, but Iron Man was awesome.
One of the best comic book movies I've ever seen. Perhaps second to only Spiderman 2. Downey was fantastic as Stark and Favreau did a great job directing. I'm looking forward to the sequels and the upcoming Avengers movie. Also, I hear Downey as Stark is going to make an appearance in this summer's Hulk movie.

7. I've only seen half of Indy, but so far Iron Man is clearly the superior movie

10. Go see Indy. You've already seen Iron Man twice. No, wait, that was me.
Go read a book.

12. Iron Man
From what I hear, Indy 4 won't be worth the ticket price. Iron Man, on the other hand, is thoroughly awesome and was totally worth the $9 my boyfriend spent on my ticket. :D

16. that commercial is creepy
I wonder if the movie will be good -

The first trailer for the movie "The Descent" I thought was awesome & terrifying. However, the 2nd trailer was so bad, and the reviews were pretty bad as well that I never bothered to see the movie.

15. I had a lot of fun watching Iron man
it was just about every boyhood fantasy wrapped into 90 minutes for me.

19. I haven't seen Indy 4, but Iron Man was absolutely terrific
Easily one of the best superhero movies ever, and great fun even for non-comic-book-fans. It has a blend of kick-ass action and humor that I haven't been able to fully appreciate since Robocop.
