Looks like this was his first time directing a big budget summer action movie. Congratulations to him.
Looks like Marvel knows how to get their stuff made right.

...and I haven't enjoyed R. Downey Jr. as much since his swansong "Less Than Zero".
The Pheonix ariseth!
Yes!!!
I was amazed to see that Favreau had been chosen for this project. Didn't know until his name flashed by on the closing credits.
There was much hand-ringing in the investment community about Marvel's decision to go it alone and set up their own production studio, in effect. Weren't they doing everything previously through Sony?
Their ability to choose talent, their ability to produce scripts, the production savvy, everything was thrown into doubt.
We'll they layed ace's on the table with this project. The casting was superb, the script was slick and entertaining, the special effects and production values top-notched.
We'll see if they can follow-though on the Hulk in a few weeks. The first attempt, directed by Ang Lee, should have been titled "The Abominable Hulk." What a mish-mash of non-sense, with Lee himself acting as the computer-rendered Hulk character. Marvel is taking another crack at it themselves. I am all anticipation.
