A Quote by Robert Downey, Jr.

I thought that the grounded-ish nature of the first Iron Man and where I think the success of it was based was I think people got excited that this was a technologically possible occurrence; and didn't Obama order an Iron Man?

My favorite movie is 'Iron Man.' I tell people that I think it's just as good as 'Dark Knight,' if not better, and people tell me I'm crazy. I really like 'Iron Man.'

Taylor Lautner

I don't think I'm going to go into Iron Man. I mean, I can't say that I won't go into something like an Iron Man franchise.

Katie Aselton

I'm not sure that 'Iron Man' is a superhero movie. I think towards the end of the movie, Iron Man pretends to be a superhero - he's entertained by that notion. I think 'X-Men' is a sci-fi movie.

Kevin Feige

But, did the Divinity [of Christ] suffer? [...] The holy fathers explained this point through the aforementioned clear example of the red-hot iron, it is the analogy equated for the Divine Nature which became united with the human nature. They explained that when the blacksmith strikes the red-hot iron, the hammer is actually striking both the iron and the fire united with it. The iron alone bends (suffers) whilst the fire is untouched though it bends with the iron.

'Iron Man' and 'Iron Man 2' are as Jon Favreau films as you can see.

Kevin Feige

The similarity between Iron Man and Green Lantern is, unlike Superman or any of the X-Men or Spider-Man, anyone can be Green Lantern or Iron Man. All you need is the ring or the suit.

Marc Guggenheim

There would be no Marvel without 'Swingers'; there would be no Jon Favreau directing 'Iron Man,' no Robert Downey Jr. playing Iron Man; no 'Avengers.'

Doug Liman

There was a day on the set of Iron Man where I said, "I remember some of this stuff. I definitely had some Iron Man books. But, S.H.I.E.L.D. is a little bit of a weak spot for me."

Clark Gregg

I'm ready to see that new RZA movie [The Man With The Iron Fists] too, it looks kind of Tarantino-ish.

Sean Price

I never thought we'd live in an age where we'd get to 2008's 'Iron Man,' which I think is a perfect movie.

Rob Liefeld

One of the great things about the 'Iron Man' franchise is that they employ fascinating actors who don't necessarily do action movies. Before 'Iron Man' you didn't associate Robert Downey, Jr. and Gwyneth Paltrow with those kinds of films. There's an emphasis on repartee and wit.

Rebecca Hall

Iron sharpens iron, and that's one man getting another guy ready to play.

Dan Quinn

I was not in 'Iron Man 2,' but I take a daily iron supplement.

Dana Carvey

The earth yields up her stores, of every ill The instigators; iron, foe to man, And gold, than iron deadlier.

Ovid

I remember watching the 'Iron Man' cartoons when I was younger. I remember reading the origin stories and some of the Silver Age stuff, and I read 'The Avengers' - 'The Defenders' and then 'The Avengers' - and that sort of brought me into 'Iron Man.'
