He's one of my favourite actors too. American History X was the first movie I saw him in - amazing. I then made sure I saw all the others, including the little known Death To Spanky, which I actually really enjoyed.

The only film of his I haven't seen is The Painted Veil, and we're seeing that this week. Again, looks awesome.

Spiderman was my favourite comic as a kid and I loved the first two movies, haven't seen the second.

The Chesboy LOVED Iron Man - he was counting down the days till it opened. I haven't seen it yet - I work 9-10 hours a day and can't stay up past 9pm because of the succubus, so it'll have to be a weekender for me!

An islamo(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*) wearing an iron suit while riding a camel would be a little unbelievable. Unless he was riding an Israeli bus and the suit doubled as a suicide vest....

You're thinking of Guardian.

The character concept was actually kinda cool, but the character himself was boring.

A word for the wise. Do not spend your money on the new Iron Man game.

They weren't always that bad. I remember the original NES used to have a few decent games based on movies or TV shows...
It's just nowadays there isn't a lot of creativity on game structure. You know every game based on a movie or TV show will be that Tomb Raider engine (notable exceptions: The Office PC game looks like a cheap game downloaded off Yahoo and the Desperate Housewives PC game looks like a Sims clone- would be kind of funny if that one was Tomb Raider-style, wouldn't it?)

Now movies and shows based on video games- that has always been a bad idea!
