And so it begins, the summer movie season has launched with a serious bang from Iron Man. The live action superhero flick took the number 1 spot with a 104 million dollar take, from its Thursday launch to Sunday. It didn't take in as much as Spiderman 3 did last year (151 million) but it's clearly on it's way to turning a profit. I had a chance to see this one, and it's almost as good as Batman Begins, and that is some high praise. I certainly recommend this one. Check out the other top 10 below:
