    A great show hide show

    This show,at first i hated it,but then i realized it wasnt that bad and then when i saew the season finale..i was amazed with it and the whole Makulauhn ring saga and the Madame Masque Saga.Since this is aimed at ages 6-12,it realy cant show alot of the stuff from the comics,like the Madame Masqeu`s eternal crazines(they touch on it in theb show,but in waterd down form).Pepper obviously needed to be toned down from her sophisticated woman figure from the comics.Rhodey is alot like Raven,exspecially with not trusting Gene.Gene,is...is not a very good friend,he`s not,he`s a power obsseded maniac(peaple dont use that word anymore!lol).

    Well,this seious is one Might great series and it definetly competes with Wolverine and the x-men.

    9.5 Superb

    Not a big fan of comic book heroes, but i LOVE this show. hide show

    I was very hesitant to watch this show. In fact, the first time I saw the commercial for Iron Man Armored Adventure, I thought it would be a show I would never bother watching. But I was forced to sit down and watch it when my nephew came over. And I found out that the show wasn't so bad after all. So I kept tuning into the show, and every episode kept me coming back for more. Now I am addicted to it. I have the season pass bought on iTunes for the complete first season, and I watch the episodes constantly on my iPod at work. The graphics and voice acting for this show are done beautifully. This is probably one of the better cartoons out there when it comes to these aspects. The plot for the story is also very well laid out. And there are some hilarious lines in the show too. There is really only one thing I can't stand about this show. Or one person, I should say. I can't stand Pepper's character! I think she is the most annoying character on the face of the planet. She has gotten better as the show goes on, and I know that she is probably going to be the love interest for Tony, but I still think she is annoying. There are a couple of confusing things about the plot. Like how Tony survived the plane crash. I know that the Armor saved him somehow, but it never really explains if Tony got his heart implant from the armor, or how it happened. This is a show I would recommend to anyone, whether you have read the comics, seen the live action movie, or are a first time Iron Man fan, like I am. I really hope that Nicktoons sticks with this story, adn that we will see many more Iron Man Armored Adventures episodes in the future.

    9 Superb

    The first thing that you have to get past is the fact that Tony Stark is a teenager in this series. Once you've accepted that, the show is quite enjoyable. (especially compared to the last Iron Man series back in the 90's *shudders*) hide show

    Like I said, the first thing you have to get past is Tony being a teen in this series. As such, they had to change his origin a little bit to coincide with this. First off, instead of suffering a severe heart injury during a kidnapping and being forced to build a destructive weapon, Tony is flying on a plane with his Father and the plane crashes. (we're expected to believe that Stane had something to do with this) Tony miraculously survives this, but he does get the aforementioned heart injury (good thing too, as it's one of the key components of his character).

    Anyway, since they removed the kidnapping, they didn't really need the character of Yinsen, so they removed him altogether. (pity, since he was such a good character in the film, but they may insert him later on)

    Other changes include Pepper's personality. If you're used to the movie version (a rather calm person who doesn't really stand out), Pepper's new hyperactive personality can be a bit jarring. (this does tone down a bit later on in the series, although that may be just me getting used to it) Anyway, she might take some getting used to, but she really is a solid character.

    They changed the Mandarin as well, but since his change is more or less part of the story, I'm going to let you find out on your own.

    Next up are the character designs. Having seen the character [villain] designs from the 90's series, the designs here are much improved. (can't understand why the Crimson Dynamo has white armor now, but whatever)

    The writing is solid, and so far, each episode has been fun to watch because of it.

    And finally, there's the theme song. I usually don't like very many theme songs that have lyrics, but this one rocks!

    All in all, I give it a 9 out of 10.

    1 Abysmal

    It was good in the pilot episode, but after that it just got really annoying. hide show

    I have to give this show some credit for having a cool theme song. But besides that; Iron Man: Armored Adventures is just plain stupid. I gave it a shot, and in the pilot, It was really good and interesting. But the more and more it went on, the more bored I became. Disagree if you want; but even Wolverine and the X men, which is mind draining, is better to watch than this dumb thing. The animation grinds on your nerves after a while, and you end up changing the channel after the first 20 minutes of the first episode. I tried watching another episode, and it was worse. And i'm not a super hero fanatic, but didn't they totally mess up Tony's age? I thought he was older than a teenager when he became Iron man. Nicktoons Network can market this show all they want, but it'll still be terrible.

    5.5 Mediocre

    Show about a young super hero hide show

    Iron Man Armoured Adventures replaced Chopsocky Chooks on the tv lineup and as i hate Chopsocky Chooks i hoped this move would be an improvement. Rather i got a Skyland like 3D animated show about some comic book hero who is a young boy who attends a school at a futuristic city. Tony Stark and his two friends have adventures in this futuristic metropolis of tall skyscrapers, maglev trains and hi tech equipment. In the first episode i felt rather confused as Stark's transformation into Iron Man felt not only unduly rushed (since i've never read the comic books i'm rating it against Spiderman's tv transformation which i thought was done well and realistically) but seemed hard to understand. The scenes seemed out of context with one another and i could barely understand just how he transformed. His friends are the typical two you'd expect. The girl will obviously be the love interest, like Kat from Dragon Booster, and the boy will undoubtedly be the loyal friend always sticking up for his mate. How nice and quaint. IMO this show is just another attempt at making an entertaining cartoon about a super hero, but quite frankly when compared with the original Spiderman series it pales in comparison, especially where music and graphics are concerned. Also Stark's motives seem slightly rebellious, and it would seem dangerous to portray a rebel set against the system as a hero.
