    this series was certainly not the best in theline up but it was entierly bad iether.this show had so much potential butfailed to meet expectations.the cg animation seemed like a slightly better version than any cgi found in the 90s.the stories were always intriguing but seemed lacking every time.i was upset to hear wolverine and the xmen was canceled but this got another season.
  • Not a big fan of comic book heroes, but i LOVE this 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.moreless
  • While there are a few problems, Iron Man: Armored Adventures packs a punch from start to finish.

    Nick has been doing terrible lately, with all of it's terrible shows. But the thing I liked was that Nicktoons was the one that was keeping up with the good shows. So after Nicktoons kept on advertising this show, I decided to take a look at it. While I can't say the show was perfect, it is a very enjoyable experience to look at. Iron Man: Armored Adventures follows the life of a boy named Tony Stark, and his friends, Pepper and Jim in their teen lives. While I can't say the premise is great, the way the plot is executed is. The characters aren't great, but they are developed in a well-known matter. The artwork does look pretty bad, but the animation flows very nicely and all the lip syncs are perfectly matched. The voices also fit the character's personalities very well. The action is also great and is very well executed. Most of the plots themselves are very interesting and executed great as well. There are two problems I have with this show, though. One would have to be Pepper. She is really annoying and is pretty much useless to the team. Another problem I have is some of the villains themselves. While most of them are good, some of them come off as uninspired and lame.

    There are some problems with this show, but that does not stop from being a huge success. The show is not the best thing to come to Nick, but it is a very good show to watch overall.

    Presentation: 8/10 The premise is not the best thing ever, but the inspired plots make up for that.

    Animation: 7/10 While I must say it looks rather ugly, it does flow very nice.

    Sound: 9.5/10 Sounds work very well, and the lip syncs are perfectly on cue.

    Entertainment: 8.5/10 The action itself is very breath taking, although some of the characters kind of ruin it.

    Lasting Appeal: 9/10 While this show is inferior to "Avatar: The Last Airbender", "Iron Man: Armored Adventures" is definitely worth a look. FINAL SCORE: 8.5/10 Nicemoreless
  • Has potential but may upset long time fans of the franchise

    Whether your a comic book geek or not yo've seen the live action Iron Man movie. EVERYONE has seen that movie it spent a couple of weeks at number one in the box office, completly destroyed the Speed Racer film, brought in major bucks, and was critcally aclaimed. Let's face it: we love the millionaire weapons techtican, Tony Stark and the suit he created to save himself from captivity. It only makes sense that Marvel Comics would turn Iorn Man into a TV series. This had been attempted in the 90s but many fans thought that the campy season one ruined the whole thing, so a totally new series was just what the doctor ordered for Stark fans everywhere, right? Wrong. Sorry comic lovers, you're beloved source material has been messed with. Lovers of the movie who never read the comics: same thing. The series has nothing to do with the live action movie, but is set in it's own continuity. Teenaged Tony Stark is a boy genius who's father runs Stark Industries. The company refuses to make weapons instead making tools for things like archology. Tony and his dad's plane crashes, but the iron man armor saves Tony's live. Tony now lives with Rhodey and is fighting to keep his and his father's designs from the hands of the current Stark Industries owner, who is Obesssed with weapons. We also meet a strangly talkive and BIZZARE teen dective wannabe AKA Pepper Pots. Now obviously, story elements: diffrent to the point they're unregonizable, it seems they took the whole thing from the wrong comic series. An action scene involves Iron Man saving a train subway/tram train from going off the tracks and this Tony is of course an orphaned teenager (sound familar and Spider-like?). The animation is done similar to Spider-man: the New Animated series (again, I love Spidey, but come on!) in that all backgrounds have that 3d feel. The character designs are a bit simplistic, but the transfromation scenes make up for this a bit and I have no complaints about voice acting. Some characterzation is a bit questionable though, Tony's father is WAY to much of a good doer from the get-go and the villians are slightly over the top (though the Mandrin's partrayal is OK). Rhodey's okay, no complaints there. Pepper's new hyper and eccentric attitude? Ahh...we'll have to see how it all plays out for now. The show still has potential but it may upset hardcore geeks...er fans.moreless
