Iron Man Smashes Blu-ray Sales Records

Posted October 3, 2008 08:15 AM by Josh Dreuth

Paramount In an interview with Howard Stern yesterday, 'Iron Man' director Jon Favreau revealed that the Blu-ray release of his blockbuster hit has already broken sales records for the format. While final sales numbers won't be known until next Friday, its was widely expected that 'Iron Man' would be a huge success on the high definition format.

To listen to the short sound clip from the interview, click here.



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson
