I never realized he was in Weird Science. I love that movie as a kid. I can't wait to see Iron Man on DVD. I missed it when it was in the theater.

I loved Weird Science, too! I even have it on DVD. I wonder if that should be one of those guilty pleasure movies.

Less than Zero with Andrew McCarthy and Jami Gertz is one of my favorite movies of all time. Downey Jr. is at his very talented best.

BP--  I know!!  I was surprised as well!!! 

I did this as an answer to a request, and then looked up all of the information, and was shocked that he had been in so many movies, so many that I had forgotten about.

Downey is an amazing talented actor. One of the greats of our time. When I wrote about Chaplin I also looked up Downey. I too was shocked. I want to go and look up some of his movies out there. Thank you very much!
