    I like how when he acts in a role, you almost don't recognize him I mean c'mon, how could he be the same guy who played his most famous 16d0roles (Swingers, etc.) and also be "Pete the dot-com billionaire who's into UFC" in Season 3 of Friends? Amazing That's not even touching his mad directing skillz.

            It does amaze me that this guy is a very sucessful director and could easily make a living off of that for the rest of his life. But no, he's also a decent actor on the side so I say good for him. I wonder though, if he does just for fun or being an actor helps as a director.

                On the special features for Iron Man they are showing him the scene where Stark first flies out of his garage. In the scene they had partially done they had Stark doing a roll on the way up. Favreau said "that's just a little too flashy" At that moment the reason Iron Man was so good came clearly into focus. He's detail orented and obviously cares a lot about the characters. I was worried about Iron Man 2 till I heard he was directing again. Can't wait.

                    thank you jon for Iron Man 2, very entertaining movie, accomplished in every aspect(casting for instance, cheadle instead of howard ftw),
                    the only thing that bumped me a little was rourkes highlights and jacksons eyepatch.

                      He reminds me of Ben Affleck. Better Director than Actor, but the main difference between these two is that Favreau is a better actor than Affleck.

                        as being somone who has worded jon a number of times. He is a fantastic person and a dream to work with. he has more talent and dictional capability then most directors. When he has a dream, he makes it real. :Many movies wouldt be the same without him.

                            I find his movies to be entirely bland and safe to the point of being boring. I mean Elf was a cute film, but Iron Man 1 and 2 were as vanilla as you could get. No style, no flair, just bland story telling and cliche plots.

                                Agreed. It still blows my mind whenever I watch "The Replacements", I think, "This guy directed IRON MAN, for pete's sake!"
                                Don't look at me, I'm just the pianist

                                      Jon Favreau rock, great actor, director and writer, and most of all, he gave life to my favorite Marvel super hero.
                                      Thank you Mr Favreau for this, just loved Elf and Zathura too, you really rock 😉

                                        I just got blown away by Chef. Yup, the cast111c was an ensemble but he made one heck of a movie that's truly enjoyable to watch.

                                          most importantly he is a good person. he was very nice to my brother and gave said he loved my brothers short film, and you can just tell that most people like him, which is why he makes lots of cameos in peoples movies and people make cameos in his.
