Forget Iron Man, Watch Out for Iron Baby!

written by John Chow on May 27, 2010

How to make $593 in less than one hour

I really like the first Iron Man movie and I’m sure Iron Man 2 will be every bit as good (please no spoilers, I haven’t seen it yet). However, Iron Man can’t hold a candle to Iron Baby! I have to admit, the creativity of these independent film makers on YouTube are amazing.

The Iron Baby is the work of French Canadian filmmaker Patrick Boivin, who started by drawing comic books 15 years ago and quickly discovered that it was faster to tell a story with video. Then he gradually became a movie maker. The rest, I guess, is history. I can’t wait to see Iron Baby 2.

You’re not actually serious…

ZK @ Web Marketing Blog May 27, 2010 at 10:08 pm

Helped … that will give you 20% credit …

But that video was really cool infact I watched Lee Vs Iron Man as well and that was pretty cool as well.

That sounds a bit too much to believe. Can you offer proof regarding this statement of yours, sir? I don’t mean this in a disrespectful kinda way, you being a boxer and all. Just wondering.

If you actually did help create that video, props. Its amazing.

Liane May 27, 2010 at 8:42 pm

Hahaha. That baby’s so cool!

Haven’t seen Iron 2, too. By all means I’m trying to avoid spoilers on blogs :p

Lemon Laws for Used Cars June 2, 2010 at 7:14 pm

ugh spoilers grind my gears, I just want to watch it in peace. Mickey will be fantastic.

Well done!

College To Careers May 27, 2010 at 9:01 pm

It’s an Ironman mini-me…lol

Heard Iron Man 2 didn’t hold up to the 1st one…but not too many movies actually do.

And I quote….”The Iron Baby is the work of French Canadian filmmaker Patrick Boivin, who started by drawing comic books 15 years ago and quickly discovered that it was faster to tell a story with video. Then he gradually became a movie maker. ”

Sometimes I wonder if people really read blog posts…LOL!!!

Internet Marketing Course May 28, 2010 at 7:58 am

lol, the entire post was about the guy who made the video. Come on! :p

ZK @ Web Marketing Blog May 28, 2010 at 8:50 pm

May be he can’t resist himself by clicking play button and after that added comments … :)

Lemon Laws for Used Cars June 2, 2010 at 7:16 pm

lol my thoughts exactly

ZK @ Web Marketing Blog May 27, 2010 at 9:59 pm

Kids should not watch this kind of movie other wise soon you will see your home’s things will fly.

But awesome and nice work.

Stocks on Wall Street May 31, 2010 at 2:21 pm

Ya a little to mature for kids.

Addy Kho May 28, 2010 at 12:14 am

I think I would rather watch Iron Lady . lol

Irish Garden Home May 28, 2010 at 12:18 am

Nice little video, curious if they ever will make a feature fim out of it ;-) SY

Net Age | Web Design May 28, 2010 at 5:33 am

That was a lot of fun. The terrorists in the colored rabbit suits take the cake, along with the seriously large safety pin in the sideways view of Iron Baby. 10/10 for fun factor to the movie-maker.

ZK @ Web Marketing Blog May 28, 2010 at 8:51 pm

Hey did you see the next video of Lee Vs Iron Man … that was also interesting one.

ZK @ Web Marketing Blog May 29, 2010 at 9:11 pm
Net Age | Web Design May 30, 2010 at 6:13 am

Thanks for the link, ZK! I’m heading over to go watch it right now! YAY!

Lemon Laws for Used Cars June 2, 2010 at 7:18 pm

Haha saw this earlier quite funny I must say.

fas May 28, 2010 at 6:10 am

Awesome stuff man, the trailer rocks so the movie should rock even more.

Internet Marketing Course May 28, 2010 at 7:57 am

Haha, I had heard about this video several times but just now took the time to watch it. That was awesome!

d3so May 28, 2010 at 9:16 am

Lakhyajyoti May 30, 2010 at 11:10 pm

Yasagun K. Michi May 28, 2010 at 5:51 pm

TYCP Magazine May 29, 2010 at 4:28 am

I love that the baby actually looks like a mini Robert Downey Jr.

AtaArticles May 29, 2010 at 4:39 am

Well Patrick Boivin sure has unique talent.

Just over a minute long video takes alot of preparation and time.
Not surprising that just in two days, the video received 1.4 million views!

Internet is really a fun place whenever I saw this kind of videos.

If you do not have any work and want to spend time than internet is the best place to hang out.

It’s one of the great things about the internet…..it helps even the playing field for many people, and youtube is allowing many people to catch their big breaks.

Lakhyajyoti May 30, 2010 at 10:55 pm

Nice Video.Enjoyed.
