Have you tried something like this?

FbCommand("SELECT * FROM SP_GET_MOVIES_ALL(@ICOUNT,@ISTART)", con)
fc.CommandType = CommandType.Text
fc.Parameters.Add("@ICOUNT", FbDbType.BigInt).Value = 10
fc.Parameters.Add("@ISTART", FbDbType.BigInt)).Value = 2
Dim fdr As FbDataReader = fc.ExecuteReader()

It doesn't matter in which order you will add them :) this is really
convenient especially if
you will combine it with the System.Reflection api so you don't have
to write all those boring
lines with code for just adding parameters.
