I love this painting by Daniel Clarke. It absolutely captures the vindication I think a lot of readers would like to see in the post-Civil War era. A one-hit smack down of epic proportions. Glorious :)

I haven’t seen Sherlock Holmes yet, but I’m going to go out on a limb and say that if all Robert Downey Jr. made for the rest of his life was sequels to Iron Man and Sherlock Holmes, the world would be better for it.

This looks like another incredibly charismatic and fun movie - everything I loved about Iron Man.

Now for some fretting: Seeing Don Cheadle in the War Machine armor was a little.. odd, but I’m willing to hold off judgment. I had hoped to see something from Scarlett Johansson’s Black Widow that we hadn’t seen before, but I will have to wait for that too. I also have concerns that Olivia Munn will be playing Melina Vostokoff, aka The Iron Maiden, a Russian agent who was overshadowed by the Black Widow and thus wanted to kill her. God forbid Johansson and Munn have any scenes together - neither could act their way out of a box…

But I get ahead of myself.. for now.. I will just *SWOON*

If you don’t catch this reference, then I’m afraid we can’t be friends anymore. Sorry to be so harsh, but it’s a line I have to draw.

Delicious footage of Iron Man 2 from SDCC. I hate to say it, but the two seconds of Scarlett Johansson kicking ass was convincing.

I am left wondering how everyone manages to steal Tony’s Arc Reactor though. Don’t just leave that shit sitting around, Stark! If Mickey Rouke can get his hands on it, it is not hidden well enough!

One might wonder, how does an expensive display of 4 life size Iron Man armors get broken down and packaged to ship across country? Perhaps in specially designed crates, or molded foam? Nah, why go through all that hassle, when you could just tape some shipping quilts around them?

thanks to agent M for the behind the scenes!

Iron Man is my favorite superhero movie of all time. Scarlett Johansson is one of my least favorite actresses of all time. I’m rather convinced I am going to hate Iron Man 2 because of her and that makes me very sad.

In my mind, not only can Scarlett Johansson not act, but she is way too young and soft to play the very experienced and deadly Natasha Romanoff. This photos do nothing to build my confidence. If she doesn’t have at least have a believable Russian accent, someone will have to be punished for casting her in this movie. That’s all I’m saying…

I have no idea what this image from the front (and only) page of Stark Industries.net is about, but damn if it didn’t make me smile! If this is insight into Iron Man 2: Electric Boogaloo, I’m 100% behind it!
