First image from IRON MAN 2! Many suits! Glowy heart Downey!
Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. I've been looking forward to this hitting today since Favreau announced USA Today was premiering the first official still from Iron Man 2 earlier this week.
And I love it. To death.
I was actually talking with some friends in a chat room as the story hit and one of them thought the picture sucked. Why? Because it looked like it could be from the first movie. "Exactly!" I said. Sure, I don't want a repeat, but goddamnit I want it to feel like the same world and that's exactly what this is.
This is the first of a year and change worth of teases from Favreau, Paramount and Marvel. I can't wait to see what else they have up their sleeves.

Looks GREAT!
-
And that's not a bad thing
-
nice go rockets
-
Loves it!
-
Turn on your heart light. Let it shine wherever you go...
-
... this second installment follows in the footsteps of superior sequels. And maybe we'll get a teaser trailer for IM2 come San Diego Comic Con?
-
...but this is undoubtedly the most boring still from what is sure to be a big fun movie.
-
... an experience which (unfortunately) is far more rare than the other kind. And no I'm not showing off. Just the opposite in fact.
-
There's 4 suits in the still. The first movie had 3 and the first one got destroyed. So how does this look like it's from the first film exactly?

Where's danguy crying about how this is already posted...
by jimmy rabbitte
on every other site, on the web?
Oh... looks like he's finally been banned. Farewell dumbass... we hardly knew ye. -
The last suit on the right kinda looks like 70's era Shell-Head. I'm in!
-
But that ending was unforgivably conventional 'special effects punching each other for 20 minutes' nonsense. Everything else in that movie was wonderful.
-
Looks like the first movie. Also agreed, that's a good thing. The movie just picks right up where it left off. Did you expect things to change? And besides, didn't you all love the first movie?
-
Still a huge mistake. Don Cheedle is a huge pussy.
-
Love the suits in the background.
-
I was hoping for a close-up of the latest version of the suit.
This is still great. Cannot wait for this movie, it's going to be a blast. -
just looking at this single pic makes me question why the wolvie flick was even made. seriously.
-
Fat Favreau, skinny Favreau or cameo Favreau (sorta in between)?
-
Your friend might as well complain that the movie sucks because it'll have the same actor in it...
-
Even Favreau the director said they needed more time to make a worthy sequel.
-
...like "fighting."
Good riddance, dumbass. -
Frozen.
-
I didn't get what all the excitement was about. So this just bores me.
-
Most of that was garbage.
-
You should know this. Of course your friend pissed on it. This picture is out of context, shows little more that...well... more, and indicates little more than the movie is underway. So, naturally, your friend shit all over it. This is why pre- film release news has ruined film for so many. They can't take building blocks for what they are.
-
I love Downey
-
But if you think most of the first Iron Man film was garbage, you have no fucking soul. Let me guess, you thought Wall-E was boring because they didn't speak for the first act of the film too right?
-
Robert Downey was entertaining but everything else was lame, Favreau can't do action at all.
-
...ss. Bring on RDJ!

They Should've Replaced Downey For This
by my_horse_got_fucked_on_jeopardy
Just so everyone would complain.
-
not the exact same one.
-
Yeah, they've said they made it a little sleeker and more ergonomic.
-
Am I totally alone in thinking the first "Iron Man" was completely overrated? I liked it and thought it was ok but hardly deserving of all the praise it gets.
-
Even Jeff Bridges couldn't save it.
-
break it down- what suit versions are in the background. and by 'geeks' i don't mean to insult you. i seriously want to know what years those suits homage to, if any. i never really kept up with iron man. wasn't his glowy thing a rounded upside down triangle at one point?
-
Fuck Fox and their pathetic, failed attempts at doing the time-tested, beloved X-Men justice. Iron Man is PROOF you can do a superhero film right, make the die hard fans happy, and make a SHITLOAD of money.
-
looks like the very first one, the second one, unpainted, the finished one from the first movie with possible battle damage and a new clean one...right?
-
more slender silhouette and color scheme of the classic Model IV red and gold (which had more gold/yellow).
-
I don't think that because of IM1 lack of action, and clunky action at that, that the movie suffered. I could watch that movie more often than I could watch TDK and that was a far more cerebral action piece than anything IM could be. However given the circumstances of an origin pic for a not so well known hero, a former roommate of mine worked on the film and called IM "tin can man with a drunk in inside," I thought it was handled with kid gloves and it worked. Now I hope the stakes are raised and the action is increased. I'm just concerned about how far they want to take this. Do they want to travel into Modok and Fing Fang Foom territory while trying to ground everything in reality. I mean Mandarin is bad enough esp. w/ the 10 magic rings.
-
Aparently you haven't seen Chedle in Devil In A Blue Dress. Cat proved he can do bad ass.

Jon Favreau & Downey Jr is the problem with Iron Man.
by scriptgirl_nipples
Oh, and Gwyneth Paltrow sucked.
Iron Man contained roughly 45-50 minutes that was ok. The rest garbage. -
Wow oh wow oh wow oh wow oh WOW!!!Perfect!Perfection incarnate in digital form!!!

If you don't like Iron Man, then you don't like good movies
by doctorzoidberg
Word.
-
WTF is it with you people?
-
people are crazy to say its better than TDK, but its a solid flick. the next one should be cool.
-
why are movie designers always pushing the idea that clear computer screens are 'hi-tech'? think about how stupid and impractical it is and how distracting it would be to try to read something while seeing everything behind the screen. and then think about how impractical that would be in the average home. everyone lloking at their walls and dustbunnies and wires in the background of their facebook.
-
as compared too.....wolverine anyone?
-
you'd be looking at the big ugly mounting point in the dead center of the screen. if you are going to do transparent screens, go for side mounting, fool!
-
TravisPitts.imagekind.com
-
Cause a few whiny fanboys though the Graphic Novel was excellent (but it isn't really), and the movie sucked.
-
i deal alot with computer screens being a graphic designer. I've got an old ass sony trinitron 24 inch that weighs over 100 lbs. fucker is huge, but produces the best picture quality i've ever seen, and its a crt. But the advantage i see of having a clear screen is the amount of color you can choose. it would be like programming in a white balance, but simply just moving against another pallet on the wall. i think it could be usefull if it were designed to be more portable. you'd be suprised what your mind can block out when your dealing with stuff like that
-
watchmen comic sucks...which makes everyone else on the planet wrong what a dick you are
-
I didn't hear this til now. Is this article accurate?
-
does stark cut holes in all his shirts???
-
yes he does, all of them
-
it's not that everyone on the aint it cool talkbacks hates everything. its just that nobody likes EVERYTHING, and the only time most people choose to contribute to a talkback is when they have something negative to say. that way it just seems like everyone hates everything.at least thats what i tell myself so i can stomach the constant negativity.
-
The first one su-u-u-u-u-u-u-u-cked
-
what movies do you like? Scratch that. Don't bother answering. Just walk yourself onto an interstate highway, lay down, and let an 18 wheeler smash your head off your body.

Lets go Lakers.
-
cuba gooding could have replaced howard for much less than cheadle...better visual match and...well..daddy day camp, anyone?
-
...looks like the Iron Man suit I grew up with--the one he wore through pretty much the entire 70's and 80's. I like that nod a LOT.

one quick comment

does stark cut holes in all his shirts???
Dude he is Tony Stark He probably has them made that way.
I liked Iron Man
I liked The Dark Knight
I liked The Incredible Hulk
I liked Watchmen
I hated the work print of Wolverine -

just make sure the final fight doesnt suck
by supercowbell4therequestformorecowbell
iron man was near fucking perfect.

Terrence Howard was the best part of the first film....
by dannyglovers_dickblood
...Downey is charming, sure...but hit shit gets very fucking old the second time around. I'm sick of his playful-- I'm the greatest actor in the world, but I'm just kidding/no I'm not/yes I am, I'm sober now so its cute for me to be an arrogant prick. Fuck him.
-
Apr 30, 2009 11:37:08 PM CDT
Someone thought the final fight in Iron Man was good?
by dannyglovers_dickblood
Fuck. What fucking movie were you watching? That shit was much sloppier and incomprehensible than anything in Transformers. And it lacked tension. At that point in the film...I could give a fuck what happened to any of those characters. I was just continually reminded of just how shitty that 90s grunge guitar original score was. Too bad Layne Staley is in a fucking, coffin. He could have scored that shit. Actually I would have Downey O.D. and drop dead if I could, switch him with Layne and have a new Alice In Chains album by the end of the year. IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN YOU BOB!
-
every movie is overrated, and the movie that came out before it was better, so it sucks.
-
Almost forgot he was in Iron Man. Forgettable role and easily replaceable. Don Cheadle's shits can act better than Howard.
-
Giant turd if the GIANT SQUID is not there!!!
-
...he tried to create a website for people who love movies but wound up with one that mostly just draws a bunch of obnoxious fucktards who know nothing but hate. Iron Man sucked? Wow, you people are so fuckin sad.
-
i'm not saying you can't have a good ironman flick without him, but he made that role his own, and it was entertaining as fuck.
-
It reflects the political climate of this decade unlike many movies of its ilk. I applaud its very real depiction of terrorism and its anti-war message. I'm glad they gave Tony Stark a real reason to be a superhero.
-
Apr 30, 2009 11:53:35 PM CDT
I hope that's the classic Iron Man armor in the background
by chuck_chuckwalla
Because that's the Iron Man I grew up with
-
is a good fucking movie. So fuck you.

You guys that like Iron Man seriously liked that climax?
by dannyglovers_dickblood
I mean....it did it for you. You were thrilled? You actually felt like Tony was in danger? You actually felt like Jeff Bridges was villainous? You gave a fuck if Gwyneth got her face torn off? You liked the music? You liked Downey playing himself again? You really thought it deserved to be compared to Robocop or Rocketeer? You thought the CG in the end fight was good? You felt an inkling of actual emotion when it came to the Tony/Pepper romance? If you answered YES to any of the above, you deserve to drink my pee. Tonight.
-
The rest was fine, at least the origin is out of the way for the sequel
-
The origin is out of the way for the sequel? That reads bad.
-
That reads poorly. Fuck it, I'm going home.
-
i mean, yeah, i enjoyed watching those movies when i was a kid, but i don't feel the need to compare them to each other OR ironman.maybe its just a generational thing. every generation is gonna think that their movies are the best, and the movies come afterward don't measure up. i mean, rocketeer?! nostalgia's gotta be playing a role with that one...just think: there are 12-18 year olds right now who love ironman; its THEIR movie, and whatever comes 10-15 years from now that evokes the same imagery is gonna suck in their opinion, cuz it'll never measure up to their childhood favorites.
-
then i guess you can swallow my piss, if you're into that sort of thing...
maybe that'll help make my comments fit in a bit more around here. -
I mean, at first during the movie she didn't want to do it because people were in the theatre, but later I managed to convince her to go down and even lick my...oh, wait. That isn't what you meant.
But I do think she might be into water sports if you want me to give you her number. -
action sequences for this go around, so that is promising.
-
it didnt set any new standards but Ironman was a solid. The ending was up to par with the rest of the movie.

Awesome. Is Iron Man the only big comic book release of 2010?
by hallmitchell
Go Mickey Rourke. Can't wait.
-
But few films are.I still rate Robocop as one of the best films of my timeThe prophetic social commentaryThe Verhoeven ultraviolenceKurtwood Smith's terrifying turn as Clarence BodickerFor an action movie it had more fucking heart than anything made nowadays. I stuck it on once on a comedown still ripped to the tits after clubbing all night. The scene where he goes back to Murphy's old house? I blubbed like a bitch!Iron Man was a cool flick though - thanks to RDJ's charisma and a tight script that moved so fast there was no time to look at your watch. Will certainly be shelling out on the sequel.Bitches leave!
-
robocop stands the test of time.
-
Bulls/Celtics tonite was a fucking classic.
-
We knew he was gonna fight his brother. It made sense. It worked with the story.
-
"Bitches leave" is one of my favorite movie lines of all time.
-
I thought the Mandarin picked up his busted first armor in the first film. So why is that suit at the left here?
Suits on the right look identical to me, one's just scratched up. -
Put in the IM blu-ray & watch it immediately! I wish other superhero movies held up as well.
-

-
Iron Monger was based off the original design so when Stane goes to see the suit in Afghanistan after he kills all the terrorist he takes the suit back with him. You later see it put together in Stanes lab right before the monger attack. I'd assume stark recovered it from there.
-
Cool pic. Expecting great things from Iron Man 2!
-
but come on, it was hardly a great film was it?
-
Thanks for reminding me about that scene. Seriously, is there anyone cooler than Jeff Bridges?TONY STARK WAS ABLE TO BUILD THIS IN CAVE. OUT OF BITS OF SCRAP!
-
I got so excited a fucked up the quote
-
Watch this space.
-
The scrape with the tanks was cool but I always feel these films skip the non-plot related heroics that make comic book heroes heroic rather than just likeable.

Know what I like about the first Iron Man?
by christian_bale_trashed_my_lights
It was fun. And there's not a lot of recent movies I can actually say that about.
-
Will be the one with THE NOSE. :)
-
DocDaneekaOutlawsDelejosRev. SlappyYou are all in my cool book.John Favreau obviously agrees. Anyone who noticed the nod to Robocop during Tony's escape in the Mk1 suit also goes in the book.
-
it is very easy to fuck up HTML.
I am SUCH an amateur -
Just about anything. I especially loved how Stane Doctor Doomed out as soon as he sat into the suit. You can't beat the Dude spewing things like "My technology is superior in every way! BWAHAHAHA"
-
thought that thing was left in pieces in the desert and then found by those terrorists? unless thats just like a fake display version. although it was the basis for Bane's suit so maybe Stark dropped by his office after the first movie and picked it up. :P
-
now thats cool news.although i am not 100% confident that the movie will be better than the first one.
usually the comic movies sequels are better,but with iron man,i dont know,somethign tells me that we might get an unpleasant surpirse at the end.
i hope i am wrong. -
What's not to like?
-
May 01, 2009 7:34:21 AM CDT
I have to keep saying it. The progression of IM films MUST be:
by fireclown
Stane leads to Mandarin. Mandarin leads to FIN FANG FOOM. IM3 is filmed in secret, with fake tidbits being fed to the press. Then, Cloverfield 2 is released, with shakeycam ground level hiku dragon goodnes. And out of the blue: BAM! Stark saves the day. You all know this would rock the socks off of the planet.
And I love the still. Keep the Downey Stark comin.
-
jesus christ,and u call yourselves nerds? robocop was ,as a movie,what a judge dredd movie should have been,and it also had many influences from the iron man character.
the script writers admit this,and there is a small tribute to that.just watch the robocop movie,in the scene where the thug goes to the mini market shop to steal it,he takes from the stand with the magazines an iron man issue.
just check this info on imdb. -
the dutch at least undestands political satire and dark humour.he would have made a great Judge Dredd film,well as long as sly wasnt part of it.
-
I love it
-
"Iron Man wasn't very good?" What do you people want from genre films?
IM is easily the most rewatchable film from last year... IM2 is def. a must see.. -
I love both these films for some similar reasons and some different- both are sly satires of their time that can be equally enjoyed as action films.
However, Iron Man has a more compelling central character, while Robocop has gleeful, deliberately OTT violence.
In short, both these films are awesome! -
loved it!!
cant wait for this!! -
on his supercomputer no less. I bet that computer gets porn regular computers can't even process. Like some 3D shit. They have to keep this scene in the film.
-
right here. I fucking love the first film. Fav GETS IT. Hall of armor, fuckin' a. The Mark IV is in there, it looks sleak. I cannot wait for this movie to kick me in the balls and eat out my girlfriend!!!!
-
You do realise of course that in essence Robocop basically IS Judge Dredd (just a bit less fascistic and then he has misgivings), right? Why would Verhoeven make it again when he ALREADY made that movie? And even though he ripped it off I'm not saying it was a bad movie at all - it was MUCH better than the actual Dredd film. But it's just too bad that when he remade Robocop as Starship troopers, it wasn't as good. But all the same elements are there, just in a tweaked form.
-
For once we are in complete agreement! 80% awesome, barely competent ending. But the brilliant thing is that Favreau is self-aware and humble enough to realise this and hired GENNDY TARTAKOVSKY to get the action more than up to scratch. Can't wait, such a big fan etc.
But THIS time around, I'm not watching all the trailers that FUCKING GAVE THE WHOLE MOVIE AWAY. I loved the film, but felt like I'd only seen the prologue. Hopefully THIS will be the main event. -
the SFX in Iron Man, you are a complete fucktard. They blur the line, man. What has better effects? And the final fight only seems anticlimactic because the movie leading up to it is so good. I am hoping for more action from the sequel and higher stakes but that's how it goes, gotta get the origin out first, which was handled masterfully in the first film.
-
but read the second is beyond me. I fucked up. Sorry dude. I really shouldn't post so late every night... But the other points still stand. Woo. Time for bed then.
-
I've never seen bold type in a talkback, will wonders never cease? What magic is this?
-
Howard was the WORST part of Iron Man. What in Bale's name were you watching to say some shit like that? They cut most of his part because he was weak. His voice sounds like a whiney 12 year old bitch, no gravitas. Cheadle will own him.
-
Wasn't too fond of the first one. Not as good as The Incredible Hulk. Definitely glad I saw Speed Racer over this when it was out. Not too excited about it but I might see it just to see if its any better than the piece of shit that was the first film. What a shitty ending that was. But Sam Jackson as Nick Fury I appreciated. If he reprises his role I may see it. But the first sucked so I'm not getting my hopes up.
-
He's got full 3-D holographic projection dealies! Epic fail. Worse than Wolverine. JK!!!! ;-)
-
My guess is those aren't actual suits, but display models charting the history of the design. As has been pointed out here, version 1 got blown to bits, and the 'unpainted' suit was then coated to solve thermal problems IIRC. Also IIRC, the suit 'heart' only lights up when connected to Tony's 'heart'.
So this is the Iron Man Suit Gallery, not Tony's current hi-tec wardrobe. It's even possible he's using the briefcase or nanotech suit by this point, we'll have to wait and see.. -
... that's stored in Tony's bones of all things (as if that even made sense... guy would still need marrow, after all. It defeated the whole concept of Iron Man and was just one step too high tech... and was, of course, also lame.
-
Pre-getting-ruined-by-Charlie Sheen Denise Richards! Nazi Doogie Howzer was good for a laugh, though.
-
That's what I'm talking about...
-
The Incredible Hulk better than Iron Man
Definitely glad I saw Speed Racer over this when it was out.
You must be mildly retarded. -
I'm very enthusiastic about this upcoming motion picture release.
-
I am TOTALLY very interested in the projection of this moving picture film at my local cinema! IM2 (as my chums and I enjoy referring to it as) wil completely BEND ALL OTHER FILM OVER A LOW PICKET FENCE, RIP THEIR PANTS DOWN, FORCIBLY DRY FUCK THOSE MOVIES' ASSHOLES, AND SQUIRT A SHIT-INFUSED NUT IN THEIR NOSTRILS!! Oh yes, I think it'll be a pleasant theater experience.
-
While I agree the first movie isn't perfect and the ending could have been punched up, it was definately one of the best superhero movie made. Why? Character.
Tony Stark is interesting. He's a man out to change his nature. He becomes a hero to atone for what he considers "sins" of his past. And he's charming. Sorry, but Bruce Wayne is not very interesting. Neither is Bruce Banner.
What is the theme of the Hulk as a character, anyway? You have to rage out to be good? He's better off as a secondary character or even villain. Otherwise, the character himself has no point. I'm not sure how anyone can diss the end of Iron Man yet applaud Hulk 2's ending. Hypocritical at best.
One aspect that I like about the Iron Man crew....they're having fun. And it shows. They're not making it a broodfest of a story that isn't even about the actual title character. Hiring Genndy Tartakovsky to plan the action sequences is a very interesting move. Favreau knows his weakness and hires someone to enhance that part of the film. Instead of certain directors that insist on directing action when they have no real skill at it. Smart move on Favreau's part, and I hope it pays off. -
AINT GOT SHIT ON IRON MAN 2. IM2 IS WAAAY SICKER THAN PEDRO!
-
...my child "Iron Man 2" and then kill him right after he's born simply because there's no possible way he could live up to the pure awesomeness of his name!
-
..."Iron Man 2" won the Oscar in EVERY category (INCLUDING Best Live Action Short)! A differnt Marvel superhero went up to accept each award. I particularly enjoyed when Dazzler accepted the trophy for Best Adapted Screenplay (she's SO adorable!). When the ceremony was all over, they declared that the Oscars would no longer exist because no other movie could surpass the brilliance of "Iron Man 2". The entire crew of IM2 was then executed live on stage so that they wouldn't even ATTEMPT to make a 3rd "Iron Man", and then Barack Obama declared that no more movies could EVER be made again, declaring it a Federal offense punishable by death. Duuuuuude, the future looks GREAT!
-
EVERYTHING YOU HOLD DEAR. YOUR SPOUSE. YOUR CHILDREN. YOUR PETS. YOUR OLD PEOPLE. EVERYTHING! IT WILL CEASE TO EXIST IN THE BLINK OF AN EYE BECAUSE OF IRON MAN II. MAYBE, SOMEDAY WE WILL REBUILD. AFTER GENERATIONS HAVE LIVED UNDERGROUND, TO AVOID THE FALLOUT, THEY MAY EMERGE AS A NEW RACE OF ALBINO PSYCHICS. THEN THEY WILL FORM A NEW SOCIETY. WITH NEW SYSTEMS OF GOVERNMENT, COMMERCE, AND CULTURE. UNTIL AN PSYCHIC ALBINO ARCHEOLOGIST FINDS A BLURAY COPY OF IRON MAN 2. UPON WATCHING IT ANOTHER KRAKATOA-ESQUE EXPLOSION OCCURS, TURNING THIS NEW PREDOMINATE RACE INTO A FINE WHITE POWDER. AND ON AND ON...THIS CYCLE IS REPEATED UNTIL THE END OF DAYS.
-
Honestly..I found it a fun and entertaining movie..and Downey always delivers the shit, a real fucking Professional that guy.However, the score was the SCRIPT GIRL of scores..it fucking sucked a truckload of cock and then some.
-
I rather enjoyed the score... to each his own I guess.. really fun film though..
-
Liked the score, liked the attitude, liked RDJ. Didn't like Terrance. The ending, while predictable, delivered the requisite suspense and action. Come on, Stane chasing him into the stratosphere while his reactor quickly depletes? That was awesome. The fact that Stane built Shuttle-sized jet booties was a nice reveal in and of itself. Lighten up, Francis IM2 is gonna rocka de socks. Widow pics, please!
-
I know Rourke and ScaryJo are getting all the attention, but I am beyond thrilled that Sam Rockwell is playing a foil to RDJ. The man can do no wrong in my book and he does smarmy (a key Justin Hammer trait) like no other. I'm really excited that he's in it, and cannot wait to see his 'look' in this movie. No, I'm not Sam Rockwell. It would be infinitely cooler if I was, tho.
-
That last one cannot be countered. I was going to try an "Iron Man 2" after life-thing with Jon Favreau Jesus, but it would have had far less absurdist appeal. You win....THIS time. I'll see you in another thread, homes.
-
May 01, 2009 4:02:41 PM CDT
Unfortunate villian choice; Rockwell will be awesome
by cant_stop_yawning
Really don't care for the Crimson Dynamo choice - don't need more suit v. suit action. Also, Rourke is a nutjob and the wrestler was overrated; felt made for tv.

Darren Aronofsky will destroy us all with professionalism
by stuntcock mike
Jesus, I almost typed Alejandro Jodorowsky's Robocop. Can you imagine what a glorious headfuck that'd be?
-
Edit function fuck!
-
Can't say the same about Bayformers can ye?
-
The disc makes a great frisbee, the case is great for scraping dog shit off your shoe, Megan Fox is great for...uh, I gotta go now.
-
Still scratching my head over this Whiplash business. Can't imagine how that won't look ridiculous. Cannibalizing the Crimson Dynamo character doesn't sound good either. Unless I'm forgetting someone great, IM has the Mandarin and that's about it. Or maybe they're going to trot out Stilt-Man for the next flick.I enjoyed the Dynamo and Titanium Man in the old comics, but most people here seem cold on any more man-in-suit stuff.Newer IM fans, who are the new-classic IM villains, if there are any?
-
I'm still kind of incredulous that we're getting a big-budget Thor movie made by Kenneth Branaugh. It sounds like some kind of talkback daydream rambling come to life.
-
Anyone who believes that it's a fucking masterpiece, is a fucking tool who deserves to have their eyes poked out.
-
Fact.
-
KEEP 'EM TO YOUR FUCKING SELF, TROLL! Unless I agree. Carry on Darth_Bale.
-
Jesus Christ, if T2 came out now, AICN talkbackers would "hate" it.
-
But it's fucking hilarious when you're at work, pulling subscription cards from magazines. Only trouble is, now that I'm registered, I've become part of it. I should have kept my distance but that damn Baleback was too tempting. Beetle Out!
-
OH MAN THAT MOVIE SUCKED EVERYTHING ABOUT EVERYTHING SUCKS EVE AICN SUCKS THAT WHY I POST ON HERE
-
Seriously people IM was a fun comic flick. It wasn't serious it was fun and Downey gave it its heart, no pun intended. But all the hate I'm reading damn I thought you cat just saw Wolverine.
Anywho, whoever says IM score was bad is full of dung. Its different not too serious, no crazy choirs (spider man) not over the top guitar play its just right. Here's hoping it is expanded instead of reinvented. -
You know there's always a talkbabck-backlash. Even if most fanboys loved it, agreeability weakens their supposed geek-cred and generally everything undergoes geek revisionist history and somehow was shit for the cooler-than-thou about a year later.
-
Now many TB nerds like to get in on the ground floor and announce something is shit when 1) they've first seen the flick, 2)They've first seen a fucking trailer, or 3) They first heard a leaked script review/heard a net rumour.
Dookie, I don't hate 'incidental' type scores, but the 1st X-men (not IM), is so Godawful it DID suck some of the life out of that movie. That one certainly WAS dung. Agree? -
Then again, it's been a long, long time since I read comics.
I suppose you're now going to tell me Hal Jordan is resurrected and Robin grew up to be Batman. -
God has spoken.
I love Batman and hate Nolan. DARK KNIGHT made me want to hit some innocent child with a hammer. -
A-CHUCKING-MEN!!!
By Bale, what a painful piece of bollocks that was. As if horny college boys wouldn't spooge if Marisa Tomei offered to squirm across their laps!
Don't even get me started on that ending. Cop out!
Mickey Rourke is a Hollywood do-over, and his presense in IM2, as a secondary villain who is a chick in the comics, no less, gives me great reservations. -
You're on the wrong site. Go to dickblood.com or whatever site you whiney bitches go to.

wouldn't that monitor be more difficult to use/see stuff on because its like see thru and shit and you'de see a lot of the stuff behind it as well. Shouldn't futuristic technology improve upon modern tecnology?
-
oh i'm confused!
-
see-through monitors. Your eyes can FOCUS on a fixed point in space. You have binocular vision. The stuff behind is on a different focal plane. Not to mention that the GREATER point is to evoke the feeling of high-tech HUDs and expensive military-type shit. Now gee, I wonder why? Talk about prosaic, literal-minded nerds!
Ever heard of HUDs? I doubt they'd be used in billion-dollar and multimillion dollar aircraft if the things didn't work. Quick flicking from one focal plane to another without head movement. Oy vey.
Irony is, I bet most of you whingeing about this have desktop/wallpapers that are busy and colourful and mess with both your perception of accurate hues and proper contrast levels! What. Ever. Find something else to bitch about. Please!
And I realise this came after your posts Potatino, but I'm not just picking on you. I'm just perpetually annoyed at fanboys' myopia and hubris at not thinking that maybe if they don't 'get' it, that the problem may indeed be with their OWN lack of vision! -
He was one of Justin hammer's goons in "Demon in a Bottle", I guess he'll have the same role in this film.

...is this a movie site for people who love movies or hate them??? These days I can never tell.... Bitch, moan, hate, bitch, moan, hate and on and on it goes....
-
in the first film with Cheadle, for a special edition so that it is consistent.
-
Cuba Gooding Jr. is better in WarMachine's role than Don Cheadle, no disrespect. But T-Howard was better in the first place. Whatever happened with T.H.'s negotiation is a Hollywood mystery................... can anyone Xplain? In rap please??

Can't you see that ROBOCOP was lifted from IRON MAN?
HOLY SHIT!!!
I mean, the books started coming out WAY before the movie was even thought of. -
So Tony Stark had his limbs blown off and replaced by cybonetic implants?
