Comic-Con '09: Quint rocks out to the IRON MAN 2 footage! Scarlett! Rhodey! WAR MACHINE!!!
Ahoy, squirts! Quint here to give you the full rundown of the IRON MAN 2 panel at Comic-Con!
Footage description: Kevin Feige is brought out. Keep the tone. Brought out Favreau. Footage first. Looks like a shitty DVD extra, something a step above what Kenny Powers put together to show off his arm for baseball talent scouts. Just some greenscreen stuff. Downey comes out. “Fuck that! What was that? Unadulterated garbage. You showed me better stuff in the editing room!”
Feige tryies to step in. “No, no this is bullshit!” The crowd is cheering, knowing what’s coming. Turns out that Favreau is a little distracted. It’s his son Max’s 8th birthday… Downey leads audience in Happy Birthday, singing like an Italian waiter, ending with him saying “You better show some real footage.”
And so he did.
It opens with Downey eating a donut in the donut hole of Randy’s donuts, completely in suit except for his helmet, which is off. He’s wearing sunglasses and just chilling. Suddenly “Sir! I’m gonna have to ask you to exit the donut.” is called from the ground and the camera pulls back revealing the back of a bald head with an eye-patch strap. Yep, Sam Jackson as Nick Fury.
The next scene we’re in Randy’s donuts, eating and drinking coffee together, like two normal people… except one is Nick Fury and the other is Iron Man, in full suit (minus helmet). Downey makes a crack about turning his patchy eye away from him.
The next scene is Downey sitting in a Senate hearing being grilled by Gary Shandling’s Senator Stern, who is trying to get the Iron Man tech. “Do you or do you not possess a specialized weapon?”
Downey responds that he doesn’t. It’s a “high tech prosthesis,” and says that he is Iron Man, the suit and him and one and the same and he will not hand his tech over to the government. That would be akin to indentured servitude or prostitution… which, the senators might be familiar with.
Rhodes is brought out and Cheadle is playing him stoic, but still beholden to his country. Stark makes a big speech, playing to the crowd, who eats it up, saying that Iron Man is a nuclear deterrent and peace has been achieved just by his presence. He throws up a peace sign to many cheers and really pisses Gary Shandling off. He screams out “Fuck you, Mr. Stark! Fuck you, buddy!” Of course it looks like a feed from C-SPAN or CNN and the f-bombs are bleeped out. Stark blows him a kiss as he puts his glasses on.
Next we see a series of Tony Stark articles as Mickey Rourke studies him. We can barely tell it’s him, he’s only shown in shadow as he tries to mimic Stark’s technology.
Then it’s Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow fighting in a bright hallway. This got a ton of cheers. She looks great in the role and put the beat-down on a few poor souls.
Rourke’s attack at the racetrack comes up next and it looks fantastic. We see the armature suit and the electric whips tearing up concrete he walks among car debris, approaching a downed Tony Stark (out of costume) who is disoriented and bleeding.
We get a glimpse of Stark opening his shirt and what looked like an infection spreading out from his RT Unit, like black veins before we see a money shot of Iron Man avoiding flack in a night sky, looking sharp as hell as he plummets to Earth.
Then IRON MAN 2 with BLACK SABBATH running on in the background… but that’s not all… The footage faded to black and then fades up again in a warehouse as Rhodes stands in front of a clutter of silver suit parts. Sam Rockwell strolls in, totally cocksure and slick.
Rockwell shows off a series of guns, hand-held machine guns, shotguns and a massive mini-gun like Schwarzenegger used in T2. Rockwell asks what all the guns are for. Rhodey says “It’s classified.” Rockwell asks which of the guns Rhodey wants. “All of them.”
Then the big, big money shot.
WAR MACHINE, black and silver and slightly bulkier than the IRON MAN suit, in action. The mini-gun is mounted on his shoulder, twisting and firing as War Machine’s arms are out. Instead of repulsor rays, bullets come streaming out of his arms, spewing spent casings as hundreds of rounds are shot off at once.
It was beautiful, actually. It’s a night war scene, lit by fire and and the light of his guns firing. The crowd went apeshit.
Panel tidbits:
- Scarlett dyed her hair red before she got the part, which Favreau thought showed a lot of commitment.
- Most of Mickey Rourke’s scenes are with Justin Hammer (Sam Rockwell)
- Mickey went to a Russian prison (voluntarily) after he heard his character spent time in a Russian prison.
There was probably more from the panel, but that was the gist of it and what we saw.
The footage looked just as good as what we saw in the original and Downey is on the ball, man. I love his Stark. The footage totally got the geek juices flowing and erased any doubts that the movie might not live up to the original. Of course, that’s just a few money shots, but it’s also the character moments and the work from Downey that got me super excited. Can’t wait to see more!
Hopefully they release the Con footage so everybody can see it and get jazzed. Will interrogate anyone I can to find out if that happens. Will report back with more soon!
PS Sorry for the typos... been crazy trying to get these reports filed between panels and interview times (while fighting a draining battery no less) and it's radically cut back on my re-read time.

Did dying her hair red maybe show COMMITMENT?
But it all sounds radical. Robert Downey is the coolest. -
I hate myself...
...but I really want to see this movie! -
On my first post. Sounds great. Downey made the first film work. (Take out his line readings and expressions, and the film is merely good.) The talent is there; let's hope Act III is better this time.
-
...I am rent asunder by your vio-lence!
-
And maybe by "equipment," it's some seemingly clever metaphorical replacement for "brass balls."
-
I hope they release it, even it's slightly cut down.
-
WTF Favreau

Also, I hope they better intergrate the bad guy this time around
by ackack
That's the only thing that kept the first one from being completely amazing in my opinion. It felt like Iron Monger was afterthought. I'm glad they put so much effort into properly establishing Tony Stark though.
-
Scarlett shows a lot of equipment to you, doesn't she?
-
Downey and Favreau nailed the first film. They simply refuse to cock up the second. I cannot wait to see this film! This and LOST are THE highlights of this year's comic-con. C'mon 2010!

no doubt this will fail
-
I really loved the first movie, and I want to love this one, but I'm sensing villain overload. Rourke's character, Black Widow, Hammer, and didn't War Machine start as a villain?
So, yeah, I'm a little worried -
Finally, it seems that some superhero movie franchises are starting to see a correlation between A-list actors/actresses/directors/screenwriters and a successful series. It worked for the Spiderman movies (the first two, anyway), and it worked for Chris Nolan's Batman movies. Now Iron Man - Don Cheadle, Mickey Rourke, Sam Rockwell and Scarlett Johansson - all good additions. Fingers crossed on this one.
-
I thought it was that Rhodey took over as Iron Man for a while, then when Stark came back to it he let Rhodey keep an Iron Man suit and use it under the name War Machine.
-
Not much equipment to hair dying really ...commitment, maybe but the equipment is pretty light, especially compared to Iron Man suit(s).
-
wow....i had no clue he was in this. and considering most of my Iron Man 2 info comes from this site, that's a little scary. lol
-
My only experience with Iron Man is the 2008 movie and the '94 cartoon, I vaguely remember War Machine doing bad stuff, but I haven't seen it in 15 years, so I may be wrong
-
Is this a 3D movie theycallmemrtibbs?
-
Oh I SOUPED!!!
-
Isn't that how she gets EVERY gig?
Seriously, though, not sure what you meant by that line. Maybe "initiative"? -
IM was way more awesome than I expected it to be, and I think Faverau and Company will step up their game for IM2. Sounding good so far.
-
Perfect Superhero casting ever.
-
Quint must have had a rough Comic-Con. Drink responsibly.
-
Do you have any more pics?
-
Sounds like it's shaping up to be a great sequel.
-
So... Dammit Quint, you should'a put a spoiler warning about War Machine!

Sam "Rockwell strolls in, totally cocksure and slick. "
by zombieheathledger
When does 'cocksure and slick' NOT describe Rockwell's characters? Rockwell was good in ONE movie, GALAXY QUEST as "Guy." Other than that he's been playing a variation of the same character, "cocksure and slick" for the last ten years.
-
Praising an actress for dying her hair red. Did she dye her pubis red too? Please- she got a decent salary, a shot at a top=tier franchise (which will continue in AVENGERS, etc.)- Favreau if you're reading this, it is you that lacks equipment for being such a fawning fake shit. Oh, and way to use an LA donut landmark in a movie- how fucking original.
-
Really? Do we really need to see a headless Iron Man eating a doughnut? That's the best they could come up with? Wow. Maybe we can see him vacuuming his carpet in part 3.
-
But I'm still not sold on Scarlett as a Russian Ballerina/Assassin; and I'm NOT down with Sam "Just give me a payday" Jackson in anything..the guy has become a parody of himself.Proof is in the pudding...guess we'll find out when the film rolls.
-
No, you will have to wait for the footage to be online.
-
Iron Man is America's new #1 hero.
-
Carry your sorry ass to the theater and see "MOON", then come back and post about Rockwell.
-
Back when the composer thing was hype. Damn, some of you are hypocritical douchebags.
-
Go eat a bag of dicks and then come back and post about the jizz taste.
-
THE DARK KNIGHT (with a "K" homey) is an achievement separate from the comic book genre, let's just get that out of the way. But aside from that, Favraeu is no Chris Nolan. That's like comparing Roland Emmerich to Steven Spielberg. Ah, the Emmerich analogies continue in the FOUNDATION talkback...
-
... if you know what I mean!!
-
And thanks for staying for the whole thing :) Seriously tho. I'm really excited.

One of the WORST scores ever put to fucking film.

Your Mom left 15 minutes ago, when you see her give her a big kiss, then get back to me and tell me how my dick tastes! She asked me to tell you, her son the felcher, she'll be home soon and you can, you know, do what you do best. So it'll be a little of the vanilla, then some dark chocolate, don't mind the little yellow flecks.I won't respond to any of your lame comebacks, so you'll just have to have a flame war all by yourself, you know, the usual!

You know I don't like DC anyways.

And did you know your Mom was into scat? I just pinched a loaf in her gaping maw and the skanky bitch swallowed the whole thing! You'll prob smell it on her breath when she comes down to the basement to tuck you in, in your Boba Fett sheets. Sorry, I had corn on the cob and peanuts tonight, but hey, at least you'll eat, too!
-
total sendup of the the indy film "artists". Should not be considered a horror movie though.
-
That ending and final showdown BRILLIANT EPIC MASTERPIECE OF STORY TELLING Ooops.....I mean what a mediocre shitfest for mongoloid, ADHD, short bus, goat fuckers. Almost as bad and overrated as Abram's Star Drek: The Search For More Money
-
rather than Terrence Howard. Here's a pic of Cheadle in the War Machine armor. http://tinyurl.com/lfb4wz
-
And wined and dined and probably ask the movie to come in for just one drink. Then shall commence the sweet lovemaking, soft focus and all.
-
Damn you Quint. Nice recap though. Now my search for shitty YouTube video of it is underway.
-
It's utterly fucking surprising and very disapointing. I hope it hurts these films. If you can show it to 6,000 people, you can show it to us as well. It's wonderful hype, it's free press and it give the fans and semi fans something to talk about. Nobody I talk to know what the fuck Avatar is. Seriously. I kept trying to explain it's an edgar rice liek tale from terminator aliens titanic king james cameron and well really they still don't give a fuck. Yesh thats right as soon as they hear the plot they lose interest.
-
Were you really looking forward to the moment when you discovered Santa Claus didn't exist? Hate sound kinda condescending but some folks are more worried about nuclear proliferation and the political state of Iran than next's summer's blockbuster

Fucking stream of conscience!!!!

I liked the first Iron Man quite a bit. It was the first great Marvel character movie. X2 was just okay in my book. Marvel has really screwed up some franchises; FF4, X-men, both Hulks, both Punishers, Dare Devil, Elektra, Spiderman 3, etc... What the fuck is going on in the Marvel Universe?!
-
What a fuckin' mess.
-
http://tinyurl.com/m9dbxe
-
Sorry, but let's be honest. X2 was vastly better than the first X-Men. Spider Man 2 was one of the best super hero films made, the "second" hulk was not bad at all, and, in all actuality, the first F4 movie was actually fairly entertaining in a cartoony way.
I'm fairly confident in the various Marvel Universe movies--and to be perfectly frank, who the hell cares about the fringe/less popular characters like Elektra?
-
Anyone get the feeling that this is just too damn rushed?!

Iron Man fighting a slightly bigger Iron Man has already been do
by bob cryptonight
Iron Man fighting a slightly bigger Iron Man has already been done...in the first movie (and it was sort of bland). I hope they don't just rehash all that.
-
I was at this panel and I think I'd remember if she'd pulled out her tits. Anyway, the footage was amazing. Lotta humor in it. Scarlett looks exactly like Black Widow. Mickey Rourke doing a russian accent was very cool, as are his electric whips. Really looking forward to this now.
-
Fuck all you cynics it was "Make Mine Marvel" all the fucking way....if you're like me and have a keen eye for PRESS RELEASE, you would know when shit is BULLSHIT like when that dumb prick with some kind of pre-mutation of James Cameron's treatment of Spider- Man from 1992 was being touted as the script for Spider-Man 3 spread like widefire on the net.... and some of you ate it with some kind of relish.... Sometimes news comes from AP....If it ain't there, it definitely didn't happen. With entertainment media there's nothing to hide like the actions of the Bilderberg Group..... Remember Santa Claus does not exist!!!
-
You're right, X2 was better than X1....but what's the difference when comparing a 2 1/2 star movie to a 2 star. They are both just okay, X3 was suppose to hit it out of the park until Singer jumped ship...and we were left with that still born. If you read my previous post, you will noticed that I only listed Spidey 3. Spidey 1&2 were good movies. FF4 was like watching a direct to DVD superhero movie. It's only redeeming quality was that they used a real person to portray the Thing as oppose to a cheesey CGI hulk. Let's get back to 2 more Marvel movie ftanchises; GI Joe and Transformers...not too popular in the AICN community.
-
the bilderberg group
-
to the new superhero movies we have witnessed, spidey 1&2 still hold up really well, plus it started that whole, superheroes don't wear costume trend that JUST SUCKS, thanks Singer for Superman not having a cape and for Hancock. Bullshit! I want my superheroes with yellow spandex, that's how I grew up with 'em and that's how they got me interested as a kid. SO FUCK YOU BRIAN SINGER AND YOUR NAZI OBSESSED JEW ASS.
-
YAAY MORE CRAP THAT EVERYONE HAS SEEN IN COMICS IN CARTOONS ALREADY!
-
STINO and TF2 are proving that easily...
-
are progenitors to what we have now.....Like the Dark Knight
-
So Gwyneth isn't in the footage nor is she at the panel. Could be coincidence, could be her character gets a reduced role, or maybe she dies and isn't in the thing for very long. Or maybe those rumors about her being a massive bitch on-set this time around were true and she wasn't invited.
-
of film. They're meant for G rated audiences. Sad really. FF 2 almost had a great story, but the kiddie shit in it ruined it.
-
Let's talk about how they dropped Howard like a retarded baby. Then they had the balls to low ball Rourke with a pathetic 250,000 to play Whiplash. I remember back in the mid 90's whem Jim Carrey use to get 20 million a flick. Here we are 15 years later and Marvel won't even cover Rourkes plastic surgery costs. Fuck Marvel. I wish someone would buy the rights to Chaos Comics so we could get a live-action Lady Death or Evil Ernie flick!
-
We hate Iron Man, we hate X-men, and we hate Batman. We have contempt for the forthcoming Iron Man 2, and can't imagine anyone getting excited for Avatar. So I guess that means...we're pumped for the Sex and the City sequel, yes?
-
THAT SHIT WILL MESS YOU UP!!!
-
Some excellent and insightful talkbacker on another thread said something to the effect of "Of course they don't like it. It is a thing that exists, so clearly it will be hated by a large percentage of the psychotics who frequent these boards."Whoever said that, here's to you.
-
in his whiplash costume.no wonder since whiplash was the gayest villain in the iron man comic.
i dont,although i loved the first movie,i am not very happy with what is happening with the sequel the sequel
i dont have a problem that howard left,i didnt like him very much as rodney, he didnt nailed the character very well.
and i dont have a problem with sam jackson as nick fury,as long as has a minor role in the sequel.
ofc i am glad rockwell and rourke are part of the sequel.they are great actors,and they will do a good job with their roles.and cheadle seems to me to be a better rodney than howard was.
what i really dont like is the overload of villains,this thing always hurt comic films.
then its scarlet johanson.i dont have a problem with her as an actress or as a beauty,but i really think she is not suitable for the role of black widow.ofc i have to see the film to see if i am correct with this one.
then there is whiplash.as i have said already he is the gayest character in the IM comics,although if i remember correctly in the volume3 series he had become a tragic villain.lets see if fauvre will give this kind of drama to his character.
and the last thing,is about paltrow.as someone mentioned above,she wasnt in the comicon and there was no footage shown with her.what is going to happen with her character? she had perfect chemistry with rdj,and her character is one of the most important ones in tonys life.
anyway i hope all my worries are unbased,and that the sequel will be greater than the first movie.time will tell. -
Dull, uninspired, irritating. Didn't fit the movie at all.

Way to be, Quint! Thanks for taking care of us!
by the reluctant austinite
Quint, your reports thus far have been astounding. I'll speak for all of us who can't be there in thanking you. We're home waiting breathlessly for news, but it's not always easy to come by. Honestly, I expected most of the journalists at Comic-Con to be too wrapped up in enjoying themselves and taking it all in to bother to report until they got home. Then I expected lots of reports telling us how exhausted they were and how they only got 3 hours of sleep as an excuse for not reporting on the scene. You rock, Eric. Thanks for keeping the rest of us in the loop!
-
JEEZE!!!!
-
Did you SEE The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford? Snow Angels? Moon? He's one of the best actors in America.
-
Meanwhile Chud's Devin is lambasting an Avtar Crew Member who emailed him. The Pricks publicly airing the email message for all to see. What a dick. To the point I've very much enjoyed AICN's coverage of the CC events. Quint actually put your there on the floor with him for the big panels. I'm still in shock over the lack of leaks. The leaky stuff never looks good, but it's still a taste. People think this stuff gives away to much or destroys the hype. I don't believe that for one second. If it sucks it might. It cost 20 million to advertise big picture- maybe more now. the Internet is the cheapest press there is. Hosting videos on you tube cost nothing. Not one fucking dime. It's retarded to keep these things so secret, unless they suck. The IMAX first 15 minutes of the Dark Knight didn't hurt that film one bit, and if the Studios heads are afraid of the footage ruining the hype machine or something retarded like that- then they should show less in these Comic con trailers, because in a way everyone here has already seen this trailer in the less involving way. Instead of a crappy cam copy they read the whole damn thing. Which isn't bad but I think if everyone had a choice they'd rather the first encounter with the material in it's fresh state be the actual trailer over someones textual description of it. No offense meant Quint. I praise you for giving it to us in the best possible way you legally can, and you have done a wonderful job.
Moving on. I enjoyed Iron Man I'm a big fan of Rouke all the way back to Rumble Fish. You know my ass is in that seat on day one. -
Being dyslexic sucks.
-
My most anticipated movie so far!
-
By playing on Stark's egomania. Of course he's not going to give away his baby, of course he's not going to play the standard secret superhero. And totally of course, his competitors are going to join forces to reverse engineer his suit. Why should Justin Hammer jeopardize his fortune, when he can blame it on the Russian mob?

"did she dye it while visiting a russian prison?"
by richard_gere_raped_my_gerbil
LOL.True! I bet Mickey Rourke is thinking "What the fuck! I spent time in a fucking prison and SHE's getting credit for half an hour in some salon getting a stylist to change her hair color. I should have just bought a fucking whip and released a youtube video of me swirling it around my head."
-
Because they are going to go from somewhat ridiculous to full-blown ridiculous, much like Hasselhead's ill-fated detective show did, what with the magic and gods and whatnot. I mean they're actually going to have Tony Stark interacting with a god for fuck's sake. Please explain to me how that's not going to be one of the most embarrassing things ever put on film. There's no fucking way it can be anything other than shit and embarrassing. FACT. Iron Man = Baywatch Nights (as in Baywatch Nights 1). The Incredible Hulk = Baywatch Nights 2. Iron Man 2 = Baywatch Nights 3. Thor = Baywatch Nights 4. The First Avenger: Captain America = Baywatch Nights 5. The Avengers = Baywatch Nights 6.

...someone will make a film for geeks that the geeks don't summarily shit on, don't insult its crew, its performers, its writers, and one where they won't nitpick the set designers if a door in the background of the big fight sequence is ajar. I have a dream of a day when geeks unite not to hate, but to love good entertainment. I may not get there with you
-
wont be developed in this sequel.its a pity,it could have given the true complex nature of stark in his movie franchise.
i guess they are going for the super cool,sexy,womanizer,unbreakable tony stark and a ligther,less mature mood for the movie.
its a pity if thats the case. -
now that's funny. Pitty they're not doing the demon in a bottle storyline I second that I really want him to go to his darkest place, lose the company and fail and then build everything back from scratch, it would've been the stuff great trilogies are made of like The empire strikes back. Sadness, and then victories taste better.
-
that stark created is his power source,not his armor.he miniaturized one giant power reactor into something he can carry on top of his chest.thats what they are going after.and thats what they are going after the us government,justin hammer and whiplash.
have u noticed that rourke as whiplash has the same arc reactor on his chest?and everything tech on him looks more like junk,which he pulled together? think about it. -
to show them live action splash pages. But, how is the story gonna play with that many characters, easily recognizable to people who have obsessed over comics for years, yet, unknown by most of the people in the audience? It's going to be a challenge. Hope they have a story that can support that much weight.I loved IRON MAN. I constantly go back and forth debating which is my favorite superhero between it and SPIDEY 2 or THE INCREDIBLES. But, I have had little interest in a sequel because the concept seems one-note to me. They've got their work ahead of them to convince me otherwise.And, oh yeah, Samuel L. Jackson ruins every movie he's in, as far as (only) I'm concerned. Fuck Nick Fury and all this AVENGERS bullshit. That's wank for nerds.
-
Duh.Everyone knows my favorite "superhero" is Batman. Don't get me started on the whole "Batman is not a superhero" thing, again.
-
...classic donut place in the LA area w/ a giant donut on the roof. It bugged me that in the first movie when Stark got back from Aghanistan and wanted a cheese burger, he went to fuckin Burger King instead of Bob's Big Boy or In-and-Out, places you'd expect Tony Stark to go to. Thanks suits, for forcing in the Burger King product placement. (Assholes)

which was aptly named considering its a ripoff of fantastic four [which was a ripoff of challengers]
-
just imagine a live-action version of marvel's most famous heroes against the omnipotent mad titan THANOS.jesus.
but i agree that it is a stupid idea that marvel studios compel their directors ,to pass the notion in their movies,that all of this is in the same universe and that sooner or later the main characters of their movies will interact to each other.
just let them have their own vision for their movie,and if the time comes for an avenger movie,just have a fuckin middle-man cosmic entity like The Watcher,or Grandmaster or maybe Adam Warlock or even Dr Strange who would be capable to bring all these superheros from different realities to save the multiverse.
its that fuckin simple. -
In my original post, I typed "I constantly go back and forth debating which is my favorite superhero between it and SPIDEY 2 or THE INCREDIBLES" when I meant to type "favorite superhero movie." I didn't want anybody thinking Iron Man was anywhere close to being my favorite superhero, so I corrected myself and asserted that my favorite "superhero" - who is technically not a superhero - is Batman.Burton's Batman is my favorite Batman movie, by far, and it is fourth on my list of superhero movies. Yeah, I dig Prince, too. (Granted, the songs could've been scrapped from the movie, but those were the times. At least it wasn't Michael Jackson or some hair metal.)Hope that clears it all up.Back to IRON MAN...

Sorry guys - you're not likely to get most of the cosmic Marvel stuff anytime soon. I mean, do you have any idea how much money it takes to make a superhero movie? Do you realize its like walking up to a rich guy, showing him pages from a comic book, and asking for $175 mil? Then, you'll need an additional $100 mil to shoot all of the space stuff. That's why there was no galactic dark phoenix saga. I know we can all dream, but let's temper our dreams in the fire of reality, a bit

... I believe it was an orator of note, S.L. Jackson,that once said 'I guess the worst day I have had was when I had to stand up in rehab in front of my wife and daughter and say "'Hi, my name is Sam and I fucked Olivia Munn." '
-
Who the fuck is Olivia Munn?
-
Olivia Munn (born July 3, 1982, as Lisa Olivia Munn) is an American "actress", model and television personality.
She began her career being credited as Lisa Munn. However, since 2006, she has been using the name Olivia Munn personally and professionally.[1] Also since 2006, Munn has been one of the faces of the cable network G4, hosting a number of shows for the network, the most prominent being Attack of the Show!, with co-host Kevin Pereira.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olivia_Munn -
let that joke die and go where old tired unfunny jokes go when they depart from this world.
Also, what's up with all the rip off dgdb talkback names? -
Ok, it was Kevin in a costume but still Olivia was grabbing the costume balls!At least we get a a good idea how she grabs em'!Btw, I agree she not a good interviewer like Kevin or Blair, but when you're dress like Emma Frost, Princess Leia, or Wonder Woman I could give a shit if she talks!
-
and chimp fluffer.
I found her performance in the inide hit, Scarecrow Gone Wild, to be refreshingly bold,her ability to truely represent a woman regaining inner strength while trying to survive an erotic, yet abusive relationship with a Scarecrow, was a tour de force. Add to this the fact that Munn grapples with severe mental handicaps in real life, and really, the performance takes on a whole new dimension.
I, think, nay, I KNOW the she is our generations' Chris Burke. -
They just showed flashes of her kicking ass, and then flirting with Stark as Natasha, but no actual dialogue.

Hilarious. Now Rourke will be able to bring the proper pathos to the Whiplash role. He just didn't feel he could make us believe he was a man wearing ridiculous cybernetic armature with whips unless he got inside the character's head and actually spent some time in a Russian prison. Shit like this always makes me think of Laurence Olivier's famous quote: "Why don't you just try acting?"

That means that despiste all the dancing and screaming from the Dawson's Trek fanboys, that mvoei isn't much more sucessful then wolverine, the movie they like the most to compare to and who use as an example of a box offcie failure. Hell, dawson's Trek is not much bigger then T4, another movie the Dawson's Trek fanbot«ys also like to use as an exaple of box office failure to help boost their own prefered litle shit movie.So, this means that the Dawson' Trek fanboys are living in a little fantasy world where their favorite movie is a sucess that it really doesn't have.

Transformers 2 Worldwide box office numbers are depressing
by asimovlives
But the movie will not get any better because of that.
-
so far. I would actually put TERMINATOR: SALVATION next even tho it was riddled with fail, there were more cool parts then all the others on APOLOGIST's list. It's odd that UP as an animated feature was able to strike more emotionally involving in it's first act alone then all of the other's put together.
-
That Pixar piece of shit. Even TF 2 was better than that pile of ass.
-
Star Trek had such a LONG HISTORY OF SUCK that it was hard to get people there the first time so they could watch something remotely interesting from such a boring franchise.
-
...UP was perfect. I can't be bothered to read back but curb your forked fucking tongue.
-
And not fucking spaceships?!!

Sorry about that. Failed to notice your second post here. Somehow it slipped past me. Maybe I was distracted by a customer or something. Thats what you get trying to TB while bartending. Hehehe..

during SDCC from the AICN people. I guess we will get all the articles when Harry and the others have slept off their hangovers..Quints stuff have been most welcome.
-
Show it to us now damn it.
-
Seriously, you do. Get out of your house and go meet a girl or something. I can't believe those who are drooling and raving THAT much over Olivia Munn at the Con. After reading some of the posts, I googled and found the Con video clip at her web site. And while the Emma Frost costume was okay, the other form fitting costumes were less than flattering to her. Quite frankly, she's chunking out a bit (the Harly Quinn and Tomb Raider outfits showed that in particular).Then again, maybe I'm spoiled since I live in Hollywood where its' a constant onslaught of hot looking, wannabe actresses doing whatever they can to showcase their goods. But for crying out loud, compared to porn starlets, professional models, movie or TV actresses or (as I noted) even wannabe young starlets, Munn is average at best.As for IRON MAN 2, sounds like they're on the right track and it's going to be one of next year's biggest movies, no doubt. Frankly, I appreciate all the talk of how high and artsy DARK KNIGHT was, and it was a solid movie. But while I enjoyed it, I didn't think it was all THAT stunningly great as some always make out (then again I didn't get to see it till the end of its run, so perhaps by that time the overkill of hype and praise had set me up to be a bit let down). To be honest, I actually did enjoy IRON MAN more, so I'm glad to see its shaping up so well.

There´s all kinds of good stuff coming out soon or relatively so
by madcapper
I wonder if Avatar is gonna shine more than Tron Legacy when that one hits. And I wanna see District 9 this instant. Parnassus is coveted, and Spikes new flick looks tasty...Alice in Burtonland looks...interesting too..
-
Personally I believe both movies were hyped up too much. Not to say the movies were bad, on the contary. I loved both of them. But hype is becoming a problem instead of beeing an incentive for me. I think the swelling of movies through media will continue to make people somewhat dissapointed in the future.
-
how can AVATAR possibly live ut to the massive hype that is has? Eyeballfucking, reinventing of cinema, quantum leap for CGI, and so on..

Jul 26, 2009 7:28:09 PM CDT
i love when you guys decide whats successful
by supercowbell5thecowbellhasspoken
and whats not. its fucking hilarious.
-
It's pretty easy, really, Just get the box offcie results, and subtract from them the combined movie's budget (pre production costs + production costs + advertizement), then add to the budget bank the interests that ass been accumulated since the movie was greenlit until first day of release. So, as you can see, it's merely a simple subtraction calculus. And thus, you can know if a movie is sucessful or not. Pretty easy, isn't it?
-
It's bullshit. Everyone(at AICN) is saying it will fuck our eyeballs and etc... This movie is going to blow just like Final Fantasy did. James Cameron hit one out of the park with T2, but that's all were getting out of him. Does anyone really believe that Avatar will be the biggest CGI blockbuster of all time? Bigger than Shrek2, Toy Story, Ice Age, etc. I don't think so.
-
So if one is to adhere to that viewpointm the average moviegoer does decide what is a success, and what is not..No?
-
box office resultsminusbudget (above the line costs aka stars salaries + pre-production + production) + bank interests since greenlit until release + the major players cut (percentage points taken from first dollar) equalssucess or failure
-
I'll start again... fuck's sake!!!
-
The rest of the movie was kinda gay but well worth it for that one showdown.
-
box office results - budget (above the line costs aka stars salaries + pre-production + production + post-production + advertizement) + bank interests since greenlit until release + the major players cut (percentage points from the box office taken from first dollar) = Sucess or failure

-
But then I move on, because life is already crummy enough... I enjoyed the first IronMan enough. It kind of bored me at the finale with the showdown, but it was entertaining for the most part til then. Unless I hear horrid things or am put off, I'll probably try and see it in the theater. Robert Downey Jr. Rocks!!!
-
iron Man was great. It's one of those few DVDS that plays better on TV.

that's what you get when the sequel is rushed. We'll see next year. But man the first film was sheer entertainment. Reminded me alot of Spiderman 1. Just with a much better lead actor. This film is sounding like Spiderman 3 though to me.

..instead of the Tom Sellick, Pierrre Cardan wearing, rich guy, corporate exec he was often portrayed in the comic.There's a reason everyone wants to see the "Demon in a Bottle" saga On the screan. It's because that is the only time Tony Stark has EVER been interesting...Downey brought the magic and made Stark a man every woman wanted and every man wanted to be...Plot wise I see Justin Hammer back engineering Starks heart massaging energy source and testing it with a mad Russian scientist, Roark. Roark goes awol and hunts down Stark. Maybe his life or a loved one's is in danger. Russia sends their top Secret agent, Scarlett Jo, to bring him back to the prison he so rudely escaped from. Meanwhile, Rhody is ordered by Senator Larry Sanders to confiscate Stark's older model armors. He then cobbles the best parts from each stage and upgrades them with conventional weapons to defy Senator Sanders and help Tony defeat Roark and...who else? Wasn't there another villian? Hammer? Naw, Tony would just call the Justice Department and drop a dime.SPOILERScarlett Jo is seduced by Tony and shows up too late to save him but makes up for it by getting naked.

but there are trends and you have to see things how it is if its a sequel its not the same as a new film, and things like that.

Dude, the 'U' key doesn't work on my keyboard...
by cheeses_of_nazareth
-
just busting your chops ;) i write like a turd as well.
But talking about box office, you have to take into account marketing, the director's name, the actors in it. You have to take all that in, in order to asses if the box office numbers have anything to do with it being or not a good film. Anticipation is another thing, the advertising campaign. Something the Iron Man films lack, something beautiful like the TDK guerrilla stuff. -
that post is gold.
-
...about box office not equaling good filmaking. That is something that, I think, is universally accepted. What constitutes "good filmaking", however, is extremely subjective.That's why I love this site...And, I am too lazy to see if filmaking is the correct spelling. It looks weird.
-
looked it up after i noticed how wierd as hell to me looked also. Rourke needs to be cast in Rodriguez's Predator project now! Even if it's a badass death cameo as the first guy do die, doesnt matter to me but put him in!
-
Why not, wasn't Jessie Ventura in the original? They both played wrestlers....
-
You think Cameron had one good movie? T2? Really?
-
Is the movie going to be any good or...? Sorry, I keep having to wade through all the charred corpses of flame war victims to find out. If the producers of this film use their same formula and make things Stark-centric, I am not going to cry. If they neglect to make this a challenge for Stark a la Demon in a Bottle, I'll be sorely disappointed.
-
They make one movie a year. The Critics eat the shit up, and every year they get some Award even though they're just like every other studio, selling toys, games, and fucking rip off CD's
-
I'll stop saying they suck. hey lasetter, gimme my money, ho!
-
for gods sake before that, out of imagination.
-
When you have plenty of Baby Mamas taking their kids (younglings,snotlings,crumbsnatchers)to see a "quality" family film with lame ass spy gerbils.It must be that annoying commercial with Tracy Morgan that draws crowds: "Check out my spy walk".UGH!
-
Rourke looks out of place as Whiplash who isn't even one of the best villians in Ironman's Rogue gallery. Fuck, still no Mandarin or even Crimson Dynamo? Chedale is a good actor, but not convincing as Rhodes, Howard actually pulled it off especially during the scenes between him and RDJ.Why not cast Micheal Jai White instead? it won't cost that much to say the least. Scarjo as Widow? Ok, she's eye candy at least and WTF is that talentless Cosplayer doing in the sequel? G4's Olivia Munn Jon Fav must be returning the favor as the network helped to big the Movie up.(hyping the first film.)Hopefully it's just a brief cameo as she can't act or really host for shit.However she looks hawt in that Baroness getup.I just hope the sequel will do just as good as the first if not better. It won't suck like Tranny 2 at least.
-
Goddamnit...you know why this years comic-con sucks? All you damn folks who got to go have lost your balls.

isn't that good. It's the "Brother Bear" of Pixar's catalogue: Nice to look at, but lightweight. It's definately the least of the Pixar films I've seen. And, yeah, I saw "Ratatouille" and "Cars."

1) Stane
2) Afghani Mandarin
3) Fin Fang Foom, to be released under the title "cloverfield 2)

then whiplash must get some super powered up armour version of himself later in the film. I can't imagine the whiplash we've seen so far is going to be a huge threat that it needs to armoured dudes. Maybe thats' where the crimson dynamo confusion is coming in? Maybe his later armour is similar to that?
Also I still want a manderin on screen. Just make the 10 rings be super advanced technology (i believe the comics retconned them to be alien tech, rather than magic) and there you go, sorted. Watching iron man fight a dude with no armour, but is super powered, would actually look really awesome imo. -
one of the better TB' s in a while. i was afraid 'aicn was losing some of it's piss and vinegar. the cut downs are pretty sharp in here.anywho, am i the only one that thought paltrow was super hot as a redhead in this ironman. she's attractive but she always seemed a bit generic for my tastes. but man i wanted her to sit on my face after i watched that movie.
-
I love Favs and Downey, but throwing in about 6 stars is diluting IRON MAN. Do we need 18 extra super heroes in one film? This is how they screwed up Batman with all this stunt-casting. That said, I'm jazzed for Rourke.
-
could sit on a man's face, and he'd not even know it.She needs to eat a sandwich, 'sall I'm saying!
-
Batman is not a superhero. He is a costumed crimefighter. Just like my boy Blue. Sorry, but it's true. Superheroes have Super Powers.
-
But the fact that there are people out there who know what War Machine looks like when I don't really bugs me. Damn you, more-clued-in geeks!

-
I'm not talking about that fucking power rangers reject Jaime Reyes, I'm talking about Ted Motherfucking Kord. Sure, he had the scarab in his possession for a few years, but it never worked for him. So he got by on quick quips and backflips, at least 'til he got his brains blown out, anyway.

I have seen so much coverage of Iron Man 2, Avatar, Alice etc. but no coverage of the Solomon Kane panel and that movie is done but the others are still in production and you were talking about how great it was. You guys need to hype Kane or post about Solomon Kane.

HOW MANY SUPERMODELS DOES WHIPLASH BEAT UP?
by edgarwrights_prolapsedanus
Also are they as big and as powerful as Carre Otis? Back when Rourke used to break her face she was a whopping 80 pounds.

You're really diminishing the AICN experience for all of us, you know. Do you really want to be that guy? Please, man, for all our sakes, just let it go. Please.

Iron Man is PG-13, isn't it? So, it cannot be full of fucks! Aparently you can only have one fuck in a PG-13 movie, or something.

No. No one ever says anything about his awful posts other than he's annoying and he stole his name from Dickblood. No one likes that guy.

Anyone want to adopt me?

I'm a guy..I can't HATE Scarlett...I just don't see her as BW
by conspiracy
However..today I read she starved herself to fit the costume, and went on a marshal arts crash course. So I guess we'll see it it works out when the movie hits. Still...I can't see why they did not just cast a smoking hot Russian actress, God knows there are enough of them out there.

if I don't see that footage right now.

He could play Rhodes like he did Lincoln Osiris!!!!!!!

I saw this panel while that whole Iron Man fiasco was going on. (I heard it was ridiculous to try to get inside to Iron Man 2.) No one seems to point out that the World Premiere Trailer of “Boondock Saints 2: All Saints Day” was shown. And that the trailer was pretty damn cool. And everyone in the audience was eating it up.
-
Boondock Saints is the most overrated piece of tash ever put to film. Granted, it has it's moments, but it's not particularly good.

IMDB search for the name of the character Rourke's playing. Then WIKI search Crimson Dynamo and compare the results. It can't be a coincidence.

RE:'go up on me'. Best thing I'll read today...thanks much.

you can plait my smooth black hair, and we'll listen to the wireless together, then i'll climb up your torso and STAB YOUR EYEBALLS WITH MY KNITTING NEEDLES and leave evidence suggesting YOUR CAT DID IT YOU DIRTY DIRTY MAN
-
Mourke is cast as Ivan (whatisname) who is Crimson Dynamo's alter ego, but yet he's suppossed to be whiplash?!? or he starts off as whiplash in the first half only to later on become CD. okies that might just work.
-
Rourke isn't playing BLACKlash (a more interesting character IMO) and not WHIPlash. Your summary is exactly as I suspect. Makes sense especially given how Rourke's character is cozy with Rockwell's weapons designer.Obviously, liberties have already been taken with the source material. Only this time, perhaps diverting from the source material may work in favor of the film instead of simply fueling a filmmaker in their attempt to put their personal mark on a known property.

wtf? Why would you steal my screen name? This was a personal name that was part of a very personal event that happened to me on May 1, 1999. I've been a talkbacker here for years. Either you want to be like me, or you're being a complete fucking prick.

I seriously thought we were passed all that.
