Supercool IRON MAN 2 Footage From Comic-Con Is On MySpace For A Moment!!
I am – Hercules!!
Looks fantastic! Nick Fury apparently shows up earlier this time and Tony Stark gets all Jack Bauery in front of federal lawmakers.
link removed at request of Studio.
As a consolation prize, here’s “Iron Man 2” panel footage:

awesome

looks pretty awesome! can't wait to see more scarlett!
-
That was mighty nice of ya, for those of us who did not make it to Comic-Con. Watched it a few times. I hope Stark isn't that jokey through the whole damn thing. Dude is unhinged.
-
and is there really any doubt that putting Downey Jr. in this role was one of the biggest payoffs for a gutsy, weird move since Johnny Depp in POTC?the idea of Mickey Rourke as a scientist and Scarlett, as...well...an actress, are a little hard for me to swallow. but it looks damn well directed, kudos to Favreau.
-
marvel done right! :)
-
So if it goes bye bye...
-
I give it about three and a half hours before the cease and desist order from Marvel and/or Paramount and it's pulled from MySpace. Would be happy to be wrong, though...
Thank goodness for the Firefox Download Helper add-on... -

Re: Favreau's comments on Thor shooting after IM2 is completed so the character cross-pollenization can continue. Love that!
-
on the rolling stone magazine. classic.
-
...is about as believable as Denise Richards was playing a nuclear physicist in THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH.
-
What's the difference between giving a link to this, and Wolverine footage? Not shit.
-
Herc you are the MAN!! I've been waiting for this from before the con and YES it was worth it! Great post and just in time for the weekend!
-
and I'll watch that fucker too. The difference is, I'll also pay to see it on the big screen.
-
in my loins.
-
Thanks Herc for posting this! I have to agree with iwasredempted. Those magazine poses are hilarious and inspired.
-
missed the footage I guess.Doesn't matter thanks to Ironman 1 my ass will be firmly planted in a seat opening night of IM2.
-
And, I haven't seen so many people cry at a movie (The Passion not included)That being said, I hope Billy May's's kid doesn't do coke...
-
Looks awesome, can't wait!
-
Enforce no filming policy whilst footage plays.
Inject studio drone to film said footage.
Wait till Comic Con buzz simmers down.
Get drone to release footage.
Immediately pull footage to create buzz.
Repeat until teaser trailer.
*Sigh*
Still, all that studio tomfoolery aside, the footage looks awesome.
And yes, Scar-Jo is smokin' hot. -
- before the studio had the link axed! Audience: 1 ~ Studio: 0

Only took about an hour and a half... Congrats, DrunkyMcL, and all you others who downloaded in time. Now, spread the love...

I'm drooling at the mouth! Would really make my day.

How did I miss that Garry Shandling is in this?! As much as I like Cheadle, I wish Favreau had brought back Howard in the James Rhodes role for the sake of consistency. Oh well.
Overall I am quite surprised how well this series has turned out... I have an old Cinematical magazine from the 90's that has an article about how Iron Man 1 was about to go into production and then it seemed to be in turnaround forever. I was expecting the worst with the first one because I thought Marvel and Paramount would not give a second teir comic book hero the same attention and care they would give something like a Spider Man or X Men. I am glad to admit I'm wrong sometimes. -
Aargh! Anyone have it?
-
Looks great
-
Leave your e-mails and I promise to the studios that I definitely won't send you a link to where I have hidden it *ACHEM*
-
then the studios would know where it is and they'd have it taken down....
-
The Good - Downey's usual irascible charm (he does the same schtick in every role but hey, it works well for him and for Tony Stark). The effects of Rourke's suit look wayyy better than the stills we've seen and it looks like Rourke took some awesome whipping lessons to give his whipping some CRAACK!! Gary Shandling perfectly cast as an uberdick Senator. Sam Jackson's passable Nick Fury. The TOTAL FUCKING DESTRUCTION that is War Machine. Don Cheadle seems to be bringing more gravitas to the table than Terrence Howard did to the character, though Howard looked more like Rhodey from the comics.
The Bad - No way are prisoners allowed access to the kind of workshop Rourke is seen working in, they would be working on escaping or making 'shanks' around the clock. Besides, we're supposed to believe Rourke with his extensions, plastic surgery, gold teeth (all of which look like shit) is a jailed SCIENTIST?? Biittchhh pleaasssee. Btw, can anyone tell what Mickey is saying in the voice over when they show the different magazine covers of Stark? I couldn't make it out. Scarlett Johansen is just pose, pose, pose, and looks completely wrong and unbelievable. The eating doughnuts in the doughnut hole thing, the eating doughnuts with the armor on sans mask at the booth, fail, fail, fail. And I know there's a lot of love for Rockwell on this site since Moon and I admit that I haven't seen Moon yet but I've only ever liked this guy in Galaxy Quest. Every other movie he's in he always come off as el douche grande, here, too.
The Ugly - Rourkes outfit still looks like shit. (And did I mention his gold teeth?)
Bottomline- Favreau continues to be a "B+" level honor roll student in the superhero movie genre where Chris Nolan is still far and away the reigning valedictorian. -

dont forget to delete the space! It's rather bad quality though. -
Sorry, but as accomplished as Dark Knight is, it's not an enjoyable film that I can watch over and over. To say Chris Nolan is a better director than Favreau is a a matter of opinion and one that I very much disagree with you on. Favreau can make a very compelling piece of entertainment, hell, Iron Man might just be the most enjoyable and fun superhero movie ever made. And why? Character, for Favreau, is king. Unfortunately, Chris Nolan isn't the same. As I said, he's a very accomplished Director but at least Favreau knows how to finish a movie. Batman Begins and Dark Knight finished like a fart in the wind. The only good things about that movie were Ledger and Eckhart. If you disagree, fine, you're entitled to your opinion. Just be aware that you're very wrong. ;) p.s: don't you quote Box office if you reply either...Uber fans seeing the movie a million times doesn't make it better!
-
yesss...been waiting for this, you guys rock thnx for getting this up and out there

'el douche grande'?...it does take one to know one etc
-
Tool FTW! As much as the first one was overated this looks at least as much fun
-
I am now officially much less excited...Whiplash just looks seriously fucking lame...and while War Machine looks awesome dishing out the hurt, the rest of it looked bloated. Sad that this doesn't hold the pannache of the first movie.
-
Thanks to the folks who posted the YouTube links. You are warriors!
-
and I would pound Scarlett like a jackhammer in time to them beats
-
Spooky - While I agree with you that we are each entitled to our opinion, I completely disagree with your assessment. If TDK is the best superhero movie ever made (which I say it is), I wouldn't even give IRON MAN #2, that honor would go to THE INCREDIBLES, #3 Would go to Donner's SUPERMAN and #4 would go to IRON MAN. TDK tackles current issues (domestic spying, torture), it's a great action movie, character arcs, great design, it respects the intelligence of the audience AND it's funny. This is all before I even mention Heath Ledger's legendary performance. I found IRON MAN enjoyable but it felt like half a movie in comparison to the epic that was TDK, IRON MAN was a McDonald's Big Mac to TDK' fiet mignon. But that's not to say that I won't be in theatre enjoying IRON MAN 2, I will be and I hope it fucking shreds.
quantize- zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz -
Why has it taken this long for guys to wise up to that??? forty six & 2 kicks serious ass.
-
ahh i reckon the end climax in batman begins and dark knight are better than the end of iron man... i love both films, but to say that ironman or favreau is better because 'character is king', nah i dont buy that... nolan's character development isn't lacking a thing compared to favreau
-
please dont tell me that randy's donuts is an actual chain of restaurants... im not american so i dont know if they have it over there or not... but if its real, then wow... what a shocking spot of product placement advertising. bad boys 2 anyone??
-
How is this going to be a fair fight? From the get go you know Whiplash is going to get his ass kicked. Unless Black Widow has the power to kill with her cleavage, then story-wise, this is going to suck. No doubt the action is going to be good, but even in the first one, the story wasn't that solid. The sequel will reveal the franchises flaws more prominently, just like what happened to Transformers. Everybody was gushing about TF when it first came out, but when all the novelty of seeing giant robots wears off, there isn't really anything of substance to it. It's very likely Iron Man may fall into the same trap. And Edward Norton makes an appearance in this? This movie will be a sure winner is if he turns green. But that ain't gonna happen.

-
damn studios,where do you fucking find your PR people? in elementary schools?
-
You're spot on about Fav championing Character which is why Iron Man was such a joy. What excites me so much about IM 2 is that Fav is building on what worked (character) and improving on what didn't (parts of the action sequences) by having genndy fucking tartakovsky story board the action scenes. This thing is going to be phenomenal!!!!!
-
Thanks a lot guys. It's OUT there now. They can't put the genie back in the bottle.
-
You know how I know you are stupid, estacado1, because of this line:
Everybody was gushing about TF when it first came out
Yeah sure, maybe in your kindergarden class. -
oh shit I forgot all about that! Hellz yes if any of the Iron man fights are half as good as the ones in Samurai Jack and The Clone Wars then we're in for some fucking awesome looking battles.
-
hells. fucking. yeah!
-
TF got a 7.4 on imdb when it deserved a 4.
-
to be a TDK as story and character development are concerned.
Its going to be a summer popcorn movie with more,bigger,louder and a lot of fan-oriented stuff for the audience.
and that is not a good thing,not in my book.not only this means that the movie is going to be very hard to get balanced,but from i understand,it follows strictly the formula of the first movie.
is it going to be a good,fun,summer movie? i am sure it is,but unfortunately its not going to be a TDK movie,and its a pity because tony stark is a very complicated and deep down dark character in the comic universe.

Any time a hard rocking progressive band gets some love it works for me.

i'm surprised its not already posted here since i usually discover that stuff here but there ya go.

Won't top the first, but if it's 80% as good, it will be a success.

He's been awesome since the 80s. 1992's "Chaplin" won me over though. And 2000's "Wonderboys" sealed the deal.

That's usually half the fun of these.
-
...that they postpone the 'demon in a bottle' storyline until right before The Avengers movie, upon which Rhodey will take over as Iron Man while Stark recovers. Therefore, creating a super-cost-effective Avengers movie without RDJ!!! Prove me wrong Hollywood, you assholes.
-
This footage is bloated; they need to trim the political hearings down considerably or it'll slow the film dramatically. Even the clip shown here is too long thematically (this is a superhero film after all). And God help me..but Whiplash looks like ass.
-
its obvious that they have taken the direction of a lighter,funnier,kiddier film version of the comic characters universe.
thats why i said we are not going to have a ala-TDK more mature and darker future movie of IM.
-
i hate having to delete spaces
-
It's still on there, they won't be able to stop people from putting it back up now. War Machine at the end looks kickass.

THOSE 5 MINUTES OF FOOTAGE WERE BETTER THEN ALL OF G.I. JOE!!!FA
by carlthormark1978
The difference is that Favreau actually has taste and knows how to develop a story around the characters rather then the Stephen Sommers/Michael Bay school of hack film making were action takes precedent and the characters are a combo of shitty melodramatics and puns played by a bunch of stiffs.
-
Fuck yeah.............damn I can't go. One of the best movies ever.
-
TDK wasn't the be all and end all of superhero films just because it had "serious" issues apparantly. It had a shit load of other problems, being "dark and serious" doesn't make it perfect or immune to criticism. And in turn doesn't make any superhero film that isn't "dark and serious" just a cheap kid friendly cash grab.
The first IM film managed to be very entertaining whilst touching on some real world issues - IM2, if the court scene is anything to go by, looks like it will expand on that. The government asking him to turn over the iron man suit, his defense that he's a nuclear deterent. Those are interesting real world/superhero cross over issues that we haven't seen in other films.
In all honesty the "demon in a bottle" story isn't anything particularly special. It's seen as more than it is because at the time it was a big deal, giving a Marvel A list hero a serious problem like that that causes him to stay out of action. But it's not particularly well written or played out well. And I'd rather it'd stay out of the film.
ominus talks about it being "difficult to balance" well I think it would be difficult to balance a "man becomes alcoholic" and superhero storyline. All for what I believe to be is little benefit. A character can be realistic and "deep" without having some serious fucked up issue. -

BTW Footage looks very average.... WAR MACHINE LOOKS AWESOME
by ass clown
I was not very excited by this footage at all. To be fair, there is no spoken dialogue and its just a tease of what's to come, but Mickey Rourke's Whiplash looks lame. The only thing in this whole clip montage that had me a bit excited was the brief clip of War Machine blasting his guns. I like Iron Man 1 and have faith in Favreau, but I dont like what Im seeing so far.
-
I'm sure they're holding their cards close to their chest on that one. There's no way he's keeping that crappy outfit for the whole film, he'll definatly upgrade towards the end hence the need for war machine to help take him out.
-
Show some sense of humor, douche.
-
Tarter sauce!
-
Nobody's saying TDK was the best just because it dealt with serious issues, that's just one of like six of the reasons (there are more) that I gave for my nominating it as the best superhero movie thus far.

by ass clown
I was actually starting to buy into some of the hype that this site generated too. No wonder they didn't screen it for critics. I'm proud of myself for not seeing Transformers 2, but I think I will go see this in the theater. I just think its funny that this movie went from looking like shit, to a glimmer of hope, to looking like shit again.
-
war machine will just show up at the end of the movie,saving tonys ass,and then he will try to hold Rourke while IM tries his magic to defeat him and save the day from rockwells whatever doomsday machine.
-
Saying it lessens the belief factor or him being educated an scientist is bulshit. Ever meet a guy who cooks meth. Yeah... His character spent a shitload of time in a russian prision. He started hitting books. It's not hard to believe at all. I mean in this universe a guy flies around in a suit of friggin metal, he's rich as fuck, is smart as hell and he bangs any bitch he desires. Reality..... Gimme a break. You are just talking shit cause your life sucks or something. Rourke's character look cool as fuck.

This is why they didn't show it to anyone apart from AICN, CHUD etc... who could be easily bought with a free screening. I might be wrong but I predict that G.I. Joe will have a massive drop off next week once people realize what shit it is.

Soo they got a free screening to a film that they really think is shit, but because they got to see this shit film for free, they give it a good review as a thank you for seeing a shit film?
Wow that makes so much sense now. -
Just because he hit the books doesn't mean he is privy to brand new technological schematics, the hardware to build it, or the tools. Stark is supposed to be a engineering genius. Are we to assume there are MIT level engineers in Russian prisons with hair extension, gold teeth and bad plastic surgery?
-
Through all the sarcasm, you forgot to make a point. Or what there one in that rant?
-
thank god,howard left from the sequel.one of the drawbacks of the first film.
-
"This is the footage of Garry's scene...This is the footage of Garry's scene...This is the footage that we show as we tease the movie..."
-
The plastic surgery thing is a silly point to make as you can't really take something from an actors personal life and claim it impacts their character. How many films set in ye olde times have you watched where the actors all have perfect white teeth? Holy shit they didn't haev teeth like that years ago how am I meant to believe this shit now?!
As for his prison situation, we're all just bullshitting here. None of us now his background or situation. If I can suspend my belief that Stark can secretly build a suit of armour whilst being watched by terrorists, then I'm sure they've cooked up some reasonably logical reason that whiplash has access to these tools. Hell maybe he's in a similar situation, maybe some russian government organisation give him the tools and equipment to reverse engineer the stark tech whilst in prison because he's the only one they think is capable of doing it and has no legal/moral qualms about it then he turns on them adn busts out of jail with it?
Being intelligent and being in prison or being intelligent and dressing like an 80s punk are not mutually exclusive. I knew a PHD physicist who went out every week to an S&M fetish and Rock club in full leather and combat boots. If we can believe there's a super genius who also happens to be a womanising millionaire playboy, then why not believe there's a genius at the other end of the spectrum? -
I had to use another extension called DownloadHelper though. How did you get it to work on IDM? Everytime I try to download it just downloads an .html or an .xml file. Where are you clicking or what link are you putting in?
I know I said I got it already but this is for future reference. I'm actually new to IDM (got it a couple weeks ago with my Premium RS account). Speaking of, because you're account is not Premium your link could only be used ten times. -
I think the only option any geek has is to suspend their disbelief. Obviously, the tolerance level for suspension of disbelief is going to vary from person to person--perhaps yours is lower than Pilgrim's. For my part, though, I generally try to accept whatever the filmmaker does, within (subjective) reason.
I mean, you could spend hours upon hours nitpicking all the logical inconsistencies from comic book movies. For instance, when the terrorists in Iron Man 1 decided to lock up Stark and force him and Yensin to build the Jericho, how in holy hell does he get away with building a giant robot suit? There's no conceivable way that they could get away with it; yet, for some strange reason, the terrorists see Stark testing out leg prosthetics and think "clearly, he knows what he's doing, so let's just give him the benefit of the doubt." THAT stretches believability.
At some point, a geek simply has to throw up his hands and just take things as they are. And I guess a gold-toothed scientist with hair extensions rotting in a Russian prison--who happens to have massive engineering aplomb--is one of those times when you just accept it, and move on.
I mean, it's not THAT ridiculous. China, during the Cultural Revolution, decided to arrest artists, scientists, writers, professors, and general free-thinkers in order to promote equality and solidarity of their Communist ideals. Russia hasn't done anything that crazy recently, but it isn't much of a stretch to assume that Russia arrested Whiplash because a similarly ridiculous reason. Who knows? -
War Machine just gave me a boner! I didn't expect that. Rourke is my boy, but he was nothing epic like the first time seeing Heath Joker it... But War Machine! I need to see this trailer in HD before I can make final judgements, but so far I still have faith in Favreau

when u install IDM,it also installs its own plugin in FF.check to see if its enabled there.
if its enabled,then normally when u are in a youtube page,a green arrow appears on the top-right corner of the video frame.u click the arrow,and the flv file is automatically downloaded from IDM.
u dont need flashgot for these flv videos,u dont even need to make IDM the default downloader for FF.if the plugin is enabled,u just click the green arrow that appears,thats all. -

I'd like to thank you for your post. Nice to see people can still reason and debate around here without it turning into flamewars. And I agree with you, though I can buy Stark creating the armor in secret a little more than I can buy Rourke, it is in the end all about the willing suspension of disbelief.

Someone get it up

And don’t think for one second that anyone on these sites are above it. People like Knowles and Devin Faraci crave, above all else, access (and cock) because if the studio goes out of their way to cater to them it boosts their ego’s. With G.I. Joe, Paramount had the first in what they hope will be a franchise made by a shitty director (Stephen Sommers) who made his last good movie ten years ago (The Mummy). They suspected that the movie was going to be shit and knew that most mainstream critics would trash it. So they refuse to screen it for any respected critics and, instead, heard a group of fat, unwashed, unshaved pondscum from various geek sites into a free screening two weeks before the movie premiere’s. This, in turn, makes these people feel like hot shit but at the same time they know that if they ever want this sort of access again then they have to blitzkrieg the geek community with bullshit fluff reviews. Further proof. Transformers 2 was no worse then the first movie so why did AICN and CHUD begrudgingly good reviews to the first move while trashing the second? It’s because Paramount catered to these people when the first film was coming out and once the franchise had been established, the studio knew that it didn’t have to waste its PR budget kissing geek ass, so they didn’t. So because Knowles, Faraci and Co. got the shaft they, rightfully, unloaded on the second movie because t was fucking trash while also trying to reestablish their cred after blowing the first movie. When sites like AICN and CHUD first showed up, the studio’s freaked the fuck out because they were worried that instantaneous word of mouth on the internet would kill a lot of the shit movies they regularly shoveled out. Now the studio’s have over ten years of experience with these websites and now know how to wrap them around their little finger.

that KICK-ASS trailer blows this shit outta the water
by zikade zarathos
This looks downright boring. I'm guessing (hoping) they'll pull a SPIDER-MAN 3 and have a "secret" villain that requires both Iron-Man and War Machine. Otherwise... And if Whiplash gets a super suit then what was the point of having him in the first place? Just have Crimson Dynamo or Arsenal and be done with it.
-
EX-ACT-LY!! Thank you for these wise words!
-
Nobody has Cease and Desist emails yet on the Youtube video. In fact, Jon Favreau was asking for feedback on the YT leaked footage and was RTing feedback on his Twitter. And Paramount's Tamar likewise RTed Jon's feedback.
The leaked CC Iron Man 2 footage on YT was likely from someone involved here and this was viral since Jon Favreau is a genius in such online fan promotion.
Don't go telling your readers Paramount asked you to take it down when in fact another AICN editor told you to take it down for fear of Paramount reprisals. -
Whiplash, but no Black Widow.

lockesbrokenleg, I HATED G.I. JOE BUT I LOVED IRON MAN AND I'M..
by carlthormark1978
Looking forward to part 2. Iron Man feels like the first X-Men and Spider-man movies, solid, but nothing that blows your ass off. I'm hoping that Iron Man 2 will match X-Men 2 and Spider-Man 2 as those movies were fucking great. My only worry at this point is that they'll shit the bed with part 3 as X-Men and Spider-man did.

Oh it looks like Spidey 3 - FUCK! Spidey 3 was a huge blockbuster and people outside of this site do like it.

Transformers 2 was far worse than the
first one. That's a fact.. -
everything down. I enjoy all sorts of movies. Iron Man was one of the best damn movies of the past 10 years.
-
I know from the comics Tony Stark has a damaged heart, thus the need for the power source.
In the movie originally the ELECTROMAGNET kept the SHRAPNEL from moving into Starks heart. Then the mini reactor achieved the same goal.
So why the fuck didn't Stark have an operation, using an electromagnet to stabilize the shrapnel, removing the shrapnel?
Why the fuck does the power source suddenly replace his heart. And why the fuck doesn't he die when it is removed?
That was the only unlikeable part of the movie. -

I'm sorry DC fanboys. This looks like a real comic book sequel. Everything about Iron Man is better then Batman. Lets review facts shall we. Mark III armor is better then Batmans suit, check, Robert Downey Jr. can act circles around Christian Bale, check, War Machine > any of Batmans supporting characters(Joker being the only exception), check, Iron mans story line is going to be interwoven with the Avengers movie. Batman's story-line will be the same old bullshit just a different villain. And Whiplash looked great in that trailer. Damn this is going to be sick!

Fuck, man it's a comic book movie. You know, not REAL LIFE.

it's only a matter of time.

Iron man was pretty good, not amazing or anything but pretty good and managed to do a standard superhero origin story with at least some style. (until the end)
But this looks alarmingly by the numbers sequel stuff. Simply didn't care about the electric whips or added miniguns and war machine weaponry (I've seen enough explosions at the Movies this year thanks) and so far there's nothing must see about this.
Yes Rourke can act but he was hiding it well in these sequences, Yes Shandling was good as an asshole Senator but that was mitigated by "what Movie am I in now?" Jackson doing whatever the fuck he's been doing for the last decade.
Hopefully they are saving the best footage and surprises for the Movie and not the trailers but that is an increasingly rare event. Otherwise this is coasting and relying on Downey's performance to save it. -
Avatar footage is out there somewhere.

I think I have those...

For the record I'm 30 and reasonably successful. Comic book movies attract a wide audience when they are well made, hence the resounding success of Iron Man and Dark Knight. I grew up reading comics like most people here, so yes, it excites me to see filmmakers treating the material with respect. Based on that footage, Iron Man 2 looks great, and the negative comments directed at it are laughable and baseless. Now, I'm not certain it will be great, but I'm definitely excited by what I've seen so far.
-
Add me to the chorus. Excellent post. Very astute. Thanks.

Tool gets some light shed on it from a movie. No more of this Breaking Benjamin, linkin park, My chemical romance shit.
-
..and fucking Tool! Since Adam Jones used to be a former employee of Stan Winston, I'm thinking by allowing them to use 46&2 this is his way of paying tribute.
-
Silverchair? Tool? stuck in 1996? WTF I hope they change that for the real trailer. The hearings are boring, I hope the film is not too chatty, and Scarlett still doesn't convince me.
-
looks a lot better than I expected....and fucking WAR MACHINE!
-
Don't care how the early reviewers got to see it, I just wasn't convinced by any of those reviews.
Sure, I'd much rather see Iron Man 2 than G.I. Joe but that's not saying much. -
I wish all parents evidenced the love for there child the way you did.
Oh wait you eviscerated and emasculated him by not letting him take the blows like a man.
Goddamnit you are a horrible stifling parent!
Next time let the whiny little bitch man up! -
search iron man 2 and change uploaded (today) and you'll always be able to get it.
-
Fuck you know Stark had the power source for his heart missing for upwards of twenty minutes.
But it isn't even the power source for his heart just the one powering an electromagnet keeping shrapnel at bay.
That kind of ruins the crawl down stairs, grab f.or the old reactor.
Major weak point. -
There is no good reason to practice censorship. Nothing either moral nor compelling can be ascribed to the activity.
-
Good lord on that War Machine part. YES YES. Iron Man 1 rocked my socks off. The only thing that prevented that movie from being undeniably amazing was the weak 3rd act fight between IronMonger & Iron Man. Everything else was pretty much flawless. The acting, the script, Stan Winston's work, etc... Easily the best comic book movie in a while, and quite a deal better than TDK. Anyway, I'm AMPED to see this. I can't wait for an official trailer. I knew Iron Man 1 was gonna be amazing from the very first trailer - it was just that good. Hopefully I'll get the same vibes again.
-
The old heart thing, there was no power in it, and it was dead. So how the fuck did he use it at the end when it was supposedly out of power?
-
in order to avoid the actual discussion.
-
Fuck. Edit button please?
-
Before TDK everyone compared comic book movies to Spidey 2. Now it's TDK I am sure Iron Man 2 will be vastly different so stop comparing. You can like Dark Knight and Iron Man! These are movies not sports teams.
Anyway I want to guess something about Iron Man. I think Whip Lash will be a small villain at the beginning and at the end will see Mandarin who was set up in the first film. Think about that bald terrorist leader from the first film. His group was called the Ten Rings and all he wanted was the power to dominate the world. I think from the help of the other smaller villians Mandarin rises and that's why war machine comes out and helps Iron Man. Just a guess. -

WAR MACHINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is it true?
-
I'm getting a red alert, right here, this movie is wrong, and I don't know why. Only fool would stand in the way of progress, if-this-is progress.
-
Every comic book talkback turns into DC vs. Marvel. Batman's always been my favorite, and I knew very little about Iron Man when I saw that movie... but I loved every minute of it. I'm not sure why it has to be one or the other.
-
I don't give a fuck.
-
cuz MySpace is for dbags!
-
is stupid. Both have great, iconic characters. Both have classic story lines. Can't we all just get along?! By the way, Iron Man 2 looks amazing. Glad I got to see that footage again; after I saw it on Comic-Con I was hoping it would creep up online soon
-
I hope I'm not banned but since I wasn't licking IM ass from the first film I think I can unbias for a moment!The Bad: Sam Jackson looks and acting like Shaft, except he has an eyepatch! 2nd Bad: Don looks like a midget next to RDJ. Too bad about that Terrance thing.3rd Bad: Rouke looks corny and just dirty!I'm sory if this breaks some geeks heart.The Good: RDJ. He looks like he has no choice but to do most of the heavy lifting! Hopefully Fauvre direction is better than it was in the first IM.
-
Who do AICN thinks its kidding???Anyways, I'm convince that Rachel is not only hotter than Scarlett but she would had made an excellent BW!WTF, is up with BW and that curly-hair shit???
-
til' the day they die and nobody goes to their sad funeral because they were all alone.
-
but Iron Man would kick Batman's ass in a second.
-
To say Batman's character development in 'TDK' is richer than Stark in Iron Man isn't a matter of opinion, it's fucking idiotic. That is all.
-
Was it as 'balsy' as the Hurt Locker ? Cause that's what you've been comparing movies of this genre with. Douche.
-
I'm sorry, but this looks lame as hell. More ham-fisted bullshit from Fraveau and co. Iron Man eating fucking donuts while Shaft tries to contain himself from MOTHERFUCKING him? Lame. Also, that courtroom drama scene ran for far too long, and it actually seemed like a parody of the first movie! Only not funny. There is nothing "cool" about Whiplash; His fucking "outfit" is lame as hell. He looks GAY as fuck. I hope they give him some armor at the end, or someTHING to put on. He looks ridiculous.
-
testing testing testing
Hurm? -
This footage wasn't that exciting. The best part was the 3 seconds of War Machine at the very end. We needed more Scarlett and less Shandling. Bummer...

ANY acting fan has to be excited about Rourke and RDJ
by industrykiller!
Two of the best actors to come out of the 80's. Both of them went through absolute hell in the 90's and both came out the other side as powerhouse genius actors. I could watch either of them read the phone book. It's ridiculous how people get on Rourkes case. The guy went through some bad times, big deal it happens, but he has more than proven he deserves to be on the list of the best today, and I still say he should have taken that Academy award. He may be eccentric but the guy is a charisma bomb, never anything less than utterly interesting to watch. These guys sharing the screen in a comic book film should make any fan of genre filmmaking happy.

I love these oh-so-mature arguments about which superhero is better. "My dad could beat up your dad." Jesus Christ.
-
so the mature and smart one is you.
-
Yes, there is actually a IRON MAN 2 videogame trailer that shows a lot more of the War Monger.
-
Props for the find.
-
We are simply having fun debating the ranking of the superhero movies released thus far. I say, TDK, others say IRON MAN, that's all. I collected both Marvel and DC comics until Dark Knight Returns and Watchmen came out then it was pretty much all independents like Comico and Epic until I went to college in the late 80's and stopped collecting altogether. And for the record, Silver Surfer would kick Plastic Man, Iron Man and Batman's asses altogether.

Best possible quality so far on youtube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DNuugZGITPE

DC more interesting stories,Marvel more interesting charactesrs
by ominus
thats all that is about Marvel vs DC.
-
on a chair without breaking it,and eat a donut.that inconsistence was very apparent at the end of the first movie,when stark was hanging from the broken roof,with his arms.
its the only reality hole of the movie,i simply cant accept. -

and it looks, uh, pretty good.
Answer me this; why did TS reveal he is IM? I don't get it. -
ego.
-
Believe it.
-
With Spidey 2 right behind, then Iron Man, and finally Superman (original). And I'm not counting Graphic Novels. Because then History of Violence would be up in this.
-
In the few seconds he was in he already showed he'll own this picture. Movie looks really fun, my doubts are quelled...for now.
-
holy shit! IM2 looks good too but what's wrong with Millar and co? I really want to see that movie now.
-
I just remember Harry riding in on his white horse and making a really big deal over the people who illegally downloaded Wolverine.
As awesome as this looks! and I am glad I got to see it!!
How was this post any less illegal? Just saying it seems a tad hypocritical of the AICN team! -
It looks like some dude shot it on his cell phone camera, so the quality is kind of wonky. Even with that said, the movie looks great.
-
It weighs more like 60lbs or even less. How the fuck could that much metal possibly weigh a ton? It would have to be denser than lead. It's probably some newfangled ultralight alloy stronger and lighter than titanium. ... He's not actually built out of iron you know.
-
Hell he's probably more plastic than iron if you really think about the materials required (for a real life Iron Man suit, not a movie costume, which is probably just fiberglass panels velcroed onto a leotard.... that's how I'd do it).
-
he crouches as if shitting on a dirty toilet.
-
where he pees and converts it into energy.
-
The leaked footage is still out there. Like right over here for example: http://tinyurl.com/mzzdtp

Iron Man was my favorite superhero flick, since Superman the Movie! Does anyone know when we'll be able to see the trailer?
Al @ www.statuemarvels.com -
Someone should make a documentary on Ironman 1&2's comic con appearances and show it to the studio marketing fucktards as an instructional video on how to sell a movie.
-
Search YouTube for Joss Backpack and look for the familiar image. Should be at the top, not necessarily.
-
is what TDK did in one movie re character and plot and wot not. This isn't a bad thing, it's just different. I agree with what seems to be the general sentiment; I can watch IM and enjoy I can can watch TDK and engross.
-
Autodidact: "It's probably some newfangled ultralight alloy stronger and lighter than titanium."
Does no one remember Stark saying "use the gold titanium alloy from the searaphim (SP?) tactical satellite?" (Which exists, but, isn't that gold looking, and isn't that strong.) I'd bet that the Mark III suit, in-universe, would be around as much as the Mark I costume was in-reality, about 100 lbs.
