So its Comic-Con footage but still pretty damn cool. I wonder how much Ozzy (Sharon actually) got to let them use that old Sabbath song. Really thought, this is a super hero movie different enough that it will not feel like a retread. Love it and love the possibilities.

So do all of these crappy superhero flicks when you first see them in the trailers. Not to mention that Iron Man comics are just something you read when you've gone through your whole stack of Avengers comics.
I think...just maybe...they got this right...

... but other than that-- this thing looks GREAT! Love the shot of Stark running through the desert with the explosions and the fucking visual and audio effects of him in the final suit look and sound fantastic. Was never a huge fan of the Man (he was always something of a second fiddle comic in my opinion) but I want to see this! Good job so far, Fav! Like my opinion of Iron Man as a comic, I've never been a big fan of your stuff but you've got my money now. Pleasant travels to ya, lad!
Looks solid - I hope it's great...

The choice of playing Iron Man over IM's appearance and at the end is just sooooo fuckin obvious. I can imagine a 4th grader comin up with THAT idea. "Hey dude, wouldn't it be, like, cool if, like, when they fuckin showed Iron Man they, like, play Iron Man from Black Sabbath, dude! Fuck Yeah, dude!" I just hope they keep this to the teaser only and outta the movie.
Absolutely fucking perfect

I'm not a comic book fan, and had no interest in this movie whatsover until I saw that trailer. The composition is nice, the jokes are funny and not corny, and the Black Sabbath sold me.
Wow. Actually excited about this for the first time.

Never been a fan of the comics, thought the film looked shit, but fucking hell, Downey's performance just totally knocked my socks off. This looks fun as hell :) (The flying shots still looked a bit lame though)

I can only remark, with some surprise, that this looks lovely. Though it has a few too many of those greasy, half-dead corporate movie-making fingerprints on its pretty little face, this feels like what effects-heavy filming making ought to be: transportive.

I hope he flies around a lot.

This trailer has me sold on the movie. I'm seeing this. Downey Jr, had me laughing at the beginning. I'm not sure how convincing it would be for for Stark to build a suit under his captors noses, and the use of the Black Sabbath song was cheese all the way, but beyond that, I'm looking forward to it. I love how when he's flying it's like a jet plane. Seems much more agile than a Superman. - n/a
What about the Filter song?
by DOGSOUP
Sep 10th, 2007
05:36:20 AM
I thought I'd be annoyed with 'Hey Man Nice Shot' but it's really been long enough where the first few chords playing in a trailer didn't bother me. Best use of the song was still in Demon Knight. What? I thought we're talking about songs?!

Is this a comedy or something?, with the stupid wisecracks at the start or that lame suit that he just happens to build while he was kidnapped with out his captors knowing! lol. I know next to nothing about the comics or the character so maybe this is true to the comics but that just looked dumb and laughable imo.

Yeah BombTwat, that's actually what this movie is all about...American War propaganda. You do realize that Tony Stark learns the errors of his ways, ie the pompous idiot in the beginning of the movie? Ridiculous.

Aah right so he is supposed to be a wise ass at the start,i get it now and the trailer does seem a little bit better now. That suit he builds still looks ridiculous though and i honestly couldn't stop laughing when he burst through that door in the suit!, i hope the film makers play those scenes a little 'tounge in cheek' as i think most audiences will find scenes like that hilarious!.

Should be interesting, but I dont see much of a movie if they're making ironmonger the main villain...i think favreau said something about mandarin but have yet to see anything in photos or footage.

where he built that suit, in a cave. They didn't want to make it too far advanced looking, at least anymore than a guy in a cave can make a suit to begin with.
I love the critiques this is getting . . . .
by amaysingstories
Sep 10th, 2007
07:36:50 AM
He looks like the Rocketeer! (Well it is a guy flying around with the assist of rockets in his boots.) That first suit looks ridiculous! (Well, it is bulky and cobbled together from the parts of a missile he was supposed to be building. Did you expect Art Deco? Or perhaps more of an Ikea aesthetic? Manga mecharobo? It's Iron Man's origin - the best mix of homage and realism they could have possibly achieved.) Stark is a dick, and then he's not! (It's called a character arc, and this is a trailer, so of course they're going to focus on the zingers in the dialog - they only have a few seconds to hint at said arc before you flip the channel.)

Face it - this is the most respectful, exciting adaptation of any genre property I've seen in years. My anticipation for this is far above and beyond what I have for the Dark Knight. It looks fun. It looks like they're treating the property with respect. And it looks awesome with the practical effects and, yes, the CGI Rocketeery flying man-in-suit (I love the independently operating control surfaces!). Iron Man is going to be THE movie to see, so stop hating, get off your better-than-thou critique couches, and, oh, I don't know, try to remember what it was like to just look forward to a movie before you became so freakin' jaded.

thank god they didnt get some shitty band to cover it
by lilgorgor

I was just kidding around when I was saying are we gonna get to see the old Iron Man suit, but damn, I wasn't really expecting to see it. This movie is gonna rule and I'm not one to be impressed so easily. This is seriously looking to blow all the other Marvel properties (yes even Spiderman) away.
I thought Transformers.....
by mastes360
Sep 10th, 2007
08:19:59 AM
was just ok, not great but not bad, what does that have to do with me thinking that early Iron Man suit looked hilarious?. I was just trying to say that scene was laughable and i hope they play it that way (maybe with a few wisecracks from Downey) or i could see audiences laughing at the film in parts for all the wrong reasons, same with the critics. I'm sorry if i hurt your feeling though.

You know, like in A CLOCKWORK ORANGE or that recent episode of LOST?

I will say, though, that it's a good thing the actress playing the interviewer at the beginning is attractive because she certainly can't act for shit.

by SpyGuy
Sep 10th, 2007

Especially since he's been a tremendous fascist dick since CIVIL WAR, so any hopes of bringing in some new IRON MAN fans may be lost unless Tony is revealed to be a Skrull imposter or something.

The goofy-looking clunky Iron Man suit is straight out of the original depiction of IM's origins in the old Marvel Comics. In that version, Tony Stark is injured while supervising the field-testing of weapons his company developed by the U.S. Army in Vietnam (wisely updated to Iraq/Afghanistan, in my opinion). He is captured by a local military leader who recognizes him and locks him in a lab with a local scientist to build a weapon for him. Stark's life is already on the line because he has a chunk of shrapnel in his chest. He ends up secretly building an armored suit that will act as a life-support mechanism, as well as facilitate his escape. It get tweaked into the slicker, superhero version of the armor when he gets back to the States.

Right from the first announcement, it seemed like Marvel made one smart move after another with this one. The director, the cast, that cool as fuck looking suit, and now this excellent teaser. Maybe I'm setting myself up for disappointment but I'm going to leap onboard with just pillow talk and say I am fucking psyched about this film. Please bear in mind I am English and not prone to words like psyched - but I am prepared to give it a go just this once. It's a special occasion!

You know, I'm going to put my cards on the table here and say I'm looking forward to Iron Man more than I am The Dark Knight. Maybe it's because it's an unkown quantity and I kind of know what I'm going to get from Nolan's film, but this is the big summer blowout for me.

Woo-hoo! Iron Man and that!

Favreau made Iron Man LOOK, MOVE, and SOUND 10 times cooler than the Fantastic Four, Doctor Doom and the SILVER SURFER combined! That's how it should be done Marvel suits. Fav just propeled himself into the same league as Raimi and Nolan.

IronMan - PG13

This aint gonna be anything other than a PG-13 cartoon, impressive and all as the suit, visuals, etc were - the main fight seems to be a showdown with a bigger iron-man-suit/robot/whatever it is that is moving much too like the terminator in the original Terminator - could be fun but, ya know, it looks liek its gonna be PG-13 fun...

I'm not. The trailer was a piece of ever loving... you get the picture. I loved the comic-con footage, but maybe that was because everyone was excited about it and it was crappy quality and the fans cheering. Going along with the flow of it for a bit, but the trailer really does suck. The song is the worst of it.

Didn't have much faith in this film... until that trailer. I liked Downey - in the role - he pulls off the aloof playboy to a tee - but it also seems that he can be a bit of a badass as well, albeit with a ton of steel (or is it iron?) strapped to him. Will be first in line for this one.
Visually, it looks fantastic.

Hiring Matthew Libatique was a stroke of genius. I liked the trailer for the humour and for the visuals, but it felt more like a trailer for fans than for the general public. Is that a bad thing? I don't know, but if they used better music towards the end of the trailer it would have worked a LOT better in terms of building up to an epic climax. As is, it feels like they just slapped on the Black Sabbath song because, hey, it's about Iron Man! It's a little distracting in its corniness.

It seems to me that BS "Iron Man" as a background piece is a foregone conclusion. It's a bad-ass, classic, iconic metal anthem, and this is eponymous metal dude we've all been salivating over. If it wasn't here, and it wasn't on the soundtrack (trust that it will be) you'd all be griping about them missing the opportunity, or how they cheesed out on ponying up the cash for the tune.

Iron Man and Iron Man go together - you can't get around it (even though the words don't track with the story). It works well in the limits of the trailer, they didn't overdo it, and it'll be nice to hear it when the end credits are scrolling up in front of my amazed eyes on opening night.

I gotta agree (minus the humour - doesn't work for me) with brokentusk: it looks like a trailer for the fans. Moreover, for the *suspicious* fans: the whole comic-con footage was supposed to sell us Downey as Stark, as in "I told ya so, he's perfect for the role", but I don't know many fans who weren't already pumped up by this casting choice. The fact that they chose again to focus on Tony, and show just a glimpse of the supporting cast even if Paltrow, Howard and Bridges will be their marketing trump card is beyond me. I mean, I register as a fan so I don't care, but some of my friends (who qualify as "general, mainstream audience") never saw ANY Downey flick except my KKBB DVD and to them the other actors would've been more appealing than good ol' Downey. I'm skeptical about the way Paramount handles this: to keep the teaser at this unusual length, and give more screen time to Leslie Bibb (which is not exactly a waste, but still...) and pass on three fucking oscar nominees including one winner... Strange.

BTW, the CC footage logo was WAYYY better, and the practical shots of the Mk.I are even more amazing in 1080p.

If you've got some guy in a near-invincible tecno-suit - put some other guy in an EVEN BIGGER techno-suit and let them beat the piss out of each other. See - that's waht Singer was missing in Superman Returns . . .ah . . .wait - that's esentially how they finished off Superman 4, isn't it? Okay, maybe the secret is to make the equally-powered opponent at the end of the movie not look like a complete douchebag. A bald Jeff Bridges? Yeah, that works. Bring on Iron Man!

...thanks to the DB/Pro and Marvel split. So I can still say at this point that I've never been a Marvel writer, but I am a small press creator, a subscriber to Iron Man comics, and an artist at the core. So as someone on the 'inside' of the industry I think this movie will be a hit because of it's faithfulness to the material. I'm saddened that the modernization puts this in Afghanistan and not Asia, but Stan Winston's suits look amazing as do the CG FX. If anyone else out there is a fan of comics or of comic book art check out that Adi Granov "punching the ground" pose that they snuck in there.

And I just realized, this just might be one of my most enjoyable comic-film experiences because I know NOTHING about the comic. There will be none of my usual anal nit-picking because I'm finally going to see one where I don't know the source material. The only Iron Man story I will ever know will be told on film in 08.

Oh ok, I guess we'll go with .. hum... OH! Autralian Backpackers!! Yeah now that's a threat !!!

Wake up, most terrorists these days are arabs...

Doesn't mean that they all are for those of you who will jump at this!... I've got an algerian uncle who's figured out that he ain't in his home country so now he lives as any other north american would live.

But the state the world is in right now, most of the bombs that are explosing in cities are caused by their Muslim Movement who can't figure out that their religion is not the only one in the world and they just can't accept it so they blow shit up killing innocent lives. Then you add a crazy ass President who's as crazy as them going in and getting military people killed for the sake of a buck.

The arab terrorist works fine with this picture, just like when Iron Man was created, they were in Vietnam and the bad guys were Vietnamese. Would you have said the same thing if you went back then? Who the hell would you have liked to see be the bad guys to go to war against in this movie? Suedes? Mexicans? Scots? Turkish? Don't be ridiculous...

Favs just made this movie as of today so, we're in the desert go with that story line... In 20 years from now if they remake the Iron Man origin story, they'll use whoever is out there battling it out with some other country... Welcome to Movie Making...

If you can't figure that out... go to sleep...

GOtta agree here with you again 'bout the good Superman represents. And the fact he did not throw a punch.

But at the same time Singer crapped all over the character's essence. Perry should be more aggressive with his journalists, here he looks like he's on medication; Jimmy is just a "gosh oh golly Mr Kent" type of dumbass character with no soul; Kent was closer to the animated corpse of Bernie with his 7 lines of dialogue and continuously doing nothing else than hanging around Jimmy at the planet or at the bar, oh and escorting Lois out to a cab..; Lois is a shitty mother who brings her son to dangerous situations and she's freaking 17 yrs old with a 5 yrs old son and a Pulitzer?; Superman is a Peep Freak who looks in other people's homes.

So yes, Superman is about good and all, but Singer's Supes ain't good.

I really wish they would have stuck with Vietnam and kept it out of modern times. Why does every superhero film have to be "updated" for the masses? I'm not saying I didn't like what I saw, but it's time to start doing these films right, and stick to the fucking source material.

I heard the opening bars of one-hit-wonder Filter, the "hey man nice shot" song we all know from every 90's action movie while Stark is hammering the metal in the terrorist workshop, and I audibly GROANED, but then, NO! It's not wussy-ass Filter! It's Duuu Duuu Du Du Duuuu! IRON MAN for the IRON MAN TRAILER!!! hilarious. I'm there. I would have liked to see some repulsor ray action though.

I never was the biggest Iron Man fan as a kid, but damned if that doesn't look like it could potentially be one of the best comic-to-screen films yet! (I do wonder, with the casting of Robert Downey Jr, they didn't make Tony Stark's heart problems stem from years and years of booze and blow). Man that just looks super cool, like the Fonz with a tattoo of Roy Orbison on his ass cool! Next Summer is shaping up to be killer with Bats and Jokes, Starkie boy, and Crystal Skulls. Hopefully they live up to expectations moreso than the flicks from this summer's sequel flooded affair.

After the Sci-fi Channel Movie of the Week quality to FF and Spidey, this trailer has set my 'nads a blazin'. I'm sure everyone had the same reaction when Favreau got the gig..."hmmm, not my first choice, but interesting...." This trailer screams volumes. Marvel head office honchos be damned, this movie looks dead-on. Er, I hope. I think my fingers will atrophy if they remain crossed until May...
God I hope they follow this with an Avengers

with Cap. If it can be done with just the right balance of Ultimates and classic Avengers it can be perfect. And for God's sake, start promoting some connectivity between the other franchises. Someone needs to fix the FF, badly. What a horrible waste - those movies could be HUGE.

some of THE most ame-ass complaints ever!
by thebluerosekiller
Sep 10th, 2007
02:56:02 PM
All right, you have one of THE most well known, iconic heavy metal songs ever that's titled "Iron Man", one that pretty much every Marvel comics reading kid in the world has identified with the superhero for decades ( even though it doesn't have anything to do with Marvel's charecter as has already been established here earlier ) & you really expect the filmmakers to NOT use it 'cause some folks might think it's "too obvious" or ( God Forbid! ) "cheesy"? C'Mon! And the use of "Arab villians" is cliche? On top of the film looking "too military friendly"? Um, the charecter of Tony Stark is an international arms dealer & industrialist. With HEAVY emphasis on the arms dealer part. He has been since the charecter was concieved by Stan Lee back in the early sixties. So, how exactly were they supposed to adapt Tony Stark aka IRON MAN to the screen without making him "military friendly"? As for the film's early villains being from the middle east, again, how exactly were they supposed to update the charecter & show the origin of Ironman without doing so? Last I knew billionare weapons designers & manufacturers for the USA aren't welcomed in North Korea, so THAT wouldn't have worked ... Lastly, what's with all the griping about the "silly looking" grey armor "mach 1" suit? It's a beautiful rendition of the source material's original suit. Saying it's "silly" is pretty much like calling Kal-El's arrival in a spaceship on a Kansas farm "silly". Of course it's not exactly believable, it's an adaption of a comic book! The very idea behind enjoying such is a suspension of one's disbelief.

It's just right amount of the song to keep it from going overboard. And it suits the tone of the trailer (all the one-liners). "I am Iron Man" over the logo at the end... it's the kind of thing that plays well to a theater full of people (non-geeks included) It let's you know right away that the movie is gonna be a ride. It went over like gangbusters at Comic-Con. If it ain't broke, don't fuck with it.

Sep 10th, 2007
06:31:11 PM
I didn't mind the fact that there are Middle-Eastern terrorists in this movie. I mean, it WOULD be nice if one day Hollywood would make a movie that doesn't make us all out to be "Koran-thumping terrorists" or "decadent sultans of evil" (I kinda like that last one, actually ^_^ ). Truth be told, it really doesn't matter as long as the story is done right. I have some Southeast Asian friends who enjoy Iron Man comics; they don't care that his comic origin involved being captured by Vietnamese terrorists, they just like the character and the stories. I grew up reading American comics. My mom grew up reading mostly American comics. My entire Muslim family (Indian and Pakistani, I was the first American born) loved American comic books. And we didn't mind any of the "racist" shit. It was all good entertainment that didn't want to offend anyone. And that's what I think this movie is. I liked this trailer (I went apeshit when Sabbath played). I'm gonna go see the fucking movie. And if sometime between now and then, someone makes a movie that doesn't have stereotypes, I'll go see that too...if it looks good. ^_~

Puh-lease, Sabbath's I.M. song is incredibly appropriate and most cool for the film. I'm sure they'll just use it in the end credit roll, like the classic Spidey cartoon theme. The trailer has started to restore my faith in Marvel movie adaptations. Let's hope this isn't just a case of premature ejaculation and Paramount blowing their load on the trailer. Lastly whoever speculates that the Mark III armor appearance is simply a teaser at the end for the next film, look at the state of the armor while it's being tailed by those jets, it's got some battle scars on the helmet. There's gonna be some serious fighting going on in that armor.

Wake up, UnTrue Believers! That Black Sabbath IRON MAN tune was for the masses that grew up hearing it all over the world. More people know that tune (vaguely or whole-heartedly) than know of Iron Man the Marvel Comic book character. It's a brilliant use of a pop (yes, its heavy metal statis achieved that decades ago) tune that gets the message out along with a tremendous trailer by Marvel and Co. My armoured helmet is tipped to the Mighty Marvel Marching Society on this one!

Sure the villains are stereotype, but that's because we are currently at war with plenty of people like that. If these film was in the 40's German Nazi's would be villains, and in the 70's the vietnamese. I don't think there is a problem with stereotypes in this case because it is also a reality. Like I said I don't have a problem with muslim's in general but if you are testing a weapon in the middle east right now you probablly aren't gonna get attacked by the Swiss Army.
