    Well, I stumbled across a report of an Iron Man 2 footage release for press here. The idea of Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow brings twitches to the loins. Apparently the ugly mug Micky Rourke went to a Russian prison in order to 'gain character'.

    Moar Iron Man 2 news (but not really): Terrance Howard as Jim "Rhodey" Rhodes is out, Don Cheadle is in, and a new poster is out.

    Also, according to the Yahoo article reporting on the casting change, Howard was the highest-paid actor in the first film.

    I'm sorry, but what the fuck??.

    I love Cheadle: awesome actor, and one of the most humble people in Hollywood. But I'm all about continuity in movies, and having to re-cast really pisses me off (e.g. The Dark Knight and Maggie Gyllenhal). That being said: who the fuck are you and where do you get off, Howard? He can only claim 'Crash' and 'Hustle & Flow' (an ensemble cast that overshadowed him and a stereotypical black movie, respectively), but the rest of his career is littered with fail. Yet despite that, and his relatively minor role in Iron Man 1, he earned more than Downey, Jr., Jeff 'The Dude' Bridges, AND Gwyneth "I-wore-5-inch-"fuck-me-over-the-desk"-heels-throughout-this-entire-movie' Paltrow??

    In case you didn't understand me:

    In conclusion: Fuck you, Terrance Howard, for ruining my continuity over some diva shit that you haven't earned, for a role that wouldn't require an academy award-winning performance.

    Other than that, I'm stoked for May 7th.

    It was announced months ago that Terrance Howard was being replaced.

    Some of us aren't as quick on the uptake. ;) Or rather, some of us don't really pay attention to these things until later; after everyone else and their grandma knows.

    Also, I would gladly take her up on the offer her heels provide.

    Ironman reminds me of Batman.

    Must be the rich guy+fancy superhero suit+fighting crime motif.


    Definitely pumped for the sequel, though. :D

    It would remind you of Batman even more, if they hadn't made Jarvis an AI/House Computer. Still... always loved Iron Man and very pleased to hear about this next one coming up.

    SO here's a question; who exactly is the lightning whips guy? I'm a Marvel fan but not an avid Marvel fan; so could someone enlighten me?

    The closest I think of is that Omega Red guy.

    Looks like they changed the actor for that one Air Force dude and gave it to Don Cheadle. Same with Pepper.

    Nick Fury is not amused by your Snakes on a Plane.

    Pepper's played by the same chick.

    EDIT: Beaten by Blaise, so this post is now repurposed...

    So, uhh... looks decent enough. The trailer ending with that little snippet of Black Sabbath's Iron Man was awesome, as always.

    Ghetto trailer yanked. Awesome official trailer. "You complete me" made me laugh my ass off. Kinda ruins the epicness of Stark's chest piece power when some tool in Russia makes his own in a machine shop though.
