Iron Man (2008) Movie

Cap’s Shield in Iron Man? Super Soldier Serum in Hulk?

It looks like the geeks were on full alert during their viewing of “Iron Man”, because they’ve spotted something that can only be seen in the movies — Captain America’s shield apparently made a guest cameo in “Iron Man”, showing up in one of the scenes from the movie (see pic below). The discovery comes [...]

Speed Racer Can’t Outrun Iron Man’s Repulsors

Take this for what you will: The Wachowski Brothers’ “Speed Racer’, their first movie since the third installment of their “Matrix” trilogy in 2003, couldn’t handle Iron Man’s repulsor rays, opening at #2 with an approximate $20 million take, about the same amount as the Ashton Kutcher-Cameron Diaz romantic comedy “What Happens in Vegas”. Meanwhile, [...]

Iron Man Scores $201 million in First Week

To no one’s surprise, Jon Favreau’s “Iron Man” was #1 at the box office over the weekend, making it a bona fide blockbuster hit. Not only did ol’ shellhead pull in an astounding $104 mil in the U.S. box office, but the film also raked in an equally impressive $96.7 million in overseas receipts, for [...]

Iron Man (2008) Movie Review

Hollywood has been mining the comic book shelves for quite some time, but has been hitting it particularly heavily over the last decade. Everything from the classics to the new-age stuff has been tapped at one time or another (several times, even), but they’ve met with mixed results. For every “Batman Begins,” there [...]

Bootleg Nick Fury Cameo in Iron Man Video

After a lot of talk and debate and rumor mongering, it turns out that Samuel L. Jackson will be showing up at the end of “Iron Man” in a brief cameo as Nick Fury, Agent of SHIELD, who comes to Tony Stark aka Iron Man to talk about “the Avengers Initiative”. The scene takes place [...]

Nick Fury Cameo in Iron Man Confirmed — SPOILERS

Apparently that much ballyhooed Nick Fury (as played by, of course, Samuel L. Jackson) cameo in the upcoming “Iron Man” was missing from advancing screenings Paramount held for critics, because I’ve read on a number of sites that have reviewed the film that Nick Fury does not have a cameo. Not true, says Australian moviegoers, [...]

Jon Favreau Talks Iron Man Sequels

Let’s face it, boys and girls, only an act of God will stop the coming of an “Iron Man” sequel or two after the first one opens in theaters in a few days and blows the doors off the box office. And even God will probably be a fan of ol Shellhead. There is just [...]

Some More Iron Man Clips

Jon Favreau’s “Iron Man” doesn’t open until May 2, 2008, but I’ve somehow already become committed to taking a bunch of nephews to see this thing. Sigh. The joys (or is that pains?) of unclehood. In any case, here are some more “Iron Man” clips released by the studio to get the fans all excited [...]

Take a Tour of Iron Man’s Mansion

Suffering from “Iron Man” overload yet? Well you’re gonna. The latest marketing tool is a “tour” of Iron Man’s mansion, or more accurately, Tony Stark’s mansion with director Jon Favreau as your host. It’s only a two-minute or so clip, and doesn’t reveal anything except the magic of moviemaking. Sort of. And yes, in case [...]

Iron Man Clip: Run Before You Can Walk

Tony Stark doesn’t do anything normal — he runs before he can walks, for instance. Check out this clip from Jon Favreau’s movie, as Tony Stark tests out his Iron Man suit for the very first time. “Handles like a dream”, he says. Yeah, right. Looks cool as hell, though. “Iron Man” opens May 2, [...]

New Iron Man Pics Blow’em Up Real Good

A fresh batch of “Iron Man” pics have showed up online, although I’m not sure how long these will last before the original site, Superhero Hype gets a kind letter from Paramount threatening to sue them if they don’t remove the pics. After all, Paramount didn’t go through the trouble of stamping those huge “Paramount” [...]

Say Hello to Iron Man’s Iron Monger

You’ve probably seen him move around in the trailers, but here are a couple of new pictures of Iron Monger (thumbnail to your left, bigger versions below), the supervillain (I guess you could call him that, right?) in Jon Favreau’s upcoming “Iron Man” movie. Yeah, I know, he looks kind of shitty compared to the [...]

First Look at Iron Man’s War Machine Toy

Is this our first look at War Machine from the upcoming “Iron Man” movie? Probably. We already know that Terrence Howard will be playing Jim Rhodes in Jon Favreau’s movies, and comic book readers know that Rhodes actually impersonated Iron Man for a time. Stark had built the War Machine for himself, but Rhodes took [...]

Yet More Iron Man Images

A new batch of “Iron Man” pictures for ya. Some new, some old, some that are repeats of what I posted before, but since it’s been a while and I have posted way too many “Iron Man” images over the year or so, I really have no idea. And is it me, or is the [...]

Everybody who is interested in comic book movies and has a movie blog have been talking about the upcoming cross-cover cameos by characters from the two upcoming Marvel movies, “The Incredible Hulk” and “Iron Man”.

More Iron Man Posters

Is this the final “Iron Man” movie poster? Um, I don’t know, people are saying it is, but considering my track record with movie posters, I’m going to go the cautious route and add the question mark behind it. (Hey, I’m a wimp, so what of it?) In any case, if this is the final [...]

Brand Spanking New Iron Man Trailer

Well, it’s finally here, the brand spanking new “Iron Man” trailer that was promised to be shown with ABC’s Lost. It’s nothing overly new, and you’ve probably seen parts of it in the Superbowl trailer, but it does punch up the comedy a little bit more. Plus, and you can’t say it often enough — [...]

Iron Man to Lead Into Avengers Movie

If you’re a comic book fan, or a fan of superhero movies, then you gotta totally dig what Marvel is doing with their comic book movie properties. We already know (though they haven’t been officially confirmed) that various characters will be appearing in the upcoming “Hulk” and “Iron Man” films, and now “Iron Man” director [...]

Friday is Iron Man Pics Day

I’ve decided that Friday is going to be “Iron Man” day, and I’m going to close out the week’s posting with some new “Iron Man” stills from the movie, and a very groovy looking poster that shows the evolution of Shellhead’s Iron Men, if you will. Check them out below. There was also supposed to [...]
