Iron Man 2 Official Pictures, News, Gossip, Etc

[Shadow-Guardian]

Screw it. I keep trying to cool everyone down, and nobody listens. I'm outta here. Thanks for ruining the night, Keyser.

[bossman550]

Must be summer heat frying hypsters brain cells

[protocida]

Calm down, Shadow! Right now, you're the only one causing problems, man!

[BobJM]

People, listen. If we want to get back on topic, having Keyser explaining th CC footage and how AWESOME it was is not going to help. SO stop bragging about it, and let's move on.

This is a thread to discuss official news and gossip.

The footage shown at SDCC fits both those categories perfectly. So if you're getting livid hearing about what Keyser saw, don't come to this thread.

I want to hear it. I want to see it just as badly as you do, but picking fights isn't going to change the fact I didnt go to the convention nor will the footage be released. And if it should somehow come online, believe you me, I'll be ecstatic.

There's no need to shoot the messenger.

[bossman550]

Keyser dammit
look what ur causing

[protocida]

And thus, we end the discussion.

Hey, guys, Mark V! How? When? Why? Share your ideas!

[BobJM]

Bossman, don't cause problems. It's not Keyser's fault.

ANd protocida, lol, I respect you're attempts at playing peacekeeper. The Mark IV looks great. Very sleek. Very cool.

[Aesop Rocks]

I enjoy the new suit very much so. :)

[bossman550]

How and why: build it to take down ? in final battle
when:end of movie

[Skyline212]

Yea the suit is awesome!!!!!

[protocida]

Me too. :)

I gotta say, the triangular chest piece from the (rumored) Mark V is growing on me. It just looks cool. :woot:

[Aesop Rocks]

I totally agree, I'm stuck here wishing that was how the chest piece was on the Mark III.

[Keyser Soze]

Screw it. I keep trying to cool everyone down, and nobody listens. I'm outta here. Thanks for ruining the night, Keyser.

You're welcome. :grin:

[protocida]

DAMMIT, KEYSER. THIS WAS ALREDY SETTLED! :cmad: :csad:

[batman11]

I must say, I'm really glad that everyone's been so civilized about the footage. We wouldn't want any "craziness" to spread throughout the thread. :)

[craigdbfan]

Thank you Kesyer for unintentionally getting rid of the main contributer to the whining spree.

This thread had been overtaken by giblet heads.

Thanks to constant baby cries for the footage this thread has/is falling into a perpetual cycle of whining and then someone responding to their crying.

[Hunter Rider]

:yay:

[bossman550]

Keyser for the sack of shh shut up

[Son of Coul]

STOP FiGHTING!!!

[Aesop Rocks]

Hunter! I love your avy!

[Shadow-Guardian]

I love how he keeps being rude to me after I've left, and everyone thanks him. You guys are absolutely twisted.

[Keyser Soze]

Thank you Kesyer for unintentionally getting rid of the main contributer to the whining spree.

This thread had been overtaken by giblet heads.

Thanks to constant baby cries for the footage this thread has/is falling into a perpetual cycle of whining and then someone responding to their crying.

No worries, and sorry for contributing to the cycle. Now that we're past that confrontation, I'll get to work on that trailer report I was going to write up before I got sidetracked.

[protocida]

Anyone who fights below this message is Hitler.

[Aesop Rocks]

Like, a homosexual?

[John Locke]

Hunter! I love your avy!
Ditto.

Wow this thread is pretty chaotic the Joker would be proud.:hoboj:

[Shadow-Guardian]

I think the Mark V will come at the end. I'd like some kind of cliffhanger ending. Sorta like the after credits ending of the first one. Maybe some new threat arises and Tony builds a new one. I hope it's the Mandarin.

[craigdbfan]

No worries, and sorry for contributing to the cycle. Now that we're past that confrontation, I'll get to work on that trailer report I was going to write up before I got sidetracked.

Ever since the footage premiered at Comic Con I wanted to read the impression from SHH members.

Looking forward to reading your write up. :up:

[protocida]

Like, a homosexual?
No, like a nazi.

[Dark Helmet]

Here is the footage

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mDcDpKHwQWg

[Hunter Rider]

So any news on when we may get a teaser trailer?

Hunter! I love your avy!

:up:

[BobJM]

hahah dammit i got excited at the marvel logo

[Aesop Rocks]

Nuke bomb i am dead no respawn holy spit.

[Aesop Rocks]

Haha, Rick roll to Tom Cruise dancing.

And just when the drama was over.

Only on Hype!

[BobJM]

oh here's a picture of Crimson Dynamo from the Iron Man 2 line...no one looked at this at the Mickey Rourke thread.

You're an idiot.

[Aesop Rocks]

That CD figure. Hmm....

[protocida]

I shall melt you in a burning forge of hate, Dark Helmet.

Looks pretty crap. Hope the real suit is nothing like it.

[el_chupacabra]

So............where is the footage?

[Shadow-Guardian]

I don't think they'll do a CD armor just like that. That might just a misc figure or a video game figure. They did the same with black and green guy from the first game.

[BobJM]

clearly not here, chupacabra

[bossman550]

In my butt come and get it jk

[Shivsguy616]

When is this new photo coming out? They said tonight, but that was yesterday.

[Aesop Rocks]

On my way trooper~

[Skyline212]

Could a teaser come with district 9?????

[BobJM]

doubtful.

[el_chupacabra]

hehehehehehehe ok so if in the trailer Rhodes is getting weapons from Hammer does that mean Rhodes goes against Stark for a short period of time or does Hammer switch sides to help Stark out??

[Shadow-Guardian]

Is everyone ignoring me?

[bossman550]

Omg I just saw my mom on tv!

[BobJM]

i think the general consensus here is that war machine and iron man duke it out close to the end, with wm finally realizing that he's wrong and thereby joining im fight whoever the baddie is for the climax.

[BobJM]

Is everyone ignoring me?

you haven't said anything...?

[bossman550]

I don't kno, I'm not

[Keyser Soze]

Here is the footage

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mDcDpKHwQWg

Well, it IS written by Justin Theroux...

[Spider-ManHero12]

I'd love to see civilwar but imaging that cast tho That would go into "company rights" hell. As a CGI film, it could work. Live action? HIGHLY unlikely to happen.

[Skyline212]

i think the general consensus here is that war machine and iron man duke it out close to the end, with wm finally realizing that he's wrong and thereby joining im fight whoever the baddie is for the climax.

Yea I agree

[Shadow-Guardian]

I wonder what Whiplash's armor will look like later on in the movie.

[Aesop Rocks]

Like Crimson Dynamo.

[BobJM]

My guess is that it'll be crimson colored.

[Skyline212]

I hope it's f'n awesome

[el_chupacabra]

yeah but I always wanted there to be a total battle royale at the end of the movie with wm taking on a few Russian tank squadrons on the Russian tundra as im and whiplash/crimson dynamo go toe to toe with each other!

[Wesley Dodds]

Are we sure he'll have armour at all?

[bossman550]

Which cd costume

[Shadow-Guardian]

I wonder if it will be just IM's armor but all red, or if it'll be it's own design.

[BobJM]

sounds very cool and we may get something like that.

except probably not on the tundra and wm should probably fight american tanks (symbolize his alliance to his friend above all else)

[BobJM]

is SHH on the fritz or something tonight? my posts keep doubling and they take forever to actually load.

[Skyline212]

I'm sure they did a whole new design

[bossman550]

That would go into "company rights" hell. As a CGI film, it could work. Live action? HIGHLY unlikely to happen.

Stillawesome tho

[el_chupacabra]

well i'd assume that it will be all red because I figure Rourke's character will still be a fan of the Soviet Union and there has to be some armour because it will be really far fetched that a coulple of electrified whips can take on the most advanced combat suit ever devised by man! lol

[el_chupacabra]

also be cool seeing some areial dogfights with some MiG 29's and Su-27's and such! lol

[craigdbfan]

Are we sure he'll have armour at all?

Yeah he will. Jon confirmed there will be updates on his suit as the move progresses.

In a similar way that Tony Stark did with his various Mark armor.

[Shadow-Guardian]

So are we not getting the damn set thing tonight or what?

[el_chupacabra]

So are we not getting the damn set thing tonight or what?

patience my young apprentance

[Shadow-Guardian]

Forgive me, master. I've just been so frustrated with the council.

[el_chupacabra]

I get fustrated too but I look at some porn to help me get by!

[Shadow-Guardian]

Easy. Let's not discuss porn here. Mods'll go nuts.

Slow night tonight. Nothing happening.

[marvel_freshman]

Yeah he will. Jon confirmed there will be updates on his suit as the move progresses.

In a similar way that Tony Stark did with his various Mark armor.

Where did Jon Confirm that, because I remember hearing jon say he didn't want ever battle to be armor Vs Armor. I think that WHiplash should only have upgraded armor if there isn't an epic battle between Iron Man and War Machine.

[el_chupacabra]

well when it happens it happens, I look forward seeing it and I know it will be better than my expectations!

[el_chupacabra]

I think there has to be some Armor on Armor fighting because people don't want to see the main battle have Stark out of his suit or taking on a bunch of drones

[Shadow-Guardian]

I can forsee a lot of whip/bondage jokes in the future.

[el_chupacabra]

well if that Pepper Potts dream the Tony has is really in the movie I won't mind! Yummy!!

[el_chupacabra]

well if that Pepper Potts dream the Tony has is really in the movie I won't mind! Yummy!!

[marvel_freshman]

I think there has to be some Armor on Armor fighting because people don't want to see the main battle have Stark out of his suit or taking on a bunch of drones

I don't mean Tony being without armor, I mean whiplash, because basically he just has the arc reactor and whips. Now my guess would be that Tony and Rhodey will fall out, and towards the final battle, Rhodey finds out about Justin Hammer sending the combat drones and he decides to help Tony and together they take on Whiplash and the combat drones.

[Keyser Soze]

Okay, trailer report. First things first, it wasn't really a trailer at all, but rather a collection of extended scenes. So I wouldn't believe anyone saying this footage is going to be shown before GI Joe or whatever. If we get anything before that film, it'll be different footage from the reel we got at Comic-Con.

We open with a glorious, beautiful shot that I'd happily see open the movie. The music kicks in, and we're on a close-up of Tony Stark's face, wearing shades, as he sits out in the bright sun and munches on a donut. The camera draws out, revealing he is wearing the Iron Man suit, sans mask. It draws out further, revealing he is sitting inside a huge Randy's Donuts donut sign on top of the store. It draws out further still, until we see Nick Fury at ground level, looking up at him.

"Sir, I'm going to have to ask you to exit from the donut."

We then cut to a scene in a diner, Nick Fury sitting opposite Tony Stark, Heat-style. Tony Stark looks incredibly hung over here. Possible hints of alcoholism down the line?

"I've told you already," Stark says, "I'm not interested in joining your little boyband."

"You've made it pretty clear you like flying solo," Fury replies.

"I'm sorry, I don't know if I should be looking at the eye or the patch," Stark adds, "I don't know if you're a figment of my imagination, or what you are."

Fury smirks knowingly.

"Oh no, I'm real alright, Mr. Stark. I'm just about the realest person you'll ever meet."

"Just my luck," Stark mutters in reply.

Cut to the next scene, the court tribunal. The scene is filmed like we're seeing live footage of the trial on an NBC news feed. Stark is obviously the public darling, soaking in the adoration of the people in attendance, smiling at the people behind him. After repeated attempts by Senator Stern to get his attention, Stark finally turns and acknowledges him with a smug, "Yes, dear?"

Stern says this hearing is about Tony Stark being in possession of a weapon of mass destruction, but Stark denies possessing any weaponry. Bemused, Stern asks Stark how then he would describe the Iron Man suit.

"An advanced prosthesis," he replies, getting a laugh from the court, "That's what I'd call the most accurate definition for it."

Stern demands that Stark hand the armor over, saying it belongs to the people of America. But Stark cuts him off, saying he built Iron Man, so it belongs to him.

"I am Iron Man. The suit and me, we are one. So just handing it over to you would be tantamount to indentured servitude or, depending on which state you're in, prostitution."

Senator Stern gets increasingly flustered, with the people in the courtroom clearly on Stark's side.

"Now I'm no expert..."

"On prostitution? Of course not, you're a senator!"

More laughs from the crowd. He stands up and raises his hands, motioning for their approval, but as he turns round, all he sees is Pepper Potts, with a disapproving look on her face. At this point, James Rhodes is called into the court, and as he enters, Stark says "I didn't expect to see you here," which to me seems like a sly dig at the recasting. Anyway, after a little back and forth, Stark sums up with:

"Iron Man is mine, you can't have it. I'm your nuclear deterrent, it works. You're welcome."

Once more, he turns to the audience in attendance, raising his hands in the peace sign Nixon-style.

"I've just privatized world peace, thank you very much."

Huge, whooping cheers for Tony Stark. He jerks a thumb back in the direction of the senators.

"What more do these assclowns want from me?"

We get one last shot of the furious Senator Stern.

"F**k you, Mr. Stark, f**k you. Court is adjourned."

From here, the extended scenes give way to more of a trailer set up. This is like a montage, with the main focal point - the introduction of Mickey Rourke's Whiplash - interspersed with quick cuts of other stuff. Sadly, Rourke's thick accent combined with the cheers in the audience meant I couldn't make out all of what he was saying, but the gist of it was that the Stark family ruined his life, and it sickens him how quickly people forget all the terrible things the Stark family have been responsible for. One line spoken was:


“You come from a family of thieves and butchers. And now, like all guilty men, you try to rewrite your own history.”

We see a glimpse of his workshop, the walls covered with newspaper articles on Starks Jr. and Sr., stretching back from the recent to the stuff covered in the opening montage of the first film. Whiplash intently hammers at his construction, the hammer becoming the heartbeat of the trailer, with each BOOM giving us another image from the film. I couldn't process them all, but here's some of the things I saw:

- A beleaguered-looking Tony Stark pacing through the grim corridors of what looked like a prison, flanked by guards.

- A stage filled with dancer girls strutting their stuff in some trendy nightclub.

- Tony and Natasha dancing.

- Ivan Vanko, dressed up in a smart suit and shades.

- Black Widow in a white hallway, taking out multiple security guards with ruthless efficiency.

- Stark with his shirt off, fear in his eyes, looking in the mirror at his chest. Black veins are spindling out from all around the energy battery in his chest. It seems like it has become infected, or his body is rejecting it.

- Chaos at the race track, with Stark emerging from the wreckage of a car.

Finally, the hammer beat ends, and we see what Whiplash has been working on - an electromagnetic chest battery of his own.

We cut to a shot shot of Tony Stark in his blue racing gear, crawling across the ground, desperately trying to get away from something, or rather someone. Then we see Whiplash, just slowly pacing towards Stark, like a predator stalking his prey, slicing the whips back and forth with these vicious swipes. They're making this savage, lightsaber-like sound, taking chunks out the concrete as they slice through it like butter. And the INTENSITY on Whiplash's face - eerily calm, yet brimming with malicious intent, like he had some prison rape in mind! You can just feel the hate and menace there - I think this is gonna be one heck of a bad guy!

We cut to a brief shot of Vanko, in the suit and shades once more. He smiles, and lets out a knowing laugh, as we fade to black.

All of a sudden, we're hit by a breathtaking aerial tracking shot of Iron Man. He is flying upwards through the night sky, when suddenly he's hit by a missile, sending him plummeting downward. He struggles to get back on his flight path, slowly ascending once more, trying to swerve past the missiles which are now soaring upwards all around him. The score builds and builds until the scene is cut off with

IRON MAN 2

Full-screen, with the familiar Black Sabbath theme kicking in. This is followed by:

SUMMER 2010

And we think it's over. But it's not. We see Justin Hammer, swaggering into a warehouse. He's wearing a smart suit with shades, but has on white surgical gloves - evidently for handling weaponry - and has a heavy satchel bag draped over his shoulder. He gives off the impression of a man who tries very hard to be as cool and suave as Tony Stark, but doesn't quite pull it off. We see that the man he has come here to meet is in fact James Rhodes, who has the Mark II armor sat on a bench in front of him. Hammer laughs when he sees it, pretends to kneel down and worship it.

"My oh my, is that what I think it is?" he asks.

"What have you got for me?" Rhodes curtly replies. Evidently he doesn't like dealing with Hammer.

If Hammer is aware of Rhodey's dislike, he doesn't show it. Grinning, he takes out a lollipop.

"What haven't I got?" he quips, putting the lollipop in his mouth and, rather than sucking on it, just gets a hold of it with his back teeth and crunches it off in one bite.

Hammer launches into a routine, cycling through a number of heavy-duty weapons, finishing with the biggest, an enormous gatling gun which, upon assembling it, he struggles to even hold upright. He tells Rhodey the gun has been given the nickname of "Uncle Gazpacho, or Puff the Magic Dragon."

"I'll take it," Rhodey says.

"Take what?" asks Hammer.

"All of it," Rhodey replies.

We then cut to a quick shot of War Machine flying through the night sky, unloading the gatling gun (which I THOUGHT was shoulder-mounted) at an unknown target. End of footage.

[RachelDawes]

Good to hear that Mickey was as threatening on screen as he was in the picture. I want a really frightening villain.

[el_chupacabra]

Wow that was very detailed! lol thanks for the info! Well if there is anything trailer wise for the Gi Joe movie it won't be anything like that probably some quick scene of WM or IM and then Iron Man 2 title or something lol

[protocida]

He tells Rhodey the gun's nickname. It was something very funny, but sadly I can't recall at this moment.
Uncle Gazpacho or Puff, the Magic Dragon?

[Keyser Soze]

Uncle Gazpacho or Puff, the Magic Dragon?

That's it! :grin:

[el_chupacabra]

lol Puff, the magic dragon would be good considering it was the nickname of a flying gunship used in Vietnam lol

[Judson Caspian]

Iron Maiden theme
Iron Man... :whatever:

[protocida]

I really shouldn't have read that. Know, I only want to see it more. :csad:

[el_chupacabra]

it would be cool though if WM gautling gun uses 30mm depleted uranium rounds off the A-10!

[craigdbfan]

That was a great write up. Very descriptive.

[marvel_freshman]

I take it that you have a copy. Great description though. I would really like to hear how Ivan Vanko laughs.

[Shadow-Guardian]

Great description! Got me hyped. I really hope Rourke is as bad-ass as you described him.

[Keyser Soze]

Iron Man... :whatever:

Oops, meant to say "The Black Sabbath theme". Evidently with Iron Man on the brain, I said Iron Maiden for some reason. Will edit.

[protocida]

- Stark with his shirt off, fear in his eyes, looking in the mirror at his chest. Black veins are spindling out from all around the energy battery in his chest. It seems like it has become infected, or his body is rejecting it.
:wow: :wow: :wow: :wow:

[[A]]

Good report!

Black Widow in a white hallway, taking out multiple security guards with ruthless efficiencyI really wanna see this (I'm sure the stunt kick ass)

[craigdbfan]

Where did Jon Confirm that, because I remember hearing jon say he didn't want ever battle to be armor Vs Armor. I think that WHiplash should only have upgraded armor if there isn't an epic battle between Iron Man and War Machine.

It was confirmed in a G4 interview with Jon at Comic Con. Here are others who saw the interview.

I was watching the Comic Con coverage on G4, Olivia Munn was interviewing Jon Favreau and he pretty much confirmed what everyone's been assuming

The race track Whiplash suit is the first suit and it progresses throughout the film, like the Iron Man armor in the first film.

Saw that too but no not everyone was assuming that. A lot of people have been complaining thinking that the first pic they release of the villian was going to be the final fight. "Oh Noez! He's not fully armored!" Yeah...just like the comics which this is based on. :oldrazz:

[Spider-ManHero12]

Wow, awesome description!

[Aesop Rocks]

Ok so. The Race track fight is the beginning of the movie?

[Dr. Teols]

great report, thanks dude. sounds like this movie is going to rock. before the first one came out i had never even heard of iron man and was not expecting much. but it is definately one of my favorite super hero movies now. sounds like RDJ is going to be solid again, Rourke should bring alot to his role, and Scarlett is Scarlett (need i say more)

[Spider-ManHero12]

Stillawesome tho Indeed.

[DCnightwing23]

http://www.superherohype.com/gallery/Iron_Man/Iron_Man_2/Movie_Stills/hr_Movie_Stills_9.jpg

New set picture

[Aesop Rocks]

Hell, with the awesome description that Keyser gave, I don't need footage now! Man that was awesome.

[Dr. Teols]

nice new pic man. good find

[Superhero Hype!]

Set visit --> http://www.superherohype.com/news/ironmannews.php?id=8578

[Aesop Rocks]

Hell yeah!

[Dr. Teols]

nice read. sounds like the story will have much more depth than the first film

[Figs]

I'm so F'ing pumped with that description, especially about Ivan Vanko. Sounds like Rourke is going to be a Mother F'ing badass in this.

[redlion2]

Awesome!

My favorite quote, "maps of Antarctica and a blueprint of Captain America's shield" -- very, very cool...!!!

Yeah, I liked that part too.

[redlion2]

Man, love that footage description Keyser. Sounds ****ing awesome!!

[Redd]

Man!

I love the set report! It sounds awesome!

I can't wait until May 2010. This is going to be a long 10 months. Hopefully these virals and Jon Favreau updates will keep us satisfied until then.

[DJ Fate]

How did that guy remember all of that?? I remember seeing it, running to my desk a second later and not remembering line for line. He saw it, remembered line for line and flew back to Scotlannd to post it 3 days later, doubt it. He must have recorded it or has it bootlegged somehow at least. The only thing i saw wrong about his whole description was he said it showed it as a nbc feed but it was really shown as cnn. Everything else i remember exactly how he said it

[ultrasuperduckman]

...I think it might be possible Mr. Fate...

[DJ Fate]

...I think it might be possible Mr. Fate...

Theres no way, especially if he's somebody really excited to see the footage, its such a long clip it's impossible to remember line for line. I didn't even get the line where he said fu mr stark right. i said in earlier post fu tony stark.

[DJ Fate]

Especially the War Machine second and a half, i was litaerally jumping for joy it made me forget alot of the rest.

[ultrasuperduckman]

Might be possible for someone to be excited and still retain information? Especially if they showed it twice?

Imma' just sayin'.

[louiebling$]

Some people have A Fantastic Memory.

[DJ Fate]

Some people have A Fantastic Memory.

but to remember scene for scene, line for line, sitting around 5,000 screaming people, it would be more than just an insane photographic memory with recorder like ears

[The Caped Knight]

Just thinking about all that for a second, it sounds as if Tony Stark will find out that his father helped build Captain America's shield. This sounds like it will lead him in the direction of Nick Fury and he'll agree to join the Avengers based on his father's connection with the mysterious agent.

I like this angle very much .

[louiebling$]

Edit

[Jesster32388]

So it sounds like Tony could be looking for Cap.

[ultrasuperduckman]

I think Wikipedia has said for a while...

In Iron Man, Captain America's shield can be seen in Tony Stark's workshop when JARVIS is removing his armor and Pepper Potts spots him.[4] According to an exclusive comic book released with the Wal-Mart deluxe DVD version of Iron Man, Howard Stark created the technology for the shield, and Tony Stark used a discarded prototype to help design the alloy used for his armor.

Thought it was interesting.

[Mr. Earle]

- Stark with his shirt off, fear in his eyes, looking in the mirror at his chest. Black veins are spindling out from all around the energy battery in his chest. It seems like it has become infected, or his body is rejecting it.
In the comics, he has heart surgery and his heart is healed and he no longer needs the battery. From then on, the suit's chest battery takes any shape Tony wants. Maybe this is the point when Tony takes the battery off, and therefore he can change its shape in the suit to the inverted triangle.

[Spade]

Don't like the dad details that are cropping up. I wanna watch a movie about Tony, not another inventor. I like making Anton Vanko, the original Crimson Dynamo, Ivan's father, but leave it there for Chrissake.

[Mr. Earle]

Don't like the dad details that are cropping up. I wanna watch a movie about Tony, not another inventor. I like making Anton Vanko, the original Crimson Dynamo, Ivan's father, but leave it there for Chrissake.
It is about Tony. But he has father issues and there is probably something his father invented that he needs. Some technology, maybe the super soldier serum?
In any case, i like it a lot personally. I am a sucker for flashbacks, and dealing with the legacy of one's parents.

[louiebling$]

I could see that.

[Keyser Soze]

The only thing i saw wrong about his whole description was he said it showed it as a nbc feed but it was really shown as cnn. Everything else i remember exactly how he said it

For God's sake, don't start saying I have footage! 1. I DON'T. 2. You know what the Hype is like in these situations:

"I think he recorded footage" gets translated into "He has recorded footage."

"He has recorded footage" gets translated into "He told us he's going to show us recorded footage."

Then all of a sudden I'm getting called a liar for "Promising everyone I'd show them footage" when I don't have it, never did have it, and never said I have it.

My report was not remembered line for line. I paraphrased some lines here and there, and have certainly forgot some parts. I was just trying to be as detailed as possible in my recollection to help you guys. But I assure you, I recorded nothing. I wouldn't do that, though I saw others doing it.

[Ace of Knaves]

You're telling porky pies Keyzer...




;)

[He-Man]

"[Ivan is], son of Anton Vanko, Russian scientist"

Nice nod to the first Crimson Dynamo. :up:

[Keyser Soze]

Here was one of Vanko's lines in the voiceover, from a report on another site, which might give you a sense of the kind of badass we're dealing with:

“You come from a family of thieves and butchers. And now, like all guilty men, you try to rewrite your own history.”

[Ace of Knaves]

Maybe Starks dad put Vankos dad out of business or something? Leading to a life of hardship then ultimately, crime.

[Pile of Rocks]

But I assure you, I recorded nothing. I wouldn't do that, though I saw others doing it.
I've never been to this kind of events, in general how do organizers handle this? Since cameras and recording obviously was allowed during the actual panel, did they just ask not to record the footage? And trust that the warning itself is enough to prevent leaking?

[Keyser Soze]

I've never been to this kind of events, in general how do organizers handle this? Since cameras and recording obviously was allowed during the actual panel, did they just ask not to record the footage? And trust that the warning itself is enough to prevent leaking?

The moderator requested that people not record footage, as it might dissuade the studios from sharing exclusive material with Comic-Con in the future. "Please show consideration, etc etc." But while he was saying this, I saw one guy using a handheld camera, and another was blatant enough to set up a f***ing tripod in the middle of the floor and mount his camera on it. So unless these guys were stopped on the way out, or are just keeping the footage for themselves, a leak could still very well happen.

[kedrell]

Great description Keyser, thanks a lot. :up:

Did you see the footage twice or just once?

And what can you remember about Roarke's line regarding sharks and blood being in the water and such? Thanks.

[Keyser Soze]

I saw the footage twice, but I didn't even hear the line about sharks and blood in the water. As I say, his accent was quite thick.

[ultrasuperduckman]

Oh wow! Haha some guy had a tripod in the middle of the crowd? That's almost hilarious!

I remember lurking on the boards with the Wizard World footage for TDK. I think someone said they had night vision goggles or something to prevent a leak.

True or not, thinking about that....then some random guy setting up a tripod for another very anticipated movie is funny.

[Silverglade]

Thanks for the detailed description of the comic con footage, Keyser! That managed to get me even more pumped up for a teaser trailer.

[Keyser Soze]

I'm glad all you people enjoyed my trailer report. Thanks for the acknowledgement, it's appreciated. :yay:

[Ace of Knaves]

You did well Keyzer. May the force be with you. :up:

[redlion2]

For God's sake, don't start saying I have footage! 1. I DON'T. 2. You know what the Hype is like in these situations:

"I think he recorded footage" gets translated into "He has recorded footage."

"He has recorded footage" gets translated into "He told us he's going to show us recorded footage."

Then all of a sudden I'm getting called a liar for "Promising everyone I'd show them footage" when I don't have it, never did have it, and never said I have it.

My report was not remembered line for line. I paraphrased some lines here and there, and have certainly forgot some parts. I was just trying to be as detailed as possible in my recollection to help you guys. But I assure you, I recorded nothing. I wouldn't do that, though I saw others doing it.

LOL!! That is so true of the ever continuing soap opera "Days of the Hype"

[Doctor Jones]

That was an awesome report Keysor. Really awesome. I especially loved the hammer beats going through. I can just imagine those shots put together with that beat. I love those kind of things. Building the intensity. Best way to make a trailer.

Man, I'm getting ****ing pumped for this. I gotta watch the first one tonight.

[Ace of Knaves]

Yea I might put on Iron Man now.

I don't wanna jinx it but I think this film is gonna be sick 100%. It's inevitable, it's physics.

[Brian Braddock]

Everything I've seen and heard so far has my inner fanboy salivating. I'm glad that I'm not the only one.

Add to that just how much the GA loved the 1st film and will be excited to see the sequel and you've potentially got a hit on your hands of absolutely massive proportions.

Well you act a lot younger, like around 12 if I had to guess. All you do is *****, we get a new pic and you just cry that "it sucks". For being 18 you really have a lot of growing up to do. I fear for the future with all these younger generations growing up more and more spoiled. "WAAAH! I WANT I WANT I WANT!"

[Shadow-Guardian]

XD LOL at I'm being immature.

[StarkTheProdigy]

Yea, but you have to admit, several people thought the trailer would have been online by now. The night it was shown, people were like, "it'll be on in an hour or so" it was truly a big let down, especially with all the descriptions going around, it just made people more frustrated. But just give it time, I think it’s worth the wait.

[Figs]

XD LOL at I'm being immature.

Please explain to me how I'm being immature if that's what your implying with this statment? Listen, if you weren't constantly demanding for the supposed leaked footage and then cursing out people about it I wouldn't have had any problem with you. It's all of that then the final nail in the coffin is when we actually get a new pic you still complain.

[DCnightwing23]

I wouldve liked to see some stills of Hammer or some more shots of Iron Man and not Tony, but the picture is pretty good. Anyone expect anything Iron Man 2 related at the Chicago Comic con this year? I heard that they would show the same footage over there that they showed in SDCC, so for people that didnt see it you should tell anyone thats going there to get a small Flip video camera ready if its true.

Thanks again for the description, it helped me remember alot of it.

Some people are just plain impatient and spoilt; it's basically as simple as that.

They want everything spoonfed to them - and they want it done yesterday.

[kedrell]

There's no point to having Hawkeye in this movie. I'm sure they probably tried to fit him in, but in the end that's all it would have been - an obvious attempt to shoe-horn him in. When he does show up(and I'm almost certain he will at some point) in these movies, he should be there for a better reason.

[Spade]

In the Ultimate Universe Hawkeye's affiliated with S.H.I.E.L.D. It wouldn't be that much of a stretch to have Tony meet some of the super-people that Nick has in mind for the Avengers.

Agree.

My theory is if Hawkeye is in the film then it would be a small cameo, such as his name being said, seeing his name, or you see the back of his head and he's shooting an arrow. To me tht sounds bout right, but no way he will actually be in it.

Whiplash will be as much as a threat as Joker was In "The Dark Knight" The footage at Comic Con showed his ablilty. Rourke is going to give a great performance. I got to see footage at Comic Con...Keyser was able to describe the footage EXACTLY how it sounds.

[DCnightwing23]

I think saying Whiplash will be as dangerous as the Joker from TDK is not correct. Yeah itll be a good performance but no other comic book villain will be as amazing as the Joker was in TDK. You cant compare the two. Ledgers was an oscar worthy dark and serious performance, i dont think Rourkes would be like that.

[Aesop Rocks]

You mean no other DC comic villain.

So i've seen the Comic Con footage of Warmachine and Whiplash screen shots but where is it discussed in the IronMan 2 spoilers section?

Yeah, I think Whiplash wil be a major threat to Ironman. I mean that in the sense of Whiplash's motivation. With him it's personal. It's vendetta-level personal because he hates Tony and his father and that makes for a very dangerous opponent.

With Iron Monger, Stane made a cool, calculated decision. He needed Stark out of the way. Vanko wants to destroy Stark and everything he stands for.

I actually found Stane at times to be more threatening than Iron Monger, if you know what I mean. Anyway, I agree that Whiplash ought to be a bigger and more frightening threat.

[Keyser Soze]

I actually found Stane at times to be more threatening than Iron Monger, if you know what I mean.

Yeah, I totally get that! To me, Obidiah Stane was a more compelling villain than Iron Monger, just like Emil Blonsky was more compelling than The Abomination. That's because, no matter how advanced special effects get, they're still no substitute for a great performance, especially when said performances are coming from folk as gifted as Jeff Bridges and Tim Roth. That's why I kinda hope Whiplash DOESN'T evolve into Iron Monger or whatever. I'd rather have more time enjoying Mickey Rourke's performance.

[Khemik@L]

Hey guys here is the news that came along the photo by Aesop

by randy ma

loved "iron man?" so did we, of course--and we thank every one of you who helped make it one of the biggest movies of 2008.

Now with the may 7, 2010 release of "iron man 2" less than 10 months away, expectations and anticipation for the sequel are growing exponentially.

One of the men responsible for meeting all of those expectations is marvel studios president, kevin feige. Last month, marvel studios invited select press outlets to visit the set where we got a firsthand introduction to the film from feige himself. Here's what we learned!

"iron man 2" will concentrate on two major themes: The fact that the world now knows tony stark (robert downey jr.) is iron man and the complex relationship between tony and his father, howard stark.

The plot centers around a worldwide energy crisis requiring tony to investigate his father's past work. This forces tony to look into the stark expo, an equivalent to the world's fair, where the greatest minds would congregate to showcase new developments in technology.

Will we get to see howard stark in action? Feige said there were no plans to cast the role, but fans can expect a comparable presence to the first film-where tony's father will be referenced by the press and appear in newspaper and magazine clippings. As feige explained, tony will be chasing the ghost of his father instead of revisiting him in flashbacks.

As anyone who has seen the first film knows, unlike other super heroes, iron man does not have a secret identity. This was revealed in the cliffhanger closing to "iron man." the repercussions to that ending will play a major role in the sequel.

"it's sort of like being a celebrity," described feige.

That "celebrity" aspect will have a major effect on tony's relationships between pepper potts (gwyneth paltrow) and colonel james rhodes (don cheadle).

Add contending with the major villain in "iron man 2," rival industrialist justin hammer (sam rockwell), to the strained relationships with his friends and tony will face odds on two fronts both in and out of costume.

With so many things happening on so many different fronts, will tony have any assistance this time around? Rhodey fans, here's what you've been waiting for:

"war machine will be in the film," feige confirmed.

Plus, iron man will mingle with other marvel favorites.

"we definitely have more of s.h.i.e.l.d. In the movie," teased feige. "agent coulson (of s.h.i.e.l.d.) is back and the organization will play a much larger role than before."

feige was hesitant to spill the beans on the reappearance of the director of s.h.i.e.l.d. Nick fury (samuel l. Jackson), but made it clear that fury's role in "iron man 2" will be at least comparable to the first film.

Come back tomorrow for more from the "iron man 2" set as we learn more from the film's director jon favreau!

just a quick bit of speculation here.... if the story is about Stark looking at something his father was doing..... then i think SHIELD will have quite a bit of screen time.

[DCnightwing23]

This just in! I repeat This just in!

SPOILER**

I just recieved word from a pretty reliable source in Japan that attended the G.I Joe premiere, and what also premiered was the Iron Man teaser! I got a small description from the 34 second long teaser as well as a small cellphone picture of the end title as well so ya guys know its legit. The description is this: Theater cuts to black, then boom the star studded audience sees Iron Man using his repulsors in the air to slowly descend from the air to the ground, the in the background you hear Stark talking " I Am Iron Man, The suit and I are one" in a powerful voice as Iron Man is walking towards the screen, then boom Iron Man shoots his repulsors at the screen with his hand, then Iron Man 2 appears on the screen with 2010 appearing as well.

A pretty simple teaser and it sounds amazing, no video was taken as the security was tight, press was allowed after it premiered. Source says he only got in cause he was with a security guard. This is legit i promise you that! wow it looks like hopefully that teaser or perhaps a different one will premiere here in the states!

No offense mate.

[Silverglade]

If that is the teaser, it sounds like they took the TDK teaser approach. Symbololic visuals (logo, or something) and dialogue setting the mood and theme and guiding the trailer. Which works quite well. !!

[louiebling$]

Yea DC... I have trouble believing what you have to say

[Aluchak]

You cant compare the two. Ledgers was an oscar worthy dark and serious performance, i dont think Rourkes would be like that.

Oh please, I loved Heath's performance as the Joker like everyone else, but come on! Can you guys, PLEASE shut up?
If Heath didn't die, he and the Joker wouldn't be as praised as he is today. Probably wouldn't of even been nominated.
This may sound harsh, but its the truth.

and this ISN'T TDK forums, this is the Iron Man 2 forums, why do we always hear about how "No one will ever be better than Heath Ledger as the Joker"? How do you know that? What if Mickey Rourke died a few months before Iron Man 2 came out? That might change things.
