You're a 4Channer, Mr. Earle?:cwink:
Wayne Ent financed 4chan under my leadership. Of course Friedrichs disapproved thinking about what Thomas Wayne would have wanted, but Fox was the one to oppose this the most. I booted him from the board and sent him to a dead part of the company. Hahaha, what a fool!
i belive he was refering to AesopI think he is a 4channer as well.

Guy Gardner is the best human Green Lantern. It's so true it hurts.
There was somebody on the phone. He wouldnt tell me his name so I traced the call to Gotham. All he said was:
"ONE PUNCH!!!" :batty:

I'm kidding, Guy is an amazing character. Like Damian, he is a magnificent bastard! :woot:

Yet more proof that The Rocketeer is awesome. :up:

Okay, okay, let's get back on track here.

Sure, the TOY version of the suit with gray on it isn't good. But there's still the chance its the Mark VI-1, not VIV-2.

[RealIrOnMaN]

Okay guys, enough Green Lantern stuff)) This is IRON MAN 2 TOPIC for God's sake))

Back to Iron Man 2: Super Bowl Trailer. 4 days left (without today's one)! What do YOU expect from the 2nd trailer?

My expectations:
* More Hammer
* More War Machine
* Revelation of MKV or MKVI (Model 2)
* New music (Audioslave was badass in 2008's "Iron Man" spot
* More flight
* Improvement of the special effects (the plane scene still gives me the creeps).

Yeah, why indeed there isn't any grey pieces?

Anyways, I DO dig the first promo.

[Dr Lee]

This just popped up on Twitter

In ADR with RDJ.

[Aesop Rocks]

At first I thought that meant "Asgard" but that's wishful thinking.

[SpiderByte]

I think its automated dialogue replacement.

Dubbing, basically. Probably means their doing voiceovers for the scenes in the suit.

[Dr Lee]

maybe.... Fine tweaking the Superbowl spot maybe?

[SpiderByte]

:awesome:

[Ghrunter]

I think its automated dialogue replacement.

Maybe they're at the stage to put Jarvis' bits in too now. Since Paul Bettany mentioned a while back that he hasn't been contacted yet for IM2 so maybe nows the point?

[Spider-Steve]

Now THIS is a good Mark IV promo for MacBook, though the background is too green.

For the mac image, the one with the green background, how does it apply?

The confrimation of Mark V comes closer and closer with each day (hope we will see it in the Superbowl Trailer on sunday):

Iron Man 2 Superhero Squad Three-Packs Series 02 - (Movie Wave I-II)

* Iron Man (Mark V), Whiplash and a Drone.
* Iron Man (Mark VI), War Machine and a Drone

[Dr Lee]

Any word as to when the Superbowl spot will appear online?

[RealIrOnMaN]

Any word as to when the Superbowl spot will appear online?
It is either sunday (of this week) or monday (next week) - that is for sure!

[StarkTheProdigy]

most likely with in an hour after it was shown. i know websites like movieweb has a section for superbowl movie spots, and they update it everytime commercials come on during the superbowl

Paramount is buying ads to tubthump "Shutter Island" and M. Night Shyamalan's "The Last Airbender." It had three spots last year for"Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen," "Star Trek" and "G.I. Joe." Studio decided not to run an ad for Marvel's "Iron Man 2," as had been previously planned.SOURCE (http://www.variety.com/article/VR1118014680.html?categoryId=13&cs=1)

[SpiderByte]

If that is true, on Superbowl night, heads will roll.

[darkslayer101]

wait....there is not im2 tv spot on superbowl??

[rashad]

Nope, sounds like Paramount changed their minds. Don't know why they would do that. Unless they're holding off the marketing blitz until closer to release.

[rashad]

They've pulled the IM2 spot from Superbowl night???

No point in staying up all night now....

Curses and Naughty words

[StarkTheProdigy]

guess who's not watching the superbowl

[Iron_Stark]

No Superbowl spot?

****ing bull****! :cmad::argh::wall::argh::cmad:

To quote Senator Stern:

Paramount, "F- you pal, F-you buddy"

Now there's no real reason to watch the Superbowl, I can't stand either team, their players and fans.

[Deaths Head II]

I wasn't going to watch the Superbowl anyway, but I was looking forward to watching a new ad on the internet.

[SpiderByte]

They might still release a new trailer soon. Just not with the Superbowl.

[Iron_Stark]

That screen shot looks badass. I hope Black Widow has a large part in the game and they get ScarJo to do the voice.

[Figs]

That kind of sucks but at the same time I don't want to see much more of this film until it's release.

[Secretwarrior]

i thought a superbowl spot would be cool just to hype the movie for those not in the know. that way IM2 can be sure to gross alot more cash then it already is.

anyone else think all the footage we've seen so far points to just one big hero/villian fight ala IM1? I guess I'm just tired of seeing Mickey Rourke in the same suit whipping the same car for the 100th time lol

[Mr. Earle]

i thought a superbowl spot would be cool just to hype the movie for those not in the know. that way IM2 can be sure to gross alot more cash then it already is.Ditto.

[topdog1]

Nope, sounds like Paramount changed their minds. Don't know why they would do that. Unless they're holding off the marketing blitz until closer to release.

I wonder if this is the Disney backlash? Paramount is on borrowed time as a distributor and I think they'll start to phone it in for Marvel projects. I know they still get a percentage and money is king but I just get that feeling.

Promoting those two films is asinine. They dumped Shutter Island in February because it was testing badly and no one cares about Last Airbender. They're either trying to salvage two bad projects or using it as an excuse for their bitter grapes. They signed their contract with Marvel in good faith but never saw Disney coming in and making them lame duck distributors.

[FaT_tONle]

Shocking. Biggest movie of the summer and no spot. Paramount probably thinks the movie will do fine regardless, but I do get the impression that they will mail it in over the next couple of years.

[Aesop Rocks]

Actually, I think Paramount is doing a total "**** you, Disney".

[SpiderByte]

....

How would that work, exactly?

[Chris B]

I'm disappointed that there wont be a spot, but on the bright side, we should be getting the full theatrical trailer in the next month anyway.

Still, I hope this wasn't a knock on Paramount's part aimed at Disney. I really hope we don't see the marketing of IM2, Thor, Cap, and the Avengers suffer over some dispute.

[SpiderByte]

Ya.
Though this means we'll get even more badassness from Favs to make up for it.

WHAT Disney backlash? It's not like a TV Spot for TRON LEGACY is showing on Sunday! Please explain.

[powerbomb1411]

Well, see Disney now owns Marvel. So the general rule of thumb is that anything that can be perceived as something negative hurting Marvel is automatically Disney's fault regardless of logic.

'Iron Man 2' Occurs Before 'Incredible Hulk' In Marvel Movie Timeline, Says Jon Favreau

The two-hour season premiere of "Lost" got everyone's timeline senses tingling, but it only took "Iron Man 2" director Jon Favreau one word to clarify fans' understanding of Marvel movie continuity.

When asked via Twitter where (or rather, when) "Iron Man 2" falls in relation to 2008's "Incredible Hulk," Favreau said the upcoming sequel actually falls "before" Edward Norton's adventure as the green goliath.

Of course, this seems to make perfect sense, given what we know of "Iron Man 2" and the final scene of "Incredible Hulk," in which Tony Stark approaches General Ross in a bar to talk with him about his "unusual problem."

In the final "Hulk" scene, Stark asks Ross, "What if I told you we were putting a team together?" — inferring that he's not only aware of Nick Fury's "Avengers" team, but is also a member. This would seem to indicate that the armored superhero's status as a solo act in "Iron Man 2" plays nice with Favreau's timeline for the Marvel movie universe, despite the order in which the films were released.

However, that doesn't mean the brief comment hasn't spawned some questions, too. With Stark appearing to become a member of the Avengers in the time between the finale of "Iron Man 2" and "Incredible Hulk," one has to wonder which of the other Marvel films might fill in the gap in the overall continuity.

Additionally, if "The Avengers" shows us the team's origin, it stands to reason that the 2012 superhero team-up film could actually fall before "Incredible Hulk," too (or possibly run parallel to the "Hulk" timeline).

Got all that? Yeah, me neither... but I think we can all agree that May 7 can't come soon enough.

Guess so, but isn't it a good thing?)

Btw, here's the description of Mark IV and Whiplash from Minimates, which gives some tips on the storyline:

* Mark IV Iron Man: "Six months after battling Iron Monger, Tony Stark continued to don the Iron Man armor despite the consequences of revealing his secret identity to the world. Though clearly dedicated to his cause, is the world ready for Iron Man?"

* Whiplash: "The son of the brilliant Russian scientist, Ivan Vanko uses his father's research and designs to create his own high-tech armor and finally complete directly against Iron Man as Whiplash."

[night0205]

I thought this information was obvious. We know in Iron Man 2, Fury continually tries and gets Stark to join, so obviously it comes before his appearance in Hulk. It really isn't that complicated, and it sounds like it's the only misplaced movie out of the bunch. Thor, either happens after Iron Man 2, or along side it. Captain America happens in 1942... then I assume after Iron Man 2, and either along side or after Thor. Having a mix mashed time-line doesn't mother me in the least, in fact I kinda like it.

[kedrell]

Heh, no superbowl spot? Well then I won't need to waste time watching the game then and will be able to catch some zzzzzzzz. I agree with Figs though, I'm happy that this means that I will know less about the story when I go to see the movie.

[marvel_freshman]

I know right, It was pretty obvious. The timeline is pretty obvious as well. It goes according to the film releases.

Iron Man 2 occurs before Incredible Hulk, because they wanted to get Hulk out of the way right then, so they couldn't release an Iron Man origin & a sequel the same year. Thor would occur after Iron Man 1/2 & Incredible Hulk. Of course we know Captain America begins before all of the films. They released it last because the ending of the film leads directly to The Avengers. So, in case you are confused:

First Avenger's Beginning

Hulk's Origin

Iron Man

Iron Man 2

Incredible Hulk

Thor

First Avenger's Ending

Avengers

POSSIBLE SEQUELS

Iron Man 3

Incredible Hulk Returns

Ant-Man, I pray, they come up with a better title.

S.H.I.E.L.D Rise of HYDRA

Avengers 2 Hydra's return

[darkslayer101]

no superbowl spot??
wat a buzzkill...

[I_am_iron_man]

I don't know but if i remember Iron Man 2 wasn't on Marvel's plan when they filmed The incredible Hulk. So it's clear why they have make confusion around.

If Marvel was sure to make IM2, the cameos were better in these form:
- Iron Man: Nick Fury's scene.
- The Incredible Hulk: no Stark cameo in the end. Maybe - better - an Hank Pym's cameo.
- Iron Man 2: in the end show the scene with Ross.

It was better, to me.

[Nightmare]

I dont come in here often.

Ed Norton has a cameo in this?

[I_am_iron_man]

I dont come in here often.

Ed Norton has a cameo in this?

He said no. But, well, maybe on May we'll have the surprise.

I remember some visual effects supervisors on Twitter that answers to many fans when they say that Norton don't cameo in IM2. They said "Norton is Banner, not Hulk.". Maybe we'll have some Hulk's cameos?

And in the end maybe we'll have some Thor's cameos...Maybe.

[topdog1]

Well, see Disney now owns Marvel. So the general rule of thumb is that anything that can be perceived as something negative hurting Marvel is automatically Disney's fault regardless of logic.

It's called business. Disney inherited all of Marvel's contracts. That includes their deal with Paramount to distribute the next few films. Once that contract is over, Disney will no longer use Paramount. This makes them lame duck distributors at best. Why should Paramount bust a nut when they know that they will never partner with Marvel again? Most experts agree and think they'll start to phone it in for Marvel projects. There's even talk that Disney has used considerable resources to comb over all those Marvel contracts. Disney lawyers are charged with enforcing every parameter of those contracts hoping to find a breach and reverting rights back to Disney/Marvel. So, Paramount will still want their payday but it's not a great environment and won't produce the best results. Follow the logic now???

REJOICE, MARK V IS OFFICIAL (come on, LOOK at the BRIEFCASE):
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v193/ahai168/megab1.jpg

[kedrell]

The thing I am most worried about(as I said in the Thor news thread) is how this Disney stuff will affect marketing for these films. IM2 really doesn't need too much marketing since IM1 is the main reason people are going to see the next movie. But having decent marketing could mean the difference between IM2 just barely beating TF2's gross or going full bore and beating TDK's gross. Both would be completely successful but which would YOU rather have happen?

And all the other films really need good marketing to be successful since they are unknowns to the GA.

[RealIrOnMaN]

I finally get it! Mark V Armor is UNDER Stark's Race Costume. Just look at it:

http://i590.photobucket.com/albums/ss343/IrOnPaTrIoT/th_12-5.jpg (http://s590.photobucket.com/albums/ss343/IrOnPaTrIoT/12-5.jpg)
http://blog.newsok.com/nerdage/files/2009/08/2010_iron_man_tony_stark.jpg
It looks so tough and uncomfortable, I'm bettin it's under the Race Costume. In THAT CASE it would really look realistic.

Briefcase should have only 2 gloves and the helmet. That explains all.

[Mako]

nothing shows up in the link you gave

[AnorexicBatman]

The Mark V sounds like Modular + Silver Centurion (looks like it) armor with a bit of Extremis thrown in. If it's under his race suit that means neither is it heavy nor very thick to protect him from attacks. Most likely for hit & run attacks.

[AnorexicBatman]

edit

[SurfDUI]

Deuces fellas.

I've enjoyed all the spoilers, holla at you the first week of May.

*unsubscribes*

[Immortalfire]

Exactly, but MTV loves to make articles out of non-news items

Ultimate truth

[Khemik@L]

I don't know but if i remember Iron Man 2 wasn't on Marvel's plan when they filmed The incredible Hulk. So it's clear why they have make confusion around.

If Marvel was sure to make IM2, the cameos were better in these form:
- Iron Man: Nick Fury's scene.
- The Incredible Hulk: no Stark cameo in the end. Maybe - better - an Hank Pym's cameo.
- Iron Man 2: in the end show the scene with Ross.

It was better, to me.

Well I guess the reason they did it that way was to show the general audience (non-comic book readers/fans) that they were crossing movies.

Let's consider it: If they had used Pym then nobody but the comic book fans would have any idea what it means or who Pym is. Also you have to consider they have not cast Pym as yet.

Stark however was already cast and was release the same year so it would be fresh in movie go-ers minds so when they see him they would IMMEDIATELY connect the dots and know that these two movies are interconnected.

I believe they were more concern with sending the message than chronological order.

[RealIrOnMaN]

Another proof (yeah, I know) of Mark V's existence:

http://www.target.com/Mega-Brands-Tri-Armor-Iron-Suitcase/dp/B002YTCKZ8

It's a replica of Stark's suitcase from "Monaco's Clash". Includes:

* Mark II
* Mark IV
* Mark V

[SpiderByte]

Wait a second...if the suits under his outfit...

Then the helmet and gauntlets are in the case! The armor is for body protection, but he didn't think he'd need the repulsors and JARVIS' in a race.

[kedrell]

Well I guess the reason they did it that way was to show the general audience (non-comic book readers/fans) that they were crossing movies.

Let's consider it: If they had used Pym then nobody but the comic book fans would have any idea what it means or who Pym is. Also you have to consider they have not cast Pym as yet.

Yeah, it would be cool.

But obviously, the tv-spot will be cool only in one case:

* More Hammer
* More War Machine
* Revelation of MKV or MKVI (Model 2)
* New music (Audioslave was badass in 2008's "Iron Man" spot
* More flight
* Improvement of the special effects (the plane scene still gives me the creeps).

[RealIrOnMaN]

Mark IV:

http://www.**************.com/images/users/uploads/9723/mark4.jpg
You went for a loooooong tiiiiime promo, but still I like the armor) Looks better than Mark VI with the silver spots.

[SpiderByte]

Again with the silver.

Guys, seriously. If it were so horribly bad, why wouldn't you have noticed it before? I think it looks better ON SCREEN than it does on the toy.

Hell, the toy might not even be fully painted. The parts are silver, but the bits on the toy were the same color as when we saw the unpainted War Machine figure.

Actually, from now on I'm interested only in Mark IV and MK V, 'cause I need to know, how MKIV will disappear/upgraded and what will happen with MKV after clash with Whiplash.

MKVI isn't that interesting, in my opinion. Just the upgraded armor, with the triangle chestplate - to save Stark from virus.

Btw, there is another theory on Whiplash, I came up with. Remember that ET Report scene, where Hapy drives down into Whiplash and Ivan gets smacked by the car?

And remember the Whiplash Action Figure, that shows some metal stuff on his legs? I guess, this stuff (or maybe proto suit) helped him to survive the car attack. Otherwise, if Vanko didn't had anything on his legs, he already would've been toasted.

ok I really hope you'll understand me (because I'm not fluent in english lol) but yeah I agree with the theory that Stark might have a part of the suit under his racing outfit, but the more I look at that Mark V picture, the more I have the fealing that the suitcase could be more than just the gauntlets and the helmet, because (and now my lack of english skills kick in lol) that Mark V doesn't look to have big pieces of armor like Mark III but that it is composed of small pieces together, pieces that could fold very well...in a suitcase :) (man I really hope you see my point lol)

Because we ve only seen the suit in one screenshot of the movie where all **** is going on, its night and there's gun flare everywhere. So it wasnt so apparent. In broad daylight though it'll look horrible. I was actually very happy that the suit had so much more gold this time, but then...

I really can't wait to see the Mark V in action. It'll be awesome as hell!

Give us a new trailer already!

[RealIrOnMaN]

I finally get it! Mark V Armor is UNDER Stark's Race Costume. Just look at it:

http://i590.photobucket.com/albums/ss343/IrOnPaTrIoT/th_12-5.jpg (http://s590.photobucket.com/albums/ss343/IrOnPaTrIoT/12-5.jpg)

It looks so tough and uncomfortable, I'm bettin it's under the Race Costume. In THAT CASE it would really look realistic.

Briefcase should have only 2 gloves and the helmet. That explains all.
I still think, that Stark has an armor under his Race Costume:

First day in London scoring Iron Man. Takes a day to stop white knuckling the backseat driving with the driver on the right.

[RealIrOnMaN]

Actually, I wouldn't mind to hear even one track of Debney's IM2 OST, no, really.

Djawadi's OST for the first movie was fantastic. I hope, that Debney's one will be great too.

[kedrell]

Debney said he wants to build on Djawadi's score(makes sense to me, I loved that score) and get to the point where Iron Man has his own recognizable theme. Obviously he must mean something other than the Black Sabbath tune then, otherwise Iron Man already HAS a theme. I'm really looking forward to what they come up with.

hehe, well I'd like something even newer than that.

[kedrell]

Not much but it's sort of interesting and pertains to the behind the scenes design stuff for the movie(but not exclusively just this movie):

XWjQBR_FZCY

[SpiderByte]

I was staring at the Iron Man suit and not listening to a word he said. The whole time.

[kedrell]

I'm not sure but I think it's a machine that you can insert a design for some conceptual model(via software) and it will construct the model in actuality in a fraction of the time it would take a sculptor to do it.

[Turtles]

I still think, that Stark has an armor under his Race Costume:
http://i590.photobucket.com/albums/ss343/IrOnPaTrIoT/th_RDJ.jpg (http://s590.photobucket.com/albums/ss343/IrOnPaTrIoT/RDJ.jpg)

I have one problem with that theory: how is he going to get his race suit off in the heat of battle? Does it have snaps on the side so he can rip it off like a male stripper?

If he doesn't remove the race suit, how are we going to know the armor is even there? Will it be one of those scenarios where the actor's clothing gets torn and the armor shows underneath? Pfft.....where is the dramatic reveal? Will it be like the duel in Back to the Future, part III, where you only learn AFTER the battle that the main character had protection on under his clothes?

1) Using uni-beam or something else to get from the Race costume.

2) Dunno 'bout the snaps, brother.

3) I think, they will show the sequence of Stark adapting to MKV BEFORE the race in Monaco OR it will be like in "Sherlock Holmes" - first the trick, and then the revelation of the trick itself.

[JKKS085]

It's technically impossible for Stark to wear an armor under his race outfit.
I think that the Mark 5 (which is not a full armor, if my informations are accurate) is most likely supposed to go over his racing suit.

[protocida]

^ Correct. The suitcase has red and silver parts and appears to be quite heavy. It's probabily the whole armor.

Are you kidding me? To hell with IM Season 1 version ^ This is INSANE, if you ask me. So, I'll go with my "MKV under Stark Costume" version. No offense guys.

[protocida]

:dry:

[RealIrOnMaN]

:dry:
What? Technically - it is impossible to carry the armor under the suit, BUT - it is also impossible and weird to have a normal metal briefcase turning into the armor.

[Dr Lee]

What if it's just the Helmet, gloves and feet? I would think Stark can fly well enough by then... so maybe he has a spare set in the Rolls for emergencies?

[RealIrOnMaN]

What if it's just the Helmet, gloves and feet? I would think Stark can fly well enough by then... so maybe he has a spare set in the Rolls for emergencies?
Yeah, it reminds me of the Ultimate Stark - he always had a special crew in cases the armor needs to be putted on Tony or just to repair the damage.

I think, that briefcase contains 2 gloves, (maybe even 2 halfs of Mask - look at the faceplate (http://s590.photobucket.com/albums/ss343/IrOnPaTrIoT/Old%20Stuff/7fef_1.jpg)), but no boots, I guess...

[JKKS085]

I think that everyone will have to admit (one day or another) that the briefcase contains the whole suit. Look how heavy it looks in the ET featurettes, Pepper can barely carry it ! It can't be just the gloves and the helmet.

Maybe the look of the Mark 5 itself is the clue to understand everything. The fact that it seems to be made with a hundred of different pieces (on the chest, arms and legs) means that it's probably foldable. Same with the helmet.

The exact opposite
A thin folding suit with near zero firepower contained in a big and heavy suitcase? No, not unrealistic. A regular Iron Man suit contained in a regular transforming suitcase, which was what everyone tough of once they heard of Mark V? Yes, unrealistic.

It is the other problem - how Stark will put this armor on.

So, no hard feelings proto)

[RealIrOnMaN]

1) That was back in the Bob Layton Era + it was unreal. Read Warren Ellis's Extremis - here there is a good quote by Tony about the briefcase situation.

[kedrell]

* PS: I'm happy, that everyone already admitted, that MKV is existing - it is a very good thing)

It's been a while since we doubted the MV existed in the movie(Redd confirmed it a long ways back). What we've been doubting is that it's a folding suitcase suit. At least, that's what I've been doubting since I still don't see how it can be believable.

[JKKS085]

If I'm not mistaken, the only think that Tony says is that the fact he added more and more functions to his suit is the reason why he can't put it in a case anymore.
And it ends with him finding a way to put his Extremis suit in a briefcase.

Actually I don't see anything unbelievable (or less believable than everything else we saw and will see in both Iron Man 1 and 2) in that "briefacse thing". Especially if the suit was designed to be folded, which could be to be the case (once more look how the suit seems to be made of a hundred of little elements). I mean considering the Mark 5 has a back up protective suit (which may not be a full armor by the way) is not unrealistic at all (or less realistic than the simple idea of a man in that kind of suit).

Oh, it first started with the blurry teaser of Wave 2 of toys, which I posted in december + and after some time somebody (I guess, it was SpiderByte) asked Redd about MKV and she confirmed the armor's existence.

But yeah, now the briefcase situation is one of the most interesting thing to discuiss in this great movie)

[Antonello Blueberry]

The suitcase turning into the armor was an idea Stuart Gordon had when he was supposed to direct an Iron Man movie centuries ago. Neal Adams did the designs for that movie.

he couldn't miniturize the Control Systems, but extremis became the control systems so he was able to go back to a briefcase model.

With the whole Mark V in a briefcase, I'm all for it. The armor was in a briefcase for a long time.

Yep that's true RDJ's charisma and likability comes off in the movie when I remember when Tom Cruise and Nicolas Cage were being rumored back in the 90's I think maybe those two could've pulled it off.

But now with Cruise's kooky beliefs and Cage's nutty acting choices I'm glad they were no longer considered.

And I hate Sean Long. Guy get's stuff like that all the time for free. Bastard.

Have you seen Thor's costume? Sorry if it violates the contract, but...I sorta had to ask.

You guys are making it really hard on me. Damn.

If I say "YES" then I am going to get a hundred on responses asking what it looks like. "Does it have the classic look or is it revamped like what they did with Iron Man?"

If I say "no" then I am going to get responses like, "damn, sneak onto the stage where you can see it and snap some photos for us!"

You guys are going to have to wait. Sorry. Trust me, it will be well worth it.

[SpiderByte]

Its okay. It's just one of those mandatory nerd questions.

[Redd]

It's only natural. If I was in your shoes I would be doing the same thing.

I just hope I can get on the movie Captain America that starts in July.

[SpiderByte]

I'd like to put my "Chick who stalks the Avengers" joke back in now...

[Redd]

Haha!

Hey, I tried to get on the Green Hornet movie but they only wanted older looking women.

I just stalk movies that involve comic book characters.

[sabetoonth]

HA! i got faveau on now! i was misspellig his name, i feel so bad now for oin that

[Mr. Stark]

am i the only one here who is worried about this films marketing, i mean first no superbowl spot, and its 3 months away and there isnt even an ACTIVE website. By this time for part 1 there were superbowl ads, posters in times square and 2 trailers....im confused

[Redd]

Yes I would have to agree that the marketing on this one has been a little relaxed. But I am guessing by Valentine's day that we are going to get more marketing.

Or at least I hope.

Its almost like they are DEPENDING on the sucess from the 1st one, which i understand but only to a certian extent, you have no idea when im around alot of people at work i say im wicked excited for iron man 2, and 90% of they say WOW they are making a part 2. That shouldnt happen 3 months before the release

[Darkness Falls]

[Redd]

I have not been on set with him. But the crew have told me that he is a really nice guy in person and that he does look like a total bad-ass with the outfit on. But he needs the eye patch. It completes the bad-assness. Without it.... It just doesn't look right. (He takes it off in between scenes.)

[Bishop49]

scoring and maybe some antman collaboration?

[Son of Coul]

^unless he's kidding, no according to Edgar Wright's twitter.
@headgeek666 (http://twitter.com/headgeek666) @Jon_Favreau (http://twitter.com/Jon_Favreau) Amazingly, we talked neither Avengers nor Antman.

[Redd]

Yikes! I hope your young redd!

I am young according to movies and tv world. I am 24.

Green Hornet, they wanted women 30 and older. Or at least looked like they were 30.

lol thanks redd :awesome::word:

[Aesop Rocks]

tell me how london is :)

Here's a question...

Which set is more impressive? Thor or Iron Man 2.

[Redd]

Here's a question...

Well for Captain America they are thinking about doing there stage stuff here. And then film all the WW2 stuff in London.

Which set is more impressive? That is tuff. I love the IM2 sets. They were huge and just jaw dropping. But I love being on Thor. I get to be a really fun character in this one.

Speaking of huge sets for IM2. Man, the first night I worked on at the Sepulvida dam scene. I had just bought a pair of shoes, and I was really excited so I went out and bought new clothes. In these shoes I had to wear. I had to run down a flight of stairs and to the other side of set.

Man, did I get blisters. And my heels were bloody. On one of the "takes" that we did I lost my shoe going down the stairs and like a typical girl I picked up the shoe at the bottom of the stairs and kept running. And I didn't even miss a beat in running.

All the background around me and the crew were laughing hysterically.

[Aesop Rocks]

Thanks Redd. I have a few more.

How is Hemsworth between takes? How is the vibe on set? Positive?

[Redd]

Nice guy. Vibe on set = awesome.

[Aesop Rocks]

I know you're just being paid to say that. :awesome:

But no, I really hope Hemsworth is pulling his weight and proves to be a great Thor.

Has any funny "bloopers" happened yet? You don't have to describe the scene or anything, just give a non-contract breaking summary.

[Khemik@L]

On the Topic of Hemsworth. Is he really as big as everyone is saying he is?

[Redd]

That is a little hard because all the blooper related stuff involves the scenes we did.

Um,... maybe when I go to work tomorrow we might get a blooper that I can tell. Especially with the kind of scenes that we have been doing...

[Redd]

On the Topic of Hemsworth. Is he really as big as everyone is saying he is?

Well of course he's bigger. I'm 5'3 so of course everyone is bigger in my eyes.

:oldrazz:

[Chewy]

Redd is Tadanobu Asano as much of a badass in person as he is in his movies?

he was totally badass in mongol i love that movie, wish i could find it on dvd here in the states

[Fort Max]

Lol, this thread has become very Redd centric, can't say I blame people though, must be really amazing getting to work on all these movies, no wonder there's a billion questions. :woot:

[SpiderByte]

Based on the rate their filming at, when would you say we get concept art or something?

[Son of Coul]

What are your genuine thoughts on the costume? You don't have to describe it, but give your opinion and not like "IT'S AWESOME THOR IS ROX!" but like "oh it's cool and all but the helmet looks a bit weird."

Or if you really do think it's flawless that's fine too.

[redfirebird2008]

I don't think there's too much to worry about. The first one was a big success. As long as they get the word out over the next 3 months, people will go see it in droves.

[Son of Coul]

The Superbowl spot would've been perfect. I'm just wondering why they pulled it, they pretty much could've rehashed the trailer and had a perfectly fine reaction from the GA, along with much increased awareness.

[Chewy]

They probably figured it wasn't worth the many million $$$ they would have spent on it. They could get many many many more TV spots closer to release for the same price.

[Son of Coul]

Yeah that makes sense, they replaced it with the Shutter Island one, right? That comes out much sooner, and Paramount's got Last Airbender that needed the Superbowl for advertising more.

[redfirebird2008]

I just noticed that the budget is allegedly $210 million. Hopefully they can use that to improve some of the CGI shots, particularly when Tony gets into and out of the suit. That part looked pretty fake.

Well, it looks really cool. Different in some ways, but very cool to see in real life.

an u at least tell us if the classci helmet or a different helmet is being used?

[Mr. Stark]

might be a re-post but anyone have any idea what those circut lines coming from the arc reactor on tonys chest are in the trailer? Im thinking maybe extremis, but its wayyy to soon for that and doesnt fit the feel of the film

[protocida]

It's said to be a nanobiotechnological virus Hammer infects Stark with.

[RealIrOnMaN]

I don't know if it's old, but here is photo of Bob Layton (Iron Man v1 Best Artist) and Justin Theroux (IM2 script wiz) from IM2 Set in Monaco:

That's a great picture, I've met Bob Layton a couple times, got him to sign some comics for me. He seems like a cool guy.

[WindsofHorus]

double..

interesting, i mean thats very interesting because in the comics no one was ever able to hack into tonys systems he always had failsafes, all i can remember is recently the skrulls, i find it kind of odd they would dumb down the charachter a bit like that
