Iron Man 2 Official Pictures, News, Gossip, Etc

[kedrell]

^If you lie, you die! :hehe:

So will it be shown on tonight's ET? (set's Tivo.)

[Figs]

^ not true, theyre havent been pics of scarlett, i dont think. And alot of others.

Redd who was one of the extras was saying they were firing extras on the spot if caught with a camera or even their phones on set. So if Norton/Hulk has a cameo in this(That would be awesome but I highly doubt it)there is a great chance that it will not get leaked by an extra or even crew member.

Just like you said, we would have gotten a pic or two of Scarlett already if someone got away with a phone or camera.

[kedrell]

If QWoods is right, then we won't have long to wait anyway.

[Son of Coul]

Favreau did talk about all of them doing a marketing shoot a few weeks ago on Twitter.

[SuperHero38]

Know what I would like to see/hear in Iron Man 2. For someone to actually say "Captain America" or "Steve Rogers" lol. Ya seems like a small request. I know in Hulk, Ross and Blonsky spoke about the super soldier program. But Captain America is never mentioned. Maybe lame or very minor but for some reason it would make me happy to hear his name brought up. Love Cap!

[Aluchak]

What time is ET on and what channel?

[FaT_tONle]

When did the Stark/Fury cameos get leaked with respect to the releases of those films? I forget... was it a few months before or almost a full year before? Maybe Marvel is learning from their mistakes? Besides I doubt they will keep this under wraps until the reviews and what not (or trailers should they feature that). An actor or producer will eventually spill the beans if Norton has a significant role. If it's a cameo then we may not know until the screeners or the release.

Well, the Hulk is CG, obviously, so we're not going to see him walking around the set, but Norton,

he's not 11 feet tall, and we have not got leaked photos of ANYONE yet, except Tony Stark and Nick Fury. There's good possibility, he is, and the person probably made only one post because they didn't want to get in trouble for leaking the information.

Why not... no deliberately gamma-mutated Ed Norton on the set??? :woot:

It was round about the time it was filmed IIRC, AICN leaked it.

[QWoods]

The show came on at 7:30 I can describe her in Spoiler tags but idk if people want a description so early

[Figs]

Put it in spoilers.

[Son of Coul]

Haha, what do you guys expect? I'd assume it's just her with red hair and leather. I'd like to see it but I don't think a description will be surprising.

[Spider-ManHero12]

The show came on at 7:30 I can describe her in Spoiler tags but idk if people want a description so early Can you describe her?

[Mr. Earle]

Guys, i think we re getting trolled here...
(and on the hulk issue)

[Aluchak]

I'm watching ET, the description is

"An advance look at the movie "New York I love you", a photo shoot with josh duhamel"

They're talking about Michael Jackson right now

[Spider-ManHero12]

^^ So, nothing on Iron man 2?

[Aluchak]

IT IS REAL. I saw Scarlett, Robert, and Mickey on the cover of a magazine.

[QWoods]

told u :)

[Nivek]

I hope this isn't more b.S. like the guy last year who said he worked on the Hulk and was selling a stolen script signed by the whole cast, including Norton.

If something sounds too good to be true, it usually is.

[Son of Coul]

****ing *****in' cool.

[Rocker22]

Looks good. I've set ET to record tonight when the show it again.

[Spider-ManHero12]

Nice! Well, I'll be watching the rerun of the show.

[Figs]

Although those pics are blurry I'm liking what I can see of Scarlett.

[Spider-ManHero12]

The pics are red x from what I see.

[Aztec]

Scarlett looks fantastic. I'd throw her one.

[Aztec]

Well, remember Favreau said that Howard Stark, Tony's dad, worked on the Super Soldier project so it's possible there will be references in 2.

[Aluchak]

I couldn't take a good quality pic. Hopefully someone will post a hq one.

[Spider-ManHero12]

My god, those photos are awesome! Iron Man looks great and Scarlett looks fantastic as Black Widow!

[Shadow-Guardian]

*jumping up and down* Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. *goes on for an hour*

Finally!!! And let me just say that Scarlett looks just as hot as Black Widow as i imagined it. :cwink:

[Chewy]

So I'd guess her role is pretty sizable if they're selling the movie as her and RDJ and Rourke.

[Aluchak]

Someone get a high quality photo!!!

[CELTICPRED]

Liking what I'm seeing.

[Spider-Vader]

Sick! Scarlett looks awesome, can't wait to see her in action as Widow, I wonder if she has the accent.

[Son of Coul]

So it's looking to be a sure thing that Whiplash will be ****ing Tony's **** up at a Stark Expo racetrack, considering almost every photo includes a reference to it (Whiplash's obviously on the track, Tony's racing suit, Tony in the first pic looking at the racetrack on the monitor, all the track set pics)

[Sawyer]

I have to say, she looks pretty good as Black Widow.

[Agent 194]

Have said it elsewhere...will say it here....Badass!

[Ziggyman]

Scarlett!!! Yes...she's absolutely gorgeous in black leather/spandex and as a red head!

[bossman550]

I love BW but iron man looks a lil bland

[Bunker]

Looking good, then again, it's pixelated as all hell.

[rashad]

Not bad.

[NEXUS 6]

A crappy as the photos are, they have really put my mind at ease about Scarlett being Black Widow...

[Spider-ManHero12]

HOnestly, IMO, not only is the photo of her great, but she looks hot as hell as Black Widow. Great comic book character brought to life. :up:

[mclay18]

ScarJo looks nice as Black Widow. The second pic reminds me of Emily Blunt for some reason, though.

[The Guardian]

As has been said Scarlett looks freaking gorgeous as the Widow:heart::eek::up: and RDJ looks awesome as always as IM,:im::up: Mickey YAY, I'm stoked he's in the movie and to see him on the cover as Whiplash is awesome!!!:D:up:

[DarkReflections]

ive been wondering how the manderin's presence in these films is being handled, just in the way of how his story and character will be building up towards the end of the film.

[Gamma Goliath]

Awesome! Now all we need is a pick of war machine

[Shadow-Guardian]

War Machine won't come for a while. Count on that. Thats the biggest surprise of the whole movie. He's the Two-Face (TDK) of the movie.

[Aesop Rocks]

Looks like that's the final Whiplash suit too.

[bossman550]

the guy who snapped these picks is a celebrity online now. lol

[Jesster32388]

I like what I see I must say.

[Aesop Rocks]

What can you see though? Honestly.

[bossman550]

nothing

[topdog1]

I hadn't heard this news and was watching the re-broadcast of Entertainment Tonight. I'm glad I sat through the Michael Jackson BS because I literally jumped off my couch when they showed the IM2 EW cover. I simply wasn't expecting it. Great surprise and an incredible cover. I'm at newsstands Friday to be sure.

[Shadow-Guardian]

In all honesty, I love the look of the movie, but if thats Whiplash's final suit, I'm very dissapointed in Jon. I mean, he perfected the mark 1, 2, and 3, along with Iron Monger, and everything else, and THATS Whiplash's final suit? Come ON man. I was expecting it to be a prototype, which is why I somewhat liked it. But jesus christ, HE'S WEARING PRISON PANTS FOR CHRIST SAKE!

[bossman550]

i kno but redd said he had tracking markers

[Aesop Rocks]

I don't think Whiplash is the main villain.

[bossman550]

then who is?

[Aesop Rocks]

Himself! :o

[Shadow-Guardian]

*M. night shamamalaman pops out of corner* WHAT A TWIST! :D

[Aesop Rocks]

:grin: :up:

[Spidey 2007]

wow, Just wow, Beautiful... the hair is PERFECT... shes even got the BRACELETS! cant wait to see the rest of the suit!

[QWoods]

What if Widow is recruited by fury and she approaches Thor just like Tony did in TIH to talk about the team.

And I think that when Deadpool has come out or even before that at some award show or just for fun Scarlett and Ryan should do a skit or even make a small fake trailer of Black Widow vs. Deadpool it would kick ass

[p4poetic]

Looking good, then again, it's pixelated as all hell.

Its not going to make that much of a difference.

edit. If you resize it you can make it out better.

http://i27.tinypic.com/jt5fu0.jpg http://i29.tinypic.com/5eeltz.jpg

[Lunar_Wolf]

Scarlett looks fantastic as Widow.

[Brian Braddock]

Looks like that's the final Whiplash suit too.

I dont think there's any way of knowing that, to be honest.

I mean, if you're basing the idea that we're seeing Whiplash's final costume just because of what you see in those pics, then the same logic would mean that Tony's going to be wearing the suit sans helmet too; and I really doubt that's the case.

Hey, you could end up being right, that could be the final costume - but I dont think such a conclusion can be reached based solely off of those pics.

[Brian Braddock]

Scarlett looks fantastic as Widow.

That she does.

That smaller 2nd pic almost makes her look like shes been painted by Adam Hughes; which is a good thing.

[Iron_Stark]

The new armor looks great.

Scarlett looks hot and awesome.

I'm hoping Mickey at least gets body armor.

Did Tony borrow a suit from Reed Richards? :yay:

[Dr Lee]

I'm guessing that....

The suit RDJ is wearing has something to do with the Race car we saw

[luke1234]

The Pics look great, High Res shots should be coming online rather soon.

[Iron_Stark]

I'm guessing that....

The suit RDJ is wearing has something to do with the Race car we saw


oh yeah. Forgot about that.

[FaT_tONle]

Guys, i think we re getting trolled here...
(and on the hulk issue)

I don't know... this is just one of those rumors that makes too much sense, and no sense at all. I first called it B.S, but I actually see it working and think it might happen. You'd start getting into Spiderman 3 territory with the villains though so... probably B.S when all is said and done I guess you're right.

And Scarlett looks good, but the pics are blurry. We don't know if she'll pull off the accent or how involved she'll be with the stunts. If it's a painfully obvious stunt double 90% of the action scenes that's a let down for me.

[Mister Sinister]

Clearer shot on the SHH news page.

I must say i surprised on how good she looks as Black Widow , another thing i noticed is the Ironman's shoulder piece look a lot like batman shoulder pieces , Anyway i hope a Hi-Res show's up soon :)

[dark_b]

changes on the suit.

biceps is not anymore round and smooth . plus the armour on hes hands is bigger.no metalic parts around the neck.

[DarkReflections]

hopefully its not the stupid mtv movie awards. i would never be able to bring myself to watch it.

[Spider-ManHero12]

http://i276.photobucket.com/albums/kk28/laney_74/6a00d8341bf6c153ef01157115dbb0970c.jpg

http://popwatch.ew.com/popwatch/2009/07/this-weeks-cover-iron-man-2.html Awesome! YOu know, I noticed something, Jon really has brought characters to life in such a great fashion. I'm just so happy with how each characters has looked in all the films.

[protocida]

Great! :woot:

I don't think that's Whiplash's final suit, tough. For me, Crimson Dynamo and War Machine are the "Two-Faces" of the movie, as an above user said. Favreau will guard them for the movie. :yay:

Oh, and Scarlett Johansson is HOT, HOT, HOT as Black Widown! :wow:

[Doctor Jones]

To be honest if that is Mickey's final look, I'm fine with hit. It actually wouldn't fall into the armored villain category and I can see them not trying to do that. Favreau's great sticking to his guns like that.

I think the thought of Ivan going after him being reckless and wanting to kick Tony's ass as soon as possible says something about his character. He's gonna be a arrogant prick who wants power and by any means necessary. And it shows how he only had a limited amount of resources to build it, and has ingenuity, He's smart too.

[Ironfan72]

Loving the pics, give Favreau alot of credit, he like no other directer gets what this characters are supposed to look like and after reading the exerts from the article, I like the tone he's setting with the different style of villains, with Hammer being a Stark wanna be and Whiplash being this bada$$ Russian.
I was hyped before but now I'm on near overload on excitement.

[DocHoliday]

I wonder how a common prisoner would be able to do what Stark did in the first film. (IE create a suit)...Unless he isn't as common as we thought (tech master or industrial espionage could explain it maybe)

I am confident that if he suit gets an upgrade that Hammer would be the one to give it to him.

[protocida]

Stark will be de-armored in the Grand Prix, so, Whiplash will be one hell of an threat, but how can he hold up against an armored Iron Man, if that's his final suit?

[Spider-ManHero12]

Also, did I mention that I really think Iron Man's new look really explodes with color and coolness? It seems ot have more color to it for some reason.

[Ironfan72]

I am confident that if he suit gets an upgrade that Hammer would be the one to give it to him.

In the comics that's exactly what Hammer does, he takes alot of Iron Man's rogues and gives them the hi-tech weapons they need to attack Stark Industries and Iron Man.
Alot of what Hammer gives them is based off stolen Stark tech, not sure if they will play that angle up in the film.

[Aesop Rocks]

Hot DAMN! I take back all bad things I said.

:o

[Shivsguy616]

changes on the suit.

biceps is not anymore round and smooth . plus the armour on hes hands is bigger.no metalic parts around the neck.


Or to be a bit more comprehensive:

The shoulder pads are different, point down and less segmented.
The trapezius section is more segmented.
Directly beneath these, yellow is present.
Silver rivels, pistons and brackets are missing.
The neck piece is altered.
The yellow bicep pieces are altered.
Yellow is missing from forearms and gloves are more in the Grandov style.
Obviously, this suit is brighter, though that may be lighting.
The chest plate is less rounded and is flanked by new yellow.
The central locking mechnism for the chest plate is absent.
The abdomen pieces are more v shaped than before.
The crotch piece is also more angular.
The yellow on the legs finishes in a different shape to the Mach3.

[Aesop Rocks]

So wait, Cheadle openly bashes Howard in Iron Man 2?

[DocHoliday]

So wait, Cheadle openly bashes Howard in Iron Man 2?

I'm sure it'll be Stark saying something like "Hey Rhodey you look different, lose some weight or something" Something tongue and cheek.

[Chris Wallace]

Scarlett looks fantastic as Widow.

I wish we could've gotten maybe a full frontal view. I can't even really tell what her suit's made of. But it looks pretty spot-on & she does seem to wear it well.

[Aesop Rocks]

Oh and I am also kind of excited about Pepper being CEO now. That makes sense, considering early casting calls had BW as his assistant.

[FaT_tONle]

Over 50 viewers going gaga over one real set picture really and a glimpse of the new armor. Just goes to show how hard it is for the news to come by these days.

It's always been like this on the hype - its never been any different. Dont tell me you've only just noticed this now?

How about responding with a post about how this is all Marvel's fault and that they've somehow dropped the ball again. You know you love to bash 'em................

[BoneS]

Bigger version

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v76/BonezGT/ewim2cover-big.jpg

Looks cool. Wonder if they changed his helmet.

[Ziggyman]

Why does Downey look...bewildered or something...

[Son of Coul]

Looks like Rourke's sporting different bottoms than in the earlier pic we've seen.

[IronJoe]

Wow, thanks BoneS! The detailed pic really shows off the differences between the MK3 and MK4.

[Brian Braddock]

Why does Downey look...bewildered or something...

I guess one man's bewildered look is anothers intense stare.

Yea...depends on how you look at it...sometimes I see a glaring intense stare...and then I see that kinda liked shocked, bewildered look...

That doesn't look anything like ScarJo! But it's still amazing! :grin:

[Ursa]

Scarlett Johansson looks 17 years old girl in this picture.

It's weird because she is supposed to look older to fit next to Downey Jr and Rourke, actually in "real life" she looks older than she really is, she's 24 but looks like 30 sometimes, and maybe that's why she gets the role.

[DocHoliday]

Cool pics. Looks like Rourke has the same star tattoo that Viggo had in Eastern Promises.

[Mr. Earle]

I must say i surprised on how good she looks as Black Widow , another thing i noticed is the Ironman's shoulder piece look a lot like batman shoulder pieces , Anyway i hope a Hi-Res show's up soon :)I thought the same thing!

BTW, how the hell did a Russian prisoner get to Monaco?
How does he hope to best Ironman with no armour? One repulsor ray and he's toast.

Also, the new Ironman suit is lame. The yellow parts on the torso make it cheesy. The previous one was a lot better. Still hoping for a good helmet to make up for it!

[Brian Braddock]

Tony should relax and have a drink or two.

Not exactly the kind of thing one should really say to Tony.

:hehe:

Hate all the parts in bold.
Seriously, what the hell were they thinking? The chest is concave inwards, the crotch is.... wtf, there is no yellow on the forearms, i never liked the granov gloves, too much yellow, and i miss those silver pieces below his neck!

[luke1234]

Scar Jo looked like she jumped right out of the comics, she even has the abnormally large eyelashes that comic artist give there woman characters. Im sooo excited to see her in action.

[Mako]

I'm guessing the helmet stays the samehttp://img.photobucket.com/albums/v323/wx1585/im2Picture14.png
I still think the mark III looks better

[dark_b]

someone will say that this is a CGI suit. and it is CGI.

Actually, Batman's shoulder pieces looked like Iron Man's.

Adi Granov was drawing those far before Nolan was even hired to direct Begins.

[Mr. Earle]

Gah! I 'd hoped we'd see a sleaker, less cube like helmet like this one.

[louiebling$]

Man I'm loving that new suit!

[Mr. Earle]

Here's hoping that the MK4 doesnt have those whore boots from the comics or the pic that i posted above...

I'd have prefered this too......instead they just seem to have improved the old one just a bit !

[louiebling$]

Am I the only one who thinks the helmet looks different?

[Brian Braddock]

I must be missing something - I havent seen the helmet; only a suited up Tony without the helmet.

[Son of Coul]

I like the Mk4. I think its edgy rigid style is cool.

[Shivsguy616]

It's in the set photos in the doughnut.

[Mr. Earle]

I like the Mk4. I think its edgy rigid style is cool.
To be honest it looks more edgy and more rigid than the MK3. Its like it was forged on a single piece of metal. That was my only problem with the MK3, it looked like many pieces bolted together, but not so tightly...

[Son of Coul]

To be honest it looks more edgy and more rigid than the MK3.
Yeah exactly. I think the new armor's cool.

The next could be a sleeker model.

[Aesop Rocks]

I love the new armor, personally.

[Son of Coul]

I actually think it looks even better in the set pics in the donut. Can't wait for War Machine's.

More because of the writers strike and the delays to the other projects... and the failures of past projects pre-2008... but whatever. And I am hard on Marvel sometimes because I only want what is best for them.

[Danalys]

well they both had the CEO try to screw over the son of the companies founder. so you can expect similar results. and pepper like lucius is the only one that son/hero can trust really.

They should add nipples to the suit in the next movie.

You mean Black Widow's suit, right?

well they both had the CEO try to screw over the son of the companies founder. so you can expect similar results. and pepper like lucius is the only one that son/hero can trust really. I hadn't even thought about that aspect.

Pics of Downey on Malibu set of Iron Man 2 today. Great pics. Also in my Marvel Movies! group on Facebook here: http://www.facebook.com/pbarr#/group.php?gid=6649183874

[Chris Wallace]

Cool car.

[DarknessFalls]

Those are great shots huh and yeah awesome car. I tweeted Favreau with that link. Let's see what he does this time.

[Chris Wallace]

Not exactly the kind of thing one should really say to Tony.

:hehe:
Why not tell him to hit on a couple of women while you're at it?

[DarknessFalls]

Wow a bunch of new hi-res huge pics of Downey on set driving the audi. He's got some kind of architectual model in pieces in his front seat.

[DocHoliday]

I think Justin hammer will be like the yuppie villains from Robocop.

[Aesop Rocks]

I completely forgot about Sam Rockwell. :o

[Angamb]

Its nice to see Black Widow already and Scarlett, but the group pic isnt as good as it could have been, I think.

Its like a mix between Hellboy and X-men promo pics, hehe...

[bossman550]

Has anyone noticed if you look at Mickey in Hi Resolution on page 45, it seems as if Whiplash has a grey(dirty metal)chest plate but if u go down his stomach is painted grey to make it look as if that is part of plate but u can see it is just his skin, and if you notice his pants are still the prison pants there are colored, painted, cgi'd, fried, etc to appear black you can still see zipper and a little orange, and if you look under RDJ's left hand. it appears that Whiplash has some type of leg armor?

[bunk]

He's not wearing prison pants in the other picture.

"but if u go down his stomach is painted grey to make it look as if that is part of plate but u can see it is just his skin"

Those are called tattoos.

And he isn't wearing prison pants.

Blow up the pics, it's RDJ alright.

Look at at his stomach there is grey paint(grease all over it) I WAS NOT TALKING ABOUT TATTOS! My bad I was wrong bout stomach.

Look at the first pic of Whiplash released and look closely at pants in newest pic they are the prison pants! YOU CAN STILL SEE THE ORANGE

[protocida]

No, you can't.

[Son of Coul]

Hoho, bossman, you are so delusional.

[bossman550]

MAYBE ITS CUZ IM YOUNG (i can see better) i dont kno how 2 edit to put circles cant you see the flap with zipper

[Son of Coul]

I see what you mean, but since you claim it could be leg armor that'd suggest after the scene w/ the prison pants he got the armor, painted the prison pants black and put them back on for some reason. Also those are definitely tattoos.

edit: Actually, those do look like prison pants with armor, my bad. Just wondering why...

But the tattoos are for sure.

[Mr. Earle]

So why does everyone need to copy stark and place that reactor on their chest? OK, you stole the designs from Stark, cant you put it somewhere else?

Also, the worst parts of the new suit for me are the chest that is concave around the reactor and the yellow parts on his shoulders.

Dont worry, i will stop whining about the suit.... sometime... :hehe:

[bossman550]

thx u and now i see ur right about tatto sry folks. but i was right about pants and chest plate, and leg armor

[Shivsguy616]

thx u and now i see ur right about tatto sry folks. but i was right about pants and chest plate, and leg armor

There has been no picture of him wearing prison pants.

[Shivsguy616]

Care to explain why you quoted me and posted an old picture?

I presume you think he's wearing prison pants in that picture, but it'd be nice if you stated it.

[Son of Coul]

I had believed just that, felt it'd be obvious enough without stating it. If they're not prison pants, what are they?

[Shivsguy616]

:o:o:o:o:o

:huh::huh::huh::huh::huh:

Words are useful...

[bossman550]

He's wearing prison pants! :o

[Shivsguy616]

It's the same driving jumpsuit that the guy in the background is wearing.

[Shivsguy616]

Not in that picture. We've been through this before...:whatever:

[bunk]

He's wearing the same thing as the guy in the background to the right. I don't think inmates in Russian prisons typically wear orange either.

[Shivsguy616]

He's wearing the same thing as the guy in the background to the right. I don't think inmates in Russian prisons typically wear orange either.

True. Russian prisoners typically wear grey or navy.

[Son of Coul]

Huh, I actually think it looks kinda different, not just the shredded appearance either. I think the orange looks slightly different too. Definitely a plausible theory though. And the pockets would make more sense that way I suppose.

[bossman550]

True. Russian prisoners typically wear grey or navy.

It's a movie.

[topdog1]

True. Russian prisoners typically wear grey or navy.

And America doesn't have military bases in Siberia but I saw the Silver Surfer dragged to one on film. That's a little worse than pants color.

What the hell does RotSS have to do with what is worn in Russian prisons in the real world?

[Lots o lafs]

that might be a manip, or thats the smallest pistol ever.
But it does seem fitting that he would like to brighten the colors to stand out more, he is kinda vain.

P.S. why does everyone act like we already know the story, wouldnt it seem fitting to change from an orange jumpsuit to something more suitable, like black pants.

[Hunter Rider]

Scarlett looks spot on as Black Widow to me. :up:

[bunk]

What the hell does RotSS have to do with what is worn in Russian prisons in the real world?

Apparently it's just as likely Jon Favreau slapped an orange prison jumpsuit on Rourke despite the research on Russian prisons that was done, as it is likely Whiplash is simply dressed as a race car driver. Seriously, there's even a discarded helmet on the ground behind him.

Just for reference.
http://i113.photobucket.com/albums/n237/mkrolfe/mickey-rourke-whiplash.jpg
You can see another track worker in a simillar orange suit, and the helmet bunk was referring to.

[Lots o lafs]

yeah he may be a race car driver, like tom cruise in days of thunder mixed with danny vinyard(american history X), and add a littler indiana jones and iron man and this is what you get, lol

[bossman550]

well if he is a racer y isn't his suit all the way on how did he take his helmet off with those whips on his hand since u seem so positive lol

[Shadow-Guardian]

I'm thinking maybe he wears a disguise and throws it off to fool and surprise attack Tony.

[Comic_maniac]

i agree with shadow-guardian


and bossman, i think you should just let it go. your starting to get annoying :o

[bossman550]

:csad:how hurtful
im gonna tell my mom.

[Carlo Comicus]

the tony's pic I think it's during the car racing. In this situation we see the first Whiplash attack.

[Mr. Earle]

I am surprised Tony's car and suit are blue. I expected the red-gold theme, but i guess it would be too much...

BTW, isnt Whiplash a bit stupid idea for a villain? I mean... come on now... For a street level hero like Batman or Cap he would be OK, but without a suit of armour, a flying one at that, i dont see why Tony cant hit him from orbit.

[Brian Braddock]

Isn't the Stark Industires logo blue font on a white background though?

If so, the car is in the Stark corporate colours.................

And we still have no confirmation that is the final Whiplash suit. It may well be that he attacks Tony on the racetrack when Tony is armourless, somehow gets his ass handed to him and then amps up his costume with armour of his own for a rematch.

[kedrell]

On paper, yes. But we don't know how it'll work out yet.

true true. i hope for them that they have a good story and that there is a twist.because tony stark in the IM suit can defeat him in 2 seconds.

[Brian Braddock]

Maybe that's the whole point though - Tony is racing and is therefore not in the suit?

Whiplash could be taking advantage of Tony being at his most vulnerable....................

[dark_b]

this is the only way that this can work. but this is only one scene. we can not have more scenes where tony is fighting the villain without the suit.

and lets not forget that the title is iron man and not tony stark. i dont want to have a big action scene in monte carlo without the suit.

[Brian Braddock]

Who's to say War Machine doesnt show up to save Tony's bacon?

[Mr. Earle]

and lets not forget that the title is iron man and not tony stark. i dont want to have a big action scene in monte carlo without the suit.This is probably going to be a scene like TDK's Lambo one. Tony does the fighting without the suit. He will probably try to run him over or something! Because unless he gets the Extremis (where the suit's parts will fly to him and attach on him) i cant see him suiting up fast enough.

Also, Whiplash probably left the armour behind so that he can put some cloths on and disguise himself. With Tony out of the suit, well.... maybe police officers wont shoot him... Lol.

On another note, i was thinking that maybe Tony's car could suit him up. Imagine this: tony walks up to the back of his car and pops the trunk, and says a password and robotic hands come out of the car and dress him in a similar fashion to the way he suited up in IM. The lower bumber could open up and fit him his boots and the rest could come from the trunk. How's that for a mobile suiting up solution?Who's to say War Machine doesnt show up to save Tony's bacon?Good point!

[dark_b]

Who's to say War Machine doesnt show up to save Tony's bacon?isnt the monte carlo in the middle of the movie?
shouldnt war machine be introduced in the finale when IM can not defeat the villain by himself?

[Mr. Earle]

isnt the monte carlo in the middle of the movie?
shouldnt war machine be introduced in the finale when IM can not defeat the villain by himself?
Maybe WM appears earlier on and then Rhodey goes nuts and Tony has to fight WM and Whiplash in the final fight.

[Brian Braddock]

With all due respect, that's a bit formulaic - it'd be what everyone is expecting.

Marvel and Fav's may have a different idea.

[dark_b]

war machine just showing up in the middle of the movie is IMO anti-climatic.

of course i need to see it in context.

[Brian Braddock]

You're right;

Of course, it's only anti-climactic if there's no bigger finale to the movie.

[Shadow-Guardian]

If you also notice in the blue Tony pic, he's all bloody and busted up. I think this pretty much confirms, along with the Whiplash pic, Whiplash disguises himself, and surprise attack Tony while he's racing. Tony gets pwned, upgrades armor. Ivan (maybe) upgrades his armor too. Iron Man faces off with Whiplash with War Machine. My theory.

[dark_b]

i will have to whait and see

As you say, he is pwned because he doesnt even have a chance to wear it.

Anyway, yeah, we ll have to wait and see.

[Doctor Jones]

I still think he won't really have upgraded armor. Maybe slight modifications in the technology, but nothing huge.

By the way what kind of new armor are you guys expecting for Whiplash? I can see that Favreau doesn't want another armored villain and repeat Iron Monger from the first film.

[Shadow-Guardian]

Maybe he upgrades cuz he thinks Whiplash might be too much for him ro something, I dunno. I'll let you know in 2010.

[IronJoe]

I love Stark's blue jumpsuit.

Anyone post up scans from EW?

[Mr. Earle]

By the way what kind of new armor are you guys expecting for Whiplash? I can see that Favreau doesn't want another armored villain and repeat Iron Monger from the first film.
He definitely needs new gadgets, new weapons and an upgraded suit up sequence if he wants to amaze us.

[Aesop Rocks]

Maybe WM appears earlier on and then Rhodey goes nuts and Tony has to fight WM and Whiplash in the final fight.

There's a 0% possibility of him doing that.

Oh and, if anything, Rhodey takes over for Tony when it's too stressful for him.
:ss:

I can see that Favreau doesn't want another armored villain and repeat Iron Monger from the first film.to bad for him. he introduced again a villain that has the same heart-battery like IM. arent all villains similar in the IM universe? the villain needs to be strong and he needs to fly.or will IM lift a big rock in the space? :woot:

IM with 100% power is one strong muther f......
he would defeat Iron Monger in a minute in the first movie if he wouldnt have the old heart-battery.

so an upgrade from whiplash is important.

[Aesop Rocks]

Fing Fam Foom! :grin:

[Brian Braddock]

If Whiplash doesnt obtain armour (in the IM, metal armour, sense of the word), I'd still bet the farm that he eventually starts wearing some kind of protection - even if it's just some kind of heavy material.

I cant see him going with a bare upper body for the entire movie. That just wouldnt make any kind of sense.

[Aesop Rocks]

Agreed. Especially with his open of a head, all it would take is one of those small ass shoulder thing's to take him out.

[Mr. Earle]

There's a 0% possibility of him doing that.

Oh and, if anything, Rhodey takes over for Tony when it's too stressful for him.
:ss:In the comics WM only took over when Tony was drunk and the suit drove him crazy. Tony had to fight him to get him out of it. Why wouldnt it make sense now?

[Aesop Rocks]

Because I doubt Fav's would go that route.

[Closerframe]

I'm impressed by the photos. Scarlett looks amazing and it seems Downey looks to have grown into the look a lot more than he did in the one prior.

[Cracker Jack]

I know, its different than the norm, I......I dont like it :woot:.

Me either, Let's go back to the Ang thread :lmao:

[darthlaney]

Or to be a bit more comprehensive:

The shoulder pads are different, point down and less segmented.
The trapezius section is more segmented.
Directly beneath these, yellow is present.
Silver rivels, pistons and brackets are missing.
The neck piece is altered.
The yellow bicep pieces are altered.
Yellow is missing from forearms and gloves are more in the Grandov style.
Obviously, this suit is brighter, though that may be lighting.
The chest plate is less rounded and is flanked by new yellow.
The central locking mechnism for the chest plate is absent.
The abdomen pieces are more v shaped than before.
The crotch piece is also more angular.
The yellow on the legs finishes in a different shape to the Mach3.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v76/BonezGT/ewim2cover-big.jpg

I reckon the shoulder sections will 'lock down' when the helmet is on - these are in an unlocked position

[darthlaney]

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v76/BonezGT/ewim2cover-big-1.jpg

Black Widow - not in leather looks more like black stretch denim.

On an unrelated note - I think this is the way to go for Captain America - but an appropriate shade of blue

[Aesop Rocks]

Skin tight, sexy clothing?

[Brian Braddock]

Nothing says sexy like Patriotism.

:D

[darthlaney]

yep? - pretty sure that is what most Superhero's choose to wear.

I'm all for traditional uniform with period materials or a similar look used - rather than the US Army uniform re-coloured

[Aesop Rocks]

I'm for that discussion being in the right thread! :grin:

[protocida]

Tony will take the power gloves to the race track and fight Whiplash with them only, I tell you!

[Aesop Rocks]

I see that happening, Tony being as smart as he is, he's basically a marked man now.

I see him taking those gloves with them almost every where.

Going by the cover of Entertainment Weekly, I'd say his hair is exactly the same length as in the 1st movie - in that pic it's just been flattened by Tony's racing helmet.

[DCnightwing23]

So stark is racing his own car? from the new pic it seems that way, stark seems to have a race suit on. Then im guessing Whiplash comes out pretending to be a crew chief or something and takes out stark and the car??

[TheVileOne]

Stark's a corporate big shot that races his own cars and stuff.

[Iron_Stark]

Tony racing is nothing new or made up by Favreau. He races and does extreme sports out of boredom.

[Betty Ross]

I'm an Entertainment Weekly subscriber, so I guess I got the magazine early. There were three new photos that weren't already posted online. The article was almost the same as what was posted on EW's website, just a few snippets of quotes were added in. Nothing groundbreaking.

Here's my scans:

I'm guessing the first two are from the senate scenes with Gary Shandling.
