Now that the movie is finally wrapped, I can spend a little more time filling you all in. I have been reading as many of your posts as I can and here are responses to your most popular questions:

First of all, as you probably already know, there is not a teaser trailer on the front of Transformers as many of you had hoped and speculated. We are, however, planning to reveal something very cool very soon. This month, in fact. In San Diego. We've secured a prime slot Saturday afternoon in the big room at SDCC. We will split an hour with Marvel and Hulk and plan to cut something together to reward the fans for their interest, support and patience. In addition to our Saturday afternoon presentation, we will be doing a signing and poster giveaway at the Marvel booth on Saturday. Paramount is also doing a rundown of its slate on Thursday which I will do my best to attend as well.

Second of all, you had questions about Iron Monger/Mandarin/Obadiah Stane. My response is read the books. We took certain liberties to keep things fresh and unexpected but we are essentially using the books to inspire our story. Iron Man fans should have no problem piecing together what's what. As far as what villians appear in this movie's storyline, I should reiterate that in the year spent developing our story we decided to treat Iron Man as a first chapter. We cover the origin story and the rise of the hero. It stands alone as a movie, but definitely leaves room for more to be told. Sequels often feel like the story was slapped together in a scramble to exploit a successful franchise. I prefer when stories are mapped out in advance. They feel less repetitive and arbitrary. Additional Iron Man movies are by no means guaranteed but, if we are lucky enough to do more, we will be ready to do them well.

Third. Cameos. I've read that Sam Jackson and Hilary Swank are Shield agents and that I myself play a Vegas security guard. There is no truth to any of these rumors.

(Well, maybe one is true.)

Check the Iron Man boards for the link... this changes things now don't it... guess we know what AICN is all about when it comes to this ****....

Uh, the other one is him as a guard, and I'm pretty sure he confirmed that one before.

As for Sam, sad he might not be Fury, but here's a better idea...

...What if he's cameoing as Jarvis?!

Darth Elektra · 07-07-2007, 12:19 AM

I wanted Sam to play Fury...

Spider-Bat · 07-07-2007, 12:47 AM

That is such good news, I don't want to see Ultimate Fury, I want to see the real Nick who's been around for decades brought to life for the first time, well on the big screen anyway. Must not forget Hoff.

FaT_tONle · 07-07-2007, 07:54 AM

Russel would be awesome... he hasn't done a comic film yet right? Was he in Sin City? I doubt it...

Joker · 07-07-2007, 12:23 PM

damn it, tha makes me slightly less excited about this movie...regardless of his skin color, Jackson would have been great playing either version of Fury

He has played a superhero though, Steve Stronghold/The Commander from Sky High.

Click to Read!: It's still possible that he's Fury, Jon Favreau plays word games with the fans. A spy report from the Vegas filming stated SHIELD was in the process of being created. Given this, technically Fury wouldn't yet be an agent of SHIELD. __________________ Fe XY *in perpetuity*
