Iron Man 2 Sam Rockwell is Justin Hammer

[kedrell]

Yeah, Galaxy Quest is one of those few sci-fi/fantasy comedies that work pretty well.

 

[bossman550]

wow it must be pretty good

 

[kedrell]

Tim Allen, Sigouney Weaver, Alan Rickman, Tony Shaloub, Sam Rockwell...with a cast like that it would have been suprising if it wasn't good.

I loathe Tim Allen. But he was actually pretty good in this.

Yeah, Galaxy Quest is a great movie.

 

[kedrell]

^I agree. Aside from GQ or voicing Buzz Lightyear I really don't care for Tim Allen's humor. Oh and the first Santa Clause movie was decent as well.

Toy Story 3 FTW!!!! lol

 

[bossman550]

FTW=?
I forgot

 

[Aluchak]

FTW=?

For the win.

 

[irapogi]

For the win.

i used to think it was F*** THE WORLD! , i guess that's applicable to sometimes, but for the most part, yeah.. for the win

 

[BoredGuy]

No, ftw DOES mean f*** the world, not for the win!!!!
... and I know a bunch of punk rockers with it tattooed on their throats who would kick your ass if you disagree, lol.....

We had it first before the internet bastardized it, that's all I'm sayin....

 

[BoredGuy]

and besides, "F*** the world" is a much better expression than "For the win", seriously

 

[Doctor Jones]

You will love Buzz Lightyear! Love him I tell you!

 

[protocida]

I'm betting Hammer dies.

 

[kedrell]

^I don't think he will. Roarke maybe, but not Hammer. He's too useful in future installments.

 

[NinjaTurtleFan]

From the Ultimate-line? I know Hammer's a Brit in the 616 but isn't he a southerner in the Ultimate universe? At least that's what I interpret when I read him using "Ah" instead of "I".

Yes, he is a Southerner in the Ultimate line, which I could see Rockwell doing. I'm sure he'll do well as Hammer though still wish an older actor was playing him.

^I don't think he will. Roarke maybe, but not Hammer. He's too useful in future installments.

I don't think the franchise will go beyond Iron Man 3 csad, and Mandarin is definetly going to be the villain in that.

Plus, if the plan on doing DIAB for IM3, Hammer played a crucial role in that.

With the present cast/crew? Yeah, I don't think they'll go beyond the 3rd film. But I am sure more Iron Man movies will continue to be made after that under a different director/cast. And while Mandy is going to be the main villain in IM3, that doesn't mean hammer still won't be around. Maybe in a western liason role for the Mandarin, part of sort of an arms dealing cabal. He'll likely be in some way connected with him in this movie just as Stane was. The Mandarin has use for some co-conspirators in the west.

 

[kedrell]

True.

 

[Chewy]

So apparently Hammer and Whiplash aren't as in sync with each other as we all assumed they would be

So I hear you've got a fairly extensive day tomorrow?

I've got a scene with Mickey Rourke.

Do you get to punch Mickey Rourke, or does he hit you? Because there must be some kind of violence.

We don't punch each other physically, but we do punch each other in other ways--it's emotional.

And... he only got the script a week before shooting

He's also about to make a growth spurt commercially, co-starring in the "Iron Man" sequel, in which he plays Justin Hammer, the industrialist rival of Tony Stark.

Rockwell said he received the script only a week before shooting, so he "kind of took it on faith."

"It's not dissimilar to other studio movies, but the thing that's different about it is (director Jon Favreau) really likes to improvise," said Rockwell. "So we get to play more on this movie than you would on a lot of studio movies."

[protocida]

Interesting.

Rivals?

Partners who fight over an disagreement?

Both?

Sam Rockwell Wears Armored Suit in "Iron Man 2"

When Sam Rockwell was one of the cast members of "Iron Man 2," his character was described as a fast-talking weapons manufacturer, named Justin Hammer, who fancies himself the next Tony Stark. But apparently, there's a bit more to him.

IGN caught up with Rockwell during Comic-Con and asked if Hammer picks up his own armor to do battle. "Absolutely, yes," said the actor, confirming that his character is more than just a businessman.

Rockwell added that he doesn't have much action scenes, but might return in "Iron Man 3." "I actually didn't get to do too much action, but I'm hoping maybe I can do one if there's another one. We'll see."

If you watch the actual video interview on IGN that is clearly not what he meant

 

[protocida]

OK, sorry.

 

[Chewy]

It's nothing to be sorry about, you're not the one running it as a "story"

He was asked if Hammer "picks up any armor or weapons to do battle" and he said "absolutely". The people running it as "Sam Rockwell will wear armor in Iron Man 2!" are conveniently leaving "or weapons" out of the quote
