Iron Man The scenes that you want to see in Iron Man?

[Nightwing 52]

This thread is where we can discuss what particular scene we'd like to see in the film. I'm sure a lot of you have your own ideas, and I'd like to hear them. First, here are a few things that I can see working out perfectly....

1. Favreau mentioned there would be a lot of flight sequences when Stark ends up donning the suit, I'm hoping we get some good shot of his soaring over New York and let along Stark Tower itself. Even with the fight scenes(with who Jon chooses as the villain), the fight should be something that goes toward the New York skyline, and having him crash into various buildings.

2. A Stan Lee cameo must be in it, like all the other Marvel films that have been made. He can probably be one of the citizens that watch Iron Man fly by, and he says something in shock. If there's a scene like that of course.

3. I'd also like to see a bit of the "playboy" scenario. Being a ladies man is something the comics partially depicted him as, so I'd hope a lot of it is included in the film. Not to mention that I don't think Jon has a love interest in mind, though things can change. Either way, that part of the character should also be shown.

4. I want to see Stark really obessing over the armored suit. It's what he's worked for most of his life, to save his life for that matter. Perfecting it until it doesn't need any more perfection, even stressing on it. Along with the Stark Enterprise researchers fasinated with it's capabilities, though mostly Stark considering it's his top secret project. Because it's not Iron Man that makes him "Iron Man," it's Stark himself. He's a genius.

5. Also, a villain that could match wits with him in terms of intelligence and power. Though I have complete faith in whoever it is Favreau has in mind...

 

[Bullseye]

Villains for Iron Man... I can't think of any.

A Hulk vs. Iron Man scene would be nice but it won't happen.

 

[ampersand]

I want the suit to really look like a suit of high tech armor, not the skin tight look that many of the comic suits have. I don't want to see muscle through the suit. It should also be around 7-8 feet tall.

Also, I don't want to see anything stupid like it folding up into a briefcase or backpack or anything.

 

[ampersand]

Since when is Iron Man 8-feet tall???

I don't know if he ever has but thats how I'd like it.

 

[Marvel Dude]

I'd like to see Iron Man in a scene with War Machine. That would be cool.

 

[Nightwing 52]

Nice thread!

- I want the sound efx to be awesome. When Iron Man powers up it should sound really cool.

Especially with the repulsor rays, along with when he uses the jets of the suit to go even faster. The effects of sound that those would make, should be really detailed on screen.

- I want to see Iron Man take out a small army with ease.

Probably an army of mechanical robots in which he uses to test how much power the suit can give him.

- A cool scene where he zooms across the sky faster than the sound of speed.

The flying squences should look very well on screen. I would want to see him soaring around New York, but a lot of that is something Spider-Man would do. With an armored suit like Iron Man has, she should be going around the world.

- A scene where Iron Man blocks an attack using an energy shield.

For which ever villain he faces, that should be a scene worth having. Considering we'll see all the things the suit can do, but the feature of what safety is implanted in it should be shown.

- A scene where Stark passes out from drinking alcohol in a very tragic way.

Favreau mentioned that his alcoholism isn't much of a factor in the first film. But he did however say that it could be explored more in a possible sequel.

- A birds eye view of Iron Man flying upward toward the camera.

There should be a lot of shots of him going in every direction.

- A Stark love scene for the ladies. Just enough romance to keep the females happy but Stark needs to be a pimp, not just charming.

Exactly. I don't think we'll see much of a love interest (thought we might), but the aspect of Stark being the ladies man that he is must be shown.

- A montage of the enemy is preparing to go to battle with Iron Man and him suiting up at the same time.

The suiting up scene should be a bit like that of the animated series and comics. Where it comes on to him from where his arms. legs, center, and head are. And then launches himself into the sky for whatever task is on his plate.

- Iron Man lifting something exremely big like a Humvee.

That would be great. We'd see just how much strength the suit gives him.

- Awide display of Iron Man's various weaponry and very quick and thoughtful use of them to counter-attack villians.

Now there's something that can work nicely. His suit contains weaponry such as, repulsor rays, pulse cannons, missile launching devices, lasers, tasers, the unibeam centered in his chest, even communicating and recording devices. If there will be scenes of him building the various types of suits, the audience themselves should know what they contain. Probably a Stark Enterprise scientist could explain them, or Stark himself.

Villains for Iron Man... I can't think of any.

Just to name a few....

Crimson Dynamo
Titanium Man
Madame Mask
Mandarin
Justin Hammer
Sunturion
Stane

A Hulk vs. Iron Man scene would be nice but it won't happen.

Would look great, if done right. But it's likely that it won't happen. Perhaps maybe a mentioning of another hero could work though...

I want the suit to really look like a suit of high tech armor, not the skin tight look that many of the comic suits have. I don't want to see muscle through the suit. It should also be around 7-8 feet tall.

Another thing Favreau stated was that we were going to see Tony first use the greay suit, and then find his way to the current more modern look. Perhaps we'll see him test out different models which include the "big bot" version, as opposed to the comics.

Since when is Iron Man 8-feet tall???

He isn't. Stark himself in 6'1", but when he's in the Iron Man suit it makes him taller. Around 6'6".

I'd like to see Iron Man in a scene with War Machine. That would be cool.

War Machine should first be introduced as Jim Rhodes, then possibly don the War Machine armor in a sequel.

 

[Iron Man™]

Damn, Batman great ideas. And being the Iron Man fan that I am, I had no idea he stood 6'6 in the suit....

Anyway, I want to see this scene.

My fave villain for the film if he's in it would be Justin Hammer. I want a scence where he's rivals with Stark Enterprises, and jealous of the fact that Tony kicks way more ass than he does.

 

[cage715]

I want to see a very specific scene from the comic books. I still have it infact from one of the original comics it shows stark in a flying craft and than he jumps out with a suit case with the armor inside. Before hitting the ground he manages to change into the armor and fly off to take care of some baddies. A really cool scene in the comic book that should be brought alive.

 

[blind_fury]

Also we should see Iron Man's point of view from his helmet. We should see what Iron Man sees. Data read outs, maps and positioning, and more.

 

[U.S War Machine]

I want to see him use this!

 

[Dark Phantom]

I want to see him use this

Hellz ya!

I think their should be this major weapon of some sort that threatens NYC. And only Iron Man can stop it. So he has to come along with the heavy artillary. Mainly that

 

[rickprague]

Batman who started this thread has good ideas!

I want to see the weight of the suit in the flying scenes. It should be graceful, but not seem impossibly light, able to change direction mid-air at a moment's notice. We should get the impression that Tony is steering this suit through the air.

There are a handful of classic Iron Man poses that should be brought to life. A lot of the Granov covers are great inspiration, particularly for the main 'flying along in a straight line' pose. Granov is great at capturing emotion and character in his poses, something to pay attention to when your main character's face is not visible.

Speaking of which, I think the best way to show emotion when the suit is on is NOT through Spider-Man-style Power Ranger physical acting. The Spider-Man films fail miserably when you see Spidey ridiculously overemphasise every single movement just because you can't see his face. In Iron Man we can see his face. Just shoot footage of the actor 'inside the suit' whereby we can see various computer readouts reflected on his face. OK so technically there wouldn't be room for the camera inside the helmet of course, but this is a movie...

And we should definitely get an Iron Man POV shot, with all the HUD flashing up, sort of like Robocop's POV but, well, less 1980's...

I want someone to refer to him as Shellhead, just once!

We should get to see Tony working on the suit himself, tinkering with the mechanics. He is a genius after all, so let's see that. Maybe we can see some stuff not work properly in the first version of the suit, so he goes back to the drawing board to perfect them...

Maybe he's not exactly the world's greatest pilot for the first time he puts the suit on? Maybe he's actually pretty crap, and flies dangerously out of control, a bit all over the place? Could provide a few laughs...

As a total geek I want to see in exact detail how the suit fits onto Tony. I want to see it in all its fetishistic glory, sliding and clunking together. It has to be able to work physically. I've always thought the suits in the recent CG Appleseed movie were so much fun to watch, and I'm so happy to read that Favs is watching that for reference!

 

[Radford]

scenes i want to see:

- the war flashback, Stark taking a piece of flying shrapnel to the chest
- scenes establishing his larger than life status with Stark Industries, etc (maybe some boardroom scenes/technology designing scenes/etc)
- experimenting with 'failed suits'
- the armory, as in many of the comic covers, a room with all different iron
man armors in the background
- lots of flight, some over ocean, over cityscape, over desert maybe, gotta show how fast he is and how far he can go in a short time
- picking up things like tanks, gigantic steel girders, etc
- hints of alcoholism, being a playboy, etc
- lots of artillery being used against him (possibly at first, hes mistaken as a threat, or something along those lines)
- scenes of him and the villain crashing through buildings/bridges/mountain/into the sea/etc

theres so many more, but i think you get the idea.

 

[AlteredEgo]

i want to see iron man be a social satire in which tony stark is an up and coming air-guitarist whose only chance of beating the odds is over-coming his fear of commitment.

 

[Riggs15382]

proton cannon. wooo!

Before hitting the ground he manages to change into the armor and fly off to take care of some baddies. A really cool scene in the comic book that should be brought alive.

I made a thread about a scene like that. If Favreau does infact include it, I'm sure he'd do a magnificent job. He already knows where the character is from, and what he's about. Let alone already having everything for the film well in tact. It'd be very sleek looking on screen, and add to the "American James Bond" scenario greatly. Here is the issue.

Also we should see Iron Man's point of view from his helmet. We should see what Iron Man sees. Data read outs, maps and positioning, and more.

There was a panel in New Avengers in which he's talking with Jessica Drew, and we see all the things that he sees when the helmet is on. It'd be nice if it actually happens. Aside from all the things you've listed which should be shown, villain statistics would be another. Say if he's out testing the suit and runs into something that grabs his attention, he can already read his oppenents weak points and strength levels.

I want to see him use this!

I'd imagine he'd first test it out in Stark Labs while developing the suit. Also showing some of the other Stark Enterprise weapon designs.

There are a handful of classic Iron Man poses that should be brought to life. A lot of the Granov covers are great inspiration, particularly for the main 'flying along in a straight line' pose. Granov is great at capturing emotion and character in his poses, something to pay attention to when your main character's face is not visible.

I want to see him doing all kinds of different poses when first flying in the suit. Testing it's full movements, and how far it can go whenever he is/isn't in danger. But there should be one particular pose he takes on, which enables people to then call him "Shellhead." The "flying along the straight line" pose would be the ideal. As well as him keeping his arms back if ever in full throttle while in the sky.

- lots of flight, some over ocean, over cityscape, over desert maybe, gotta show how fast he is and how far he can go in a short time

Favreau did mention that with a suit like that, Iron Man goes around the world....

 

[Sasquatch]

I would like to see many many ****es.

 

[U.S War Machine]

I'd imagine he'd first test it out in Stark Labs while developing the suit. Also showing some of the other Stark Enterprise weapon designs.

Well what about the Uni Beam!?

 

[Nightwing 52]

Well what about the Uni Beam!?

The image isn't appearing. However either way, I'd like to see the Uni Beam as well.

 

[chiefchirpa]

3 Words:

Uni Beam Unleashed.

Maybe in the final scene in the fight, while palm repulsor and guided mini-missiles are used many time.

 

[U.S War Machine]

The image isn't appearing. However either way, I'd like to see the Uni Beam as well.

Who said it had to be appearing

 

[Sasquatch]

What about the Dual or Tri Beams?

 

[psycho]

I think it could be cool if he had a small staff, maybe 5 or 6 people at most, that know he is Iron Man and operate as his tech support.

 

[ampersand]

I like the "tech support" people idea, but I think his identity should be public.

 

[3dman27]

i 'd like a scene where shellhead faces his foes and says
"man i'm gonna NEED this armor"
and ampersand i ratherim be tonys SECRET ID
