“It’s an exit, not an entrance! It’s an exit, not an entraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaance!”
Empire has some pictures from upcoming Marvel movies, and I have a little bit of buzz. As you can see, one of the images the site is running is this one of Ed Norton visiting his proctologist from The Incredible Hulk. They also have a new snap of Hugh Jackman as Wolverine, but to me that’s as exciting as seeing Daniel Craig in a tux. There’s also a new Iron Man shot on their cover.
Meanwhile, I’ve spoken to a number of people who have seen an unfinished (ie, the FX are not done) version of Iron Man, and the consensus seems to be: fucking awesome. I’ve heard this from more than one person, and they’re all pointing out the same elements that are great, specifically the action and Robert Downey Jr. These folks all saw very early versions, by the way – the action scenes kept cutting to people in mocap suits, apparently – but that didn’t temper their enthusiasm. I was excited about this film before, but this positive buzz has got me amped up.

Should we be worried that we haven't even seen a teaser trailer for the Incredible Hulk yet?
Awesome.. isn't it?
I can't wait for this shit.
Ed Norton looks like hes having a painful time doing the torso impersonation of ET
Iron Man looks ok, but how much weight are we supposed to give to such hearsay? Are those the same people that claimed the Terminator 4 script was "awesome"? I don't want to be an ass, but either give us an advance review, or nothing at all. The studio pimped Favreau's movie down our throat so much the gag reflex ain't far behind. This is on the verge of overkill, really.
this shit comin from ppl that didnt like batman begins. fuck this
Please, Batman is so completely overexposed. After 5 (soon to be 6) movies and endless Batman animated series, IRON MAN's time has come. The breath of fresh air will mean huge box office. This movie has the attention of even the most random people I know, from the football freak and his girlfriend, to the 45-year-old soccer moms who work at the dentist's office (big RDJ fans), to the graphic designers I work with, and even a farmer and a truck driver. They're all excited for this movie. Many of them aren't even big movie goers. It most definitely is not false hope based on a cool trailer. The entire production team had a year of careful prep time before they even started filming, unlike the Fox Marvel movies that were each thrown together in 10 months. The unbelievable quality and caliber of everyone involved with this movie extends all the way down to the cinematographer, the director of visual FX, and the storyboard artists, and more. I've waited 18 years for this. The reason that Favreau's movie has been "pimped down everyone's throat" is because they're riding the wave of enthusiasm from long-time fans of the character who never expected to have every detail handled so carefully. When they're this excited, it's contagious. So far, IRON MAN looks to be the single most faithful translation of a superhero to the big screen ever.
ur right, it looks the most retarded eva
