Iron Man 3 will be different. Now that they've got this damn Avengers out of the way they can focus back on Iron Man again.
And Shane Black and dat cast etc.

Yeah. I was really referring to his character and purpose in the movie.
Rourke and Cheadle both plain sucked.
This is Downey's last film, right? I sure hope so. I'm happy for him for finally finding success, but dude hasn't done a single interesting movie since he blew up in 2008.
Wonder Boys?
Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang?
Good Night and Good Luck?
A Scanner Darkly?
Zodiac?
All pre-success. Since his breakout?
Iron Man
Sherlock Holmes
Iron Man 2
Due Date
Sherlock Holmes 2
Avengers
Iron Man 3
Ugh. Two tentpole franchises and a shitty comedy.

If we're going to post our IM2 thoughts, I'll repost this from the Avengers thread:
I feel like IM2 is very weird tonally. Rockwell's character (which is hilarious) just seems misplaced. Rourke is all over the place (I vont my bord!). Cheadle is there, reading his lines from the script. Happy Hogan doing more than he should be. SHIELD scenes don't help, but I also don't think they're a big problem like so many.
Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the movie. It's just got too much going on.

Yeah RDJ is just franchise fodder now. I hate to say this....but I liked him when he was still a wreck haha.

I imagine IM3 will be the last solo Iron Man film. I'd be shocked if Downey came back for anything other than Avengers 2/3.
Whatever, I don't care if he does Avengers 2. My point was simply that I wish he'd go back to taking on some offbeat roles in addition to his blockbuster stuff. Something like Wonder Boys, where he was fucking perfectly sleazy and charming.

He is just as awesome as he was pre-superstar. He just has not as interesting stuff since he can pull in the money now. Just like Johnny Depp. But I am very glad that he finally became a huge star.

Yeah him and Johnny Depp have the same career trajectory for me. Good for both of them but they're just not picking interesting parts anymore. Forget that though. The worst is Tom Cruise in this aspect. WOTW was the last film of his where I actually gave a shit.
Brad Pitt's got the best career right now forreal.
Well, like Depp (and Brad Pitt), I feel RDJ is much better suited to supporting roles than leading ones.
Hot Coldman

Hopefully, that'll see (MAJOR AVENGERS SPOILERS HERE!)
Thanos take him out, either kill him or disable him, give them a nice way of removing Stark and thus RDJ from the future MCU franchise without just having him not appear anymore or get recast.
Dude. You forgot Tropic Thunder.

Downey should have won an Oscar for that role.

Hell. No. Terrance looked the part, but didn't play it well at all. And he sounds like a pussy, no kind of resonance in his voice.
say it wit ya chest! (Kevin Hart lol)
I definitely prefer Cheadle for IM.
This. I won't even stream it.
That's success for you. A lot of these guys want to make as much money as they can while they're hot. He'll eventually do those types of roles again.
Tropic Thunder and The Soloist.
The Soloist was pure shit and TT wasn't much better, but I will at least give you a funny RDJ performance in the latter.
Tropic Thunder.
Since this has kind of taken over as the Iron Man 3 thread.
I live a few houses down from Tony Stark's house, that is if his house actually existed.
This sign has been posted across the street from my house for well over a week.
These signs are frequently used to direct crew to production locations. They're a pretty common sight in LA.
Normally when shooting a major production a fake title will be used to keep away onlookers. Like for example how Return of the Jedi was known as Blue Harvest. But given the location I do wonder if there is some kind of pre-production work going on, maybe related to CG scenes involving the house. Or it could be nothing, there is a lot of filming in the area in general.

I had never seen this and it's from late last year.
Shane Black talking about Iron Man 3 and just dropping truth bombs all over the place.

Can't wait for IM3.

Warren Ellis doesn't trust women? Of course, Ellis doesn't trust anyone.

So glad they're going with an existing comic book story. And a good one, to boot.

Saw that earlier as well. Oh, well. Still got Guy Pearce and Ben Kingsley.

Saw that earlier. Wonder if this means we'll see Diane Kruger, Gemma Arterton, or Isla Fisher in the role as was mentioned in the article or if someone else entirely will get it.

The Prestige's Rebecca Hall in talks for the female lead in Iron Man 3.
I liked her in The Prestige. Hopefully she'll continue her sexy S&M activities in IM3.

I wouldn't mind seeing an Iron Man/Captain America movie to be honest. They seem to be the natural pairing from the Avengers with the Hulk and Thor being the other pair.

Yeah, this is easily the Marvel Phase 2 film I'm most excited about. The casting is only helping the Shane Black news.

The next few years are going to seem disappointing once this year really gets rolling.

I was kind of hoping Rockwell would at least make an appearance. He was easily the best thing about the second movie. Of course.... I just really like Sam Rockwell.

Who is this person supposed to be anyways? Maya Hansen?
