Iron Man 2 release date 7th May 2010


Recommended Posts

I so can't wait for this. A while back there was talk of a Black Widow movie as well. I wonder if that's still in the pipe. I would definitely be interested in seeing that if done right. That can be a really interesting character. The J.G.Jones / Dan Jurgens mini was phenomenal (Though I don't like the blonde widow)...

Well, even if it is, what Rappy said is true, so much praise on her at the moment, it just might :)

Yeah, isn't that crazy? So much praise and we haven't even seen her in motion. LOL I'm sure she'll be great though. I like her. I hope we get to see her in the Black Widow costume...

You know, I don't think I've ever seen Scarlet Johanson do accents. Is she inclined with that? I don't know how some of those actors / actresses do that... LOL It's amazing.

I cannot wait for this one, I loved the first one :woot:

Me too. It was my favorite of all of the Marvel movies, and Iron Man was probably my least favorite character going in. They made him so darn cool though. I'm a huge Iron Man fan now. LOL

screenrant: Holy Crap: WAR MACHINE!!!

Latinoreview: Holy **** Iron Man 2 was bananas!!!! WAR MACHINE LOOKS BAD ****ING ASS.

devincf: WAR MACHINE! Hall H is on it's feet. IRON MAN wins Comic Con AGAIN. #sdcc

At what I believe is one of the most anticipated panels at Comic-Con, we had Jon Favreau, Robert Downey Jr, Gwyneth Paltrow, Don Cheadle, Mickey Rourke, Scarlett Johannson on stage for the first sneak peek at Iron Man 2.

The crowed went nuts when Favreau came in. He said it started here, no one cared about Iron Man before they got here. He went right into a promotional reel that showed some behind the scenes shots. Robert Downey Jr. walked in and the crowd came to its feet.

He was ragging on Favreau on Feige for not showing some GOOD footage - and they all played it up.

It?s Favreau?s son?s 8th birthday and RDJ led the crowd in a rendition of Happy Birt:)ay. :)

Cut to footage?

[Eyes wide open, jaw hanging down, cheering]

After footage? Oh? My.

They?re going to hit it out of the park again, folks. The Iron Man 2 footage included Tony Stark being questioned by a Senate committee. He was total snark - they wanted the armor but he said he?s one with the armor so they would have to take him as well and that would ?be the equivalent of indentured servitude or prostitiution, depending on what state you?re in.? He also said they should be thanking him because he ?privatized world peace.?

There was a flurry of diffe * Mickey Rourke building the Whiplash suit and power core.

* Stark on the top of that donut shop in with the giant donut we?ve seen in the previous image - he meets with Sam Jackson as Fury in that same scene.

* Rourke as Whiplash in that initial scene at the raceway with his electrified whips (with a really cool lightning effect).

* Iron Man dodging incoming fire at night in an apparent attempt at flying towards either the Capital building or the White House (happened too fast, not sure which).

* Scarlett as Black Widow kicking some bad guy butt in a hallway.

* Sam Rockwell as Justin Hammer working out a weapons deal with Jim Rhodes.

* Introduction of Cheadle as Rhodey - I?m sorry but he instantly brought a sense of gravitas to the role with his very first word that I didn?t see at all with Cheadle.

* Oh, and a final shot of Rhodey in the War Machine armor tearing it up, standing on the ground, firing weapons out the wazoo in a circular pattern.wazoo in a circular pattern.

Scarlett had dyed her hair red when she showed up to meet Favreau for the part. She worked super hard to be able to do as much of her own stunts/fighting as possible.

Mickey Rourke plays an Ivan Venko/Whiplash amalgam (two villains from the comics). Favreau said that the Whiplash outfit is Ivan?s first attempt at the technology (Crimson Dynamo by the end of the film?). He mentioned

Favreau said that this film shows how Tony is handling the dual role of being himself and Iron Man and the stresses associated with that (when asked about the Demon in a Bottle storyline).

A question was asked about showing some love to highly regarded Iron Man artist Bob Layton, and Favreau called him up to the stage as he was sitting in the front row. Layton said he was invited to the set a couple of weeks ago and was treated like royalty, and thinks this film will blow the first one away.

ok that just sounds epic!

    • Linux 7.1 arrives with an NTFS overhaul and major hardware performance boosts by Paul Hill The founder of the Linux kernel has just announced the availability of Linux 7.1. This is a stable version of the kernel that will now be tested by various Linux distributions before it is shipped to users through update managers. Some users, like those on Debian, for example, might not get it for a long time, if at all, while Fedora users can expect it in the near future. With Linux 7.1 out on time, the merge window for Linux 7.2 is now open, giving contributors the opportunity to send in major new features that have been waiting for the last two months. Torvalds warned that he is currently travelling and will be in another timezone, so timing for the merge window may be irregular due to timezone differences and limited internet access. Torvalds said that he has already fetched early pull requests to allow him to do some offline work, but the travel could still cause disruption. Right now, he is not planning to extend the release, but did consider it. He said he might later regret not extending, though. In terms of this last week of development for Linux 7.1, Torvalds said there were no major or alarming changes. This week consisted mostly of smaller driver updates to GPU, networking, and sound, networking fixes, trace tooling fixes, and misc minor fixes. The shortlog this week lists fixes for driver bugs, memory leaks, I/O and USB fixes, networking and RDMA fixes, DRM/graphics fixes, and tooling and verification improvements. Specific fixes include USB series heap-overflow and buffer overflow fixes, and multiple use-after-free, memory-leak, and refcount corrections across subsystems such as i2c, zram, gpio, and net. There are fixes for graphics drivers, including amdgpu, i915, and virtio, as well as hypervisor and virtualization tweaks affecting mshv, vmbus, and hyperv. According to Phoronix, anyone running Linux 7.1 should look out for the new NTFS driver, Intel FRED for improved performance on Panther Lake and future CPUs, faster graphics with Intel Arc Battlemage, and improvements for older AMD Radeon GPUs. If you are running Linux on your computer and everything is fine, then you don’t need to worry about updating to Linux 7.1 as a priority; just wait for it to be pushed to you. If you have tried Linux on hardware but it didn’t work properly, trying again with a distro that uses Linux 7.1 could cause Linux to work on your machine, thanks to the new hardware support.
