Sam Rockwell says his character, Justin Hammer, is sort of like Lex Luthor (the Hackman and Spacey versions) mixed with Bill Murray in Kingpin and Richard Gere in American Gigolo. And in case we didn't cover this before, Rockwell also says his character is the one who builds Rhodey's War Machine armor, and Rhodey has no choice but to work with Hammer. But Rhodey doesn't let Hammer try the armor on. [MTV]

Moviefone chatted with Faran Tahir, who played Raza in Iron Man, about possibly returning for the third installment:

Every interview asks if you'll be in 'Iron Man 3.' If that role gets confirmed, what will be better: the fact that you're in it or that you'll never again be asked if you're in it?

[Laughs] I think I'd welcome both of those. I'm happy to keep answering the question. Jon Favreau and [the producers] are not stupid. They're also listening in on all of this and wanting to get the pulse of where the audience is. But at some point, they want to introduce Mandarin into the storyline and my character, like Mandarin, was the leader of the Ten Rings. We're leaving it open because, partly, it makes good business sense for us to leave a little bit of uncertainty for people to speculate on.

Has Jon even thought about 'Iron Man 3' or is he just focused on the sequel?

He has known for a long time where he wants to take it and I don't want to speak for him, but my feeling is that the second movie didn't want to just follow a singular storyline. They wanted to expand the characters to show that it's not a linear saga like 'Lord of the Rings.' There's a linkage somewhere in there, but the big idea is to do at least one more 'Iron Man' movie and then go into 'The Avengers.'

You can check out the full interview here.

Crap

They should have got Terrence Howard back.

I hate it when films change actors, it spoils the continuity.

Just like Dark night, they had the ugly flat face, swamp donkey, tree pig Maggie Gyllenhaal, instead of Katie Holmes (who is equally annoying).

They spoilt all the other batman films changing the main characters but tbh they were all poorly written and directed.

But i still want a Iron Man armor as its ****ing wicked!! :woot:

I dislike changing actors too but I'll hold my comments until I see it. While Katie was certainly easier on the eyes she sucked as an actress, Maggie was better.

I hope they bring Raza into the 3rd. I was hoping to see him again in #2 but clearly forgot :D He's gotta amount to something all that character building in the first can't go to waste.

Question, why does the Iron Man 2 suit have a triangle part and not a circle one in the centre of the suit? :s

He has a triangle on his chest in the comicbooks

Iron Man 2?s War Machine Sort Of Revealedb>

Typically, the likeness of a movie star face when sculpted into the dinky wee visage of an action figure is pretty darn poor. For one thing, the figure manufacturers might not have been granted the rights to use the actor?s face and for another, most of these things seem to be badly designed and very badly built.

Surprisingly, this toy version of Don Cheadle in Iron Man 2?s War Machine get up pretty much knocked me over backwards and right into the uncanny valley with its vivid likeness. To be fair, it is an overpriced figure in a ?Don?t touch that!? line for kids who never grew up, not an actual, honest to goodness, down in the dirt candidate for Andy?s Room so perhaps standards have to be higher. I don?t really know - I don?t really know anything much about action figures.

After the break, the full scan which includes his ?Armor Assembly Station? and cute little blurb.

Kudos to Rich at awesome comics site Bleeding Cool for getting these scans from the Diamond comics catalogue. Diamond did the blacking out, not Rich.

That poster is just gorgeous, I had to bring it over to the next page :) Whoever does the promotional art for Iron Man does an amazing job. The posters for the first were very similar. Mostly just shots of Iron Man. It's pretty obvious what the movie is for, no needs to fill it with actor's names and photos of them. Loving the new suits, while its similar, its definitely better. War Machine looks badass too, can't wait to see this movie. May can't come any sooner.

More interesting bits came from the Twitter account of Marvel Comics Editor-in-Chief Joe Quesada today. First of all, he's already seen Iron Man 2... yup!

Back in LA and just saw a rough cut of Iron Man 2. I worship before the alter of the mighty Favreau, he is da man!

And just minutes later he posted the following on The First Avenger: Captain America...

Did I forget to mention an AMAZING Cap script meeting? Actually I did. I work here and these movies can't come out fast enough for me.

Which raises the question, how can we be Joe Quesada for a day? Perhaps he should hold a contest. Hey, schools let students be principal for a day sometimes, right?!

    • Microsoft brings Planner Agent to all Microsoft 365 Copilot users by Ivan Jenic Image: Microsoft Microsoft has announced that Planner Agent in Microsoft 365 Copilot is now generally available to all users with a Microsoft 365 Copilot license. Planner Agent is the latest addition in the string of AI features that Microsoft is implementing across virtually all of its products. The agent lets you manage tasks through natural language prompts directly inside Microsoft 365 Copilot. You can create and update tasks, check priorities, and get insights about current entries without leaving the chat interface. The general availability release comes with a handful of new additions on top of what was available during the initial rollout. A new plan picker lets you search and filter your plans by name, then update task names, statuses, due dates, or priorities through the agent. There's also a goals bucket now, which lets you group tasks under specific goals. This builds on the Goals view, a feature that was introduced as part of the broader Planner refresh that rolled out earlier. Image: Microsoft | Planner Agent in Microsoft 365 Copilot All AI-generated plans and tasks are created in draft mode by default, so you can review and approve changes before anything goes through. This is actually a thoughtful safety feature, because trusting AI to handle all your tasks without a human in the loop is usually a recipe for disaster. Having tasks initially saved as drafts is the best possible middle ground. Microsoft also says that not all tasks are executed equally. Simple tasks get processed quickly, while more complex ones, like building a plan from a Word, Excel, or PowerPoint file, are handed to a more capable model. Microsoft says this approach delivers the best performance, but it could also help with usage management, as you won't have to waste tokens on performing simple tasks. Planner Agent is available now across Teams, Loop, SharePoint, and other Microsoft 365 apps for anyone on a Microsoft 365 Copilot subscription.
    • To be clear I'm anti trump, the bigger point is why review this game at all?
    • Trillion dollar Microsoft has to reduce spending by hurting more people. Good job Microsoft. Good Job Asha.
