Which is funny cause in the movie it looks like Tony's still a dick, he's just the right kind of dick.
"People are calling you the Divinci of our times, what do you say to that?"
"Totally ridiculous, I don't paint."
"Well what about you're other nickname, the Merchant of Death?"
"That one's not bad."
I'll add the list of upcoming animated movies and lesser known feature films (Hellboy II et al.) now.
Honestly, only Dark Knight intrigues me the slightest, and I still need to watch Batman Begins. Slow few years for super hero movies for the next few years I think.

I am pretty jazzed for that movie.
Also - is there any word on any more Hellboy: Animated movies?
I'd cast Nathan Fillion. Every small town sheriff in the world is Nathan Fillion.
I'm done for now, I think.
However, the Hellboy II script was leaked, and the review I read called it fantastic.
Plus, Neil Gaiman has been helping out a bit.

i hope its good and that it sparks a relaunch of the teen titans animated series. for some odd reason, i love that show. maybe it has something to do with Raven's stern, obstinant insistance on never wearing pants...
Those last few seasons with the Brotherhood of Evil were so good. The Brain and Monsieur Mallah are the kind of off-beat villains I'd never expect to see on television, despite desperately wanting to.
Iron Man, Cap and Thor are all but confirmed.
Ant-Man's likely.
I'm betting Luke Cage or Black Panther will be added for ethnicity, which isn't bad because both are awesome.
Wanda and Pietro could work if they are introduced in Magneto's origin movie. I pray to god Hawkeye's in it, and the Vision seems kinda likely.
And that Iron Man trailer is pretty much awesome. Downy Jr. really was perfect casting.

I think it's kind of ridiculous that both Iron Man and Dark Knight are coming out at around the same time but there is so much more Iron Man footage.
and yes, yes it is.
Do you suppose they're bringing back the theme from other Batman movies?
Yes.
No.
I would say Shazam! but they've actually cast people, so it looks like it's going through.
Iron Man has already finished principal photography, and thus has had more time to be worked on in post. TDK is still filming and involves alot less CG.

Who?
movie threads are my threads
But I thought there were rumors going around a while back that they might use The Rock, and since he's basically Black Adam, who is basically (physically) Namor, that wouldn't be a bad choice either. And he's a pretty decent actor.

I didn't even realize that Brandon Molale is rumored to play Captain Marvel.
Brandon Molale actually looks like Marvel. But having never seen anything he's been in, I can't comment on his acting chops.

EDIT - Oh yeah, Rock as Black Adam..nevermind.
Yeah, that works.

I'm not sure if that was just rumored. I know he was cast, can't remember if they confirmed the role.
