A bunch of new images of “Iron Man 2” have surfaced.
Another image of Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow from Jon Favreau’s “Iron Man 2” has been unveiled. A lot of guys and sites are going on about the cleavage, but are you desperate? Let’s be fair, this is minor, minor decolletage. Frankly, with Scarjo in the picture, the most we can really hope for her outta her is a eyefull and this isn’t it. Also, it appears that any office that Gwyneth Paltrow or Scarjo are working in has been endorsed/built by Apple. Nice product placement. Plus there’s more shots of Don Cheadle as Rhodey and Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark.
Director Jon Favreau will be present at Comic Con this upcoming weekend, but it’s not an “Iron Man 2,” presentation that we know of. Meanwhile Sega is hoping for “Iron Man 2,” the videogame to hit around the same time as the film his theaters. They’re saying “spring 2010.” ‘IM2’ is schedule to his theaters, May 7, 2010. “Iron Man,” the original was fun, but will the sequel with multiple villains be prone to the “Spider-Man,” syndrome of… multiple villains and not much more of anything to cling to? Why is no one smiling in these photos?
[Yahoo/USA Today/ Update: FirstShowing has one more]
the first iron man was mildly enjoyable. Those pics of mickey rourke are just awful and don't lead me to think this is going to be any better and likely worst.
Iron Man was enjoyable, but I have my concerns over this sequel: the Howard-Cheadle switch (which is an improvement, even if I don't see a problem with Howard's acting), two villains (Rourke and Sam Rockwell) and specially Johansson, who maybe works as eyecandy but she's dull as hell (I don't think Blunt was better, I would go with a newcomer).
Still, I hope than Jon Favreau can pull it off, but until the first trailer comes out, the jury is still out for me on this one.
Oh, let's toss out the whole "multiple villains" worry- the best superhero movies also have multiple villains.
