From what i have gathered from my readings is that the movie will go more off the old comics but with the feel of the new comics. What that means is it will make all the fan boys happy because its the story they remember from the old days and will keep the average joe happy because its been reworked so that it works with how things are now days. IE china isn't a country of poor farmers that are evil and dumb as bricks.
My big thing is that Ironman never had really cool villains. I think that might be what kills any movies after this if they try and make more.
villians?
i can see War Machine and Ultron giving at least two good movies. say, IM fights Ultron but cant win alone so he elicits someone to take up the War Machine armor, they 'beat' Ultron and then the next movie War Machine goes rogue and IM has to fight someone who is his equal but with less morals..
the Mandarin would be interesting too.. magic versus technology..
but through all the movies they should show Stark's drinking getting prgressively worse and it affecting his duties
Woot!! Y'know, I didn't even know a movie was in the works. My geek license is going to be revoked.
Fo' SHIZZLE. The Mandarin, Ultron, War Machine ... three movies right there. The Crimson Dynamo and Titanium Man can come play too. With Tony's social life and problems grabbing at him from within the shell, I think an Iron Man movie has a lot of potential for rockfulness.
note, the first movie has mandarin as the villain, as it was in the comics.
Ok i can see ultron, and bringing in war machine as they already are going to his friend in this first movie. But other than ultron, i think they would have to go the direction of the new comics. Iron man fighting a different weapons project thats in the wrong hands. I loved that idea from extremis, it was a nice step up for his character and a great idea.
Tony Stark makes you feel
He's a cool exec with a heart of steel
As Iron Man, all jets ablaze
He fights and smites with repulsor rays
Amazing armor! Iron Man!
A blaze of power! Iron Man!
IRON MAN would make a great movie!
but it would get bad reviews.
only B characters like Blade and Ghost Rider get good reviews
sorry his true title is "conceptual designer/illustrator"
But as we all know thats the rite position for a comic artists as to be an art director you need to know how to do the other jobs he would be in charge of.

The art director is Adi Granov, so it should be one of his designs.
