Iron Man 2 Speculations From 2010

I have to admit, I’m not an expert on the Iron Man comics, but I do got it where it counts. I’m quite fascinated by the whimsical technology that is present in the comics, such as Tony Stark’s computer butler, Jarvis. Iron Man’s many different suits are also a treat. My favorite is the Stealth Operations suit because it can use the power of invisibility. I don’t know why the action figure of the SO suit that came out with the first movie looks like War Machine. But Tony Stark has a crap load of money, and keeps getting new suits in just about every comic, even one called the Hulkbuster suit.Now you probably wonder why I would bring this up. Well the other day, I was looking across the internet and came across a new Iron Man 2 trailer. For what I saw, it looks to be one kick ass film, especially that War Machine is making his film debut, but at the very end of the trailer, Tony Stark slips on an odd suit of armor that forms from a suitcase. When I first saw it, I was blown away. It’s awesome that they are digging into the comics’ archives and taking out such iconic elements.



The film is also having a new villain, Whiplash, played by Mickey Rourke. From what I can understand, he is to be a combination of two villains from the comics, Blacklash and the Crimson Dynamo. But I can help but wonder, why couldn’t they just make him the Crimson Dynamo. I mean, he looks to be a badass villain, but I was really craving the Crimson Dynamo or Titanium Man from the comics. Whiplash is pretty cool though, and looks to be a villain similar to the Joker. I’m also very excited to see Samuel L. Jackson as Nicky Fury, after all, he is one of my personal favorites from the comics. It will definitely be cool to see all the different armors that Iron Man uses in the film, and I hope that they can incorporate as many elements from the comics into the film, and make it one of the best superhero films of all time.

All I can say is I’m very excited. Iron Man 2 is sure to be a pleasure, and will definitely be one of the highlights of the summer.
