they dont want it clashing with Iron Man or Captain America, so it wont be released for another year yet. which is good cas then they can reshoot any scenes which are god aweful. it wont be as big as Iron Man though so dont expect SFX that amaze you.

It was a hypothetical question. But why would it not be as big as Iron Man? Same studio, and it's being made looking towards The Avengers just like Iron Man 2/Captain America are. They've picked a smaller-name actor for the lead but it's still a big-budget comic film.

im not saying it wouldnt be big budget, i actually expect to spend a fair bit on it to get Valhalla looking right and on some of the SFX, im just sayig dont expect it to match Iron Man or Spiderman in terms of genious. and with some big names in this film its gonna obivously be quite good, all i know is the guy who plays Thor is in Iron Man 2 (havent seen it yet going next week) and will set up the film.

Captain America will obviously have mega bucks thrown at it because he is the main charcter of The Avengers and they will obviously play on the rivalry between Captain America and Iron Man. that i could imagine being a good partner to the genious of Iron Man.

The guy who plays Thor isn't in Iron Man 2, I saw it the other day ;) there is a Thor teaser though, after the end credits.

Daddy Kirk is looking pretty good :P I think I prefer him.. because Askars is too recognisable. Plus his dad's in it!

It definitely is wrong, I've seen it! No Chris Hemsworth anywhere, not even a glimpse!

But Askars is so, so SO pretty. And Askars and Daddy Askars is a combination for awesome and sexy accent overload.

If they cost that much, people will inevitably a lot more careful with them anyway. I mean, if you paid £200 for a nice compact digital camera, you wouldn't exactly leave it lying around somewhere were it could easily be broken/lost/misplaced.


Twas a joke really, but yeah I suppose you're right, but I wouldn't want to have to wear/keep them sae

Birdemic. Literally the worst film ever made. Don't believe me? Go watch the trailer on youtube. It's horrifyingly bad and unintentionally hilarious.

Is Centurion any good? I'm tempted by the subject matter but eh reviews have been dubious.

He's not in it as such, but as near as dammit.

I thought Iron Man was a very solid sequel, although I thought the final battle could have been a bit longer, there should have been an AC/DC cameo and I still think they should have got Stephen Fry to do the voice of Jarvis...or Joseph Marcell for the lolz.

I was expecting to prefer the second part to the first, like I did with the X-Men, Spiderman and Blade franchises, but with this franchise I think the first part has the edge.

That said, so far the third firm in each of the aforementioned franchises has sucked, so perhaps breaking the pattern is a good thing.
All right, so I MADE a mistake! ONE MISTAKE!
Can't a man start over?! Do I have to keep on PAYING?! HUH?!
Maybe I should make another mistake! ...maybe TWO more!
