IRON MAN Trailer Kicks Metal Butt

Scroll down for the latest IRON MAN trailer!

Just when you think you've had your fill of costumed superheroes running around and spouting one-liners while bashing baddies, another one comes along that gets your adrenaline flowing. I had my doubts when it was announced that Jon Favreau was going to be directing IRON MAN. Could the guy who directed ELF and came to fame in SWINGERS do this justice? I thought he'd make it into a campy version of the classic superhero.

Boy, was I wrong. The new and recut IRON MAN trailer that was originally shown only at Comic-Con in July has finally hit the webs, and it looks pretty damned awesome. In fact, it has me more excited about this film than any of the Spidey movies, and it also looks like it could trump BATMAN BEGINS or THE DARK KNIGHT. Blasphemy, you say? Quite possibly, but that still doesn't change the fact that this trailer made my jaw drop.

Robert Downey Jr. (who I was also apprehensive about) looks perfect as the boozy playboy version of Tony Stark, infinitely better them Tom Cruise (who was attached to this film for awhile) would have been. The Mark I version of the armored suit looks like a freaking tank, and just check out when the red and gold version bursts onto the screen. Just make sure you've gone to the bathroom beforehand, because you might wet your pants.

Check out the trailer below and rant back to us and tell us what you think about it. Do you love it? Hate it? We wanna know. Sound off!

Entourage Season Premiere — “Welcome to the Jungle”
  Hooray! for this review. I was thinking the same thing while watching this. What the hell happened? Vinnie looked like Andy Kaufman in his Tony Clifton persona. How could be be the next Tony Montana? What were they thinking. Here's the deal, have some stress, but Ari back in front and get back to basics. And no more fake documentaries!

The Return Of The Ring?
  What? You contradict yourself? Of COURSE we all want to see more middle Earth. I'd even like to see the Silmarillion made into a movie. (movies?) For 40+ years I've never gotten enough. I even read all the books to my kids for bedtime. In my opinion, The Lord of the Rings was the best trilogy of movies ever made. I've been waiting since the first MENTION of the Fellowship for the Hobbit!
