		<description><![CDATA[Jon Favreau knows how to cut a damn fine trailer. He's left it late in the day to show off Iron Man 2 but boy, was it worth the wait...


SEE IT NOW IN QUICKTIME HD RIGHT HERE


Stark's still the comic book supehero's comedian. Great scene to kick-off the trailer.



Robert Downey Jr and Gwyneth Paltrow have the best chemistry between a male/female combo in any comic book movie I've ever seen. 



"You Complete Me" brought a bigger smile to my face than anything I've seen in any trailer, (barring the opening of the Kick-Ass reel that played at Comic Con with John Williams' Superman score) that I've seen for any movie opening 2010.



Iron Man shows that CGI superheroes can work, in the same way Spider-Man did. Do we think this is because masked, fully costumed hero characters work just fine in CGI but where you have to see the face of the hero composed by CGI, e.g. The Hulk, it just doesn't look right because CGI can't capture the right emotions?



Citizen Kane like screen transitions in a trailer! Jesus, Jon... you have outdone yourself Sir. How cool is that, and how much weight does it bring to the trailer which actually ...]]></description>

Part of me inevitably gravitates towards the opinion that what Joaquin Phoenix did next will painfully overshadow this particularly good film. A shame as well, because this is the first time in a long while that I have actually believed Phoenix deserves any of the many plaudits he's steadily picked up since stepping out of the shadow that was cruelly robbed of us when his brother died.

No doubt Phoenix's true motivations will be made clear soon enough (as if anyone is still fooled) but long after the beard lies forlornly shone in the basin of his sink, the intellect behind the intention will be questioned. If, as suspected, Phoenix is merely frolicking in the well-trodden ground that used to be Andy Kaufman's favourite haunt, I would have to wonder why he felt the need to do it, unless an uber-post-comic documentary arrives purporting to chronicle the much vaunted "real story" behind the revelation. Wouldn't that be the ultimate comment on our celebrity-obsessed cultures? A true punk on the Heat/Us Today generations.

But, Oh God, what if he's being serious- and as long as there is the thinnest of suggestion shall be burdened with this particular fear?



Anyway, on to the business of reviewing. First off, ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Someone should sue Lionsgate under the trade descriptions act for this pitiful excuse for a movie. Firstly, there is only one lover in this film and two poorly scripted 'emotionally damaged' people who are incapable of love.

Secondly, the title makes it sound like it'll be a raunchy movie. Granted Gwyneth Paltrow inexplicably shoves one boob against a window in one scene, and there are a couple of crappy 30-second sex scenes (it makes Joaquin Phoenix look shit in bed) but there are many more unnecessarily boring scenes of the characters sending text messages or making phone calls on their mobiles! I began to suspect those guys from the Orange cinema ads got to the filmmaker (do you get those 'don't let a mobile ruin your movie' ads in the States?)



The worst thing about this movie is that I KNOW it will end up being critically acclaimed. It has Dr. Freakout himself, the man with the beard and the tortured soul, Joaquin Phoenix, and is written and directed by James Gray. It's also a pile of existential bullshit that a lot of us folk who write about film get off on (I would include myself completely within that category). But the ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Variety are now posting rumors. So bare this in mind, this is not an official confirmation.

But anyway, the trade industry publication say uber hot and uber talented Brit actress Emily Blunt from THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA (and if it ever gets released Universal's THE WOLF MAN), is the front runner to play Black Widow in IRON MAN 2.

Real name Natasha Romanoff, Black Widow is a soviet super spy who wears a skintight black costume that is enhanced by high-tech weaponry. Only in the comics eh?

She would be the femme fatale of the picture and would join Sam Rockwell and Mickey Rourke (pending expected contract agreements) as the third new nemesis for Downey Jr's Stark.


And the red-headed character in comic book form looks like this and if you know her arc, it could be a big setup for future movies...


Presumably they are also considering Rachel McAdams, another red-head who I remember being considered for the role of Pepper Potts before Gwyneth Paltrow won the part.

Not quite sure what's going on out there with IRON MAN 2 and Marvel at the moment. Director Jon Favreau, who was so talkative when he was making the original IRON MAN, hasn't said a word about ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Jon Favreau has told The L.A. Times that he has begun working on Iron Man 2, a sequel to the $570 million worldwide smash original which has propelled the slightly lesser known Marvel character to the heavy heights of better known hero's Spider-Man, Superman, Batman and the X-Men.

Tropic Thunder scribe Justin Theroux is writing the script right now with Favreau no doubt working very closely with the screenwriter he hand chose for the project himself. Robert Downey Jr, Terrence Howard and Gwyneth Paltrow will all return for the sequel which by all accounts should begin filming no later than the Spring.


Favreau told the press...
"We're working on it now," he said, "which hasn't been officially announced. It will be released in 2010."
That date is expected to be April 30th 2010, where it will once again kick off the Summer season early.

Not long to wait then until we can see the next step in the evolution of The Avengers on our screen. In the mean time, make sure you get your pre-orders in for the Blu-Ray and Standard DVD release of the film due out in just a few short weeks.

The movie ranks very highly on my top 10 list of the ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Adding to the already big star cast of the new King Lear film adaptation, The Guardian report that Naomi Watts will play the third sister alongside the previously announced Keira Knightley and Gwyneth Paltrow.

Anthony Hopkins plays the title role in the Joshua Michael Stern (Swing Vote) version of the Shakespeare classic, a role he first performed in 1987!

Stern says...
"The one thing that I'm staying away from is stunt casting," said Stern, "so there won't be the American comedian, but there will be some really great actors playing smaller roles that will make a lot of sense."
He went on to say that we can expect to hear some further big casting very soon. The project is already the highest profile Shakespeare work since the 2004 under-rated movie The Merchant of Venice, one Al Pacino's best performances of recent years.

Personally, I'm still a little saddened that it won't be Ian McKellen starring in this adaptation but I don't need to remind anyone that Hopkins is still one of the finest actors around. Now let's hope Stern keeps the campness of movies like The Other Boleyn Girl and Elizabeth: The Golden Age on low and goes out and gives us a REAL tragedy ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[70 year old veteran Sir. Anthony Hopkins is to lead a new adaptation of Shakespeare's complex drama King Lear according to reporters out in Cannes.

It's a role he has already played extensively on stage and is a mainstay part for most British vets with Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen and Laurence Oliver all dabbling into the character at the later stages of their careers.

Here's a still of Hopkins as Lear on stage...

Brit Kiera Knightley (as Cordeila, youngest daughter of Lear) and American Gwyneth Paltrow (Regan, Lear's treacherous middle daughter) have also been cast in what is setup as a big name $35 million adaptation.

The third and older sister has yet to be cast but I would expect a big name. It almost has to be to live up to the Knightley/Paltrow/Hopkins dichotomy.

Maybe Kate Winslet?

The studio, writing and directing talent behind the film are currently unknown - though the word is the movie will feature epic action sequences!


As with every Shakespeare work of fiction, the tale has been adapted many, many times on screen - more than a dozen in fact with the Laurence Oliver 1983 adaptation probably the most well known. Also, this Christmas the critically acclaimed Ian McKellen production which ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There's a moment in Iron Man when Tony Stark takes flight to the sky's in full control of his faithfully adapted red and gold suit, looking way more convincing in the air than the ridiculous amount of money spent by rival studio Warner Brothers on their Superman character two years ago that I began to think - isn't it great to see how far comic book movies have come in the last ten years.

Memories have soon began to fade of 20th Century Fox and their rather tepid first attempt at the X-Men franchise, not quite sure how it was going to perform despite some big name casts. They were adamant and Bryan Singer certainly complied - in grounding the film down in reality as much as humanely possible which of course meant a travesty when the suits turned up on screen and they all looked the same. Lame black all around and the characters lost much of the personality that their own individual attire had given them for years in the printed and animated form.

Fast forward to 2008, comic books have never been this popular for such a long time - adults are coming back to the medium and it's ...]]></description>

Review by Michael Edwards 

[rating: 4]

I've long been thinking that Iron Man is an interesting comic book adaptation. Not quite up there with the fan bases of the illustrated megastars like those eclectic X-Men, kooky Fantastic Four or magnificent lone crusaders known as Superman, Spiderman and Batman but nonetheless an interestingly layered chap with conflicting personality traits and a few cool gadgets plus a wadge of cash to play with. In terms of the real names tied to the project we have Jon Favreau directing his first action film along with a host of big name celebs who are also, for the most part, action amateurs. Could it be a combination that leads to the kind of overly dialogue-driven origin film, but with a ...]]></description>
