Robert Downey Jr On The Avengers & John Favreau's Iron Man 3 Departure

I still have a feeling that he and Favreau fell out over RDJ's insistence that the script be written by the guy who did Tropic Thunder. After all, it was the messy plot that caused the majority of negative feedback the movie recieved! :P

once he tells them what to do. The Ego on this guy jeez..

Good, FAV [frick]ed up IRON MAN 2...

Just like RAIMI did with Spidey 3.

I got over RAIMI, get over FAV! : P

Do u think Tony Stark is going to get paralized it three??? pritty cool if he did, sence he was in Hulk, he should make his Hulk suit too

It's a shame that Iron Man 2 wasn't as well received as the 1st one. If only the final Whiplash fight lasted more than 2 seconds... For me that was the biggest problem with both movies - completely weak sauce endings. Also, seeing as how Mickey Rourke's character was more of a combination of Whiplash and Crimson Dynamo wouldn't it have been better if his final suit was at least painted red, instead of the completely forgettable design they came up with?

i just need to know who the villain gonna be.

-loki & hulk
-loki & the leader
-thanos
-skrulls

who its gonna be ?

I'd rather have Favreau then Downey Jr.

Fame has gone back to his head so its only a matter of time until he falls again. A year ago these words would not pass my lips but I think he's gotten a bit big for his boots.

I think Fav walked away because he has balls and integrity I don't see Fav as a hand for hire and I think his departure proves his self respect.

Also I've got a feeling at the back of my head that Disney might need a percentage of the blame. 92% of box office sales, I feel like history repeating itself e.g. Alice in Wonderland and Tim Burton. I do feel Disney put pressure on directors on big titles and the films suffer because of it. I think Iron Man 2 is an example of this.

@LEEE777

Fav did not f**k Iron Man 2 its Marvel Studio trying to hard and RDJ who wanted Justin Theroux to write the script for Iron Man 2.

Your plain idiotic if you would choose favreau over downey...People saw the film mostly for RDJ's performance not for favreau

@jazzman - I vote Leigh Speight 'The mighty rasta' as rhodey hahaha 'YOU READY FOR THE PAIN TRAIN WOOWOO'

I'm sure Downey and Favereau had ther differences but I believe Downey when he says they are still friendly. Favereau just did not feel like Iron Man 2 was his movie I'm guessing. It is sad but I think we are for a hell of a ride with Shane Black directing Iron Man 3.

Whoever is saying [frick] downey is a goddamn TOOL. Dont understand how you can say that. Downey is Tony Stark and he's done it fantastically. Im not saying he single handedly made the franchise...of course not. Fav's done a great job too. I mean the first Iron Man killed it, i mean ball out the park shizz.

But with Iron man 2, i have to say i was expecting so much and it didnt really hit the mark and im pretty sure RDJ knows this aswell. Thats possibly why they had their differences, IM2 could have been dope but it seemed Fav's tried to put too much in and it felt rushed and too compact. I mean SLJ could have been a lot better in the film as well but it just felt like a shoddy representation of FURY...maybe it was SLJ's fault...maybe it was the lines and the direction?? Who knows.. but either nothing in the film really hit home and i think they need a new direction for the 3rd. I mean think about it..comic book writers and artists change all the time and we get different representations, so why cant this happen in films??

Think about it people...lets get a new take on things. As long as we keep RDJ and the same characters mainly. I for one dont mind if we get different representations.

@SageMode - I need to watch the version of the movie that you watched. Cause the Iron Man II I saw was a disappointment compared to the first film.

Bet they're going straight to Kevin James to fill that Happy Hogan void.

It's all in the past people, get over it, it wasn't that bad. Let's just hope 3 is good :)

Nerds are so passionate.

shogun warriors as the villains lol.
