I've seen that Iron Man 2 is considered the "hottest" movie of 2010. Temperature aside, I think this movie will turn out wonderfully. I love that we've heard rumors of a love triangle in the new movie. At first, I wasn't sure if it would be between Tony, Pepper, and another girl or between Tony, Pepper, and a man for Pepper. Obviously, considering Tony's wealth and lady-killing abilities, I thought it to be the first option. But after doing some research, showing I either A.) hadn't paid enough attention to the first movie, or B.) caught something some didn't, I saw a screenshot of Jon Favreau portraying Happy Hogan, Pepper Potts' eventual groom. So, I checked IMDB, and, sure enough, Jon Favreau is cast as "Hogan" in Iron Man 2. I'm personally really excited to see Happy in a movie. Lemme know how you feel about it and also inform me if everyone else knew about this before I did.
Now, for something I stumbled upon while doing my "Happy" research. My research might be terribly delayed, but I thought I'd share it with those who might have also missed this. IMDB casts Mickey Rourke as "Ivan Vanko/ Whiplash"... Ivan Vanko... Whiplash... Ivan Vanko.......... Whiplash??? Anton "Ivan" Vanko is the Crimson Dynamo! Not Whiplash! I must have misread the comics or the production team mixed up their villains. I couldn't tell you. Hopefully this movie will be so amazing that the mix-up won't be noticeable. Like in TDK when the Joker had scars and make-up rather than an extremely pale exterior with ruby red lips and green locks caused by chemicals. We all overlooked it because the movie was just epic. I think the reason we all liked it was that we left the theater with all of our questions answered. I hope IM2 presents us with a similar satisfaction.
