In case you haven't gotten a chance to see them yet:

Iron Man 2:

Tron Legacy:

The Iron Man 2 trailer maybe gives away too much story and is definitely disjointed in feel (it seems to change tone randomly), but I'll be damned if the movie doesn't look like fun. That little bit at the end there is great service to fans of the classic Iron Man comic.

I'll never complain about having to look at Scarlet Johansson, but she is a bit soft looking for the Black Widow. I'll wait and see how she does in more than the tiny bit we see here though.

I'm also still not sure that Ultimate Fury works... Hopefully I'm wrong, as they've already paid Sam Jackson for something like 9 movies worth of him.


Unlike the Iron Man 2 trailer, the Tron Legacy trailer is awesome... I just have more doubts about the actual movie itself. Still, the people working on that one know how to cut a trailer and get me excited about a nearly 30 year old premise being revisited.

I have to wonder if they revealed more plot to quiet all of the "Why is Whiplash the villain" talk that's been going on ever since it was revealed he was the villain. Seeing that there is a threat beyond Whiplash is nice.

The trailer shows the movie will be a lot of fun, though I'm hoping we get War Machine for more than one fight scene (I'm guessing he'll fight Tony at one point and then that "Armor Wars" scene in the trailer...I hope we get him in maybe a solo combat scene or something).

The briefcase armour is pretty awesome, as it was a signature piece of the character. Having it be a more lightweight version of the armour is perfect acceptable (considering his full suit needs a full tech support system to put it on and remove it).

I noticed in the new posters that came out that Iron Man's chest now has a triangular glowing center instead of the circle. I find that interesting, since that glowing circle has been played up a lot as a pseudo-logo for Iron Man; I'm just surprised they changed it at this point due to branding purposes.

I'm willing to see how she does before I judge her; I don't know if I've seen anything with her in it.

Sam Jackson will put butts in the seats, though I agree I'd rather have classic Fury than Ultimate Fury.

I'll have to watch this later.
