REVIEW: Iron Man 3
Marvel Studios kicked off their movie experiment with Iron Man in 2008, and began the road to Avengers with 2010′s Iron Man 2, so it’s only fitting that Iron Man 3 is the first post Avengers movie, and is used to kick-off Marvel’s Phase 2. With a new writer and director calling the shots, does Iron Man 3 crack under the weight of expectation?

MOVIES: A.I.M. gets a moment in Iron Man 3
So where to the evil scientists in the upcoming Iron Man 3 movie come from? If the latest image from the set gives us any indication, they all start out wearing yellow jumpsuits.

Major Spoilers Question Of The Day: What’s In A Name Edition
Reports from the set of Iron Man 3 indicate that an armor resembling Norman Osborn’s Iron Patriot suit are set to appear. Moreover, the suit’s pilot is reportedly not Norm-O, but Eric Savin aka Coldblood-7 (last seen unconscious on the battlefield during the Civil War crossover.) Aside from the obviously cool visual of a Fourth of July Iron Man suit, though, I find myself wondering why they wouldn’t create a new charater for the movie. Or, even better, why not use the similar Detroit Steel, who holds the double benefit of being both active in the current-day Marvel Universe AND actually being an Iron Man foe, unlike Osborn or Savin.

MOVIES: Avengers success leads to more money for Iron Man 3
