This movie may be action packed, but don't expect any acting. This is going to be like a group McBains from The Simpsons. Arnold should be worrying about governing his state out of bankruptcy instead of acting.

Okay maybe I got a bit overexcited when I said "great actors". I should have said "my favourite actors" instead because indeed they are some of my favourite actors and I'm pretty hyped about this movie. I'm not expecting any Oscar winning performances, just a good old action packed war movie. With the cast that Sly has got, I think it's going to be pretty great (regardless of whether they give amazing performances or not) So yeah, not "great actors" but a "great cast line-up".

OK, fair enough. It does seem pretty kick-ass, in a fun shoot 'em up sort of way.

Sure does 🙂 I think it will be a really fun movie to watch.

The Dynamo/Whiplash element was denied by Robert Downey(sp?) Jnr himself.

Oh, might be still on for Iron Man II:

he's met with the screenwriter and director and there's a chance they'll work out something (the key word there being 'Give me more money you cheap bastards'😉. Some say Rourke and his people are holding out to see if he wins the Oscar for Best Actor, which would surely give him a bit more leverage in the contract negotiations.

Sorry about adding it in here 😛

This movie is going to fail spectacularly. And it will be awesome to watch at the same time. Epic Fail for the Epic Win!

Hear me out, but I think they should use the Sunturion storyline.
It deals with Iron Man in space, has SHIELD in a similar light as the film portrayed, and could be lengthened out into a feature length movie. Many of the characters from the story can either be replaced by a movie character, is already in the story, or could be added with ease(it's be an awesome introduction to Justin Hammer). Just ditch the flashbacks and it's perfect.

Jet Li and Jason Statham?

The latter sucks but even he's hardly a wash-out.

And yes I know who you're actually referring to. I just like being a dick.

Statham is better than Li, though they both do suck as actors.

How about tasting it?

First footage...but its a small bit.

...What the hell's this doing on this thread? I KNOW I put it in the "Iron Man 2" thread.

mmm

I've been psyched about this movie for a while. I cant wait to see it. The cast is full of straight up pwn.

62 year old Stallone in his role.

Van Damme, Steven Seagal, Chuck Norris, and Bruce Willis should be in the lineup..lol...that would make it complete.

As far as I know...Arnold has only a few minutes, if that, on screen. He probably spent just a few hours doing his scene..if that. He wasn't letting the movie interfere with his gubernatorial responsibilites.
