Whereas, for me, I liked the first ten minutes, and the last ten minutes.
I liked many minutes of the film. There were some minutes I disliked, and also some minutes I was indifferent to.

Minute 28 is easily the best in the whole movie. They should release it on a separate DVD.
Pussies. Musical cue 128 was the only reason to see the film.

Rourke as Whiplash
Rockwell as Justin Hammer
I don't know the villains, but the casting is already awesome.
Yeah, that's all I can say in regards to this, too.
SuperHeroHype.com is reporting Rourke as both Whiplash AND the Crimson Dynamo. WTF?
Rockwell will be a great Hammer, though I always thought he was an older fellow.
EDIT: Actually, it now only says Rourke as Dynamo. Which is awesome, though many will see it as a rehash of the first.

Is this for Captain America or Thor? Because I don't know the villains to know what comic they're from.

If I'm not mistaken, Rockwell's character is a rival businessman who becomes obsessed with destroying Stark. Rourke is (probably) playing a russian arms dealer who ends up being given the Crimson Dynamo suit (an exoskeleton similar to Stark's but built more for strength and defense).
Superherohype also reports they are still casting for an assistant for Stark named Natasha...perhaps the Black Widow?

Paul Bettany will be back as Jarvis.
And I thought it was funny that, in the interview where he confirms his return for the sequel, he mentioned that he had completely forgotten that he was even in the first movie :lol:

Samuel L. Jackson might not be Nick Fury anymore???
First Howard, now Jackson...:sad:

Casting changes... Joe Johnston...
Now might be a good time to start bracing yourself for a massive onslaught of suck, meg.
Wow, Marvel is offering Mickey Rourke the wonderful sum of $250,000 to play Crimson Dynamo.
It seems they're following up a year of success by being total twats.

Minor role?
No, it sounds like he's the main villain. Or one of two main villains (there are rumors that The Mandarin may be in it as well).
"All right, that's too hot. Anything we can do about that heat?"
"Rick...it's a flamethrower."
Yeah, Rockwell is playing someone in it.
Yeah he's just a businessman from the sounds of it, unless they have some wild card up their sleeves.
In terms of villainy, probably equivalent to Lao in The Dark Knight.

Justin Hammer was part of the comics off and on for 21 years, it looks like. I've always been under the impression that he's one of the bigger IM villains. (Which is kinda like being one of the smartest kids with down's syndrome, but still.)

He is a pretty significant villain, although not a super-villain. He's more like Stane is in the first movie, except he doesn't suit up himself, he gets Rourke to do it.
Movie Theater Diary
Another casting loss.
Emily Blunt has left Iron Man 2 to star in Gulliver's Travels.
"All right, that's too hot. Anything we can do about that heat?"
"Rick...it's a flamethrower."
This just in: my interest in Iron Man 2 has just fallen, while surprisingly my interest in Gulliver's Travels is on the rise.
kinda glad, she didn't seem to be right for black widow at all
but i really haven't seen anything she's been in, so i could be wrong
The fact that you had interest in Gullivar's Travels to begin with is just sad.
Sure why not?

Yes, it's much different than comic book movie #472. How absurd of me.
Comic Book Movie #472 isn't being directed and written by the guy who did Shark Tale.Yes, it's much different than comic book movie #472. How absurd of me.
