cast iron

so finding its way to news sites and blogosphere is the (alleged) cast photo for the upcoming Iron Man movie.




i don't care what fanboys say: this is a casting coup. who better to suit up as Tony Stark than Robert "Got Demons?" Downey Jr.? if he had his head on straight, we'd be calling him an Oscar winner. Gwyneth "Why Do They Call Me Fishticks" Paltrow already has one. Terrence Howard is just one more breakthrough performance from winning one. and if Jeff Bridges never wins one, he will always be The Dude in our hearts.

now, where's Happy Hogan? i guess Rumiko will make an appearance in the sequel, if the numbers warrant it. i see it makes sense (to the ordinary clueless moviegoers) for Tony to go up against corporate rival Obadiah Stane rather an old Asian geezer with 10 magic rings.

don't blow this, Jon Favreau!
