Mickey Rourke To Star In Iron Man 2, Also Every Film Ever Made

by Stuart Heritage

Yesterday we implied that Mickey Rourke’s comeback would consist of The Wrestler, a rubbish Stallone movie and nothing else.

Terrence Howard Cobbed Off About Iron Man 2 Replacement

by Stuart Heritage

Iron Man 2 was going to be Terrence Howard’s big chance to shine, at least until he got the boot in favour of Don Cheadle.

Even now, nobody has any idea about why Terrence Howard was sacked from Iron Man 2 – not even Terrence Howard himself. In fact, Howard claims that he’s still in the dark about it all. All he knows is that he’s angry enough to wail about it to anyone close to him who happens to be holding a microphone.

Still though, Terrence Howard will get the last laugh here. After all, Iron Man 2 might be one of the biggest movies in history, but can Don Cheadle look himself in the eye and say that he’s making a rubbishy Karate Kid knock-off about street fighting that starts Channing Tatum? No. No he cannot. So in that respect, Terrence Howard wins. He loses the bits about being rich and famous and powerful, but he wins the Karate Kid bit.

Don Cheadle To Bring His Awful Cockney Accent To Iron Man 2

by Stuart Heritage

Terrence Howard got a raw deal out of Iron Man – his sole job was to follow Robert Downey Jr around disapprovingly for a while.

In fact, an Oscar-winning actor like Terrence Howard probably only agreed to star in Iron Man in the first place because his role would grow exponentially in Iron Man 2, where he’d become War Machine. Except it won’t now, because Terrence Howard isn’t going to be in Iron Man 2.

Thanks to rumoured financial disagreements, Howard is out of Iron Man 2, and he’ll be replaced by Don Cheadle – the man whose godawful British accent ruined Ocean’s 11 and its sequels. There are bound to be some cosmetic changes to the script because of this casting change – for example, to suit Cheadle’s voice, War Machine will now only be referred to as Woooaaar Mableedingchine Innit Guv’nor Chin Chin Toodlepip Mary Poppins.

Robert Downey Jr is Too Dumb to Understand The Dark Knight. His Words…

by Ian Dransfield

Robert Downey Jr was known for some things, then everyone forgot who he was, then they remembered again. And now that the people of the world once again recognise Robert Downey Jr in the street – and now that he’s likely off the smack and charlie – people are more likely to listen to him. [...]

Iron Man 2: The Painfully Inevitable Sequel, Coming Soon

by Stuart Heritage

So by now everyone on the face of the planet, even those who are blind or can’t afford to eat, have seen Iron Man.

With an opening weekend box office tally of $100 million, the list of records that Iron Man has broken is either stupendous or utterly, utterly dull depending on if you’re a massive spod or not. And if you are, then the news that Iron Man 2 is coming out in April 2010 will probably make your balls catch on fire.

What? You’d already guessed that based on the fact that the plot of Iron Man deliberately set up a sequel and that the entire Iron Man cast has signed on for a sequel and that Iron Man’s a comic book movie and only really hopeless comic book movies about Ben Affleck being all blind and shit don’t get turned into sequels? Oh, suit yourselves.
