Meditations on the Iron Man Trailer
September 11th, 2007 Posted in Musing
Alright so I just watched the trailer, yes I know it was up yesterday, yes I should have watched it yesterday but I’ve been kind of busy with other things.
Random thoughts:
- Robert Downey Junior is indeed still the perfect person to play Tony Stark. Perfect.
- Best line ever is still the one I quoted a few weeks ago about him being Davinci and being the merchant of death.
- The progression of suits is awesome, I totally geeked out.
- The use of the Black Sabbath song was stupid, it totally needed a cover of it. Their song was too slow, it needed more upbeat for the clips they showed.
- Yes, I squeaked in excitement when you saw him flying next to some F-18s.
- I loved the breaking the sound barrier and seeing the sonic bubble around him.
May 8th can’t come soon enough. I officially offer my soul to get into the preview viewings of it.

Well little bit of a soul I have left will also be in sacrifice to see this as early as possible.

Well, as Billy Joel once said, it’s all about soul.

I thought using the Black Sabbath song was a bad choice, too. Mainly because it’s too obvious; they should have gotten a good composer to write a new song, instead of one that everyone in the audience already associates with the high-school parking lot.
