Iron Man 2 news

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

Howard is out.

This seems like a studio move.

Dumb. I thought he was a good actor in that role.

As did I.

Don Cheadle is a great actor too, but I don't know that he's a good Jim Rhodes. Jim is a big dude and a military guy. Don Cheadle is too small and he doesn't look tough.

We're a racist nation, so as white people we shouldn't care.

Replace him with any ol' minority.

More on Howard's departure.

Things are becoming a bit clearer.

I like Don Cheadle better anyway. Not that I care, being a white racist.

Mickey Rourke is rumored to be playing the villain, who is a martial arts master.

I'm guessing that they're going with Tony's nemesis from the comics, The Mandarin.

Isn't MR pretty much functionally retarded these days? I've seen clips of his new movie. I don't think he is acting.

Did you read the interview with him in this month's Maxim? The guy comes off as a dick. I can see why they dropped him.

I don't read Maxim anymore. I dropped it years ago because I realized they were recycling articles.

Still, I have seen interviews with Howard and he does indeed come off as a dick.

The key is finding the right game. Lots of crap out there. I recommend the Advance Wars series.
