Iron Man 3 (2013) - Shane Black

[JRibeiro]

Just two days after The Avengers became the third most successful movie of all time, production has started on Iron Man 3 in North Carolina. Marvel and Disney released this first photo from the film today and it looks like Tony Stark is busy in the lab again. With Shane Black taking the director’s seat from Jon Favreau, the sequel will be filming in Wilmington, North Carolina, as well as in Florida and China. The gang’s all back with Robert Downey Jr. once again playing billionaire Stark as well as the Amored Avenger himself. Gwyneth Paltrow returns as Pepper Potts, Don Cheadle as James “Rhodey” Rhodes and Favreau himself, who is also one of the executive producers on the flim, as Stark’s driver Happy Hogan. Iron Man 3 is set to come out on May 3, 2013.

O mais certo é o vilão ser o Mandarim.

Iron Man 3: What Does Patriotic Armour Suggest About The Plot?



While Avengers Assemble continues to rake in the cash at box office (seriously, if you haven’t watched it by now stop reading this and go watch it now) Marvel is now reading its “Second Wave” of films. Casino Royale villain Mads Mikkelsen has just been cast in Thor 2; Captain America 2 is rumoured to be a Bond spy villain affair and Mark Ruffalo’s turn in Avengers Assemble is said to have the bods at Marvel considering another return to film for the Jade Giant.

And then there’s Iron Man 3…

There were some big reports breaking last night with Latino Review saying that the Mandarin will indeed feature in Iron Man 3 and The Superficial releasing an image of Iron Man armour with an American Flag motif. With a few comic books to hand, let’s try and figure out what we can hope to expect from Iron Man 3 based on these revelations.

If the rumours are true, Iron Man 3 will draw heavily from Warren Ellis’ Iron Man: Extremis storyline. In the comic, Extremis is a process for an updated super soldier serum that uses nanobots to turn its subject into a weapon. After suffering critical injuries fighting a new villain, Tony Stark injects himself with the Extremis process and becomes “post human”, storing part of the suit within the hollows of his own bones. Tony Stark becomes Iron Man, inside and out.

In Iron Man we saw Stark make the suit; in Iron Man 2 we saw him fix it and sort out the palladium poisoning; so it only makes sense that Iron Man 3 draws from the Extremis story to give us a big screen version of the liquid armour suit. Not to mention it’d be pretty sweet to see.

Now we know for a fact that Ben Kingsley has been cast in the film but the role he will play is still surrounded in mystery. We’re putting the smart money on him being the Mandarin, because Latino Review has a good track record in breaking superhero stories. While Marvel continues to deny that Kingsley will play the role of Tony Stark’s greatest foe, we do know that he’ll play a character who “weaves a plot that revolves around the spread of a virus through nanobots.”

Also, Iron Man 3 will be partly shot and co-produced in China which is the home of the fictional villain, and the Ten Rings terrorist organisation has been featured in the first two Iron Man films. The Mandarin uses 10 rings of power as his major source of weaponry. Furthermore, in a later Iron Man comic, Iron Man: Director of S.H.I.E.L.D,the Mandarin works on a plot to unleash Extremis on the world population. Marvel may deny it, but it seems awfully likely that Ben Kingsley will play the Mandarin, working side by side with the film’s main confirmed villain, Aldrich Killian, a geneticist and co-creator of the Extremis process who will be played by Guy Pearce.

But that’s not all…

The Superficial and Coming Soon have reported that we’ll be seeing the red white and blue Iron Patriot armour in the film. Now, in the comics the suit was donned by Norman Osborn in his Dark Avengers days. Obviously Osborn can’t feature in Iron Man 3 due to Sony’s ownership of the Spider-Man franchise, so who will be donning the Patriot armour? The Superficial is claiming it’ll be worn by Eric Savin, aka the cyborg Coldblood, who will be played by James Badge Dale. In the comics, Savin isn’t a character associated with Iron Man. Might it be worn by Don Cheadle in a weird spin on War Machine? At the moment your guess is as good as ours.

If all the rumours are indeed true we could be looking at a superhero film with three villains and the last film I remember doing that was Spider-Man 3 which suffered from trying to juggle them all. In Iron Man 2 when Tony started DJing wearing the suit we started worrying that the series might turn into a Spider-Man 3/Saturday Night Fever dance show but for now, we have faith that the new writer and director to the series, Shane Black will come up good.

Iron Man 3 is scheduled to hit cinemas on 3 May 3 2013.

RDJ faz uma surpresa aos miúdos vestidos de Iron-Man

Já foi confirmado que o vilão será o Mandarin.

Cool!

E vai haver pudim!?

[ruben]

[Cabeças]

Cool!

E vai haver pudim!?

Nunca pensei que alguém ainda se lembrasse disso! Lembro-me que a minha Avó do lado do meu pai ficava desvairada com pudin flan.

Quanto ao Iron Men 3, venha ele! Gostei muito do primeiro e achei o 2º muito mais fraquinho (e com momentos de humor muito mal conseguidos), a ver se este recupera o impacto inicial.

[Bladder]

É um bom pudim, ainda faço de vez em quando

Isto cheira-me um bocado a Iron Man Rises, vamos ver.

O Shane Black é um bom argumentista e um realizador decente.

Eu ia dizer que não estaria à vontade com um filme high tech destes mas também é verdade que terá o apoio dos produtores, da Marvel e do Favreau.

De uma maneira ou de outra posso apostar num filme com personagens mais bem delineadas.

Também não gostei lá muito do Iron Man 2, dizem que muito ficou no chão da sala de montagem, achei que ficou demasiado longo em certas coisas e menos noutras que necessitavam de mais exposição.

[leaodocinema]

Grandes expetativas para este filme. Preferi o primeiro em relação ao segundo, mas daquilo que este trailer mostrou parece que vai ser excelente. Alguem sabe se já saiu alguma informação se este filme vai falar sobre Os Vingadores 2?

[DarkPhoenix]

O trailer do Superbowl reforça a ideia de desespero, fragilidade do herói face ao implacável Mandarin.
Excelentes perspectivas, por favor "don't fuck this up".
Quero que o tom do filme reflicta o que temos visto nos trailers.

[Elliot]

Pois na minha opinião ambos os primeiros filmes são fraquissimos. Esta é a tipica série a precisar de um reboot com novos atores e realizador.

Acho que estavas a pensar no Fantastic Four!

Não podia discordar mais de ti neste caso...

(E o realizador é novo!)

[Elliot]

Sim, os 2 Fantastic Four tb não passam de 2 telediscos de 1h30 cada.

[DarkPhoenix]

Mas qual reboot?!?
Iron Man é um dos melhores filmes do género, está no topo e não perde para nenhum outro.
O elenco é absolutamente perfeito, imaculado!

A sequela deixou muito a desejar, mas mesmo assim não se pode considerar um mau filme.

Tenho algum medo da mudança de realizador,mas segue a esperança...
