My utilisation of complex locution to ask what's more pathetic, fans who worship their
movie actors, or the actors who couldn't give a damn, is more a reflection of my own
superincumbent mental actuity than any circumscribed lexicon. Don't you agree?

Jon Favereau talks to MTV on Iron Man
MTV: Where are you on "Iron Man" today?
Favreau: There's a lot of effects work that's going to be happening in the next six months. The movie is pretty much going to be everything that it's going to be by the end of January. Because so much of it is animated and CGI you have to turn it over and let those people do their work on it. So we'll be done in about a month with all the big creative decisions. And then the rest of it becomes about scoring and sound design.
MTV: Have you shown it to friends you trust?
Favreau: Yeah, I showed it to Vince [Vaughn] not long ago. He's always been a very helpful collaborator. We have very similar tastes in storytelling. He brings a lot to the table in terms of giving a reaction that I trust. His big thing is story. Is it as strong a story as it can be? And that's what you're constantly hammering at when you're trying to get a movie right. All the other stuff tends to fall into place. What's nice about "Iron Man" is it's a clean canvas and I get to use what's in the books. I chose to stay fairly true to it, but I left enough room for myself and the performers to deviate a little bit and take a few left turns. It's nice to be able to start my own world within the Marvel universe.
MTV: How long a running time are you shooting for?
Favreau: Probably between [an hour and 45 minutes and two hours]. I don't think it should go much longer than two. We have to see how it plays.
MTV: When are we going to see some more footage from the film?
Favreau: What's fun is that in the next few months, we're going to get huge chunks of effects coming back to us. You don't want to come out with something unless it's a quantum leap from the last stuff shown.
MTV: There's talk of a Super Bowl ad. Would you recommend that I TiVo the game?
Favreau: I would. [He laughs.]
MTV: Marvel producer Avi Arad confirmed to us that Hilary Swank will appear in the film.
Favreau: You're going to have to talk to Avi. I'm amazed by what I see printed and what I hear in interviews. There are not a lot of secrets left, so I'm not going to comment much. I will not confirm or deny.
MTV: How about Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury?
Favreau: That's another interesting question. Right now the only thing that's saving me is the white noise out there. I don't like lying to the fans, but that doesn't mean I have to spill all the secrets either.
MTV: Is there a cameo for you in the film?
Favreau: I did do a cameo. It's nothing to speak of. I'm a glorified extra but with a lot of future potential. I've removed almost all of my dialogue. We shot a lot of movie, so now we're in the winnowing-down process and part of that is losing everything that's not exceptional, and unfortunately my performance falls into that category. [He laughs.]
MTV: You can show off your recent massive weight loss.
Favreau: I know. We're going to have to do some CGI to make me match. [He laughs.] We shot over the course of several months, and I dropped 80-90 pounds total over the course of the movie.
MTV: There's also been talk of a scene in which Iron Man encounters the Hulk.
Favreau: Again, I don't want to confirm or deny any of this stuff. I think it's a fun game. Every Marvel fan is like Columbo. They can take in very little information and they can piece together the whole scene of the crime. But I'm not going to show any cards before I have to.

That interview has the combined effect of telling me absolutely nothing new about the movie... and causing me to want to see it like crazy!

A little more on the Iron Man/Hulk Crossover Scene(s):
How is Tony Stark in The Incredible Hulk?
Ain't It Cool News has posted a rumor about how the Iron Man/The Incredible Hulk cross-over might work (Possible Spoiler Ahead!):
So the scene that was shot was for the Hulk with General Thunderbolt who is very important to the Hulk. Anyway, Tony Stark meets with him - which of course is a straight prelude to the Avengers Movie.
Iron Man director Jon Favreau stayed mum on the subject in yesterday's interview with MTV.

Iron Man had a Super Bowl trailer. Any thoughts? I thought the CGI was a little over the top but I am willing to forgive because the footage was pretty amazing. I was mainly surprised by how bright the film was, we see Iron Man flying through the brights of day. A lot of Comic Book movies keep their characters in the dark to enhance the mystery and I was surprised by this move.

The only thing that got me really jazzed was seeing the shot of him hovering in the garage (see above) as the suit sort of unfurls itself all over him.

"Yeah...I can fly."
I don't know how many more ways you can say that Downey's perfect for this, but he's perfect for this. Although that very last shot with the tank looked really Gamecube-y in the end.
But, still, Robert Downey, Jr. is playing Iron Man in a big-budget summer movie. That's STILL almost too surreal to think about.

I loved the TV spot. Especially the shots of the Mark II Armor being used and the Iron Monger armor running.
