Iron Man 2 poster....it's War Machine baby!!!!


This poster gives us a first look on how War Machine will look like in the 2nd installment of Iron Man. He looks good.....though one can't really decipher whether he's on Iron Man's side or otherwise. In the comics these two men of iron had a war of words and later became heated arguements leading them to face off each other....although in the end they became good friends as they were. Guess we'd have to wait for May 7, 2010 then....

On the other hand, like most of the fans, I can't really understand why Terrence Howard (that's the actor who played James "Rhodey" Rhodes in the 1st film) made such a big fuss about his contract (payment dispute) which later led to him being 'expelled' from the franchise. It could've taken him far....even further and beyond the Iron Man movie franchise......remember that the Avengers film is coming around 2011! Man, I just hate it when filmakers replace the noticeable actors in sequels! It's kinda like us annoyingly and noticably noticing that the character Jennifer, girlfriend (and later wife in the future scene) to Marty McFly form the Back to the Future franchise were played by two different actresses! (well to me it's kinda disrupts the continuity, at least in my books...*sigh*).

On the 1/6 action figure world, I'm pretty convinced that Hot Toys is gonna cannibalise parts from their Mark II figure to more or less construct the main components of War Machine's armour.....let's see if my predictions are correct!
