LOL, I don't even know who Robert Downey, jr is.

Here is the IMDb page for Robert Downey, Jr. which might tell you a little more about him:

Hmmm. Don't think I've ever seen a movie with him in it.

USA Today has the first image from Iron Man 2:

Not much to see there, but it's interesting that there's a fourth armor in the background. The first movie only had three.

I am also anxious to see this since they're exploring the darker side of Tony in this one :alcoholism. I am excited that Don Cheadle is going to be in it but it's kinda weird about Cheadle and Howard. I still don't fully understand the story about Howard's contract.

My understanding about the Howard issue is basically that it came down to money. Supposedly, he was the highest paid actor in the first movie. Marvel wanted to reduce how much they were willing to pay, but they went too low and his agent basically said "No way." So instead Marvel went with another actor and altered the role of the character.

The same thing was happening with Sam Jackson, but they worked something out there and signed him for a very long contract.

In my opinion, that picture looks really bad. I hope the character turns out better in the movie.

"Iron Man 2 " hasn't even debuted in the United States yet and the movie has done very well overseas, already grossing over $100 Million:

The movie opens in the US this Friday.

Anyone planning on going to see it????
