CODE: Look — let’s be real — they didn’t get Downey because he would be a good Iron Man. They got him because he would be a great Tony Stark. Remember Stark and Downey share a 12 step program or two.

BOMB QUEEN: Hey, any drug addict is a friend of mine. But if Robert Downey, Jr. wants a real woman, he can put that skinny skank Paltrow down and get his iron up under my sheets. Too bad Favreau is directing. I mean, he’s an actor, he a director, he’s a writer… People who can’t make up their minds need to be led, not direct others. That’s why I’m a dictator, amigo.

SNAKE: What the hell kinda name is “Pepper Potts” anyway? Was “Salty Saucepan” taken?

LOU: Well, I like the trend. You could have all sorts of delicious sounding names this way… “Cookie McJar”, “Fried Chicken Von Cutting Board”, um… “Meatloaf”…

SNAKE: You really oughtta consider assisted suicide.

SKRAP: I mean I really like Downey Jr., he’s definitely gully… but come on, who can pull of Tony Starks’ mustache better than Tom Selleck!!

ROB REILLY: I am definitely skeptical of yet another Marvel movie, though I have respect for Jon Favreau’s directorial talents, except for Elf… *cough* LAME *cough*. Without a doubt Downey Jr. can pull off a drunk millionaire, he was one for many many years. In all seriousness, enough with the superhero movies, when’s the next Road to Perdition or History of Violence gonna peek it’s head out!
