Ironman 3 starring Guy Pearce, and Ben Kingsley...heck yes.
I think this will be the best Marvel movie put out since Ironman 2, lol.
That Patriot suit looks beautiful and I already count at least 3 new Hot Toys figures for this movie,
It would be nice if Sideshow did a 1/4 scale sculpture of the Patriot suit Ironman. I do not own a single Ironman figure or sculpt...I think I will wait until Sideshow puts out some stuff after part 3 is out.
Every Ironman fan like myself should at least have one Ironman figure...I just do not like the cheap plastic from Hot Toys and am not too happy with Sideshow's Polystone version...the one I like I am not paying $2000.00 for...so like I said I'll just wait and see what Hot Toys and Sideshow has to offer down the road.
...however it does appear that we will be getting another kickass Ironman movie...have to go read up more as I am curious as to who the Mandarin villain really is.
Well, here is a small amount of info:
Iron Man 3 Day continues apace with EW unveiling the first look at Sir Ben Kingsley's Mandarin, the bad guy set to put Tony Stark through his paces over the course of the highly-anticipated threequel.
The character of The Mandarin was considered by many (including writer/director Shane Black) as too racially insensitive to be portrayed on screen, but Marvel head honcho Kevin Feige has explained how Sir Ben is going to play the originally Oriental baddie: by not actually being Chinese.
“It’s less about his specific ethnicity than the symbolism of various cultures and iconography that he perverts for his own end,” Feige told EW.
As the hidden, shadowy manipulator whose helped The Ten Rings terrorists in the first film and aided Whiplash magically get to Monaco with a huge amount of very dangerous equipment get revenge against the man with the coolest beard in the Marvel universe (sorry Mr. Fury), it is only now that Mr. Stark's archenemy has let his presence become known.
To get a better feel for Madarin's dark look on life, remember that back in the Comic-Con footage Empire saw earlier this year, his lines were these: “Some people call me a terrorist. I consider myself a teacher,” and “Lesson number one: Heroes – there is no such thing.”
With Sir Ben Kingsley going full bad guy again, fans can only hope he can be more Don from Sexy Beast than Gandhi from, um, Gandhi. Or, for that matter, Mizam from Prince Of Persia.
