Kevin Feige Talks Marvel’s PHASE TWO Approach; GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY Is “95% In Space”
This news should make a lot of folks happy. Sometimes the people behind big, space epics think you need a portion of the film to be set on Earth so that audiences can have some sort of emotional connection to the lead characters. True in some cases but I don't think you need that for something like Guardians of the Galaxy.

IRON MAN 3: 2nd Theatrical Trailer Officially Released (Showing Iron Army & Hulkbuster)
What a trailer! Shane Black appears to have crafted a thrilling third entry in the Iron Man franchise and The Mandarin looks to be a serious threat. Now only if we can get confirmation to debunk that rumored 109 minute runtime and then we'd be golden.

New IRON MAN 3 Details From Robert Downey Jr.
Lots of ground covered here. Does Robert Downey Jr. think it's his last outing as Tony Stark? How are contract negotiations progressing between the studio and his agents? How was it having Jon Favreau on set but someone else in the director's chair? Read all about it in this article.

Kevin Feige Teases THE AVENGERS 2 Roster Shift & Introducing Magic In DOCTOR STRANGE
“I’m not looking at Phase One as grounded and Phase Two as cosmic and Phase Three as magic." Sure you're not. Can't wait to get to Phase Three!

Find Out How Lex Luthor Will AGAIN Show Up in MAN OF STEEL - SPOILERS Ahead!
Read the above story at your own peril. Apparently someone reckons they know how Lex Luthor will feature in Zack Snyder's Man of Steel. On the off chance that this rumor was true I opted not to read it. Can you resist the temptation?

WHY did you include the Lex Luthor spoiler in the tittle?

Totally unfair for the fans and users who dont want to know all the spoilers of the movie
lapress - 3/9/2013, 8:39 AM
@ gambgel yeah i didn't know either. can i report for trolling?
ACira - 3/9/2013, 9:51 AM
@gambgel and lapress I've read the article and it's poorly titled. It doesn't spoil anything, unless you read the article itself.

Hey guys, I've been thinking... you know how they've been saying Mandarin's rings won't be magical/alien/superpowered in Iron Man 3? Has it ever been discussed or speculated whether or not he will use the Extremis virus in the film? It'd certainly level the playing field between him and Iron Man in terms of physical power. I was reading this months Empire today, and there was a mention of Extremis users being able to go toe to toe with Iron Man, and possibly being strong enough to cause damage to the armour with their bare hands.
Plus, in the comics, the Extremis can also give superpowers, usually fire and electricity based, as well as the usual strength, speed, invulnerability/healing, etc. It could be an interesting way of giving Mandarin some of the powers he has in the comics, but without tying them to his rings. What do you think?

They've pretty much addressed all the Avengers and their roles in Avengers 2 except for Hawkeye. It makes you wonder if he's even gonna make an appearance. I for one was hoping they'd give him a bigger role this tme around.

All great newsies.
I'm hyped for Doctor Strange appearing and i'm also hyped for Lex Luthor's appearance in Man Of Steel even if it is just a rumour.

Thanks for the new's.

@ballzdeep - ...huh?
jerryblake - 3/9/2013, 10:55 PM
But who will play the Doctor ?
No for Johny Depp.
Is Jude Law available ?
ACira - 3/10/2013, 10:32 AM
@jerryblake apparently Jude Law is a fan of comics and superhero movies, and I think he's said he would like to do one as well. He might be a good choice for Doctor Strange. Good thinking.
