Nice... I wonder what else we'll get in this movie. Marvel has learned and was able to juggle a lot with Avengers.

I'm confident this movie will be good.

Rhodey wasn't in the Avengers because:
a) maybe the suit was being repaired
b) maybe he was on a mission in some middle-east country
c) maybe he was on his way,he just didn't make it in time for the action.
or d) vacations :P

They should have replaced him. This will throw people off. People aren't used to the same actor playing War Machine two movies in a row. :P

Good TO know cheadle will be in it. I wonder if they'll play a little bit more into Iron Man & War Machine's partnership or if rodey will continuously be the wall that holds tony up right whn he's about to fall.

He wasn't in Avengers because the government controls him and they didn't even want to go through with the Avengers Initiative. They wanted to blow up Manhattan lol Would've been cool if they made War Machine the one to fire the nuke.

Don Cheadle sucked in Iron man 2 but I have to accept the fact that he's War Machine lol

*Yawn*

Why does Stark have his Mark 2 suit on display if it became the War Machine armor in Iron Man 2?

M) Being a highly valued asset of the governments military, they would not be sending him in to help a situation they already deemed lost and containable only by nuking Manhattan island!

They could easily explain as to why he wasn't in The Avengers.

1. He tried to join and Fury had SHIELD Agents stop him.

2. He was on the otherside of the war trying to send troops and marines and acting as an Eagle's Eye for the Military and perhaps SHIELD.

3. Tony could've asked him to watch over Pepper.

However, I'm sure Tony will make a reference to it, Shane Black's dialogue is witty (Not as much as Joss' though) and he can make that conversation about "Where was Rhodey" very sarcastic and funny.

He was probably still in the west coast while tony was in new york..doubt he follows him everywhere. Plus he's in the military so he may have had orders to not go

@SuspenseSmith

Unless there is another scene which I didn't see, Loki possess Barton, 1 SHEILD agent and Dr. Dr. Selvig, who all escape in the chase at the begining. It is later explained that any other help Loki gets is provided from SHEILD enemies, who they have no shortage off. So Fury isn't really Shooting his own men.

@weneedrevelation

Agreed. While Cheadle is a good actor he isn't War Machine for me. When I heard they were looking for a new actor around the time before filming began on "Iron Man 2" that picture of Downey and Fox came out as they had just been in "The Soloist" together. Fox has the badarse thats necessary, looks the part and can back up the acting with it. Oh well.
