The lovely folks at M-Net Movies are giving away 20 double tickets (4 a day for the rest of this week) for their upcoming Iron Man 3 premiere. The premiere’s on Tuesday April 30th at MonteCasino. We’ve been to a few of these and they’re usually very well organized and accommodating to everyone who’s there.

The more I hear about the upcoming Man of Steel movie, the more excited I become. Even “visionary director” Zack Snyder’s name hasn’t been enough to scare me away anymore. There’ve been a ton of Marvel’s Iron Man clips but very few from Superman’s new outing, which is a good thing, because when they come, they’re as awesome as this latest one: a message from General Zod to the people of Earth.

I can’t even begin to pretend I understand American football; a sport involving something like 10 minutes of actual play followed by 15 minutes of “strategy”, followed by another 10 minutes of play. Wash. Rinse. Repeat. But you know what I can get behind? Movie trailers. And lots of them. See, the Superbowl may be “the biggest sporting event in the world” (I heard that on TV), but it’s also the biggest advertising spectacular in the world, filled to the brim with new short trailers for all the movies we’re most looking forward to this summer.

For most people, the war for the Number #1 superhero movie spot this year probably went to either Avengers or The Dark Knight Rises, but for me there was only one clear winner: The Amazing Spider-Man. I loved the way it balanced out the humanistic and emotional elements that make Spider-Man the greatest character in superhero comics, with the visually entertaining and interesting action sequences that make him one of the most fun characters to watch.

In a world obsessed with darkness and world-ending catastrophes, superheroes are supposed to be the answer to our feelings of despair: the few who can, through their own resilience, hold off the darkness in human souls. Marvel’s Iron Man is the perfect example of a normal guy (you know, minus the genius intellect and unlimited budget) with normal character flaws (alcoholism and douchiness) who can stave off the end of the world by nuking a sentient alien race like it’s nothing and then go back to his day-to-day activities of generating insane revenue and giving the US military-industrial complex several mild coronaries.

It’s a weird world where the trailers for movies are so popular that they get their own trailers, but that’s the world we live in. So here it is, the teaser for the trailer for Iron Man 3. The trailer itself comes out later this week but you can find the official plot blurb below.

No, wait, not THOSE guys.
2 Asian Dudes are a Youtube team who’ve put together this amazing short, The Avengers In Real Life!, starring some pretty lo-fi versions of Captain America, Thor, Iron Man and Hulk, chasing down a Loki that looks like he murders children in his spare time.
This weekend’s San Diego Comic Con looks like it must’ve been more epic than any year before it, and in keeping with that, Marvel Studios unveiled various details about its upcoming slate of Marvel superhero movies. Lots of interesting tidbits below…
We’ve seen him fight The Dude in Iron Man, Randy The Ram in Iron Man 2 and, uhhhh, exterminate an entire race of sentient beings using a nuclear weapon in Marvel’s Avengers, but despite his crimes, Marvel Studios will be bringing Tony Stark and his invincible suit of armor back to the big screens in 2013!
Marvel Studios’ Avengers movie is only a few weeks away (it has a local release date of April 26th, I believe) and all the news from the recent Hollywood premier makes it sound like director Joss Whedon absolutely killed it bringing Earth’s Mightiest Heroes to the big screen. Boss! We already know Marvel has plans for Iron Man 3 to come out on May 3, 2013, for Thor 2 to make a November 15, 2013 release date, and that Captain America 2 just recently had its release shifted back to April 4, 2014.
