Video: Iron Man 2 Blu-ray Dissects War Machine

This clip of Marvel's Ralph Macchio talking about War Machine's sexy-yet-deadly supersuit, via Wired, is taken from the featurette “Ultimate Iron Man: The Making of Iron Man 2," which is one of the bonuses included in the Iron Man 2 Blu-ray/DVD combo pack.

Iron Man 2 will be released in its many DVD iterations (DVD/Blu-ray combo, two-disc special edition with a digital copy, single-disc DVD and single-disc Blu-ray), on September 28.

Uncanny X-Men 527 - Go, Marvel Women! Also, Who'd Emma Bang?

So, in Uncanny X-Men No. 527 - which sported this super-feminist variant cover featuring Emma Frost in like, ALL her glory - it's pretty heavily implied that the aforementioned Miss Frost cheated on Cyclops with at least one revolting member of the Marvel Universe.

Tony: Does not look like he likes the ladies. He spent more time plucking his eyebrows than she did!

Emma: "Well, I do like super-skeevy fish guys."

I'm just letting my imagination run wild with this one folks. Nothing to see here, move along.

Let speculation commence!  Participatory speculation!  Who do you think Emma got freaky with? Cast your vote below, and yes, of course multiple choice is allowed!  Emma might just have had herself a busy night while Scott was off getting his brood on in Japan.

The poll will close on September 30 - not 'cause I'm in any rush, just so that people don't vote on this in like the year 2020  when robots rule the world, just because I was sloppy and didn't put a closing date on my polls.

Have fun!  Pretty sure she did!

'Iron Man' writers nab 'TMNT' gig

Art Marcum and Matt Holloway have signed on to pen the new feature film installment of “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles,” which Platinum Dunes is producing for Paramount.

Paramount and Nickelodeon picked up the rights to the comic book characters for around $60 million last year. The companies plan to push out the characters not only in movie form but via a TV show and other mediums.

The turtles have already been seen in movie and cartoon form since being first published in 1984 and starting out as a parody of  Frank Miller’s ninja-filled “Daredevil” run, Chris Claremont’s angst-filled “Uncanny X-Men” run and Dave Sim’s anthropomorphic “Cerebus.” At its height in the late 1980s and early 1990’s, the characters became a worldwide phenomenon.

Depending on the strength of the script, the studio hopes to pin a director ASAP and be into production next year.

Marcum and Holloway established their comic book movie cred by working on the first “Iron Man” movie. They also worked on 2008’s “Punisher: War Zone.” The duo wrote the remake of “Highlander,” set up at Summit, as well as a new iteration of “Buck Rogers
