It's safe to say that Shane Black is on a roll of late. In only his second directorial outing, Black was handed the keys to the Iron Man franchise. …

“Do you want an empty life, or a meaningful death?”

Not only has IRON MAN 3 already become this year’s biggest movie, but it also has polarized and divided audiences. In the latest chapter of the ongoing Tony Stark saga, we find Tony having difficulty coping with the aftermath of the cataclysmic events that transpired in New…

Less than a month. We are less than a month away from the release of Shane Black's 'Iron Man 3,' and thereby the commencement of Marvel's Phase 2. We've seen a lot of great marketing material thus far from the third Iron Man adventure, and this latest international poster is no exception. It actually…

Honestly the only thing more exciting to me than the prospect of seeing 'Iron Man 3' is seeing 'Iron Man 3' in IMAX. Everything we've seen from Shane Black's upcoming superhero sequel suggests that it will look absolutely stunning in the enormous-screen format. To wit, the studio has released this poster…

Shane Black's 'Iron Man 3' didn't need an incredible final trailer to spark my interest in the movie. It didn't need to deliver a boatload of badass new footage, and it certainly didn't need to feature a finale that had my jaw lying on the keyboard. It didn't need to do any of these things, but I'll be dipped in palladium…

Do I really have to explain why I'm excited for Shane Black's 'Iron Man 3?' Isn't it pretty self-evident in the phrase "Shane Black's 'Iron Man 3?'" Tomorrow, a brand new trailer for the movie is supposed to land online, but in the meantime, a fan spotted this great new poster in a movie theater and snapped a…

Shane Black's 'Iron Man 3' will not only kick off the 2013 summer superhero season, but it is also the first post-…

As we move closer to May, which is more or less the start of the summer blockbuster season, more and more 'Iron Man 3' marketing paraphernalia is cropping up. This new character poster for Shane Black's installment of the Iron Man franchise isn't just cool on its own, it also raises some interesting…

One of the coolest images from 'Iron Man 3,' in my opinion, was the first set photo of the Patriot Armor. I've been really looking forward to seeing that suit in action, piloted of course by James "Rhodey" Rhodes (Don Cheadle). Today, a new character poster for …

The thing I love about Shane Black is that almost every hero he has ever written has been, while admittedly funny, flawed and at the end of their rope. Riggs (Mel Gibson) from 'Lethal Weapon' is a great example of this.…

I hadn't heard of the upcoming film 'Upstream Color,' and I'd hazard many of you hadn't either. However, what instantly had me interested to watch the movie's first trailer was the fact that it is written and directed by Shane Carruth. If that name seems vaguely familiar, it's because Carruth also wrote and directed the fantastic…

On this glorious Friday, we thought we'd give you a little bonus to send you off into your weekend. We have for you not one, not two, but three new images each from a different 2013 superhero blockbuster. First, Hugh Jackman strikes an angry pose in James Mangold's …

With all the edited-together footage in the trailers, it can be easy to forget that Shane Black's 'Iron Man 3' is still filming. It's entering its last phase, but that phase does include a goodly amount of shooting in Beijing. The below photos come directly from the Chinese set. I think my favorite shot is of all the…

The first Phase 2 movie that we'll see next year is Shane Black's 'Iron Man 3,' and there is no small amount of anticipation there. When the first trailer hit the web not so long ago, it was clear we were in for a decidedly darker Iron Man story. Now a trailer from Japan has hit the web, which offers…

Just because no other Avengers will appear in Shane Black's 'Iron Man 3,' doesn't mean that Tony will have to go it all alone. Col. James "Rhodey" Rhodes will be fighting by his side again, though this time around his War Machine armor is getting a…

We're still six months away from the release of Shane Black's 'Iron Man 3,' but I already feel like we know quite a bit about it. We…

I was already excited by the prospect of a Shane Black directed 'Iron Man 3,' but after seeing the first trailer recently, the movie has rocketed its way up my list of most anticipated films of 2013. In particular, I am really interested to see how his first cinematic outing with The Avengers has changed…

The wait is over, the first trailer for Shane Black's 'Iron Man 3' has arrived. I gotta say, it was well-worth the wait. The trailer is bold, epic, and gloriously cinematic while at the same time seemingly more visceral and bleak than the first two films. It's clear Tony Stark is in for a grueling…

Over the weekend, a teaser teaser was released to announce that the first trailer for 'Iron Man 3' will hit tomorrow. It was so short and uneventful that it barely registered as marketing, but that does not mean we aren't counting down the hours until we can officially close the book on Monday and see that trailer. In the meantime, the a brand new poster for the film has been released as well as several…

We are understandably excited for Marvel's Phase 2. I mean come on, did you see 'The Avengers?!' The first movie due up in the post-'Avengers' slate is Shane Black's 'Iron Man 3.'We've seen some fuzzy and otherwise…
