SORRY FOR PARTYING
I think Iron Man 3 could be good and fun since Shane Black has made more good movies than every director that's worked on a Marvel Studios movie combined.
He's directed one other movie.
It's entirely possible that was the joke he was aiming for.
Apparently Black helped write the Lethal Weapon movies, and is working on the IM3 screenplay, though, so that's something.
He wrote the first and got a character credit for the others; he hasn't done a whole lot is all I'm saying, whereas I can list out stuff from the Marvel directors. I'm sure Charlie would love that--he's seen so few movies and could use a reference guide.
Well, looking at Iron Man's old director, he only had two movies before taking over IM, one of which was Elf. It was all tv stuff before that, and his acting was minor/short-term recurring roles. I'm not saying that's bad, just that Black is basically stepping in with as much big-budget experience as Favreau had at the time. Looking at a couple other directors randomly (Johnston from Cap and Louis Letterier from the recent Hulk) there's not a lot of amazing filmwork there, either. Johnston has some nostalgic stuff like Honey, I Shrunk The Kids or The Rocketeer, but also junk like Pagemaster and Jurassic Park 3. Leterrier has the Transporter movies and (ugh) Clash of the Titans.
So, really, if CDS likes Kiss Kiss Bang Bang (I've not seen it) that much, I can see why he'd say that even if he was just going for a reaction.

Ah, I forgot about Branagh. I'm no Shakespeare nut but the stuff he did with it is pretty good.
You could also add the Marvel movies to those lists, plus Joss Whedon has Serenity and Cabin in the Woods.
If we're counting writing, I guess Shane Black has Monster Squad.With writing credits in Toy Storyand Aliens Resurrection
.
If I had a John Carter fail image, I'd use it.
How on earth do you not?
I say stupid stuff some times. Oops.

What come on? That was like the best line from Monster Squad.
I think he may have the reaction considering it's nards, not narts.
Also, don't forget, "My name...IS HORACE!"
"Werewolf's got Nerds!"

"Coyote boy's got Nords!"
C'mon, one of the good guys getting omnipotent and then giving it up is something any of the characters would have done... heck, even Doom did it once (although it might have been just in the cartoon).
Just got leaked that the Advanced Idea Mechanics are going to be in Iron Man 3, makes me wonder if Ben Kingsley is going to play the Scientist Supreme. Really, with each leaks it seems less and less likely The Mandarin is going to be involved.
There's been a shot shown of Stark with about 5-6 Iron Man armors in his workshop, too, some of which we've not seen in action. I don't remember much from the storyline, but maybe Armor Wars? It would bring Justin Hammer back in, along with the possibility of other various enemies.
Good.
I probably will need to duck out of this thread; I'd like to know what's in Iron Man 3 when I see it.

I prefer the similarly-themed Deadpool story-line where he prevents a godlike entity from forcing eternal happiness on the earth so that people will still have free will. He does it by kicking a possessed Captain America in the nards.
New rule: Every 2nd or 3rd post in this thread requires at least one reference to nards, or the kicking thereof.
I don't know, Cable and Deadpool was pretty good until x-events got in the way...

And now the Justice League movie is coming to us.
Remember back in 2008, when they were supposedly just about to start shooting? Yeah, I will believe a Justice League movie is happening when the first set photos show up.
