Od's Blood! Hath ILE no thread for anticipation of THOR 2: The Dark World? Verily?

I read a rumor that Rockwell's coming back. I hope that it's so.

Hammer Industries stuff shows about a lot on the Netflix Marvel shows -- among other things, they make the "Judas bullets" that are capable of penetrating Luke Cage's skin. Would love to see him pop up on one of those shows, but getting back into the MCU would be even better.

i dunno if he could carry off the devil-may-care lightness (and improvisational skill) that downey brought to the role

fwiw his track record of coming up with a lot of the better character beats on Justified suggest otherwise, but I'm a stan

don't get me wrong, i think he's great too! i'm glad we got deadwood and justified but i've always been a bit baffled that he wasn't a bigger movie star

Olyphant is more a Wolverine type imo (hint hint, Disney/Fox).

he's a Gambit if there ever was one

Too bad there'll never be an American Flagg movie, since he pretty much nailed Reuben by playing Raylan.

Ah well, I'm sure he'll relish his four lines in the new Tarantino.

I think Olyphant in devil-may-care mode is A+ but I think his Tony Stark would be necessarily extremely different. He has an old school movie star charisma that was finally deployed to perfection in Justified, it’s kind of shameful it took that long.

Eventually they will have to recast everyone- a practice I’m not opposed to at all, as it fits the source material perfectly.

btw i don't really think Iron Man 2 is a completely terrible film, but it seems to be a failed attempt at recapturing a bit of what made the first one good and generally speaking there's not much interesting about Mickey Rourke's character despite at the Methoding he was doing, and it was probably the worst bit of casting in the series that i've seen thus far. And i think it was a film that showed a very bad path the series could have taken, one that was more unadventurous and coasting on goodwill. Favreau ran out of ideas.
