*Watching the trailer*

I think I'm a little turned on.

*After seeing War Machine and even moaning a little*

Scratch that, I'm definitely turned on.



:D

:D

This just made my day...or week.

Thanks!!

What are the songs used in here? Beside Iron man and Back in Black.

Okay, Pepper kissing the armor? That's Shoot to Thrill - AC/DC

[bourne-parker.livejournal.com]

Thanks that's the one I really wanted. I'm glad someone knows their AC/DC.

[dieewigenacht.livejournal.com]

Well, it's AC/DC.

OMG this looks awesome. It kind of looks like Marvel is smushing storylines, but I'll live with it if they do it well. And I was prepared to headdesk at the inevitable Tony/Pepper, but I kind of like the way they're playing it. I'll just have to console myself with the Happy = Director = Inevitable Happy/Pepper Hookup thing I've heard about.

Forget the holidays. Is it May yet?

[tonks07.livejournal.com]

If there is Happy/Pepper I will be so excited! I love the director as Happy, he looks great.

[tsukinofaerii.livejournal.com]

He does! I just hope that everything falls together. (crosses fingers)

Happy/Pepper in the movies would make my day like almost nothing else (unless they have Clint show up as the Black Widow's boy toy, which would be even more awesome).

[tsukinofaerii.livejournal.com]

What are they doing with the Black Widow's storyline, does anyone know? There's a very pretty shot of her looking vaguely Spy-y, and I heard that she's Tony's new PA (thus creating tension, romantic shenanigans and Pepper/Tony/Natasha fics), but that seems to be it...

[elspethdixon.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure. If they follow the original 616 storyline, she's not actually a love interest for Tony -- she's a sexy spy who takes advantage of Tony's innate weakness for hot people to get a tour of his factory and spy on his tech (there's some stuff with the first and second Crimson Dynamo involved, too), and one of the bad guys.

I suspect they're going to play up the Tony/Natasha vibes, borrowing from Ultimates, where they actually were long-term lovers, and make her some kind of double agent who ends up on the side of the good guys (compressing her comics origin story where it takes several storylines before she defects). Or make her a SHIELD agent.

tension, romantic shenanigans and Pepper/Tony/Natasha fics

Could we remove Tony from the equation and just have Pepper/Natasha? Possibly where Natasha breaks into the SI office to steal data or do someting Mission Impossible-y, only Pepper's there working late, and then there's gratuitous porn?

Tony can be out flying in his armor with Rhodey in the meantime, possibly while the camera lingers lovingly on every detail of the War Machine armor. Or Steve can randomly get defrosted and show up.

[tsukinofaerii.livejournal.com]

I could definitely buy into that storyline, but I have a secret terror that Natasha is going to show up as a SHIELD agent "to protect Tony" or some BS and then proceed to be A Designated Love Interest until they forget about her and get back to blowing things up.

Oh, you know Tony has to be in the equation, even if it's only by finding the security tapes later and putting them into his collection. :D But the porn totally isn't gratuitous. Natasha is distracting her so she can leave an exhausted but cheerful Pepper in Tony's office and then slip off with the Technological Doohickey Of the Week. It's a tried and true technique. She probably didn't count on the fact that Pepper works for Tony, and is too smart to be duped that way. There may be handcuffs involved.

"Why do you have these in Stark's desk?"
"It's Tony. Don't ask."

I like Steve randomly being defrosted. They need to get moving on that, chop chop. They haven't even cast him yet!

[elspethdixon.livejournal.com]

They haven't even cast him yet!

I am eagerly waiting for hours of delicious, delicious glee at fanboys' expense when they do. Watching presumably straight guys fight over which actor is hot enough and perfect enough and glorious enough to embody Captain America's manly perfection is the best free entertainment imdb's discussion pages have ever provided.

[tsukinofaerii.livejournal.com]

I believe Velithya (http://community.livejournal.com/cap_ironman/62937.html) put it best. Who wouldn't go for Captain America?

I think it's just that Steve is so iconic. With other characters, you can fudge it. So Tony's a little old, and his eyes are the wrong color. The attitude and acting let RDJ nail him. But with Steve, nothing will do but perfection.

[elspethdixon.livejournal.com]

People have flounced from the imdb board over the "who is perfect enough to be Cap" fight. They've declared that they will "leave comics fandom forever!" if a given actor does or doesn't play him. They've trolled other posters by linking to faked news articles that claim that the actor of their choice used to act in gay porn. It's glorious.

[tsukinofaerii.livejournal.com]

Wait. I'm confused. I thought that having acted in gay porn could only make Cap!Actor even better.The imdb board people are a strange and confusing bunch. (I am heading over there to search for the joy as we speak. Such wank needs to be witnessed.)

FAERII HOW WILL I SURVIVE

OH GOD-

D: (hugs tight)

[honorableshadow.livejournal.com]

If this was facebook, I'd "like" this. 8DDDD

[geuna.livejournal.com]

Oh man, sheer awesome! XD I'm so excited now! I actually kinda like the Tony/Pepper fit. It made me think that Tony's thinking "She's kissing my armor, that's... kind of really hot..."

[otherhazards.livejournal.com]

Oh, he is.

[otherhazards.livejournal.com]

I see WIN.
I also see a hot, somewhat metro superhero with a literally -glowing- upside-down triangle displayed on his chest.
...I hadn't even dared to HOPE they'd go there... (G)
