    Default Iron Man 2

    Well, for anyone watching the Comic Con coverage on G4... You may have seen Olivia Munn's announcement as far as to her role in Iron Man 2...

    I don't know if there's any sources available yet on the internet, but Olivia Munn is apparently going to be playing WarMachine in this upcoming movie. Odd choice...? It's hard to believe, but it was on Live TV, announced at a HUGE convention like Comic Con... and she was interviewing one of the higher ups in that movie (Can't remember the name unfortunately).

    Anyone else see this?

    Is that a different role from Don Cheadle's War Machine?
    Forgive me, I'm confused.

    The rest of the intarwebz seem to say she's joking.

    Oh good lord, I hope she is.

    She was joking, i think - she has a part in the movie apparently, but it's not as War Machine - a quick check of Google found that Comic Con also aired a clip that shows Col. Rhodes in the War Machine suit...

    While we're on the topic of marvel films, any word on when Thor is coming out? I've been hearing about the movie for I don't know how many years now.

    Mando Knight is correct. There is no man called Brian Blessed, but there is a man called BRIAN BLESSED, who seems to have the same restrictive volume control as a man named BARRY SCOTT.

    It's a pity BRIAN BLESSED is getting a bit old. Otherwise, I would have loved him as Thor himself. Just imagine,

    You know, it's weird he's been cast in this part, because for most of my childhood I was convinced he was secretly Odin.

    He is.

    Big bearded man with a great big booming voice.

    He's been in a lot of stuff. People here keep making references to his role as Prince Vultan in the 1980 Flash Gordon film.

    He was also Richard IV in the first Blackadder series with Rowan Atkinson, Lord Locksley (Robin Hood's dad) in the opening scene of that Kevin Costner film, and voiced Boss Nass in Star Wars.

    That is an awesome opening line for your Wiki bio:

    Brian Blessed (pronounced /ˈblɛsɪd/; born 9 October 1937, Yorkshire, UK) is an English actor, author and adventurer. He is known for his loud, booming voice and "hearty, king-sized portrayals".[1]

    Yup. He's one of those guys who looks exactly how you'd expect after hearing his voice (and sounds how he looks). He's also the voice of Tom Bombadil in my head when I'm reading LotR.

    I am shocked, shocked and appalled that there are that many people unaware of BRIAN BLESSED. It's like not being aware of hammy acting in general.

    What we need is to get a bad fantasy movie script and BRIAN BLESSED, William Shatner, and Jeremy Irons together as the cast.

    By the time those three are done chewing scenery Hollywood will have gone bankrupt from repair costs.
