Iron Man 2 Looks Awesome

I think we can all agree that Jon Favreau’s Iron Man was one of those rare adaptive triumphs and so it comes as no surprise that the trailer for Iron Man 2 looks similarly amazing. Mainly focused on Mickey Rourke’s inception as the fearsome villain Whiplash, we are also treated to welcome glimpses of Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow, Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury and Don Cheadle as War Machine. Whiplash’s electric weapons look particularly menacing, although a bit limiting, so it will be interesting to see how he develops as a threat to Stark. It all comes across as very dramatic anyway and thanks to a rather booming soundtrack, makes me tingle when I watch it.
