Some Iron Man and Thor news...  
Kat Dennings is back for Thor 2! WOO! (Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] redbrunja for the heads-up. Yay flist!)

Also, someone over at AICN got a look at the Iron Man 3 trailer and has a description. Velly interesting. It's all under the cut for those that want to avoid anything of a spoilerish nature.

I was most intrigued by this:

It also falls in line with the type of Iron Man movie that Shane Black has previously stated he intends to make: one that functions more like a grounded espionage thriller than a whimsical superhero film. Finally, the tone set in that Iron Man 3 trailer also falls in line with what we here at Screen Rant have speculated about at great length: that films like IM3 and Captain America 2 will present more grounded, real-world stories (and grittier tones), in order to balance out the wild sci-fi aspects of upcoming “Marvel Cosmic” movies like Thor 2 and Guardians of the Galaxy.


That sounds to me like a perfect opportunity to add some SHIELD folks into the mix. Still waiting on any casting confirmation for Scarlett or Renner in Cap 2 though. I'm glad that the execs are at least thinking this through enough to realize "Hey, we've got a lot of wacky space stuff going on (plus Ant Man) with characters nobody cares about. Maybe we should also have a few storylines where shit actually gets real."

At least, until we get our Black Widow movie.

Have I mentioned lately that I love everyone in this bar? 'Cause I do. Happy Wednesday, y'all.
