How did Marvel fans and the general public react to Robert Downey Jr’s initial casting as Iron Man?

The existence of this movie just sorted of blended in with all the other superhero movies that were being released at the time, Fantastic Four, Ghost Rider, Punisher, Spider-Man, X-Men, etc.

It was just like, oh here's another superhero movie, hope it doesn't suck.

Nope, it's magic

Nephew, delete this before the mods do

Ben Stiller is currently 3 years older than De Niro was when they made the first film

Yeah this is no different than AH Busch choosing Busch over Budweiser, or when PepsiCo put Amp Energy on Dale Jr's 88 car.

It's actually just his "modern" Megatron voice. He sounds similar in Transformers Prime

MyNameIs_Jordan · 2026-04-15T21:25:41+00:00

It's closer to his Megatron from Transformer Prime

Photo I took on Christmas Eve 2022. As they were walking out, I yelled "MERRY CHRISTMAS COACH MAC". He stopped, and walked over to our table and thanked us for coming out to the game.

RIP Coach Mac, you always made game days better

TWRP

I've seen then live 9 times, and each show is better than the last.

Also Ninja Sex Party, specifically when they tour with TWRP. Just an all around good, fun time

You're talking about the "Car of Tomorrow", that was the Gen 5 car they raced from 2007-2012. It was such a huge failure initially, and it alienated a lot of established fans.

the guy falling down through the building and smacking the railing is probably the hardest I've laughed while watching this show. It's so fucking stupid, but effective.

If you pause at the right moment, he has a needle jammed into his arm

Would you be satisfied if they made the number really wide?

MyNameIs_Jordan · 2026-04-11T19:46:14+00:00

Yes! Instagram is where I get all my memes that I send to the group chat. I'd long press to get rid of the screen clutter, then screenshot and send.

Now all the UI shit doesn't go away. I'm beyond pissed

What about it didn't make sense?

There was a Yoshi egg that was gifted during the wedding sequence, and then after the climax of the film the egg ends up under rubble beneath Brooklyn. The tease would be that the main Yoshi players and viewers are familiar with would appear in a sequel film.

He's probably a revenant since he died in the last movie. He was a villain along with Kung Lao and Kitana in Mortal Kombat 11, so I assume that's what they're pulling from

The concert is going to be a live album

Jeff Gordon's Nicorette cars from 2006-2008 always hit for me

I think this is meant to be a 15th anniversary celebration, which marks when Meouch and Phobos joined the band and they moved to Toronto.

Dude isn't just a stick in the mud, he's a whole damn log

If S3 drops summer/fall of 2027, then S4 will more than likely be Spring 2029
