This makes me want to see what Iron Man looks like without CGI. Just an hour and a half of RDJ running around pointing his open palm at things.

Like even just a 30 minute clip with no effects at all with all the markers/stripped down costumes etc. Kinda would make you appreciate everything else, or if not at leas the pure acting ability.

There are a fair number of effects heavy movies have small snippets like that where the build the scene from raw footage to stand in effects to the final product.

If people can say a black spiderman would work, why can't he play any role? Have him play a character and never even make it a point that he is a dwarf. The man is a great actor and should not only be given parts that are for dwarfs. Make him the main villain. In a world where people can shoot lasers out of their face, physical size would not be a that important to establish he is a threat.

Is the Iron Patriot thing from the comics? I actually like the name over War Machine because it actually seems like a euphenism the military would use, like "Operation Iraqi Freedom."

When Norman Osborn became the director of SHIELD due to Secret Invasion he decided to create his own Avengers. He was Iron Patriot, (a mix of Iron Man and Cap and wearing Iron Man armor, Spider-man (Scorpion Venom), Hawkeye (Bullseye) Ms Marvel (Moonstone), and Wolverine (Wolverine's son, don't ask)

Wolverine's son is like the least surprising character ever, of course he'd have a kid he doesn't want anything to do with.

The funny thing about Peter Dinklage is that he's typecast as the guy who's cranky about the ways dwarfs are typecasted.

It's a small thing, but I love Peter Dinklage because he seems like he's the best celebrity dog owner solely by the virtue of the fact that there are a ton of pictures of him walking it and it's a no-bullshit breed instead of a showy purebred.![]() Good dog, good dog owner ![]()

So hey, to all of you (okay just Rhyno) freaking out about the fact that that article said that Dinklage is playing Puck, looks like they were wrong, and just assumed. Variety is reporting that he is going to play the film's main antagonist. gently caress yes.

There's a feature-length documentary, like nearly an hour and a half long, on the Star Wars: Episode III DVD about how much work went into a 60-second sequence during the climactic lightsaber battle. It's pretty awesome.

Yea! Dinklage is a great actor so there's no way he'll do bad no matter who they cast. My crazy theory: Mojo!

Days of Future Past didn't really have a main villain, but I guess closest would be Nimrod.

One of the cool things about Find Me Guilty was that Dinklage was Diesel's lawyer and apart from having a dude silently put a lectern up so that, presumably, Dinklage could look at the jury at eye level the fact that he's a dwarf is never mentioned even when the prosecutor if flipping his poo poo that all the mobsters are going to get off. It's based on a real story so I don't know if that guy was really a dwarf or if they just loved Dinklage and were like 'gently caress it it's my movie.'

Dinklage could also be voicing a predominantly CG character.

When I first read about Dinklage being cast I instantly thought 'Arcade', no idea why. He doesn't fit into Days of Future Past at all though, so now I'm left wondering if Dinklage will be Gambit?

January Jones was hands-down the worst part of First Class so I can only hope that Dinklage will be picking up the role of Emma Frost.

My favorite pet theory is Mr. Sinister, which I feel like Dinklage could knock out of the goddamn park.

It's kind of funny how the character progressed from the start. The Hood had a different theme to him compared to what Bendis turned him into and Ares' first story was about a Father and his Son and Ares making a life in the modern world. On the other hand I think Greg Pak is fantastic (I do believe that's his characterization in those panels).
