Synopsis: 
Paramount Pictures and Marvel Entertainment present the highly anticipated sequel to the blockbuster film based on the legendary Marvel Super Hero “Iron Man”, reuniting director Jon Favreau and Oscar nominee Robert Downey Jr. In “Iron Man 2”, the world is aware that billionaire inventor Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) is the armored Super Hero Iron Man. Under pressure from the government, the press and the public to share his technology with the military, Tony is unwilling to divulge the secrets behind the Iron Man armor because he fears the information will slip into the wrong hands. With Pepper Potts (Gwyneth Paltrow), and James “Rhodey” Rhodes (Don Cheadle) at his side, Tony forges new alliances and confronts powerful new forces.

My mind has a habit of comparing Jon Favreau movies to Kevin Smith movies.  In a lot of ways Clerks and Swingers have quite a bit in common for breakout movies.  Witty banter, no stars, quotable.  Then Favreau tried to really be a director and make movies that look really slick and professional while Smith sort of stuck to the witty banter routine.  I guess what I'm trying to say is that Iron Man 2 looks pretty badass.  Although Sam Rockwell usually does that to a movie.
