iron man: audi r8; iron man game; boom blox

[amezri]

So.. a few of us who've been to see Iron Man are all, "Tony Stark drives an Audi R8? Huh?" because we're sort of.. "Audi.. ew..."

But I forgot about Top Gear reviewing the R8. Clarkson really, really liked it. Even though he lost the drag race against the Porsche 911.

In gaming news, seijitataki showed me the demo for the Iron Man on the XBox. It's kinda shiny. I suck that those sort of games so I probably would just watch him play. But the rendering is really nice and he says it's one of the better superhero movie games. The Jarvis voice is pretty terrible, but the Stark voice is kinda passable. The lines make me laff.

Still... I think a better investment would be Boom Blox.

I don't know if the JARVIS voice in the game is Paul Bettany or not, but the Iron Man voice is DEFINITELY RDJ.
Drool some more. :p

PS - I didn't mind so much that Tony Stark drove an Audi, but what SLIGHTLY bugged me was that EVERYONE drove an Audi. I knew about the deal the company had to get a few cars into the movie but any car featured for a decent length of time (ie, the one that runs IM over during the fight in the streets) is an Audi.

JARVIS was definitely not Paul Bettany. It was just... it makes me laugh.

Huh. It is Downey, Jr. doing the voice. I totally had to look that up because during the demo, I really couldn't decide! XD Seriously... those one liners were borderline. Found this neat behind the scenes video.

Oh! And the Audis - I totally agree. That highway fight scene was too full of them.
