Does Iron Man Dream of Electric Sheep? . . . Or, Iron Man 3 Trailer

The first trailer for Iron Man 3 was released a few days ago.  It looks like the Iron Man platform has finally been weaponized, Tony Stark's under the knife to finally remove those pesky bits of shrapnel, and he's fretting over the carnage wrought in New York during the Avengers movie.  With all that on his plate, how can things get more tense? How about another terrorist leader with murky vocals threatening everyone he loves? 

Sound familiar?  If so, try not to think of Nolan's failure to properly dub Bane as any reason to think Marvel will make the same mistakes.  Lack of production oversight isn't really the problem at Marvel, since they've displayed a remarkable persistence of vision throughout the Iron Man franchise, and the burgeoning Thor, Hulk, and Captain America franchises.  All that being said, poor character development in Dark Knight Rises certainly was the bane of my movie-going experience (I crack myself up), but I'm looking forward to the gloss and shine of a Marvel production with Iron Man 3. 

Did you like Bane?  Hate him?  Just couldn't understand him?  Let me hear what you think in the comments.

    That was kind of a depressing trailer. I sense the finality of the story here. This being the 3rd and final installment of the Iron Man franchise. Although I assume Stark will be keeping up his appearances in the Avengers.

    It'll be interesting to see what they do. But yeah, looks like the end if the franchise. I get the feeling like Robert Downing jr. might be ready for something new.
