It’s been said numerous times here on the internet but some truths simply cannot be overstated: Robert Downey Jr. is awesome. He is so awesome that if Michael Bay had his own Robert Downey Jr. he would tell you it was awesome and then not blow it up because it was awesome enough on its own. But, as Jon Favreau is deftly proving with each new glimpse of his upcoming Iron Man flick, Robert Downey Jr. is even more awesome when he’s the one causing things to explode. The first trailer for Iron Man had its fair share of things that go boom but this new one doubles down to great effect. There are many more special effects shots on display here as well and they look spectacular, even the CG effects looking tangible and convincing. For the first time in a long time, it looks like a summer blockbuster action brouhaha might actually be good in addition to being bombastic.
