When I first heard about the Iron Man Live action movie, it was back in 2004. It was no shock to hear about it with Spiderman 2 being such a big movie and others that follow it. For a while I long with many others I'm sure though Tom Cruise was going to start in the lead role. For a while there it even seen that this movie was pure rumor and would never happen. That changed at Comic-Con 2006 when the Iron Man teaser poster was released.
The Plot: Tony Stark develops the three stages of the Iron Man armor, starting with "clunky, low-tech... diving bell armor" that he is forced to build in Afghanistan after being captured. Stark eventually updates the armor to a flying suit with the red and gold scheme and finally attains a "weapons platform" stage with the armor. Stark faces the villain The Mandarin.
