Don't forget the United States Air Force. They received some of the first ABU (Airmen Battle Uniform) fabric to make uniforms for this movie. This is the first time you will see the ABU on the big screen.

man it's hard to find any show or movie without advertising in it now. Really though I'd rather it be there than the old way. the typical block any possible free advertising for another company and instead make up bogus companies.

supercow the old way was indiana jones, or original star wars, for a few dollars more, bob hope/sinatra/crosby, james dean, alfred hitchcock, real movies and real hollywood, the days when actors were actors and had to memorize lines...etc.

one of my favorite movies, the fifth element, also had some advertising in it but it was quite funny and there was a lot of revolutionary conceptual/production design going on. they fully built most of those sets and the computer work for 1997 was amazing.

i kind of feel that they will be doing the same thing with this movie, comical advertising. i'm ok with that because i know i'm going to see some of it with robert downey, plus i think the movie will be pretty damn cool regardless.

just wondering what comic superhero they are going to do next?

For some reason I think it's funny how they used the song Ironman by Black Sabbath. I don't know why, but I just do.

Although I sepose it is quite relevant.
