FILM: IRON MAN TRAILER: THE MOVIE?

*Originally Posted April 21, 2008*

A few issues ago, this column spoke how refreshing it is that Indiana Jones is not smothering the internet/tvs/theaters with trailers, clips, and promo pictures. To be clear, we're talking about official things, not items that fan sites report on. The biggest offender of oversaturation lately is the Iron Man movie. Every week they come out with a completely new trailer, poster, and TV ad. It's even news when we hear about an Iron Man cameo in the Hulk movie. There's nothing really wrong with what's going on with Iron Man. Superhero movies can be big moneymakers, but they also lend themselves to parody. I'm not talking about retard "Epic Movie" kind of parodies. I'm talking smart stuff, like this parody news story brought to you by the Onion.
