Kicking off this year’s Comic-Con at the Marvel booth, it was announced today that G4 will be picking up a slew of animated series based on some of the hottest Marvel properties!  Find out which ones, after the jump…

After seeing the heavy handed influence The Avengers had on this spring’s Iron Man 2 it looked like Tony Stark would be the anchor character to join all the new Marvel movies together. But director and producer Jon Favreau recently appeared on a local Los Angeles radio show to clear up any rumors regarding an Iron Man cameo in Captain America or Thor.

We thought we dodged a major bullet when Paramount and Marvel decided against releasing Iron Man 2 in 3D but we celebrated too soon. It turns out that the film was extremely close to being converted into the format but at the last minute the powers that be pulled the plug. According to a recent article in the LA Times, Marvel execs still have their eye on the 3D trend and plan on incorporating it into their future titles sooner than later.

Ever since Marvel began making live action films based on the Iron Man comic fans have been waiting for him to battle his arch nemesis on the big screen. We’re not talking about Iron Monger or Whiplash or Justin Hammer, we’re referring to The Mandarin. With two movies under his belt director Jon Favreau confirmed to MTV that he’s looking to bring the ten ringed villain to the forefront in the third installment, Iron Man 3.

Looks like Iron Man 2 may not have been able to shatter all the box office records in the world, but it did have one hell of a strong opening and shot past the debut of the first Iron Man, which kicked off with $98.6 million on the same weekend in 2008 – and it didn’t even need 3D to do so, booya! So far, it’s already the 4th highest grossing film of 2010 (and probably the best sans Inception action film of the summer), and if this film is anything like the last, it’s a grow-er not a show-er. The good word of mouth and millions of advertising should keep it in theaters and I would be willing to wager that by end of it’s run, it’s broken some top grossing record.

After two years of waiting the big day is finally here! Iron Man 2 was released in theaters everywhere this morning at 12:01 am. Over the past few weeks the film’s reviews have been rolling in and for the most part they’ve been mixed. From a critical standpoint I can understand the issues journalists have with the movie but as an Iron Man fan, I wasn’t disappointed. What do you think? Is Iron Man 2 better than Iron Man 1? Vote in our poll and let us know…

Not long ago we attended the press conference for Iron Man 2, which was basically Robert Downey Jr.’s chance to show off a unique hybrid between himself and Tony Stark. Not only did he dominate the stage, the questions, and everyone elses answers, but at one point he literally “held” the press conference together – but more on that below. In attendance along with Downey was the director Jon Favreau, writer Justin Theroux, producer Kevin Peige and cast members Gwyneth Paltrow, Scarlett Johansson, Mickey Rourke, and Don Cheadle (sadly no Sam Rockwell who absolutely rocked the film).

Here is a generic interview sent to us from Paramount which is far more than we got out of Scarlett Johansson at the press conference for Iron Man 2. Although who could blame her? Robert Downey Jr. was in full form and dominating the stage (and everyone else’s answers). The interview below is pretty standard but it does give you a bit of insight into her character and all the hard work she put into spinning her web/legs around peoples heads.

If you’re one of the millions of people living in Europe, Iron Man 2 is playing at a local theater near you. Unlike here in the U.S., the film opened on Wednesday in six international markets raking in $2.2 million from 960 venues and there’s even more where that came from.
