And the nerds at Comic Con rejoice. Wasn’t Ben Affleck supposed to play this role at some point or am I thinking of something else? At least it’ll be watchable now, if perhaps a bit arch and winkingly campy for a blockbuster. Although with Jon “Swingers” Favreau directing, I guess that was a fait accompli. Iron Man, Irony Man, whatever.

Sabbath on the soundtrack too near the end there, huh? They pulled out all the stops.
