IRON MAN 2 WILL BE THE MOST METAL MOVIE OF THE YEAR… LITERALLY

 Monday, March 8th, 2010 at 4:00pm by

If you weren’t already excited for Iron Man 2, this oughta do the trick: our friends at Metal Insider report that Tom Morello has revealed via Twitter that none other than Tom Morello is working on the score for the film in conjunction with composer John Debney (who also did the music for director Jon Favreau’s Elf, Sin City, and a whole lotta other crap). They replace Ramin Djawadi, whose score for the original Iron Man was one of the least memorable things about that flick. (MI also points out that Morello played guitar on Djawadi’s score, and had a cameo as one of the terrorists Tony Stark offs in the cave scene. There’s something kinda ironic about that, given Morello’s political views, and the fact that the portrayal of said terrorists was cartoonish to be the point of being borderline racist, but I guess that’s a different conversation for a different time.)

This is in addition to the already-announced utilization of AC/DC on the IM2 soundtrack, as well as Lamb of God’s contribution of a new song to the movie tie-in video game. If there’s gonna be a more metal-friendly mainstream movie this year, I don’t know what it is.

Here’s the new trailer for Iron Man 2, which makes it look like it’s gonna kick all kinds of ass:

    Stark better not be a German name. If so I won’t be seeing it!!

    • wew

      Actually it is.Stark means powerfull

  • Brian \m/(-_-)\m/

    i want one of those suitcases

  • DemonicLemming

    Iron Man was probably one of the best action flicks to come out in quite a while, at least based on a comic book. Can’t wait to see the second one. Downey Jr. plays the part perfectly, and Scarlett Johansson (in black latex, no less) is going to make it even more interesting (although that’s more for her tits, since she’s not exactly a great actress).

    Also, I have no problems with the terrorists being portrayed as cave-dwelling worthless pieces of shit because, hey, that’s what they are. I’m glad they didn’t pull the PC strings there and make the bad guys more “commercially acceptable” like they did with Sum of All Fears.

    • TomB

      +1 to everything this guy just said.

  • MSalonen

    Mickey Rourke is the shit.

  • M.

    Am I the only one who didn’t like Ironman?

    • Alex_P

      Nope.

    • Hammer_Smashed_Hurtt

      No sir you are not.

  • soy el niño más bonito

    • MSalonen

      • Brian \m/(-_-)\m/

        AND scarlett johansson as Sexy!
        (yes i know he sead it before, i just think it bears repeating)

  • Gabe

    Yes, because there’s nothing more metal than Tom “Street Sweeper Social Club” Morello.

  • Spanky

    This movie is going to be great

    who else checked out John Debney’s IMDB page? WOW that’s a lot of shitty, shitty movies…

  • Brian

    good to see Tom Morello still sticking it to the man. Nothing more corporate than this….I didnt think it could be worse then RATM offering that track for the Godzilla sdtrk in their prime…

    cant all of the good bands die before 30 so they don’t have to shit like this to pay their mortgage?

    • MSalonen

      I guess it gets exhausting being angry at the state of the world all the time.

      Most people, as they age and hopefully mature, realize that there’s nothing wrong with taking it easy and having fun once and a while.

  • Goolash

    Does it seem like that Mickey Rourke is playing the same character as Tim Robbins in The Pick of Destiny?

  • Kuranes

    Oh hells yes.

  • http://www.myspace.com/thestarsthrewdowntheirspears Tim

    Jonah Hex?

    • Douchebag

      MASTODOOOOON!

  • Ben

    How the fuck was the portrayal of the terrorists borderline racist? The movie showed them attacking innocent civilians that were from the same country.

    • DemonicLemming

      Which, surprisingly enough, they actually do in real life….I concur, I don’t see how it was “borderline racist” to show a bunch of fucking worthless pieces of shit Middle Eastern terrorists being, well, what they actually are. Should they have been Nazis instead, since evidently it’s ok to demonize white Europeans but not Middle Eastern terrorists?

      • MSalonen

        Besides, it’s fucking Iron Man, not the goddamned Hurt Locker.

  • Hammer_Smashed_Hurtt

    Fuck this Movie, go rent ‘Laid to Rest’ or watch ‘ The Collector’ when it comes out.

    Or at very least go see the New Elm Street.

    Again Fuck Iron Man

    • Dirtman73

      You had me up until the “go see the New Elm Street” line.

      Why the fuck would I want to see that?

      • Hammer_Smashed_Hurtt

        Because its probably gonna be better than Iron Man2.

        • Dan

          Oh yeah cuz we ALL know how great horror remakes are…

          • The Overmatt

            Or even horror movies in general after the 80s…

  • Hammer_Smashed_Hurtt

    Fuck this Movie

    Go rent ‘ Laid to Rest’ or watch ‘ The collector’ when it comes out

    At very least go see the New Elm Street.

    Again, fuck this movie.

  • Hammer_Smashed_Hurtt

    Fuck this Movie

    Go rent ‘ Laid to Rest’ or watch ‘ The collector’ when it comes out

    At very least go see the New Elm Street.

    Again, fuck this movie.

    • Octillus

      YEAH METAL GORE GRIMNES GRAAAAH WE DON’T HAVE FUN. GRRR DISMEMBERMENTS ONLY PLZ!

      Fuck you. This isn’t high brow cinema, but at least it was fun pop cinema, which is more than can be said for about any blockbuster that wasn’t the Dark Knight, and even that took itself too seriously.

  • Hammer_Smashed_Hurtt

    Fuck this Movie

    Go rent ‘ Laid to Rest’ or watch ‘ The collector’ when it comes out

    At very least go see the New Elm Street.

    Again, fuck this movie.

    • cougar party

      I’m sorry. Could you repeat that?

  • Colin

    Literally? Really? The movie is going to be made of metal?

  • Hammer_Smashed_Hurtt

    Sorry, computer fucked up.

    Go see Collector.

  • KilledByDeath

    Metal exoskeletons and Sabbath in one place… I’ll come all over the cinema screen, I’m sure.

  • Hammer_Smashed_Hurtt

    The only thing i can imagine worse than sitting through this is being strapped down and forcedc to watch Spiderman 1, 2 & 3 on repeat for a day, with my only reprieve being to watch Twilight.

    I would literally swallow my tongue.

  • Igottawocket

    wow. that new preview made it look way better, the old one made it look like shit.

  • DustintheWind

    Note to Metalsucks…

    Less nsfw pics of penises

    More nsfw pics of Scarlett Johannsen

  • OkamiO

    Iron Man rocks, it manages not to take itself too seriously while taking the source material very seriously. Looks like Favreau and RDJ did a great job again.

  • LoomeyTunes

    I always knew that was Tom in Iron Man, but I never saw his name in the credits and my Girl told me to stop smoking so much green. Now I can tell her “ha ha” whos the pot head now thanks to Metal Suck!. And Mickey is going to be a another animal in that movie, like back in the 80/90′s. About time some big budget movie thats seems goods (last action hero (sucked ass);and some movie about machines taking over are the only none “horror” movies) that uses Metal in a soundtrack since before most of the people reading this where out of dipars. Whats more metal then that? Even Ozzy said “I ammmm Irrooon Mannnnn”

  • UH

    Iron man sucked, too much snarky comebacks and fancy gizmos to show his wealth; not enough action to deem it an ACTION movie. This will probably be more of the same.
