Who's excited about Iron Man? We are, we are! And we know you, like us, are counting the days -- nay, the hours -- until May 2, when Iron Man hits the big screen. In the meantime, though, we have this little behind-the-scenes tidbit from Moviefone's recent Unscripted interview with the Iron Man himself, Robert Downey, Jr., Jon Favreau and Terrence Howard, interviewing each other with your questions.
The clip above (which is not included in the full interview over on Moviefone) is short, but funny -- how can you not like a video that includes Robert Downey, Jr. talking in a Jersey accent and saying, "What?! You feeling froggy, bitch? Jump!" Oh, yeah. If only I'd been there myself for this, perhaps Downey, Jr. would finally recognize his long unrequited love for me. Oh, wait, I'm the one who's had a crush on him forever ... ah, well.
Iron Man, in case you've been sleeping under a rock, is about Tony Stark, a weapons industrialist who is forced to build himself a cool suit after a life-threatening accident, and then decides to go all superhero, battling evil and looking cool as hell. In the Unscripted interview, using a variety of questionable accents, Downey, Jr., Howard and Favreau address reader questions including the dismemberment of action figures and whether they're meant to be put into orifices, Favreau's approach to making a superhero movie, and Downey, Jr.'s crotch -- and that's just in the first of the four clips.
Pop on over to Moviefone to see the full Unscripted Iron Man madness, it's well worth checking out. There are four clips -- the first is the full interview, which runs just under 10 minutes, and for added fun, there are also three shorter bonus clips.
1. I'm so gay for Downey Jr! ^_^ BTW, I'm a girl.
