Wow those Ironettes... not... not the greatest choreographed dancers out there are they? Like "Comics Night" at the local strip club or something LOL And they like used the exact soundtrack from the movie too, the same cut up "Shoot to Thrill" and the Iron Man was too frakking funny. Him just walking up and posing and nodding his head like "Hey, I'm Iron Man and I'm totally ballin'. Look at all my hot chicks!"
Now that Old Man Logan trailer, that was pretty good. Y'know Clint Eastwood coulda made an interesting Wolverine.
