He spent the entirety of one movie in "glasses" that covered a third of his face. They got away with it.

EDIT: And nobody cares about Cyclops or Superman Returns anyway.

Dont ask me to source because it was like a year ago. But I heard that they WERE planning an Avengers movie, and that little bit at the end of Iron Man was meant as a hint hint nudge nudge

That and the Super Soldier Serum stuff in Hulk.

anyway, everytime I see more of Iron-man movies I realize my comic nerd status is horribly weak, as I always think "Iron-man has his own villains? I thought he got all his from the Avengers" that's like, the only way I think of Iron-man, as the guy appearing in Spider-man comics from time to time.

All of Iron Man's villains (except the one from the first movie) are dated. They're either Yellow Perils (Mandarin) or Goddamn Communists (Red Dynamo) or Stane.

Pretty sure an actor can be in both a DC universe and Marvel movie, there's nothing preventing this in the era of the Ryan Reynolds Green Lantern/Deadpool mash-up. Thus Eckhart is every bit as eligible for a Captain America role as anyone else. It's not like he's very likely to repeat his DC universe role...

I don't know what you're talking about.

You also see Captain America's shield in Tony Stark's workshop in one of the scenes in Iron Man as well. Oh, and RDJ was in the bonus scene at the end of The Incredible Hulk too. From everything I've heard, they are making an Avengers movie. But I believe it's going to be: Iron Man, Cap and Thor. They aren't bringing in Spider-Man into it. And possibly The Hulk, but there are rumors that he might actually be the villain of the movie.

That's the problem with Iron Man in general: seeing as he started out as a SMASH DEM REDS character, it's always a challenge to keep him from getting dated without retcons or reboots.

To be fair, Captain America started out the same way. We're just nicer to the commies now.
