Mike Krumblotz, Epilogue on Iron Man
Iron Man may be B-list, but folks hungry for a super hero, couldn't care less. The first big flick of the summer took in over $100 million in its opening weekend. Obviously a lot of folks watched Robert Downey Jr. kick butt as the metallic maniac, but only those who stayed past the credits got the whole story. You see, after the credits roll and audiences learn who the "best boy" was, viewers are treated to an even bigger surprise. Avert your gaze if you don't want to know. Still here? OK, so after the credits, Colonel Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) asks our iron hero if he thinks he's the only superhero (a rhetorical question, we assume). Fury then says he needs to talk to Iron Man about "the Avenger Initiative."
After word of the bonus scene started to spread, searches surged on Mr. Jackson and his character, Nick Fury. Also spiking were lookups on "marvel avengers," "who are the avengers" and "avengers roster."
Those who wonder how the Avengers would stack up against other comic book crews typed in "avengers vs. x-men" and "avengers vs. fantastic four." Members including Thor, Captain America, and Ant-Man also posted impressive gains. And though it's already a foregone conclusion, lookups on "iron man 2" soared into the thousands. Hopefully fans won't have long to wait.
Let me know what you think or know about Iron Man II?
