IRON MAN 2 Not “Demon in a Bottle”

Marvel studios president Kevin Feige told CHUD “that those expecting [Iron Man 2 to be] a  ‘Demon in a Bottle’ storyline will be disappointed.”

Feige was referring to the critically acclaimed story “Demon in a Bottle” from the Iron Man comic book which examined Tony Stark/Iron Man’s descent into alcoholism and eventual recovery.  The story ran over nine issues in 1979.

Feige went on to say, “”About midway through the film [Tony Stark] hits rock bottom. Rock bottom is not in an alley way with alcohol alongside a dumpster.”  This somewhat counters original rumors about the film.  And may disappoint fans who wished to see a cinematic version of one of superhero comics’ landmark stories.  But, with the first Iron Man movie a favorite with adults and children alike, it’s probably a wise move to sidestep such adult storytelling.

NOT QUITE HOLLYWOOD Opens in Limited Release

Not Quite Hollywood — the comprehensive documentary about Australian exploitation cinema of the sixties, seventies and eighties — which has already taken Australia and the festival crowd by storm will be opening in limited release this week in the U.S..

Here’s the trailer to whet your appetite.  Note to sensitive viewers, this trailer is NOT approved for all audiences.  It features nudity, violence, and crude language:
