Iron Man 3 First Footage Review

In a spoiler-filled article in Empire Magazine, there is quite a bit of the Iron Man 3 plot that is revealed. Besides just  the spoilers though, Empire also offers up what looks to be the first review of more extensive footage of Iron Man 3 beyond just the two minute trailer that most of the world has seen.Apparently, Empire got to see around 15 minutes of footage from a screening room event led by Marvel Studios President of Production Kevin Feige. Here is what Empire had to say about the footage, “We won’t go into too much detail, but we will say that, while no studio is ever going to show 15 minutes of clunky material, as teasers go it’s a belter, filled with cracking dialogue, neat reversals and beautifully crisp, well-orchestrated action.”While Empire rightfully points out that studios are always going to put their best foot forward when showing an early look to the press, it is a good sign that they were able to put together 15 minutes of quality footage. There are a lot of  movies where finding 15 minutes of worthwhile footage would be a challenge.In addition to Empire’s first extended footage review, it looks like some people got an early look at a new Iron Man 3 trailer at an Oz early screening. The early feedback on the new trailer was also extremely positive.  Emily Leah tweeted, “I would pay to see the last 20 seconds again alone. So. Freaking. Good. Also Iron Patriot and Rhodie FTW.” And Adam Roth tweeted, “I keep thinking back to that amazing @Iron_Man 3 trailer… The last 5 seconds alone made me giddy for the film. Can’t wait to see it all!”Iron man 3 is scheduled to be released in theaters on May 3, 2013.
