New Iron Man Trailer to Debut During Lost

If you're one of the few who still isn't watching Lost, perhaps this will get you to tune in: A new trailer for Iron Man will debut during this Thursday's episode (9 pm/ET, ABC).

In case you haven't been keeping score, Iron Man is the latest comic book movie from Marvel Comics (Spiderman, the X-Men franchise) and stars Robert Downey Jr. as billionaire industrialist Tony Stark and his technologically armored superhero alter ego. Jeff Bridges plays Iron Man's nemesis Obadiah Stane/Iron Monger, and Gwyneth Paltrow and Terrence Howard also star in the Jon Favreau-directed flick.

This newest trailer follows a recent Super Bowl spot and the original teaser trailer as part of a $50 million marketing campaign leading up to the movie's May 2 release. — Adam Bryant

My sons cannot wait for this movie. Such superhero nuts! I just hope it's not too intense for them. As it is, X-Men 3 taught them at least two "bad words," which I'm still hearing about from the missus. I also told them a Hulk movie is coming, as is (what I call) "Batman 6" (which I am pretty sure will be too scary for a 5-year-old).

Matt - Being a movie nut, I've been reading up on a lot of movies. Dark Knight will definitely be too intense for your kids, since I hear Ledger's Joker is very much the opposite of Nickolson's campy fun Joker. As for Hulk, I know they are shooting more for the comic book feel, but if your kids saw the first one, then it'll probably be on par for intensity for this one.

And Iron Man...I don't know how intense it is. From what I hear there are a lot of war elements in it (Stark being a weapon supplier to the military), possible torture, and a lot of battles. So, that's up to you parents to decide if your kids should see it.

I can't wait for this one. From what little I know about it we can expect one from fellow comic fan Favreau that will not be a disappointment to those of us who grew up with the comic. And with two of our best actors-Downey and Howard- in it how bad could it be?

I am looking forward to seeing the new Iron Man movie. I think Robert Downey, Jr. is so sexy as Tony Stark.
