Lainey Interviews Pepperony Porn! But why can’t it be Iron Pepper? After all, she wears the suit now, and don’t yell at me about spoilers because that scene is in the trailer. I saw Iron Man 3 in a screening room on the Disney lot on Saturday which ended up being cooler By Lainey • Apr 22, 2013 03:46 pm
Robert Downey-Jr BUT WHERE’S GWYNETH??? I’ve been refreshing the photo agencies obsessively for the last hour checking for pictures of Gwyneth Paltrow at the London premiere of Iron Man 3 tonight and so far... nothing.

BFFs RDJ & his Work Wife in Paris There’s a lot to shout about today, Justin Bieber. And we will. But maybe we shouldn’t shout so early? Let’s begin today with love. My two loves: Gwyneth Paltrow and Robert Downey Jr, who were in Paris this weekend promoting Iron Man 3. As you can see, By Lainey • Apr 15, 2013 09:37 am

Quiveration RDJ’s Korean Birthday It’s Robert Downey Jr’s birthday today. He’s 48. And he’s celebrating in Seoul promoting Iron Man 3. I wonder if he’d be willing to fly over to Pyongyang and talk some sense into that child running the North who thinks that life is a video By Lainey • Apr 04, 2013 02:02 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Iron Man 3: I want to go there Two more months till Iron Man 3. It’s already my favorite movie of the year, to borrow Lainey’s line. And now, with two months to go, Marvel has released the final trailer, giving us our best look yet at the next phase in Marvel’s master plan. How By Sarah • Mar 05, 2013 02:00 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews This time they mean business Despite continued assurances that Iron Man 3 won’t be all that dark, every new round of promotional imagery points toward a more serious, edgier tone than we’ve seen from Tony Stark & Co. to date. Poor Lainey is going to have a heart attack, thinking something bad happens By Sarah • Feb 28, 2013 11:16 am
Oscars 2013 The Avengers assemble for the Oscars The Academy sent out a press release this morning announcing that the cast of The Avengers—RDJ, Mark Ruffalo, Jeremy Renner, Chris Evans and Samuel L.

Style Best Globes Jacket: Robert Downey Jr You have to have a certain personality for this jacket. Ben Affleck could not have pulled off this jacket. Definitely not Leonardo DiCaprio. Ryan Gosling? You know what? Yeah, he probably could. And definitely, definitely RDJ. Love the colour, love the texture, love the length, love the bowtie, love it By Lainey • Jan 14, 2013 04:42 pm
BFFs RDJ shills for Naomi Watts Naomi Watts, now confirmed as an Oscar nominee for Best Actress, has been quietly campaigning for The Impossible, and it’s paid off by landing her the trifecta—SAG, Golden Globe and Oscar nominations. So can she win? As Lainey pointed out, Watts has an advantage with her peers—they By Sarah • Jan 10, 2013 12:11 pm
BFFs RDJ to present to Jodie When the Hollywood Foreign Press Association announced last month that Jodie Foster would receive the Cecil B DeMille award at the Golden Globes this year, I wrote that it would be amazingly awkward, though perhaps unlikely, that it would be Mel Gibson to present it to her.

Movie Reviews and Previews The Long Dark Tea Time of Tony Stark’s Soul Lainey is already panicking about Iron Man 3, convinced from the new trailer that Pepper Potts will die and Tony Stark will be SO SAD and that this will be a super depressing superhero movie. This is the reason I’ve been excited for Extremis since it was confirmed at By Sarah • Oct 23, 2012 11:05 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Iron Man 3: Extremis is coming And you should be ready for it. We’ll save the nerd breakdown (nerd down?) for tomorrow when the first full trailer for Iron Man 3 is released, but today we’ve got a seventeen second teaser that, though brief, clearly says, YES, SH*T JUST GOT REAL. It also By Sarah • Oct 22, 2012 01:04 pm
Media Manipulation Jake Gyllenhaal could take a cue from Chris Evans That is a truly bizarre sentence to write. The last time Jake G had a movie in theaters was nearly eighteen months ago, last spring’s Source Code. Since then, he’s kept a relatively low profile as he recalibrates after his Movie Star dreams died a slow, inexorable death By Sarah • Aug 16, 2012 01:23 pm
Amazingness Comic Con becomes the Stark Expo THIS. This is why Robert Downey Jr. is always and forever THE BEST. And this is why Comic Con is so fun.
