I think the reports are true since we know which comicseries this plot may be following, which involves nanobots. I agree that this version of Iron Man couldbe even better than the first Avengers movie, and I think they are building upto a second Avengers that will blow our socks off. I was inspired by seeing The Avengers in thetheater to see the previous Marvel movies, so I watched Iron Man and the secondI watched on Dish Online. A Dishco-worker told me it was free since I’m a Dish subscriber, so I was glad sinceI wasn’t planning to buy it right now.

If Bruce Campbell isn't playing M.O.D.O.K. I will hunt people down and kill them.
MODOK FTW!
Also if they ever reboot the FF franchise to do it better, I want the Mad Thinker and Awesome Andy. And then eventually lead into a She Hulk movie or tv show based on the Single Green Female run. Wishful thinking and of topic but that's what I want dammit.
I'm intrigued, but... ummm... AIM has a sign? A building that's clearly marked? An address?
They're a terrorist organization. This would be kind of like driving through an industrial park and finding a building with an AL QUEDA sign out front.
I'm sure this is a "front" or something, but honestly... A front is supposed to steer people AWAY from your terrorist organization's real name and roots, not advertise it like you're in the Cisco or Yahoo! building.
Ben Kingsley as MODOK. I'm sure they will just make him a regular dude whose surname is Modok. Richard Modok or something.
If Marvel Studios Won't give us M.O.D.O.K. in Iron Man 3 I hope we can get at least M.O.D.O.C. - Mental Organism Designed Only for Cameos
I thought you were talking about the Marvel Animated Universe version of M.O.D.O.C. -- Mental Organism Designed Only For Conquest.
Because being designed for Killing is too much for Disney XD, I guess.
It's weird, but I made a joke about AIM being involved when I realized the official Avengers timeline was dated as Before Iron Man and After Iron Man.
MODOK??.......Sorry guys, I haven't heard anything about Peter Dinklage being hired to be in Iron Man 3
What if Marvel is setting up AIM to introduce MODOK in Captain America 2? You know how they like to set things up in advance. Here's an article from August 2011 http://screenrant.com/captain-...
MODOK is ridiculous. Including him is a good way to tank the movie and derail this nerdy heaven we've been living in.
meh i never saw what was so great about Modok? i really would not miss him, but AIM is a great idea!!!
M.O.D.O.K is a character who is a-head of his timetry to get that in your little head
I needs me an AIM polo with that logo. Right now. Cause, of course, AIM people would wear polos, not tshirts.
Okay, considering AIM originally created MODOK in conjunction with the Cosmic Cube, and he was originally a Captain America villian and "died" in a Captain America book, my prediction is that AIM will be a minor part of Iron Man 3 with a random worker named George Tarleton working there. By the end of the movie, AIM gets ahold of the Cube and George goes through a radical experiment.
Post credits, MODOK, the villain for Captain America 2.
Except wasn't MODOK created to help build a Cosmic Cube in the first place?
I could see AIM trying to recreate one, though how that ties into an IM3 plot, I have no idea.
I am so excited they are filming in my backyard basically... When they come to Durham/Raleigh I am so going to try and sneak on set every day until I am arrested. Maybe, not that far; but I'll definitely send any pictures I manage to take...
In the Marvel movie universe, the Red Skull started HYDRA, and not Strucker. AIM started as a branch of HYDRA that was science-based. I could absolutely see the head of AIM being Arnim Zola himself. Also, it sounds like the movie plot may be a combination of Armor Wars and Extremis...what if AIM were to use a guinea pig named George Tarleton in their attempt to recreate Extremis?
See, I'm concerned that they might be trying to cram in too much if they use AIM in too much detail. I'd use them as background for several movies, myself, as secondary villains, before bringing them to the fore later.
You're thinking of Bob, Agent of HYDRA. Deadpool's AIM "friend" (hostage) was named Bill.
MODOK and/or MODAM in real-life in 3D?!? people will puke when they see that! so awesome.
also, i hope this gets us closer to Toby Jones getting his face put in his chest for Arnim Zola.
Make MODOK happen. For once, throw a bone – a big, juicy, homicidal bone – to the true fans.
I'm assuming you're so busy with E3 and stuff like this to do DVD day? Just curious with "John Carter' coming out, thought you'd have commetns on that.
YES! I think A.I.M. might have been hinted at in The Avengers when Selvig asked Clint how they got the Tesseract stuff built so fast and he responded the S.H.I.E.L.D. has many enemies. A.I.M. was the first thing that came to mind when he said that.
Yeah that makes sense. I think my first thought after that line was Hydra, but having featured primarily in Captain America it wouldn't make sense to allude to them so vaguely.
Here's an interesting observation though re: Marvel movie fanon - it's quite obvious that the Americans lost access to Zola after WWII.
As otherwise, they wouldn't have taken 70 years to make a dent in studying/siphoning power from the Tesseract to power Zola's designs. The dude was probably the only guy who was able to actually figure out how to wield its power, and I doubt SHIELD has those secrets handy (they have batteries, and weapons, but no idea how to build the batteries in the first place, while Zola does).
Thus it's my current movie fanon that he disappeared sometime after the war and founded AIM. After all, though he wasn't a HYDRA fanatic, he clearly agreed with enough of their principles to side with them and not defect when he had a chance.
And melded his character with MODOK maybe? I hadn't thought of that, and it would make his lens-face introduction in Cap more ironic foreshadowing.
That's a nice theory. Would be really cool if they brought him back as founder of AIM (maybe even with the android body).
....didn't even occur to me.
I could see AIM using their time with access to the Cube to attempt to duplicate it. That said, this makes me REALLY hope they don't make AIM the main baddies who get defeated. I'd love them to have TIES to the Armor Wars, but not be the big evil masterminds. Just technological middlemen.
