IRON MAN 3 GETS NEW DIRECTOR

It is official Jon Favreau vacated the director's chair for Iron Man 3. In most circumstances this would be a tragedy, Favreau really help define the style in which not only Iron Man but the whole Avengers franchise would look on film. He gave the first two installments a quirky almost storybook quality that showed his background in fairy tale movies (Elf, Zathura) and was yet able to tell in with a straight face.

However there might still be hope for Iron Man 3 to hold its weight.
