Iron Man's been my favorite super hero character since 1977, and it's
certainly hard for me to find fault with that trailer.  But... since
I've raised this point many times in the past, in many different
forums:

When I was a kid I used to complain that all the superheroes only
fought "normal" villains, rather than super-powered ones.  SUPERMAN II
changed that.  Yaay.

Now I'm just wishing the heroes would fight villains who don't have
essentially the same powers and gimmicks and looks as the heroes.

Hulk / Abomination.  Spidey / most of his foes (esp. Venom).  Thor /
Loki.  Iron Man / Iron Monger (and now Whiplash, all Iron Man-ified,
plus armored army). X-Men / evil mutants.  On and on.

I guess that's the one bright spot I can find in the FF movies.  They
didn't fight four people who gained super powers in a space accident.
Then again, they did rework Doom's origin into exactly that, didn't
they?  *sigh*

Some mixin' and matchin', please??
