Iron Man 3 Notes
ADVANCE rom Marvel Studios comes “Iron Man 3,” which continues the epic, big-screen adventures of the world’s favorite billionaire-inventor-Super Hero, Tony Stark aka FIron Man. Marvel’s “Iron Man 3” pits brash-but-brilliant industrialist Tony Stark/Iron Man against an enemy whose reach knows no bounds. When Stark finds his personal world destroyed at his enemy’s hands, he embarks on a harrowing quest to find those responsible. This journey, at every turn, will test his mettle. With his back against the wall, Stark is left to survive by his own devices, relying on his ingenuity and instincts to protect those closest to him. As he fights his way back, Stark discovers the answer to the question that has secretly haunted him: does the man make the suit or does the suit make the man? Based on the ever-popular Marvel comic book Super Hero Iron Man, who first appeared on the pages of “Tales of Suspense” (#39) in 1963 and had his solo comic book debut with “The Invincible Iron Man” (#1) in May of 1968, “Iron Man 3” returns Robert Downey Jr. (“Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows,” “Tropic Thunder”) as Tony Stark, the iconic Super Hero, along with Gwyneth Paltrow (“Thanks for Sharing,” “Contagion”) as Pepper Potts, Don Cheadle (“Flight,” “Hotel Rwanda”) as James “Rhodey” Rhodes, Guy Pearce (“The Hurt Locker,” “Memento”) as Aldrich Killian, Rebecca Hall (“The Prestige,” “The Town,”) as Maya Hansen, Jon Favreau ( “Identity Thief,” “People Like Us”) as Happy Hogan and Ben Kingsley (“Schindler’s List,” “Gandhi,”) as The Mandarin.

Loki Production Brief
PRODUCTION BRIEF “I am Loki, and I am burdened with glorious purpose.” —Loki arvel Studios’ “Loki,” an original live-action series created exclusively for Disney+, features the mercurial God of Mischief as he steps out of his brother’s shadow. The series, described as a crime-thriller meets epic-adventure, takes place after the events Mof “Avengers: Endgame.” “‘Loki’ is intriguingly different with a bold creative swing,” says Kevin Feige, President, Marvel Studios and Chief Creative Officer, Marvel. “This series breaks new ground for the Marvel Cinematic Universe before it, and lays the groundwork for things to come.” The starting point of the series is the moment in “Avengers: Endgame” when the 2012 Loki takes the Tesseract—from there Loki lands in the hands of the Time Variance Authority (TVA), which is outside of the timeline, concurrent to the current day Marvel Cinematic Universe. In his cross-timeline journey, Loki finds himself a fish out of water as he tries to navigate—and manipulate—his way through the bureaucratic nightmare that is the Time Variance Authority and its by-the-numbers mentality. This is Loki as you have never seen him. Stripped of his self- proclaimed majesty but with his ego still intact, Loki faces consequences he never thought could happen to such a supreme being as himself. In that, there is a lot of humor as he is taken down a few pegs and struggles to find his footing in the unforgiving bureaucracy of the Time Variance Authority. As the series progresses, we see different sides of Loki as he is drawn into helping to solve a serious crime with an agent 1 of the TVA, Mobius, who needs his “unique Loki perspective” to locate the culprits and mend the timeline.

2019 Hyundai Veloster Will Make Its Hollywood Debut in Marvel Studios’ “Ant-Man and the Wasp”
2019 Hyundai Veloster Will Make Its Hollywood Debut In Marvel Studios’ “Ant-Man and the Wasp” DETROIT, Jan. 15, 2018 – Fans of Marvel Studios’ Ant-Man will soon be introduced to the stylish design and exceptional performance capabilities of the all-new Hyundai Veloster as it will play a significant role in Marvel Studios’ “Ant-Man and the Wasp”. Teaming up with this major franchise is part of a global marketing initiative to launch the newly redesigned sporty coupe while increasing Hyundai’s brand awareness with Marvel fans around the world. The 2019 Hyundai Veloster will find itself at home in the Super Hero world when it is used on screen in a hot pursuit. The heroic scene showcases the Veloster’s capabilities in serving as the ultimate escape vehicle as the tailing cars can’t handle the speed and handling of the Veloster—no matter its size. “Similar to Marvel’s passionate fans, the Hyundai Veloster attracts customers who are always looking for that next extraordinary moment and yearn for new discoveries and opportunities,” said Dean Evans, CMO, Hyundai Motor America. “With both the Veloster and Ant-Man thriving on individuality, we feel this partnership is a great fit and we’re excited to be accompanying Marvel on their next adventure.” Success is a given when it comes to Marvel, and the Ant-Man franchise provides a platform for global visibility. Released in 2015, Marvel Studios’ “Ant-Man” achieved a global box office of $519M and quickly became a fan-favorite. The sequel is highly anticipated with talk of how the plot of the film could “shake up” the Marvel Cinematic universe.

Gender Portrayal in the Marvel Cinematic Universe
UCCS|Undergraduate Research Journal|12.2 Gender Portrayal in the Marvel Cinematic Universe by Jess Ameter Abstract This paper will explore the way gender is portrayed within the popular Marvel Cinematic Universe. It will explore literature and studies regarding gender roles as well as how they relate to the relatively few female characters within this universe as well as issues relating to gender within the Superhero genre as a whole. This paper will also look at how female characters are treated by other characters, their relative importance, the gendered stereotypes that they are bound to, and the relationship between the fans of Marvel and the Marvel company itself. This paper will make an argument that while the Marvel Cinematic Universe has made steps toward equal gender representation, many issues relating to this can still be found within it and must be addressed and solved. Introduction to Gender Portrayal Within the Marvel Cinematic Universe Female fans of Marvel have long claimed that the company does not show equal representation of women in its media than it does of men. The view is far from an objective fact, however. Many men as well as Marvel representatives either deny this claim or else seek to justify it. This argument is very controversial and has been an important debate within the Superhero genre for decades, and many fans and scholars have debated one side or the other. This paper explores both sides in order to make an informed argument on the issue. The discussion below will recognize the impact that media can have on society as a whole.

Thor: Ragnarok, Another Movie Credit for Exceptional Minds with Autism
Contact: Dee McVicker Grassroots Communications Gilbert, Arizona 480.545.7363 [email protected] Thor: Ragnarok, Another Movie Credit for Exceptional Minds with Autism Exceptional Minds Studio staffed by visual effects professionals on the autism spectrum adds “Thor: Ragnarok” to its list of movie credits. Los Angeles, California – November 3, 2017 – The special bond between autism and comic book heroes was once again evident at Wednesday’s cast and crew screening of Marvel’s latest movie Thor: Ragnarok, which was attended by eight visual effects artists from Exceptional Minds Studio. The artists – all young adults on the autism spectrum – are both Marvel fans and working professionals who provide visual cleanup for feature films. Exceptional Minds artists have done visual effects and/or end title work for Marvel movies Spider-Man: Homecoming, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, Doctor Strange, Captain America: Civil War, Ant-Man, and Avengers: Age of Ultron. Thor: Ragnarok is the seventh Marvel movie for the artists at Exceptional Minds Studio, the only visual effects and animation studio staffed entirely by professionals on the autism spectrum. During Wednesday’s screening at the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, Los Angeles, Marvel Studios Executive Vice President of Physical Production Victoria Alonso applauded the work done by Exceptional Minds and encouraged others to learn from the studio’s example. “What a wealth of untapped potential exists in this extraordinary group of young adults,” she said. Since opening its doors almost four years ago, the small studio has done tracker marker removal, split screen, green screen keying, and rotoscoping for compositing as well as end title credit work and animation for more than 50 major motion pictures and/or television series.
