'Iron Man 2' vs. the Volcano: Advantage, Volcano

Image Credit: Industrial Light & Magic“My only weakness: Icelandic volcanoes!” The Hollywood Reporter brings word that the planned April 26th world premiere of Iron Man 2 will be moved from London to Los Angeles due to the volcanic dust cloud that has shut down most air traffic from Western Europe. Stark Industries had no comment, but authorities suspect that the Mandarin, supervillain and noted ring enthusiast, may have something to do with this.

Does anyone else find it weird that a gigantic cloud of evil burning ash has been set loose on the world just a few weeks before the end of Lost, a show whose main antagonist is a gigantic cloud of evil black smoke? Seriously, folks, there’s some Neverending Story junk happening here.
