There are less than four months left until the premiere of Paramount's Iron Man movie but in the meantime you can feast your eyes on this fan film created by David Guivant. It's not so much a movie as it is the opening title sequence for an Iron Man TV series, made in the spirit of Sandy Collora's Batman Dead End and World's Finest.
David created this on a shoestring budget over a period of a couple of years and it features Tony Stark as Iron Man, plus it includes Pepper Potts, Happy Hogan, The Black Widow, Ms. Marvel, Nick Fury AND The Mandarin. Not only that, but it's chock full of special effects, which believe it or not are all 2D and not 3D.
It's been a labor of love for him and I encourage you to check it out below!
Here is some background on the film, followed by the production credits after the movie:
