...Start with a big bang, end with terrifying mysticism. The creation of these movies always has this method: start with the opening and climactic sequences - in Raiders' case, the South American cave with the rolling rock and the opening of the Ark with the melting skulls - and work inward. (Or as Spielberg says on the new Last Crusade DVD: "How do we fill in the middle?") Here, the bang couldn't be bigger. The 12 min. opener takes Indy into Area 51, where he escapes into what seems to be an ideal Levittown ... except that the people are mannequins...
...weapon, his jeep is blown up, his team of escorts killed, and as he passes out he sees that the missile that did the damage came from Stark Industries. Severely wounded - and kept alive with a car battery wired to his heart - he comes to in the cave of Taliban-like insurgents, whose head-shaved leader (Faran Tahir) would very much appreciate it if Tony could confect a home-made bomb for him. Instead, with the help of a fellow prisoner (Shaun Toub), Tony constructs a heavily armed metal suit, blasts his way out of the cave and resolves...

She's not perfect--although Mormons avoid caffeine on principle, she drinks...
...drab, treacherous hills along the Afghan-Pakistani border, Morgan Spurlock sticks his head into a cave entrance and shouts, "Yoo-hoo! O-sa-ma!" Alas, there is no answer. This is not a SPOILER ALERT, unless you were maybe expecting to hear a heavily accented voice reply, "Come on in, kid. I've been itching to chat with some American doofus, if he only had the nerve to drop by. And, sure, bring your camera crew in. We'll all do lunch...
...alter ego, when Marvel Studios and Paramount Pictures wondered if a younger actor with a blander past would be a smarter marketing choice for a potential franchise. In Iron Man, Stark's convoy of humvees is attacked following a weapons demonstration. Insurgents hold him captive in a cave and demand that he build them a devastating weapon. Instead, Stark builds himself a suit of armor with a new sense of purpose. "Tony Stark goes through a bit of a moral reawakening in this movie," Favreau says-a character arc that tipped the casting in Downey's favor...
