Deleted 'Iron Man' Scene Every Man's Fantasy

With Iron Man hitting video shelves on September 30th, Marvel and Paramount have leaked a deleted scene from the film to generate a ton of free publicity. And here's the best part: They were holding out on us. This scene actually rocks.

Robert Downey Jr. and Gwyneth Paltrow are the featured performers, however, I can't take my eyes off their co-stars, and I think that's by design. Billionaire industrialist and bad boy Tony Stark takes home three ready and willing brunettes in the scene. That's right: It's our first Marvel foursome ever captured on film. Or the build-up to that, anyway.

It also provides a much-needed plot point, transitioning Stark from the West Coast to the Middle East. The scene takes place at Stark's home in Dubai, which just adds to the whole billionaire-who-could-score-a-foursome mystique of the character. But Marvel has never had a hero with this kind of sexual appetite before, so cutting the sequence out for theatrical purposes makes some sense, too.

Still, if it debuted on Access Hollywood, I think it would've been just fine to leave it in the film.

Again, an all-the-bells-and-whistles Iron Man is coming to DVD on September 30th, and you just watched the best commercial for it money could - but did not have to - buy. (Thanks to Trailer Addict for the video.)

Yep. That's the DVD sales to fourteen-year-old boys more or less guaranteed.
