Putting Sam Jackson in the same room as a bunch of video game developers is just unfair -- the guy's awesome when he's fighting reptiles on aircraft, but when he's surrounded by engineers and programmers, he turns into a legend. Don Cheadle, too -- you get the feeling that his Academy Award-nominated dedication to the acting craft might be somewhat wasted on lines like, "Hey, you're Tony Stark, right?" and "War Machine out," but he's so talented that he throws himself into it anyway.
Also, we hear there's a game of some kind out now with these voices in it. But it's doubtful that playing the game could be any more fun than watching these guys work.

Didn't someone comment that the trailer included a bad S.L Jackson impression?

Samuel L. Jackson voices who I consider to be the greatest videogame bad guy in contemporary games, Officer Tenpenny from San Andreas. He's impeccably well acted in that game.

thats cause he could be himself....I don't like Sam too often when there aren't MFs being thrown around.....the one time I can say I liked the quiet Sam was when he was Mace Windu

Guess you can chalk this one up as mature with f-bombs bound!

I always feel bad when talented actors get contractually forced to provide voices in movie games that are almost always total garbage.
