Iron Man - Cobra Smash

It wasn't fiberglass..... Whose cobra did they smash in the Iron Man movie. Why the heck did they choose OUR car when some many others were there to ruin! I suspect it was just a shell but still hated to see it wrecked. My wife punched me in the side when it happened and said, "I bet you didn't like that did you!"

They obviously had the right idea. Look at all the controversy it's caused just on here. That sort of stuff puts butts on cinema seats.

It was a pretty effective stunt as most of the real car guys would have known it was a replica if bits of fiberglass scattered around. Tony Stark wouldn't have a Cobra replica in his garage.

I saw Iron Man on Saturday night and though it was a great flick. my wife even enjoyed it and it wasn't her kind of movie.

Cheers

Maybe not... but obviously Tony Stark would have a Kirkham in his garage.
