X2 wasn't all that bad, I hated Spiderman 2. I left the theatre halfway through the movie.
Nick Cage is a good actor, he might be able to pull it off.

Funny I was just reading about a failed Superman movie which would have featured Nicholas Cage as the Man of Steel. I'm not sure how that would have turned out.

MOst of the ideas behind that Superman movie went into Wild Wild West- giant mechanical spider and all (or so Kevin Smith's story of the Superman project goes).

I feel like RDJ could bring some intensity and charisma to Tony Stark, but I worry about his ability to bring calm/cool.

Hmmm...if Hollywood can make terrible actors like Val Kilmer and Keanneu Reeves remotely cool, there'll be no problem.

Keanu Reeves bad (in most things), yes. Val Kilmer...not so much.

Michael Mann once said of Val Kilmer's acting "If I were to direct a move about Val Kilmer's life, I still would not cast Val Kilmer."
It seems the 10-plus takes Kilmer needed to get scenes in Heat right did not enamour the director to him.
On a personal note- I think he's sucked pretty hard in everything since Real Genius. Of course, I think Kevin Costner sucks in everything except The Big Chill.
