Saleen S7

The Saleen S7 (never heard of it before) is one of the cars in the Iron Man movie. I doubt I ever saw a car which made a clearer statement of "fast car, stand back!" Gorgeous.
Part of it is the color, it's fantastic. What the hell is that color? It's not red, it's not orange... and it has some added... not metallic?... I dunno.


Anyway, I now watching the DVD documentaries for the movie, and I'm impressed with the work which went into making the suits, both CGI and real suits. Astounding amounts of work, and a great result.
Also if you think you can spot when it is CGI and when it's real, give it up, not even those who worked on it can tell anymore.

One false note, right at the end: "Samu El Jackson" as Nick Fury? Oh noooooo. I'm so tired of that guy. He's not bad, but he has the range of a penny whistle.
