Iron Man 3 – we’re excited for its release. But clearly not as much as this fan who made the trailer shot for shot at home

By Genna Patterson

Iron Man fan Dustin remade the entire Iron Man 3 trailer with a lot of cardboard, some tape and string. Casting himself as Tony Stark (with a drawn-on goatee), Dustin created the trailer shot for shot to match the real thing in his home. Unfortunately Dustin didn’t have the same big budget that the folks over at Marvel Studios and Paramount Pictures had.

Using some ingenuity, toys and some dolls, the trailer shows the extreme stunts such as people falling from a plane and a torpedo shooting into Stark’s clifftop mansion. He even has a mate in a wig playing Pepper Potts and he doubles up as Stark and The Mandarin with a false beard.

The best thing though has to be his effort at the trailer’s soundtrack as he hums the background music to create the intensity. We’re impressed at his dedication, but could he make the whole movie?
