Iron Man's realised partly by a practical suit and partly by CGI. that was shown in 2 with the donut set photo.

Except for the fact that the consultation obviously grew into recruiting agent as we saw a little later on at "The Incredible Hulk". "Iron Man 2" was a test of character for Tony, one we saw him grow from the selfish, arrogant, egotistical man basking in his own glory into something we all know his potential can be by the end of it. It seemed pretty clear to me from the teaser we saw that Tony is at least very interactive with his team mates. I doubt though he will have any kind of leadership right off the bat, I'm guessing that Tony will grow into the leadership role. As will Thor and Steve as they work together with the others.

Any word on villains they might be considering for a sequel? I would say Ultron, but his origin tends to be tied to Hank Pym (and also the Vision)....Kang maybe? Not sure about time travel stuff...The Leader was hinted in Incredible Hulk, but he's only really fought the Avengers a few times (In Hulk's own comics).

Have actors gotten better at staring into the blank space where a CGI character will go, say over the past decade?

It's practically all they do nowaday's

MoCap's suit's are the norm. I remember behind the scene's footage from "Jurassic Park".

A cardboard cut out of a dino's head on a stick was the reference point for actors.

Tony's role in The Incredible Hulk will be expanded upon in the Coulson short (appropriately titled "The Consultant"), to be released with the Thor DVD.

^ Indeed.

It's far too early to be speculating on "Avengers 2" villains IMO.

[MilleniumLance]

Now there's an idea!

One last picture to toss in here. Although filming on 9th Street was completed at this point, they still hadn't really begun to remove all the fake debris and wrecked vehicles. I particularly like this image:

So has the D3 footage leaked anywhere yet??

[Admiral_Young]

^ Sadly no, which is strange. You'd think something would have cropped up. I guess Marvel is locking down everything significant regarding "Avengers".
