From thesuperficial, probably should’ve added NERD ALERT in the headline.
Presumably to show off that Disney will use all the characters in the Marvel stable however the hell they want, here’s James Badge Dale in character as Iron Patriot on the set of Iron Man 3 in North Carolina today which is surprising because a.) if you’ve been following the movie it was just assumed he’d been playing Coldblood since his character is Eric Savin and b.) during Marvel’s “Dark Reign” Iron Patriot was the alter-ego of Norman Osborn a.k.a. Spider-Man’s Green Goblin who Sony still owns the rights to.
Translation For People Who Have Sexual Intercourse With Women:
Iron Man is totally going to fight this America Iron Man in the new Iron Man which is apparently a big deal to that dude who’s always in the LEGO aisle in Target but you can safely say isn’t a pedophile because you once saw a six-year-old beat the shit out of him for the last Captain America set. (That kid was easily eight.)

Does Iron Man ever fight anybody who's not a variation of himself?
Well, there's all those aliens, but you're right about his own movies.
I've been meaning to make a list of all the superhero movies in which the heroes fight someone who got their powers from the same thing they got theirs from. It's not just the movies, of course, and it makes sense story-wise, but it feels like it's every movie. For example:
Spider-Man
Spider-Man 3 (Venom)
Fantastic Four
Fantastic Four 2 (Doom gets the surfboard)
Green Lantern
Iron Man
Iron Man 2
Captain America
Hulk
Incredible Hulk
Superman 2
Superman 4 (sort of)
I guess X-Men as well, but the mutant thing is so essential to the story it feels wrong to include it.
No wait; Captain America doesn't count, does it? What's the connection between the Red Skull/Hydra/Tesseract plot and the serum plot?
Also, the first Batman if you stretch the point. "You made me!" "Well, you made me!" (Idiocy.)
Does Blade count?
Red Skull was Erskine's first test subject in the movie, I don't know what his deal is in the comics.
I was wondering about Blade, but it's kind of like the mutant/X-Men thing. Vampirism existing is a prerequisite of the story, rather than a new development, so I left it out.
Right; I forgot about that.
It's so interesting in comics how these incredibly dangerous, unlikely, unrepeatable things happen to people (blasts of radiation; chemical poisoning; etc.) and rather than getting Leukemia they turn into superpowered beings...and they either become really, really good-looking (and turn into heroes) or become disfigured and ugly (and become villains).
