NEWS: Iron Man 2, Karate Kid, and a Joaquin Phoenix Doc?

Hello all! It has been a mighty long week, mainly filled with rumors swirling out of Park City, Utah, the site of Sundance, yet, there have been quite a few bits of news that I have neglected to mention. However, all shall be forgotten, as here are your news headlines...

- It looks like Casey Affleck may be in talks, or at least in the thought process, of doing a documentary on Joaquin Phoenix, and his attempt at his new career, rapping. He IS married to Joaquin's sister, Summer, so this is really no suprise...
