So Iron Man is awesome and everything, but what’s also great about it is that, thanks to serendipitous casting, it causes Wonder Boys to retroactively offer a pretty good superhero crossover — Iron Man in bed with Spider-Man! How slashy!

Tony Stark plus Peter Parker equals … STARKERS?
Though I grant that they’re not quite as good as Wonder Boys’s other extranarrative superhero mash-up: Margie Gunderson in bed with Jack Trustworthy Colton.

OK, Grady Tripp, write us out of this one.
(Note: The film also includes a brief scene where Zed from Men in Black sort of flirts with Rachel Dawes from Batman Begins, but this does not qualify.)
