SAN DIEGO, Calif. -- It was another action-packed Saturday at the San Diego Comic-Con, as "Iron Man 2" stars Robert Downey Jr., Scarlett Johansson, Don Cheadle and Sam Rockwell, along with director Jon Favreau, took to Hall H to showcase their super-sequel.

"Nobody cared about 'Iron Man' until we came here," Jon told the audience in a panel moderated by Access Hollywood's own Scott "Movie" Mantz.

After showing a disappointing introduction clip - for which Robert tore into Jon with mock outrage - the stars showcased roughly five minutes of more impressive footage, which included Don as Jim Rhodes talking with Justin Hammer (Rockwell) and getting the first glimpse of the War Machine armor, as well as Mickey Rourke letting loose his weaponry as the villainous Whiplash.

And in other Comic-Con news, fans of HBO's vampire drama will soon be able to get a real-life taste of "True Blood."

A blood orange beverage, Tru Blood, will launch this fall, it was announced at the hit show's panel at Comic-Con.

The "uniquely carbonated, slightly tart, lightly sweet" drink will start shipping on Sept. 8.

    I didn't know how easy it was to meet actresses.I feel like it's up to me if I want them. I've already done more than all of Scarlett's men. I will never watch a movie if I don't meet her. I need to know if I should act. I win in music against her music men. I win in writing against her writing men. I win in cooking and baking. I would win in acting. I win i

    The show is TRUE Blood, with and E, the drink is TRU Blood without the E. Either way, it's just another way to milk money out of a show and people with no lives but TV and their crazy obsessive love for their favorite shows will obviously cough up the money for a drink they probably won't even like. I mean have you ever had a blood orange? Yuck. But to each his own...

    Sorry to ruin it for you but since it is an actually series of books with Charlaine Harris those of us that have read it know Sookie and Bill break up never to be together again! Don't worry though, her other relationships / flings and revelations as to Bill's true nature will make you change your mind about them being meant for each other...
