Audio/Video Quality: Iron Man XXX was presented in anamorphic widescreen as shot by director Axel Braun for Vivid (their comic book line). With Axel sharing writing credit with “Mark Logan”, helping edit it with his wife and Claudia Ross, and being credited for shooting it with “Eli Cross”, the director wore many hats this time. Kylie Ireland had a cameo as a news reporter on the Vivid News network (cute nods included if you look closely) as well as took credit for the art direction, the sum total of the technical crew being it was all well handled. It looked better than I expected given some of Axel’s recent parodies, the decline in budgets less obvious thanks to some fine special effects and minimal nods to the characters by someone I had the impression used to read about their exploits. There was a company watermark on the lower right corner as well. The aural components were credited to Seth Cardigan and Mister Me, the music appropriate, the vocals easily heard thanks to grip work by Sly, Mike, and Dizzy, and even the relative lack of ambient noises did not hurt the general quality of the sound, editing by Mrs. Braun helping it work.

Body of Review: Axel Braun is a director known almost exclusively for his porn parodies, his best works at Vivid garnering a massive amount of awards and accolades. His latest parody worth talking about is called Iron Man XXX: An Axel Braun Parody, the movie showing that Axel can make a good parody when given the resources to do so. There were some quirks here but it served the origin of the character well enough, touching base with other Marvel universe characters to tie into other parodies released under Axel’s banner. While much of this was shot two years ago, it was close enough to the earlier parody by another company that I did not want to directly compare them here, the use of the Mandarin certainly better than the multimillion dollar mainstream Iron Man 3 release to my sensibilities. Sexually, it is tough to complain about seeing Brooklyn Lee, Lexi Belle, and the other ladies cast, the clever post credits scene one of the better tricks I’ve seen to acknowledge that watching through to the end is always a good idea. The back cover described the movie like this: “From legendary director Axel Braun and adult powerhouse Vivid Entertainment comes an action-packed sexy spoof on the tale of billionaire philanthropist Tony Stark (Dale DaBone) and his superhero alter-ego. When Stark is kidnapped and forced to build a deadly weapon, he instead uses his intelligence to fabricate an indestructible armor and escape his captors. Once free, he must fight the evil Mandarin, save the world, and get laid. Not necessarily in that order.” Here’s a brief look at the scenes by cast and action, noting that no condoms were used for those still interested:

Scene One: Dana DeArmond, an anal extreme queen best known in gonzo circles, was up first as a cock sucking doctor responsible for saving the life of Dale “Tony Stark” DaBone when he was rescued as a prisoner to create weapons. They were in a dark cave when her technical measure to save him required some extra care in the form of a sloppy blowjob, Dana slobbing his knob actively as she throated him and otherwise serviced him better than any character has to date. The oral led to her climbing onto his turgid pecker to actively ride him vaginally, the couple moving to some anal positions where she was at least as well versed with milking a nut. Dana kept good eye contact right up until he fed her his wealth of genetic juice orally, the baby batter devoured by the gal as she continued to gaze up at him.

Scene Two: Skin Diamond and Jazy Berlin, a couple of party girls willing to explore their nastier side with a billionaire industrialist, were up next in bed with Dale DaBone, the ladies sharing his rod orally as their hand to gland action and lesbian proclivities gave him something extra. The playful manner in which they shared his pecker was decent enough, the relatively passive vaginal penetration positions leaving the scene a bit flat sexually. Skin was the better of the two by far, Dale thumbing her ass as he porked the lean hotty while her perfect ass cheeks rippled delightfully well. She gave Jazy some head while his cock was buried inside of her too, Jazy’ portion of the porking cut thankfully short to allow Skin more screen time in cowgirl. The tryst finished up when he beat off all over their faces, the population pudding swallowed by Skin while Jazy left her share unattended.

Scene Three: Lexi Belle, an attractive Pepper Potts in flapper costume, was up next giving Derrick “The Mandarin” Pierce, a sultry blowjob on the second floor landing in the house during the party. She looked up at him as she blew him, taking time to jerk him off as well as such the head while doing so, his wad of spunk swallowed all too soon as the bare breasted young lady finished up as his sex slave.

Scene Four: Brooklyn Lee, the deliciously curvy redhead reprising her role as the Black Widow, was up next in a lesbian encounter with Lexi Belle, the blond still feeling the effects of her mind altered bender with Derrick in the previous scene. Brooklyn offered to help using her skills, her skin tight outfit looking as fetching as ever as it hugged her wonderful curves. The couple kissed and caressed each other, some time spent savoring titty and gobbling gash alike, the pair even moving into a 69 position where both worked on each other at the same time. While there was no spunk from a guy provided this one time, I thought it appealing to see the two assume such stereotypical roles, Brooklyn dominating sexy Lexi in such a way that it did add some replay strokability for me. It should be noted that this was actually the last sex scene in the movie before the ending credits, the surprise scene following shortly thereafter.

Scene Five: Shazia Sahari, an exotic brunette with all natural curves, was up next as a spy trying to obtain something from Lexington “Nick Fury” Steele, both of them acknowledging each other as they came to terms on providing each other with what was needed. They “shook on it” which meant her walking over to give him a taste of her tits, his hands pawing her as he continued to savor her welcoming body, her ass grinding on his lap as she found his special weapon. She knelt down to blow the man with some degree of skill, using her tongue and hand in unison to pleasure the man with some of the silliest dialogue I have heard in one of Axel’s comic book parodies. An abrupt edit led to showing her bouncing on his rod vaginally, Lex grabbing her meaty ass as it bounced too, her bald beaver taking a beating as Lex plowed her as deeply as possible before he burst forth with a shower of splooge, the ball batter glazing her face and upper torso as she knelt in front of him.

Summary: Iron Man XXX by director Axel Braun for Vivid was fun and I thought Dale made a fine Tony Stark, I just wished the feature elements allowed the characters to be fleshed out better or at least allowed the sex scenes to be longer but as a cosplay stroke parody, it merited a rating of Recommended or better if you enjoy comic book parodies, I just had the impression that this was placed on the back burner too long to take best advantage of everything else going on over the last few years. In short, Iron Man XXX: An Axel Braun Parody was an interesting update to the comic book hero mythology, the sexual antics strong enough to keep the fanboys locked in their parents basements while they check things out repeatedly. The technical aspects had a few quirks and Tony’s electric heart/penis might have been one of the more unusual aspects of the footage but it did provide ample grounds to finish things up with a sequel of epic proportion if done right.
