Iron Man 3 hits theaters this weekend, marking the fourth time that Tony Stark has been prominently featured in a movie. But it's been five years since we first saw Robert Downey Jr. don his iron armor, and it can be hard to keep track of everything Tony's been up to since. That's why we've put together this handy guide to Tony's journey — including villains, love interests, and everything in between. To refresh your memory, skip the movie marathon and take our crash course in all things Stark instead.

Iron Man 3's May 3 release date may feel miles away, but at least we have a few teases from the film to check out until then. So far, we've gotten a peek at returning alums Robert Downey Jr., Gwyneth Paltrow, and Don Cheadle, and a few new characters have made their debut as well. Click through to see Guy Pearce as Aldrich Killian, Ben Kingsley as The Mandarin, and all the rest of the teasing one-sheets.
Favorite Comic Book Movie Adaptations
As more and more films are being adapted from popular comic books, it seems every week there's a new superhero gracing the silver screen. X-Men: First Class opens in theaters today, and while BuzzSugar says it helps to revitalize the franchise, there are other comic book adaptations that you love as well. Check out this list of your top picks, and if you don't see your favorites there, share them with us in the comments!
FuelBelt H20 Collection: Cool or Not?
I recently saw someone at my gym wearing a FuelBelt — a sort of holster for water. I felt a little bad because I kept staring at it, mainly because I had never seen one in person, and was curious. Although it seemed a little out of place in the gym, I thought it might be a good accessory for outdoor runs. In fact, many serious athletes are seen wearing FuelBelts come race day.
FuelBelt's latest H20 belt ($40) is "one size fits all" and comes in seven stylish colors. The belt holds two eight-ounce bottles and a small pouch that you can put your ID, phone, or other items in. And if you're not into wearing your water around your waist, there's always the Body Bottle ($25), allowing you to wear a water bottle on your arm. I'm wondering what you think of these types of products . . .
