One word: Extremis.
-
Indeed. I also just saw it. Quite epic.
-
Saw it last night. Whoever put the trailer on that car should be fired. I was offended it was so egregiously wrong.
-
Yea.
The fuck was up with the mandarin? Seriously, they showed the rings and everything, then MADE HIM A FUCKING BITCH. I was not happy, especially with the introduction of Magic to the marvel universe through Thor. It became "plausible".
And WTF was with jarvis? Seriously, does he live in individual suits? Why didn't he just fucking boot up all the suits in the basement when THE HOUSE WAS BEING BOMBARDED? I mean, it was nice to see the Hall of Armor for once, but WTF?
Or maybe run himself through one of the other suits so he wasn't USELESS for 60% of the movie?
-
Also...
why'd he destroy all the suits? Even if he didn't want them anymore, they could've been repurposed into fire-fighters or something where they'd be saving people's lives every day.
-
I didn't think it was very good.
Iron Man One was good.
-
I still liked it. Though I'll agree that the Mandarin part was pretty dumb. The idea behind it was neat but he probably should have been something else rather then the Mandarin. Maybe we can hope for the real Mandarin to appear in some future movie or reboot. >_>
Overall I found it quite enjoyable though. The extremis stuff was quite awesome.

When I first heard the name Extremis I was like "OH SHIT", because I've read the extremis story-line and know how fucked up it is, but they seemed to break from it a bit. Though, when he was implanting himself with the things in the start I was like, if he had his extremis suit he's be fine. Then, suddendly: EXTREMIS.
A quick prediction though, they seem to be leaning towards the Civil War universe, or World War Hulk with the "overall" storyline...
