wasn't terrible, it was just exactly like the other 2



Iron Man 3 was a slap in the face to any human being with even the remotest level of intelligence.

Not to mention the massive dump the writers took on actual fans of the comic book taking Mandarin and making him an imbecile.

The movie was complete crap.

"HOUSE PARTY"

Looks like we don't even need Stark in the next movie. It will just be a bunch of AI Iron Suits taking out bad guys to a loud obnoxious soundtrack with lots of lense flares and close up shaky cam fights in the dark.

The movie was horrible. Worse than two and two was a pile of trash basically repeating the plot from 1 except for more bad guys in similar iron suits.

God I hate this movie and not just a little.

Amen to all of this. I hated that movie with every fiber of my being. I was furious when i got out of it. My gf kept telling me to calm down. I literally couldnt. F**k that movie and everyone involved in it.

The only bright side of

"HOUSE PARTY"

is that it will be the orgin of Ultron, probably causing Tony to get back into the suit(hopefully Rhodey will be in there too). I'd like to see Rhodes in other movies working with SHIELD at this point.

although the Ultron thing is a slap in the face to Hank Pym, especially with Ant-Man kicking off Phase 3. Pym was teased in Norton's Hulk movie and we are finally getting to him.


finally, did anyone see that Vin Diesel is going to be Groot? He also said that the initial talks were about him playing into a lead role in Phase 3...to start the new phase. No way they had him as Ant-Man, right?

as for the talk of Vision, I'd rather see Vision as a Motion-Capture/CGI (like Gollum) than an actor in a suit and Vision doesn't sound like VD to me.

I must have been the only one that thought Iron Man 3 was actually enjoyable. Yeah, the Mandarin was a farce, but no way could they have gone into the Mandarin's character with any sort of depth and made it believable. Yeah, RDJ did a lot of whining, but that was in keeping with his post traumatic stress from the Avengers. The movie was almost entirely about him overcoming his basic "What the frick!? Aliens! Gods! O shite, I'm about to die!" moment in New York.

Seemed a little more coherent than, say, Man of Steel, which was one big fight scene after another. I actually like Superman Returns (a/k/a Superman Redux) better than Man of Steel, which was hackneyed at best. I lost some respect for Nolan with that because the only reason I even went to see Man of Steel was because his name was attached to it. Otherwise, I would have avoided it like the plague thanks to Zac "I suck at making movies" Snyder directing it.

But, in all fairness, neither IM3 nor MoS was a very good movie. They were your standard superhero fare. Maybe a little worse than Thor or Captain America, but not by much.

if he is the smartest man on the planet and is shocked of about other life forms...he's not that smart. Also, a guy lived in ice for 70 years and woke up to be a super soldier and one of his buddies turns into an unstoppable rage monster. I'll give you the god thing.

The surmise of Tony in Tennessee was absurd. He has way too many connections and of course he could have called house party before he was attacked. Lastly, they hinted at Mandarin in the first one and totally took a left turn. I thought they missed the mark there.

I am okay with taking chances, but the Mandarin choice was the wrong one-it's Tony's arch nemesis. Don't bastardize the source material.
