I watched the Ironheart trailer so you didn't have to...

I will note the few good things from the trailer first:

1. An "Iron Man" suit that isn't nanotech. I preferred the feel that the old school suits had, but understand WHY they did the nanotech suit.
2. Parker Robbins (aka The Hood) is a potentially good villain. He is one of the more unique villains in the Marvel comics.
3. The Dean from Community is apparently a staff member at MIT; the actor is hilarious and perhaps he can retain his comedic genius here.

That's... about it.

Issues:
1. Riri isn't showcased in a way that makes her any more likeable than she was depicted in Black Panther.

2. Highly unbelievable that anyone capable of building a fully functional Iron Man suit would be disregarded - Iron Man 2 made it ABUNDANTLY clear how hard it was to actually build one. We (the audience) are supposed to believe that the government when from trying to claim Tony's suit to not giving a flip when a college student builds one?

3. Worried they will waste The Hood on this show that has had practically no publicity (side note: His costume looks good in the comics, but not sure I think it carries over to live action)

4. Riri is not a muscular person in the MCU or the comics, but her first act includes pulling a metal bar from the interior of an elevator off the wall - something a fully grown, in good shape man would have trouble doing. This is in the first scene we see her in for the trailer, definitely setting a tone.

I don't have a problem when women are depicted as physically strong, so long as it makes sense (either their powers make them strong - ala Wonder Woman - or in the case of normal people, their physique makes it believable that they could do something like that - ala Gina Carano).

5. It should be noted that in the comics, Riri's first suit was reverse engineered and built using stolen materials - and then damaged the first time she uses it. It's not nearly as good an introduction as another younger hero entering the role of an established hero (Miles Morales) but was still 100x better than her introduction in the MCU, and this series does not appear to help with this.


Finally, in case you wanted to watch it anyway:
