I didn't like those, and don't like superhero movies in general, but that's not the point. I was just genuinly curious why so many people like this type of movies, made only for entertainment with not much solid ground.
Are you seriously questioning why people like entertainment?

Iron Man 1, was ok, it entertained me.
Iron Man 2, put me in a coma. Zzzz.
Should I go see Iron Man 3?
If you are a fan of Iron Man, Marvel, or comic book movies in general, then yes. Iron Man 3 is a little better than Iron Man 2.

Read my original post again. I know people like movies like Iron Man, Avengers and Avatar because they are entertaining. That's not the point. My point was the huge succes these movies get, compared to the more realistic ones. If you check the box office, it's very rare that you get to see something like Cinderella man, You don't know Jack, The hunt. I personally watch all types of movies, but most people I know only follow these eye candy block-busters. That's what bothers me.

Because people live in reality. Many people dont want MORE reality when being entertained (unless they are watching people being dumb... reality TV).

Watched it and wondered how your body would survive so much impact with metal.
Jumping into various suits is fine but surely that shit would hurt

That movie was incredible. O__O
I was a huge fan of the others, and The Avengers and whatnot. But the other movies were just fun, this movie actually had me hooked and focused like the entire time. So good.

Why does it bother you? Why do you care what other people do with their time?

Yeah. I think Stark is quite used to it ever since he started building these armors. Besides, Stark has come a long way since the days of the first Iron Man. I'm sure he improved the comfort and safety of each armor. At least, we see Stark getting cuts and start bleeding when he's in a long battle. I think Stark can tolerate some level of pain. This is the same guy injecting microchips into arm in the beginning of Iron Man 3 when he was testing the Mark 42 armor.

Without giving too much away how badly do they change the storyline (and is it in a positive way)?
More realism, for example, no 10 rings from aliens. Can't really say much else without spoiling.

just wanted to echo this.
Its a pretty logical trend/idea. As the world is constantly being made more aware of threats/danger/bad shit going on, people will look for, and enjoy more and more, any escapes from our own reality. (I make this point, not saying that more bad stuff happens now than before..just saying we are more aware of all of the bad news of the entire world thanks to technology and the age of information... 1000 years ago when people on the other side of the planet were being wiped out... people weren't aware of it and were not worried about it as they were safe in their immediate area... now if anything bad happens anywhere, we all see/hear/read about it...its a bit of a downer tbh)
IDK this is why at least I play video games/enjoy movies... its not real. And its fun and enjoyable and stress-free to be taken to a magical place where bad shit doesn't actually affect me..but at the same time it makes me happy to know I saved the day in this fantasy universe..and if I failed... I just start over or re-load.
Just saying there is a reason that fantasy and super hero movies are gaining popularity in todays age.

I'm getting bored of the same things over and over.
Bad guy takes over the television and sends a message to the president zzzzz
It's like a spoof.

Honestly, I thought it was quite good. It was refreshing to see Tony out of the suit. 7/10

You must be one bothered man with 99.9999% of art being that way nowadays...

Really bad movie.. Was checking my watch all the time in the cinemas. Dull action, tons of cliches and never really got excited or anything.
Waited after the credits for the infamous last scene but was kinda boring and didn't really reveal anything major.
3.5/10

Yes that is what is bothering you when you got superhumans running around, regenerating whole body parts and throwing fire from their mouths :D
You must be one of those people that complains that Dragons could not possibly fly..

After sleeping on it I think Iron Man 3 might be my favorite of the series. I want to see it again just to solidify my opinion (which says something positive I suppose).
It was incredibly different from the first two. It was hilariously written - funnier than the other two by far and maybe even funnier than Avengers.
It was also a lot more violent. Not necessarily blood and guts but the fight scenes were a lot more intense than the previous films. I'm not used to Tony Stark talking about killing other people as much as he did and seemingly having little regard for it. Most comic book heroes actively try to avoid killing, but Tony definitely didn't have a problem with it in this movie. Granted everyone he killed was evil + Show Spoiler + and most of them were doped up on Extremis
Tony was also REALLY out of sorts the entire film. + Show Spoiler +He basically has PTSD from flying the nuclear missile into the worm hole in New York
The use of the Mandarin was incredibly daring but I think it paid off. + Show Spoiler +It takes away a really powerful recurring villain but at the same time Ben Kingsley is so hilarious and it was such a brilliant twist that I'm not necessarily bothered.
Overall I loved it and would see it again. There are some things that bother me about it but I haven't quite figured them out yet.
8.5/10

I'd say only like 10% has any similarity what-so-ever to the comic. Gotta enjoy the movie for what it is because if you go in expecting similarities to the comic storyline, you will probably be disappointed.
