For anyone that wondered where War Machine was during The Avengers, they are going to explain it in the movie and there will even be a tie in comic of War Machine during the events of The Avengers.

I didn't really care for Iron Man 2 that much, it was kind of disappointing. I am really excited to see Sir Ben Kingsley as a comic book villain though, from the trailers seems like he will play it well.

Just saw the new trailer! Pretty cool. For me, superhero movies like iron man I was expecting very little from, and they pleasantly surprised me. The new movie looks to be good, probably going to go see it I suppose.

Just got back from seeing this.

Overall pretty solid movie, some nice throwbacks linking it to The Avengers and events surrounding the movie. It's an attempt at a more personal story and tony coming to terms with his experiences. Didn't like the narration, felt out of place. There was a nice scene after the credits relating to it but meh. I gave personally gave avengers an 9/10 but I reckon they tried to do a bit much in this movie, so I'll say 8/10.
+ Show Spoiler +
Liked the direction they took with having very little "suit time" to begin with but I was getting a bit antsy towards the end...funnily enough the next 10 minutes were full on suit time so I guess I'm happy. Some nice twists which I didn't find too predictable (+ Show Spoiler +
except pepper "dying", saw that one coming and the pay off was pretty cheesy, good fight sequence leading up to it, though

Watched the movie too, pretty solid. Just remember to stay through the credits for the usual teaser with DC movies.

Saw it today as well - pretty good, liked it better than the second one, but nothing incredibly amazing either.

No please don't that's a dick thing to do to theater people who have to clean the movie. Be a nice guy and go to www.youtube.com and watch it there

I'm not sure if TL has figured this out yet, but super hero movies kinda suck nowadays. They've been turned into cash cows with almost no originality. Yes they have some of the best graphics and visual effects out of any movies, but computer generated CGI has become extremely cheap and easy to produce in recent years. They are basically turning the genre into B-movies that are pathetically unoriginal at this point.

Also, there's a point in the trailer when hundreds of Iron Men fly up next to each other. I'd just like to point out that's completely stupid. The whole point of a super hero is to have unique abilities that are one of a kind. But if there's the possibility of multiple Iron Men, then what's the point?

You realise that every other iron man movie has had a second suit of some kind in it? As for that scene + Show Spoiler +
the suits are controlled by Tony's AI and will only let him fly them should he choose to.

All the suits where under the controll of Jarvis, But Tony has controlled alot of Suits by himself During the Five Nightmares Comic Arc when Stanes son was attacking several Stark plants at the same time. Then again this was when he was still using Extremis. Also it was nice to see the Hulk buster suit make an apperance in the movie

While I agree that superhero movies are most certainly cash cows, you seem to have a quite strict view on what a superhero is supposed to be... as for the bolded statement in your post:

What about Speedsters? You have "the" Flash (Barry Allen, Bart Allen, Sela Allen, every other member of the Allen-family, Wally West, ...), but you also have all the evil speedsters with basically the same skillset. You have Superman, Supergirl, Superboy, Superdog, Superhorse, Bizarro, Man of Steel, Man of Tomorrow, Metropolis Kid, Last Son of Kryption... Green Hulk, Red Hulk, She-Hulk, ... Wolverine, Sabretooth, X-23, ... And not last and definitely not least, you have the whole Green Lantern corps (and all the other color-coded Lanterns).

Long story short, I don't know what quality to expect from the new Iron Man movie. But the case of "multiple superhero" can hardly be called unprecedented.

Turned into? Nowadays?

What are you talking about, superhero movies have been cash cow borderline-B movies since their conception. I mean sure, the old batman and superman movies are classic, but it's still more or less the same deal.

Some people have difficulty enjoying movies for the sake of enjoying them. Everything has to have depth and character and purpose

I bet The Expendables was sucked as well for a lot of people

It was pretty hilarious.

The movie is pretty solid. The tone of the movie is more serious compared to the previous films.

I was very disappointed that the Mandarin as well as the "Extremis" concept was changed so much in the MCU. But I guess you have to make it someone more realistic and believable :<

Also... why did Tony remove the shrapnels T__T
