One of the best -isms we have as a people.
Whatever crazy fitness and nutrition routine she is on apparently works on some kind of level.
that would have been pretty fucking cool as well
A lot of the anger seems to come from it not being authentic to the character like that is the primary duty of the filmmakers. Meanwhile Movie Tony was very different from Comics Tony (and Comics Tony changed to reflect that) Whiplash was a weird hybrid of two different characters and Justin Hammer was an inept idiot.
Kingsley's fakeout was a wonderful surprise and was absolutely hilarious and Killian was a scheming evil mastermind right on par with the best Mandarin stories (of which there arent all that many) even if he isnt wearing any alien rings.
Steaaaaaaam
But even then a lot of Mandarin's appearances have been...pretty racially insensitive and even Fraction's take is basically a Kim Jong Il stereotype, even if it is an entertaining one.
The Mandarin we got is so unique from the traditional one that i dont consider it whitewashing, although I can see why and dont consider it unreasonable some would.

I loved that everyone in the Marvel universe was tripping balls over what had happened in Avengers. Makes it really feel like things happen in-universe even when we aren't watching.

Because 9% think it's too high, and shouldn't be cut! 9% of respondents could not fully
get their arms around the question. There should be another box you can check for, "I
have utterly no idea what you're talking about. Please, God, don't ask for my input."
It managed to be more awesome than a full suit.

"Heh, Kingsley is playing a middle eastern terrorist? And he's not even doing a good eastern accent for it? Heh. Sounds like just a generic menacing voice to me."
And them boom, bombshell. He's an actor.
And there were no actual terrorist attacks, just mishaps that Guy Pearce wanted to coverup and use as an excuse to get more business.
Like that is some subtle genius there. He didn't actually attack anyone, he was just turning a disadvantage into an advantage, a loss into a profit.
Up until the attack on Tony's house, it was a pretty passive plan.

And eh I think the henchmen we got worked perfectly

Spoiler I guess
Seeing the steel go molten and collapse just looked so fucking cool

I agree with this guy, but tracking seems like it's wildly inaccurate
Avatar had incredibly low tracking numbers, and, well
Yeah

The first is The Avengers.
Marvel Studios is killing it.

And I think they were less effective largely due to Extremis being super dangerous and Tony mass producing them.

The suits were weaker because they were prototypes that weren't fully armed. Most of them just had the repulsors, and the Unibeams only got fired once. Tony was so busy making a ton of suits that they just didn't have the same craftsmanship as the ones we saw in IM2 and Avengers.
Also bear in mind that the Extremis guys were craaaaazy powerful. God damn they are scary.
Thor 2 is gonna be the one to watch. Iron Man was a blockbuster franchise even before Avengers but if Marvel is able to turn all of the Avengers buzz to Thor and it is a smash hit(moreso than the original which was successful but not wildly so) then the sky is the limit.

If this had been solely off the heels of Iron Man 2, I would have been a lot less excited about this film in general
But as a follow-up to The Avengers, I was pumped

More so than the character of Thor, I think making Loki the villain in The Avengers was a smart move for drumming up interest in that particular brand

With the strong connections to Avengers and with having its trailer already in front of IM3 I'm sure it'll have an amazing opening weekend at least
Then it's up to the quality of the movie itself how well it continues to gross
