Spoiler: show

the Pepper "dying" scene lost almost all its effect for me knowing that she was being treated with the super soldier serum whose name is escaping me at the time

Spoiler: show

Did I miss something? She survived because she had extremis

Spoiler: show

extremis is the name I forgot. It's essentially a super soldier serum, no? Like satchel said, it made for a lame death scene

Spoiler: show

yea in the movie they made it a super soldier derivitive but i dont think anyone who was watching the movie thought she died as everyone realized she was injected with it.

some easter eggs

the chick who had extremis. her name in the movie ellen brandt (scar on cheek) was the wife of Man-thing, who was created by....AIM

the ball of metal in his lab is actually the formula one race car from IM2

Spoiler: show

which makes the death scene lame

created by henry pym. used his own brain imprints to give it AI. turns out it kept making itself better and better and wanted to show "father" how great he was so he set out to destroy his fathers "best" creation, the avengers

one of the rogue suits could have jarvis downloaded into it. jarvis is pissed that his creator decided to destroy all the suits. so he is hell bent on destroying the avengers. to show he has no allegiance to stark he changes his personality and voice to something of his own choosing

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

The party while wearing the Ironman suit

The brawl at the party with don cheadle

Basically everything with Don Cheadle (whom I usually love, just hated his character)

ScarJo

Nick Fury

The nonsense with the town plan model hiding the key to Ironman’s wellness

Overall just a huge piece of crap. I like the gadgets, the playboy lifestyle, and Sam Rockwell is always welcome. The attempts to build on the mythology of the character mostly fell flat.
