I went again last night but i still Don't know why the extremis agents wanted the file. Was it just to hide the evidence that the AIM had anything to do with her sons apparent suicide. If so why hadn't the mum read the file.

enjoyed it, didn't att feel one way or another about the twist but now after thinking of what could have been I do feel there could have been a better movie BUT anyway that's one issue I can overlook the one that I simply CAN NOT over look is the way in which the suits were portrayed in this film!
I get that the story was to show Tony overcoming his insecurities AND even that they wanted to perhaps make room for a bleeding edge armor BUT to undo 3 movies worth of displays of how powerful they are was simply bullshit!
To not once give these suits a real time to shine and to actually have "IRON MAN" totally defeated is an insult to the fans the previous films and to the title of the damn movie! it took super pepper to finally defeat Killian and if it wasn't for Tony being able to jump from suit to suit BUT never actually being "IRON MAN" he would have actually been killed.
As I was watching the film and laughed at joke after joke and put up with the MK42 basically looking like a joke its self I told myself it will all be worth it for a final payoff! but that never came!
Its as tho the writers cared SO little about the key to the IRON MAN world aka mech suits that they didn't feel giving the audience any time to see them as anything other than faulty tin foil forms of unreliable transport was worth it! did a complete IRON PATRIOT fight and capture scene get edited out?
I sure hope HULK or THOR dont run into any lava free running teams (that BTW looked so much like a stunt team flavor of the month for hire)
Could have been SO MUCH better if it only had balance as its stands its very much the TONY STARK movie ! entertaining yes ,better than IM2 in many ways no (not at all if IM2 just had a decent boss fight)

Watched it on Monday. Awesome movie, plenty of laughs and great visual effects. Never read any of the comics so i wouldn't know of any continuity errors or other problems with characters portrayed in the film. I noticed the only people saying negative things or picking apart IM3 are the Iron Man historians.
Just like all other superhero/comic book movies, these are made for the general public as viewers, not the hardcore comic readers. They have to be engaging, tell a story, and win the viewers over in less than 3 hours. The general public haven't been reading years and years of comics to know baddies backgrounds, or the hero's first love interest. If film companies made these movies to please the comic pro's, the movie would attract thousands of viewers not millions, and the would make less than a $1,000,000.
Man of Steel and The Wolverine also look awesome going by the trailers shown.

Better than #2, but that's about it. Way too jokey, seems like characters were just trying to one-up each other in a lot of scenes.
If the Mandarin twist happened to a character I cared about I'd be pissed, since I don't I liked it, but I sypmathise with actual Iron Man fans.
The PTSD was handled poorly and probably should have been more stublte. I'm being very neagtive but I liked more than I disliked, still an average film though.

That's basically how I felt about this movie, I enjoyed parts of it and many people I have spoken too outside of this forum tell me they loved it/thought it was amazing. Even my brother thought it was the best Iron Man film yet and we both dislike Iron Man 2, yet for some reason I wasn't as awe-inspired by this installment as I was the first. There's a part of me that wants to like it because it's Iron Man but then there's another part of me that wasn't really satisfied on personal level.Originally Posted by Gutsman Heavy

I feel the same way. I really want to like IM3 because I'm a fan of the series and characters, but something was lacking. There were a lot of awesome parts, and there were a few parts that I didn't agree with or thought meh. I know a little bit about the Mandarin from the cartoons. The twist, while funny, killed the movie a little bit for me.
But ultimately I think it was the lack of Tony Stark being in an Iron Man suit that made the movie a bit off. That Jarvis can step in and kick ass as the rest of the suits, sort of diminishes Tony Stark being Iron Man. And also because of how Killian was killed, it should have been Tony/Iron Man that took him out rather than Pepper.
Overall I enjoyed the movie, but I was a little disappointed at the same time.

Saw it last night, enjoyed it.
The kid in the garage was also an interesting concept -- the idea of another potential Tony Stark in the making (i.e. child prodigy), only that he lives in a fairly mundane setting raised by a single mum, whereas Tony was born with a silver spoon in his mouth and had all the best opportunities in life handed to him. So it was pretty sweet to see Tony kinda passing on the torch at the end when he pimped out that kid's shed.
The one thing that kinda bugged me was the surgery to remove the palladium shrapnel at the end... why didn't he get that done before?!? I thought the whole reason why he had the miniature arc generator in his chest was because the shrapnel was too close to his heart or whatever to remove. He was imprisoned with a doctor... and say even if that doctor lacked the resources to surgically remove it, why didn't he then have the procedure done when he returned to the United States? Especially in Iron Man 2 when the poison was spreading... weird.
Unless the procedure to remove it was only recently developed... but I don't recall the movie explaining that to the audience.

When he fixes Pepper back to normal he says that medical advancement has come along way...or something.Saw it last night, enjoyed it.

Now I know why the ending felt rushed, it was! After Robert Downey jr sprained his ankle, production was stopped for a few months while he recovered. So they had to finish it before the deadline.
For die hard IM fans, can you name me all 42 suits? Didn't seem like 42 on screen.
