Hasn't every Iron Man movie basically been a "Suit War" movie?

Also, was that supposed to be Ben Kingsley or Guy Pearce giving the bad guy voiceover? Because it didn't really sound like either of their normal voices, and I'm down for this movie solely* based off how "turrerist" and "teach-errr" were pronounced.

*Just joshing, I was in based solely off of Shane Black being the writer/director.

So, hey! Iron Man 3, coming April!!!
I think they're mashing a lot of stuff together now.
"Dark Reign" because of Iron Patriot-like War Machine. Possibly "Suit Wars", but I don't think so based on the trailer. And then there's the "Extremis" arc, on account of the "snap-on" armor and the remote control thing.

Several Extremis characters are also being played, so that's pretty much guaranteed.

Hmm... now that I think about it, "Suit Wars" was Iron Man 2.
Whiplash using the Arc Reactor technology to create his own "suit", barebones as it was, and the Hammer Drones (though one may argue about the drones. I feel it fits though).
Add in a little bit of very, very watered down "Demon" and we're done.

Continue with your ideas, iron man is interested!



Talking about extremis.... you guys think they could go that route? I mean... the nano machine suit. It's interesting o the point that he would no longer require to have the suit nearby to step up, but on the other hand, it's a one way road...

Maybe for Avengers 2? If that's the last Iron Man appearance on film...

Well, clearly Ben Kingsley is not East Asian (he's from India, right?) and looks pretty white, so that's similar, but that's only part of the story. He's also spouting random political stuff and has an Anarchy tattoo on his neck. I'm pretty sure in the comics Mandarin, much like comic Bane, could give two shits about politics, he just wanted to conquer the world. So I'm assuming the plot now has political stuff in it like TDKR. Also, he has a funny voice and speaks in odd cadences, like Bane.

So that's what I mean by Bane-ification.

I think they are avoiding the traditional yellow-peril Fu Manchu Mandarin for obvious reasons.

Hey, I'm just glad Mandarin wasn't GREEN like in that one cartoon.

And eff you Smarty, Yellow Peril is the most kickass of all old racial stereotypes. For one thing, they get to be smart.
