evila_elfStill trying to get my thoughts in order, as I am still in a state of EEEEEE over it lol
There was so much content in the movie that it seemed way longer than 2:15, yet it didn't drag at all. If I had the time, I would have turned right around and went to see it again.
Thoughts, in no particular order:
--About half way through, I was thinking that it felt more like a movie staring Tony Stark than Iron Man, since he didn't have his suits with him. No complaints at all.
--The little boy was awesome. And it was hilarious to see Tony treat him just like he would anyone else.
--The news van fanboy. As soon as he greeted Tony, I laughed until I was crying.
--Pepper was awesome (though she did do the in peril 'Tony!' scream a couple times too many). But what was up with the ending? He cured her? But but....she was being all awesome and saving Tony's butt for a change! I know it probably wouldn't work for the future to have her as a superhero, but that could have been dealt with in a few lines in Avengers 2 or Iron Man 4 (fingers crossed there is one).
--When Pepper fell, the whole audience gasped, and a little 7-year-old called out "She's dead! :(" Had me fooled for a few minutes.
--Loved the way the villain was handled. At first, I thought it was an act, but I am glad it wasn't. So funny!
--Rebecca Hall ♥
--Bruce at the end! I didn't recognize him at first (sorry, I really liked the other guy that was in The Hulk, so I remember him more).
--I think this was the best Iron Man movie.
--EEEEE!
--Normally something I love this much I would be all over it for fanfiction, but the movie was satisfying enough, for now. (Unless there are any super angsty fics involving Tony ;) )
--So much more to squee about, but I need to go to bed lol.

Date: 2013-05-13 08:09 pm (UTC)I also loved the boy; often ids can be so annoying, but here they did everything right. And I also had no problems with more Tony and less suits (and I mean, the end battle had a LOT of suits, so this should make for the lack of them before), but it seems some fans didn't like it that much. *shrugs*
I think he cured Pepper because it was something that Pepper hadn't wanted. Of course she was totally awesome as a superhero, but after killing Killian she looked terrified and lost. It was a bit rushed there at the end and perhaps they should've had another short scene where Tony and Pepper talk about it. But I think the whole Extremis thing was used more in the comics, so perhaps they'll use it for SHIELD or whatever.^^
