Iron Man 3

Yeah, that seems "I just got my ass kicked"

Good call, Didn't Tony have both removed and then the Arc put back in later, in the comics? ITs been awhile since I read them and can't recall now exactly

I haven't kept up but I don't think Tony in the main continuity of the comics has an arc in him. It was removed before he took Extremis, I can't imagine why he'd get it back. Unless they just wanted the comics to appeal to movie fans, which is absolutely possible (IE black Nick Fury showing up in the main continuity).

Here is a pretty good explanation of Mandarin's background...

Call me misinformed but wasn't Iron Man 3 supposed to be dealing with some viral Nano Tech, somewhere in China? Naughty Nano's taking over the Tony's Suits could be an issue for anyone...

potts to the rescue??

lol jk.....

my take on this is thats just the suit. tony and pepper get blown away, and the suit tries to come save them and loses its footing and gets dragged to the bottom of the ocean. thats y it looked the way it did.

when I posted this theory on facebook, it actually made sense when one of my friends also pointed out the part where the repulsor seems to be shot on accident like whoever is in the suit doesn't know how to use it. Also another thing that was pointed out was Tony saying "I hope I can protect the one thing I can't live without", and probably the way to do that is programming the armor to encase Pepper.


and BTW, it's Detroit Steel not Iron Patriot guys

Yeah, I can't remember where I remember that from lol. It had some thing to do with Tony shutting down extremis and needing the arc back (the one pepper had for rescue actually) geeze now I'm going to have to go back and reread some books, I really want to know if I just made up my own story or not haha

tigerblood, who is that in your avatar? is that you?

the plane scene (air force one). i think it got hijacked. if you look closely, the suit, with or without tony in it, punches through the side and fires its repulsor at a guy. also iron patriot is on the plane attacking someone...

 

[Mark VIII]

nooo the suits!!!

That scene makes it pretty clear that it was not an attack destroying the suits, but like a self destruct. The explosions come from within the cases, not from outside.

Marvel/Disney having trademarked "Iron Patriot" disagrees. Citation needed.

I worded it wrong, it's hard to put it in words. You're right, not exactly a look of triumph, but he has this appearance of accomplishing something, I guess you could say. I don't know, it's all based on opinion I suppose.

Well, Tony is sporting an injured hand through most of the trailer...

But on the other hand, the snowy environment looks like where he's dragging the suit, so maybe some kinda low-tech test gone wrong or something.

Well it certainly looks darker, I'm just on the edge of my seat. I really want to see more. You come to think of these heros to be invulnerable, invincible, and untouchable. But this movie demonstrates otherwise.
