    Changing the manderin has nothing to do with tdk and we dont even know how he was before

    so a grounded gritty approach isn't similar to tdk when the last batch of marvel flims other than spiderman was on

    the high fantasy sci fi ? come on . So avengers was grounded , thor, captain america really thats news to me

    whats your definition of "grounded"?

    I did not know TDK created gritty. Ironman 3 looks like Ironman 1 with more action. LOL@ grounded when these are movies about fictional characters with impossible abilities.

    So War Machine is gonna be in there...........nice


    I also see they are laying out the groundwork now for the "Extremis" armor (if you don't know, research it yourself)


    We all gotta remember tho, this movie will also lay out the groundwork that will build up to Thanos......

    For superhero movies it did that's why you got all those reboots all of sudden don't be coy . Grounded in reality

    meaning even tho their doing amazing things it doesn't look cartoonish and its not campy

    Wonder if they're gonna go the route of the comics by having Iron Man hook up with The Guardians of the Galaxy, who incidentally have their own movie coming out.

    Makes sense if to do nothing else but pave the way for Thor 2 and the other Marvel movies to all come back full circle in Avengers 2 with Thanos as the villain.

    Looks Dark, Like that Shane Black who wrote Lethel Weapon, Last Boyscout and Long Kiss Goodnight is behind it. Also anyone saying this is biting "The Dark Knight", please, TDK bit Rocky III. The Hero getting beat up and coming back is not a new concept in film. Overall though I'm sorry I cannot take Hollywood seriously. Why are they STILL Whitewashing roles in 2012? The Mandarin is a Chinese character PERIOD? Ben Kingsley? Really? Yes he's a great actor but you aren't going to tell me in 2012 you couldn't find a Chinese or Asian actor to play the role? Cho yun fat? Ken Wantanbe? There are plenty of quality Asian actors out there. This would be like if in the new Wolverine movie they casted a white guy to play the Silver Samurai who's clearly a Japanese character. It's getting pathetic and sad. If "Last Airbender, Dragon ball and Prince of Perisa" wasn't enough. They whitewashed The Mandarin? Also even if the the character was written racist back in the day. You aren't going to write it the same way in 2012. It's a Chinese character, they aren't getting a pass from me on this:

    I'm not similar with Mandarin in the comics so I didn't know he's Chinese. It's just like Tom Cruise being in the last Samurai. It not really a big deal to me but I can understand comic-book heads getting ? at this. I thought they totally ? Bane up in Dark Knight Rises making him British and giving him no venom or pump up. Hollywood really doesn't give a ? about the material except for the box office earnings.

    Superman was not campy except for maybe Luthor, but Reeve as Superman was pretty grounded. Ironman is not a reboot lol. As I said before it looks like Ironman 1. Blade was not campy either although he is an anti hero. Robocop was gritty as well and it was way before TDK.

    They said it would be too much to explain Mandarin getting the rings from aliens and the magical powers they have would have to be all CGI

    Instead the 10 rings are a terrorist group and Mandarin is the leader, Sucks because Mandarin is the most well known Iron Man villain

    They are kinda biting the "misunderstood" terrorist angle of Bane...but it's not completely blatant. Man they ? up with not making the rings have special abilities. Doesn't and wouldn't be "magical" per se...sort of that pseudo-magic thing that Thor did so well. I was looking forward to seeing Fing Fang Foom on screen!!!

    And I agree with finding an Asian actor to play Mandarin. Krishna's my dude and all, but it has to be a slant that plays him.

    I'm not the biggest Ben kingsley fan, especially after "the wackness", but I like the approach he took to Mandarins voice.
