The fact this movie is causing such nerd rage, makes it the best movie of the year.

Such petty ****ing crap.

 

[The Josh]

Yeah, this guy was very pissed off wen he wrote that

I just can't get the mental image of a grown man on the floor stomping his feet while writing this.

 

[jye4ever]

I also believe Killian was poorly developed, big time.

 

[CelticPredator]

I don't think so. He was a fine villain. You knew his motivations from the start. You don't need to be indepth with the villains all the time. Sometimes it's just better to focus on the hero. Who's more important.

He should have been developed more. That I agree with. One thing in that article is it talks about Killian wearing a suit. Yeah, he wore a suit when tony had jarvis put the Mark 42 on him and blow it up. He didn't wear the darn thing and fly around.

 

[CelticPredator]

Killian didn't want to take over the world. He wanted to be bigger and better then Tony Stark ever was. That's it. It was pretty clear, as he said it up front.

Darkmatter's not gonna like it

It is very hatish though and not all correct

He hit the nail in the head (on most of his points) if you ask me. Lot's of people check that website so I'm happy to see these opinions being more mainstream rather than the mindless praise we got so far.

What's upsetting is that, when people have legit concerns or criticism about the movie, they can't openly say it without being being called a nerd, or fanboy or some other crap. What an abhorrent behavior.

The article writer Kinda reminds me of the Alex Jones interview on Piers Morgan. He had some good logical points but came across as a nutcase

 

[FLOSI]

It's weird that those here who like it least have seen it the most times.

Me, I didn't hate it... it's just meh. I was disappointed but overall entertained. But I have zero desire to see it again anytime soon.

Yeah, I don't hate it at all... Just disapointed.

It's on a website called "comic book movie.com". Everything he said is fanboy nerd crap rage. Plus, it's just written like on the fly angry rant. I could see him getting red as he pounded the keyboards.

****CKCHBESBVahfhkbdv v frgjha befd g√†nfiuafhjesb©jhf

Was probably the first draft of that "article".

He could make some good points. If he took the time to write a intelligent article. But he didn't. So I laugh at him.

I understand that. I have no quarrels with you folk.

The fact this movie is causing such nerd rage, makes it the best movie of the year.

Such petty ****ing crap.

Here are the 10 reasons he said IM3 was crap. I will highlight the ones I agree with and put my thoughts in red. Now if it was just one problem I had with the film I would say that that is being "Petty"

However when so many have issues with the same thing (even though you don't agree) is not being petty. It's like me saying "all you guys who liked IM3 are just very, very, very, very, easy to please"


1. Plot Holes
Had tons of them, basically the movie would say one thing and do the opposite later on. Yep TONS of them!!

2. Tony Stark The *****
As someone else said, douche bag Shane Black made Iron Man a *****. For another character I get it. Tony Stark is swag though. Tony Stark would get PTSD and have panic attacks from a battle in New York.
I have said it so many times already that I wont repeat it again but IM proved himself in the Avengers and already had enough Near Death Moments that all the reasons for his characters issue just don't add up.

3. This Wasn't An Iron Man Movie
Tony Stark barely wore the suit. He used a gun in some scenes. His character was more like a spy/detective throughout the movie than a super hero. There was no ACDC Black Sabbath music in this movie at all, just Blue da da bee. Again Black and his ego in trying to take things in another direction tried to turn a sci-fi super hero movie into a cop/spy action film.

I don't agree with most of what he said ACDC music etc.. But I feel when I go see a film called Iron Man there should be more Iron Man

4. Remote Controlled Iron Man Suits Without Tony In Them
Seriously?

Really ruins the emotional impact of the Air Force one scene. Again something else that will be no fun with a second viewing.

5. No Character Development
Black was so busy spending half the money setting up his mockery of the Mandarin that he failed to develop Killian's character at all. Ok, So he used to be crippled and Tony Stark dissed him once. That's his reasoning for wanting to take over the world? If you are going to have a guy do what he did how about just a little back story or reason for his actions so I can give a *beep* about him one way or the other. Also, Maya Hanson, literally ZERO character development, has an important part in the movie and then is killed for no reason with no explanation.

If the Killian character was cool and well thought out then I could have excepted the Mandarin switch a little better. Maya Hanson?? So Killian needed her alive or not. I thought her character needed to live or the others would die. I don't know. But either way she was useless

6. Fifty Iron Man suits At The End
Not was it just stupid, but why is it that Tony's mansion and all of his stuff is destroyed, he ends with the kid in Tennessee and Jarvis back on line, and doesn't deploy one of the 500 suits the 20 times he needed one before the end battle?
I would have liked this if Tony was in one of the suits.

7. Rhodey Couldn't Wear A Suit
So they can only go on Tony, but one goes on Killian and Pepper about 10 minutes later which leads to Killian's death. Also, if Tony was just messing with Rhody as I have seen some say, why would he when a suit would have made him (his best friend) much safer in the middle of a battle.

Never gave this much thought but I would put this up there with plot holes.

8. *beep* Story Lines
This movie was a *beep* with the story line when you think about it. It just jumped from one sub plot to another to another without sticking to a central focus, tightening up the loose ends, etc. Okay, So Tony's depressed, then he calls out the Mandarin, his house and life are basically destroyed. Then all of a sudden he's this pseudo father figure for some kid, and at the same time he becomes this detective Mcgyver like character. Then he finds the Mandarin who isn't the Mandarin, and some dude who Tony dissed is actually the Mandarin and does all of this *beep* without any real back story or explanation.

While I agree with some of this the writer is just all over the place and does sound "petty" here

9. No Direction For The Iron Man Franchise
You could literally not watch this movie and miss nothing that you need to know to watch anything in the Marvel universe before or after this movie. I realize the last few Marvel movies were directly building up to the Avengers and this was the first post avengers marvel movie but this movie simply felt nothing like marvel movie with no place or point to anything and the movie ended with more questions than answers as it relates to that.



10. This Movie Was Not What We Were Led To Believe Forget the Mandarin not being the Mandarin. We were led to believe that Tony was about to face someone who made everything personal for him. Someone who was so smart, and bad, and crushed his spirit at it's very fibre. Remember the quote in the one trailer that went something like "I will either let you die with dignity or live in shame" (which was never in the movie by the way, nor were the Mandarin's 10 rings which were showed in the trailer)? The lack of story line and character development which I mentioned above never made anything done to Tony make any sense, unless you think dissing a guy who has an idea 13 years ago is reason enough to take his life away from him and try to take over the world.

This was my point about the trailer how the trailer looked so good and yes while I don't like when trailers give away everything I felt the trailer was the better movie. Even at only two minutes.

Yet you call most of the praise from anyone of us that like it mindless. Interesting.

Exactly. Who the **** saw this movie for Guy Pearce? He was a Bond villain.

 

[JAWS]

I understand that. I have no quarrels with you folk.

You should have no quarrels with those who flat out hate it. I have no quarrel with you I love the debate and to talk film. It's fun. Sure I think your nuts for not seeing all the problems with this film but it's fine that you like it. I just don't see calling those who don't like it CB nerds. As I have said, I know nothing about the IM comics really. But I know film and I know what I like. That does not mean my opinion is better or more valid then yours but it is just as valid and so are others who love or hate this film for whatever reason.

Good point in the fact that those who love it love it. Does not mean they are mindless just as it does not mean that those who hate it were "CB nerds" or just "didn't get it" or "don't know how to just enjoy a film"
