More Thoughts On IM3
Some more random thoughts on IM3. (If you missed it, my first post re: this movie is here.)
Pepper’s abs looks FANTASTIC. As did her Forbes cover. (Really sad I wasn’t able to read the headline.)
I liked that Rhodney had more to do and some serious moments of badass in this movie. And I actually believed that he and Tony were friends in a way I didn’t buy that actor as Rhodes in IM2. (WARMACHINEROXX.)
I thought that they did a great job with Maya in the context of Tony/Pepper – which was, of COURSE Tony had a one-night stand with her thirteen years ago and it really wasn’t an issue for Pepper, beyond being an aggravation of an existing fight. That said, I was not thrilled about Maya’s face-turn at the end. JUST LET HER BE A MORALLY-COMPOMISED, KIND OF EVIL LADY SCIENTIST, OKAY? I promise you, there are not enough of them running around.
I know that I said it in my last post, and I’m afraid I didn’t memorize any of the dialogue, but sweet jesus did I love the Tony/Pepper relationship. I love Tony was clearly committed to Pepper, I love that they both had a sense of humor about their relationship, even when they were at their wits end (or Pepper was 1000% done and packing bags), I love that neither Maya or Killian was an actual threat or presented as a threat (*cough* Natalie Rushman *cough*) to Tony and Pepper’s relationship. I also really love that despite Killian’s makeover, and despite Pepper’s interest in Killian’s tech, CEO Potts was clear in her refusal and didn’t engage with Killian’s attempt to manipulate her.

I LOVED that they lampshaded how fucking ridiculous the Iron Patriot armor was. Because seriously, it made Steve's outfit look... slightly less ridiculous.
