So basically you just negated an entire movie. That’s what you’re saying here Pearce. Tony spent the entirety of IM2 dying, looking for a cure, enduring all kinds of fear and the surety of his body failing him again. Suffered through the trauma of hearing his father call him a ‘creation’ and once again not telling him he loved him so he could find a cure for the palladium poisoning just so in IM3 you could ‘cure’ him with electromagnets?! The very same electromagnets that he would have had lying around his workshop by the dozen in IM and IM2 . The same electromagnets that he HAS HAD IN HIS CHEST THE ENTIRE TIME. And then you don’t even bother to address how exactly removing the arc would have made his chest fucking cave in without reconstructive surgery?! I call bullshit and lazy, lazy writing. You had no clue who the character of Tony Stark was and you took the gig anyway.

I can almost forgive the way the movie plays as Lethal Weapon 10, I can forgive the twist, it is a very Mandarin thing to do, I applaud the way you addressed the anxiety issues, but I cannot forgive the way you took a hero who so many look up to, a hero who saved himself from kidnappers and a certain death with only the few rough tools he had and his own intellect and sheer tenacity and made him nothing. You took Tony Stark’s one true superpower, his intelligence, and made him look like an idiot.

Mandarin is Tony’s second greatest foe (imo) and you didn’t even let him have the killshot. Tony Stark would never, ever blow all his suits. He may dismantle them, but blow them up? With all the raw materials in those suits he could use again? Never. You did all this so Tony could have a’clean slate’? For what? That’s the whole point to Tony. He is a mess of contradiction and issues and he fights through them regardless.

By combining all the above and then having him remove the arc so casually, erasing all his movie history, you turned one of the strongest heroes in the comic world into a weak minded idiot who apparently has no clue about his medical condition or the contents of his own workshop and that, I will never, ever forgive.

THANK YOU.

(SERIOUSLY WHAT THE FUCK. I was willing to deal with the end of the movie while we were under the impression he had extremis, even though Tony Stark A) Without his reactor and B) without his suits is NOT IRONMAN ANYMORE, but now he doesn’t have extremis and the solution is something that could have been done all along?!

I have some collections of Marvel comics that include the first issues where the “Avengers” became a thing. And Tony Stark has his suits and needs the reactor for his heart. So now, what, we’re stripping that away, along with his intelligence apparently?

Oh, and I’m still pissed that he didn’t have Weapon Proficiency: Guns. THE MAN MADE WEAPONS ALL HIS LIFE. He should know the ins and outs of basic service weapons and how to use them!)
