RichWS Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Hmm, I thought Avengers and IM3 worked because they tried to break the mold and subert formula and expectations. Maybe I just saw a different film.And yes, Rebecca Hall is lovely and not given enough to do here. We have to discuss this film in a certain podcast. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolioD1 Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Wouldn't it have been way cooler if Rebecca Hall was the villain who was running shit in the end? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gopher Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Would've been funny if they kept changing Tony's villain. It's the Mandarin! It's... Killian! It's... Rebecca Hall! It's... Don Cheadle? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockNrollaDIM Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Other question I kept thinking. What the fuck is wrong with Pepper that she'd keep going back to this guy? He's nearly gotten her killed 30 times now. Yet after each near death experience and getting injected with firesteroids her biggest concern is Tony. Dafuq? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hatebox Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 (edited) About TA... Lol you nolanites can't simply believe the fact a fun light hearted film can be well liked... Everything has to be dark and tedious and cynical. It appears you do not understand people like both when they are both well done! Change the record - you're like Joseph McCarthy, seeing commies Nolanites where there aren't any. Marvel does what it does well. But I think the amount of money blockbusters make right now belies the fact that they're stuck in one of the biggest creative ruts ever. Big movies are getting bigger and fewer, so the desire to take risks goes straight out the window. And the increasing weight towards OS box office all but guarantees they'll be neutered further still.

She wa sbarely in the movie to care when she supposedly died and the romance just doesn`t work. It`s a boring relationship, so much so the writers know that and try to keep them apart a smuch as possible. They were great boss/secretary pairing in the first but the hook-up is a snooze.

Gotta agree with you Fish, I just don't see them as a couple. They worked better as friends IMO. And with Tony neck-deep in the superhero business, being in dangers more often than not, I don't feel like they would work long-term. The relationship is kinda skewed, with Pepper being the one constantly on edge worrying while Tony just does whatever the hell he pleases Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishstick Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 There` s nothing sexy about them. They have a good friends/bro&sis chemistry but don`t feel like hot couple at all. I`ve seen siblings with more hot couple chemistry than these two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been accused of being a Nolanite so many times, it's ridiculous. I like Nolan and prefer his style but nowhere near on the level of looniness of the majority of the forum. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
