Thank you. 3 reasons this movie pissed me off and why I hardly even want the toys that could have been..

1. IM3 was the biggest piss off I've ever experienced in Marvel movies mainly because they take the near Lex Luthor of bad guys for Tony, and make him a damm JOKE! I was beyond excited for the Mandarin to be in this movie and I was more than let down. Not only was he not in the movie, they mocked his entire character with some silly comedic one-liners and caused them to be unable to even reprise the role appropriately! I hate this more than I can say. In turn, I mayyyy want a new Mandarin so I can pretend he's nothing close to what they made him.

Quinten,
Don't be pissed off yet by this. The truth is, having seen the movie, is this may be a set up. Mandarin, as in Ben Kinsley, may actually be the Mandarin OR someone else. I mean think about it, how well would it fit if come Avengers 2 you find out that Kinsley was in fact the Mandarin and managed to get the VP arrested and his own replacement in the White House?
I wouldn't be surprised if Iron Man 3s Killian was nothing more than a patsy and a red herring for Mandarin as the terrorist group behind him has been around for 3 movies now. I don't believe Killian would have been the guy a bunch of Middle Eastern terrorists follow. As such, it would be a great twist to find out we were wrong all along. If that is case it might just restore your faith as the Mandarin would then have been the biggest bad guy on the block, pulling all the strings all along. Just a theory mind you but I don't think I am the only one with it.
