And yes, your deliberate trolling is very clever/funny/cute.
I literally did the same exact thing that you did to me.

Hmmmm.......interesting. :gonf:
Nothing wrong with this at all.
Who cares what anyone thinks about IM3 why does it offend you so much when someone trashes it or anything Marvel related? Your opinion is the only thing that should matter to you.

Did you guys noticed that?
I love how Nolan's movies start. You know shit is about to go down when his movies start.

Why I prefer MoS to Iron Man 3:

1. The tone is more serious.
2. The musical score is far better.
3. The action scenes are some of the best I've ever seen.
4. Overall, I'd say the ensemble cast outperforms IM3.
5. The main villain isn't a sham.
6. The film doesn't have wounded amputee war veterans who willingly sell their souls to commit terrorist attacks upon innocent people in order to get their limbs back.

Why I prefer Iron Man to MoS:

1. The second best origin story told in a comic book film.
2. The direction and editing of story progression is much better.
3. The script is better.
4. RDJ was amazing.

Agree 1000000000% :D[/quote]




Yeah, smells like an agenda to me.

MOS Cinemascore A- amongst the general movie going public.

Critics think they're OPINION is better than everyone.

Elitist arrogant douche bags.....but wait....MOS was bad because it was a bit too dark, and it didn't have enough comedy and wasn't exactly like Donners old azz dated version. Lol

What a joke.

On first blush viewing I give it an 8.

Agreed. MOS was an 8/10 for me. I got choked up a bit also in scenes involving the Kents mainly.

TDKR had it's moments with Alfred mainly.

To be fair. MOS is an origin story and TDKR is not.

There's a hell of a lot more of mindless destruction in MoS, I agree.

And those who say MoS has much more substance than Three should try to relearn the definition of substance. And I'm not saying the other has much either.
