All is not well in Stark's life, however: he has discovered that the palladium in the arc reactor keeping his heart beating has begun to poison his body, slowly killing him, and all attempts to find a substitute element have failed. Stark refuses, publicly shaming rival Justin Hammer in the process by highlighting his own failed attempts at recreating the technology. Stark is, however, still vilified by the United States government, and Senator Stern in particular, who demands that he hand his armor technology over for military application. Six months later, Stark has used his Iron Man armor to bring about a negotiated peace between the major super powers of the world, and his immense popularity with the general public is only furthered when he fulfills his father's dream by opening the " Stark Expo", to showcase all the latest inventions that will benefit the world. 3 Continuity and References to the Marvel Cinematic UniverseĪs Tony Stark reveals to the world that he is Iron Man, in Russia Anton Vanko died after telling his son Ivan to use what he had been taught.However, that was also a problematic character from the beginning, and a full-on adaptation of him would not go over well in the current cultural landscape. While Kingsley turned in a hilarious performance as Trevor Slattery, he's far from being one of the most intimidating or intelligent characters in the Iron Man trilogy. Fans of the comic wanted their version of The Mandarin brought to the screen, and it's hard to imagine them not being disappointed in the jokey aspect behind the on-screen rendition. As they said, "My only complaint with three is how they made the Mandarin into a joke other than that I really enjoyed them all." Another Redditor hops in to defend it, but then alex494 nails why it didn't fully stick the landing: "The twist is great, but they failed to follow it up with Killian being a truly good villain worthy of being 'the real Mandarin.'" Thedimlimlama apparently likes everything about the third film, save for the twist. Years ago, though, Redditors weren't thrilled. A more layered and modern version of the villain was brought to life by Tony Leung in one of the overall franchise's best performances. Iron Man 3's Mandarin twist is certainly less upsetting to MCU fans now that Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Ringshas been released.
