    • Trivia
      This is the first movie in the Iron Man franchise not to be directed by Jon Favreau, possibly over creative differences with Marvel or because of his salary demands. He later said that not directing allowed him to have more fun with his character "Happy" Hogan, saying that he was like "a proud grandfather, who doesn't have to change the nappies, but gets to play with the baby."
    • Goofs
      (at around 1h 22 mins) When Maya Hansen is threatening to inject herself with Extremis, she says the dosage is 1200cc. That is equal to 1.2 liters, a volume impossible to hold in one syringe.
    • Quotes

      [Tony sets a fire in the diner's kitchen to keep out Brandt, she just walks right through it]

      Tony Stark: You walked right into this one: I've dated hotter chicks than you.

      Brandt: [scoffs] Is that all you've got? A cheap trick and a cheesy one-liner?

      Tony Stark: Sweetheart, that could be the name of my autobiography.

      [Tony ducks out the back as his hidden booby-trap blows up the kitchen, killing Brandt]

    • Crazy credits

    Despite following the super-hero formula, this was a great movie.

    I can't say I am a huge fan of super hero movies and I watched Iron Man 3 thinking it might be a waste of time. In my opinion the Marvel movies are predictable, lean too heavy on special effects and are not relevant to everyday people. Despite all this, I completely enjoyed the film. Robert Downey Jr. is a perfect Iron Man and I hope Marvel never does a reboot with a different actor. I liked his weakness in the movie. I don't think people understand how difficult living with anxiety attacks is. I think Robert Downey Jr. portrayed that well in the film. Also, I loved the villains. The twist with The Mandarin character was quite amusing. Guy Pearce's Killian characters was also well done. I am happy Guy Pearce had the chance to showcase his talents in a major film. I would recommend this movie to anyone.
