The treatment of The Mandarin was definitely a problem for many, remember that controversy?

Personally I feel that Marvel missing out on building up a supervillain team.

The real problem with Iron Man 3 and the Mandarin was that they pulled off the twist so well, audience goers really were sucked in and no one likes being made to feel foolish or admit they were fooled. Even if that was the whole point, to essentially prank the audience.

Look at Dark Knight Rises and how everyone pretty much guessed the Talia twist before the movie came out. No one was upset, because no one was fooled.

True, it did prank the audience. I personally saw it as Marvel Studios taking the safe route and did the lazy way out with the character by making him another angry white dude.

As a side note, anyone here wish Iron Man 3 was the introduction of Ultron? Not as a villain, but like a introduction. Especially since Tony used those suits as a personal back up at the end.
