Iron Man 3 was pretty good, enjoyed it more than 1/2. Have to say though, the most pointless character ever.

Mickey Rourkes parrot was more relevant.

How the hell is she pointless? She invented Extremis...without her, there is no film.

And the invention of this is a big plot point? No. It's piratically non-existent. Aldrich being rejected is the plot point. The movie could have quite happily not bothered to have her in it at all without even bothering who invented it and work just fine. She is a detriment to the movie as a whole.

Her death? Who gives a shit. That's right, nobody.

....nothing you just said disputes the fact that she isn't pointless. If she didn't invent Extremis and Aldrich did, but she was still in the film, THEN she'd be a pointless character...but that isn't how it was written, was it? No, instead she DID invent Extremis in the film, which means no matter how much screen time or actions during that time, her creation of Extremis (which created the super soldiers, which is the big threat to Tony, Potts...the whole damn plot) makes her character incredibly important. You are imaging a whole different film, one that maybe should have but DOESN'T exist...in the context of the film that actually came out, there is no argument you can give that proves she was pointless.

I watched that at least twenty times.

@BranKetra:

It was that good? I take it Bucky Barnes was in that one.

Yes. Without spoiling anything, I will say that it is an origin story like Iron Man and Thor are which leads to them all being in The Avengers. If you have read any Avengers comics, but you have not seen the 2012 film, you will already know some key facts to that team because it does not stray too far from canon.

But I just gave you a argument why shes pointless. Remove her, essentially the same movie and arguably a better movie. How many people do you think actually give a shit about that plot element you mentioned? I sure as **** don't.

She died in the movie?

I may need to watch Iron Man 3 again

SaintLeonidas is right. I'm just being bitter as **** about it like a angry 14 year old. Still, that character sucks.

Spiderman 2

ok, now this is very close at the top

Still a very tight race among the big 3

Iron Man (2008) - I have yet to watch Winter Soldier.
