Let the records show that this journal post does contain spoilers.
Alright. Saw Iron Man 3. Awesome as exected, with lots of booms and fire. They also did pretty good in feeding you false data on the villian, even up to the Daily Show on Comedy Central. Yussir: Killian was the actual Mandarin. You already know this if you watched the movie. Don't get me wrong, him being the Mandarin was a nice twist and was unexpected. But that's the thing. It was UNEXPECTED. As well as make me babble like a fangirl, this movie drove the living crap outta me crazy. It almost made me a bit mad. Why? Well, lets look at the evidence here: I knew Killian was bad news from the start. I'm not sure where I know him from, but I knew from looking at the casting who he was, because he doesn't show up in ANY ads unless you look at the casting online. He was a scientist connected to the super soldier project. That didn't set well with me. If he was affiliated with that, than why on earth was he in 'Iron Man' and not 'Captain America?' Then, in the very beginning of the movie, he said he made the company known as AIM. Big red flag. He then showed Pepper (who by the way kicks ass, finally) a hologram of his brain. Another big red flag. Then, he could BREATHE FIRE. Another and another and another, red flags everywhere. I was jumping up and down in my seat because I KNEW who he was. The only problem was, I didn't. So, rundown: scientist, leader of AIM, obsessed with his brain, controls fire. Who did I describe?...

[link]THAT'S RIGHT! KILLIAN WAS SUPPOSE TO BE M.O.D.O.K.! NOT THE MANDARIN! M.O.D.O.K.!!! I swear, it's bugging the living crap outta me. M.O.D.O.K. (dang, that name is a pain to type) is the founder of AIM, and did experiments on himself to create the perfect intelligent organism. It sorta backfires and now he's a giant floating head. In this time, he also is able to use his head to shoot beams, just like the fire in the movie. COME ON! Killian HAS to be M.O.D.O.K.! Though, I'll admit, he was pretty badass as the Mandarin, but IT'S STILL NOT RIGHT! Once again, Stan Lee changes his own story lines to throw me off. Heck, the Mandarin didn't even have his rings, just the decoy. It's all screwed up, man... all screwed up...
Oh yes, and in case you haven't seen the movie yet, I apologize for disclosing this info, even though you are politely warned in the beginning. And BTW, yes, there is (or was) a clip at the end of the credits. If you haven't seen the movie, wait for it. It's hilarious. If you already have, you may have missed it. It's the one place you see Bruce Banner in the movie (which of course I was waiting for).

Cheers!
