If it's crap ... We'll tell you

Shane Black's 'Iron Man 3' will not only kick off the 2013 summer superhero season, but it is also the first post-'Avengers' outing for the members of that blockbuster unit. The anticipation is understandably quite high. If you find that the just over two month wait for 'Iron Man 3's release is too excruciating to bear, have no fear. Today, the internet provides a little something to whet your appetite. Fifteen minutes of the film were screened for Empire Magazine who wrote up the plot details that were revealed in those fifteen minutes. These details are spoilery so if you'd rather go into the movie blind, DO NOT READ ANY FURTHER!
"The scene ends with Stark, bloodied and dazed, flying away not entirely in control of his malfunctioning prototype. He lands hundreds of miles away in a snowy field, where, out of power, he can't get in touch with Pepper. Or Rhodey. Or The Avengers, neatly sidestepping that question. Breaking into a deserted-looking garage, the tone then zigzags again as Tony is startled by a ten year-old kid, Harley (Ty Simpkins) sparking what [Drew] Pearce calls the film's 'sci-fi Capra' phase. Extremis is a scientific program invented by Hansen and abused by the Mandarin and his right-hand man, Guy Pearce's slimy Aldrich Killian. It rewrites the operating system of the body, upgrading strength, speed and durability to the very zenith of human possibility."
So yes, spoilery, but given the fact that they are encapsulating only fifteen minutes, it's not as if the entire movie was just served up on a silver platter. I do like that they mention Tony's attempt to contact The Avengers when in trouble, but only after he can't reach Pepper and Rhodey. This demonstrates the continuing commitment to not only unify the filmic Marvel universe, but also stay true to the individual characters. At this point, there's no reason Stark would be completely trusting of the rest of the Avengers team nor would his ego allow him to call them for help unless he were in dire straights, and even then only after he had exhausted his other options. The source described the relationship between Stark and the kid who discovers him in the garage as a bawdier version of something we might see in a Steven Spielberg movie. I guess that makes Iron Man the E.T. in the shed. I didn't feel like these details ruined the movie for me, but I am always reticent to post plot breakdowns if only because that means I do have to read them and, given my druthers, I would prefer to go into a movie completely blind.
What do you guys think? Did you find these details interesting? Enlightening? Any revealed diversions from the 'Extremis' comic that have you concerned?

Comment by Mr Rimmer on February 28, 2013 at 5:59am You say that "Iron Man can easily best someone with peak human capabilities(Capt. America)" but didnt we see them both fighting in avengers and both getting knocked the f out?
human possibility?
I could've sworn the guy in the comic arc had fire breath & strength. Iron Man can easily best someone with peak human capabilities(Capt. America) I'm hoping it's truly super steroids.....although having something like what Captain America has could give someone an edge when piloting an armor suit like Stark's. Whereas Stark is an average 35-40ish guy just wearing a high tech suit of armor, and this version of Extremis makes you Olympian apparently....

Comment by VinnyLT on February 27, 2013 at 12:21pm Maybe we get to see Pepper in the rescue armor he builds for her in the books.
Comment by GizmoRyda on February 27, 2013 at 8:39am I'll probably forget this by the time the movie comes out
Comment by Colin Bright on February 27, 2013 at 5:20am I hope the prototype armor they are referring to and has been show cased alot isn't his "ultimate" suit for this movie. Its kinda ugly looking. The red-gold ratio is all goofed up. Its not even right to say its gold colored, its like that crappy metallic beige color that lame people buy lame cars in.
Comment by exit-man on February 27, 2013 at 3:11am its a fact that kid characters in action movies completely ruin them! there are only a handful I can think of where the kid character didn't bring down the films they were in but children suck in action movies

Comment by Boatloads1017 on February 26, 2013 at 5:53pm @Trent Technically movie trailers have been doing that long before Spill began reporting news.
