I'm a little bummed that the employee screening is only a day before the opening. Usually we get screenings a week or so in advance. I guess AMC/Disney contract delayed it. Lame.

Probably sensitive of pirates getting CAMS out.

Interesting. I'd heard the rumors, but I really didn't think we'd be seeing Pepper in the suit... LOL

Pepper in a suit is a GIVEN - just due to continuity reasons.

BOTH the Hogans (remember, Pepper is Happy Hogan's ex, though she kept using her maiden name professionally) figured prominently in the Armor Wars story arc. The ONLY change is Rhodey's place in the continuity - in the original, War Machine had NOT been created yet (though AW was one event that led to the creation of the War Machine armor). Basically, what's happened is that AW is now post-War Machine, instead of pre-War Machine.

Don't forget Rhodey is never Iron Patriot, it was Norman Osborne. So I'd say continuity wise.. that is also different.

Interesting. I never really followed the Iron Man books, so I don't know most of those stories or the continuity of it all. I didn't know she was ever in the suit. :) Thanks for the clarification.

Just came back from a 3d (not my choice, would rather see 2d) showing. Absolutely loved it.

That is all.

Pepper in a suit does indeed rock. Shes pretty bad ass near the end too.

Although the end credit "teaser" did nothing to excite me in comparison to previous ones.

I am the opposite, really disappointed in it :/

What didn't you like about it? I loved it, lol.

I just thought the story was really weak, considering that the trailers built it up to be amazing. In my opinion its the weakest out of all the Marvel movies

Can you spoiler tag what the end teaser scene is?

It starts with a close shot of Tony Stark on a couch talking about his various traumas, obviously he?s talking to someone, as if he was seeing a shrink, the tone of the scene is light and supposedly funny. Then we discover that the person he?s talking to is Bruce Banner/Mark Ruffalo, who fell asleep because of Tony?s boring story. Tony remarks that Banner has been sleeping during the most part of his story and yells at him, and Banner just mumbles and says ?You know, I?m not that kind of doctor!? Then Tony recalls another memory and resumes his monologue, and then we see Banner starting to fall asleep again

Then after that the scene, the last credit said 'Tony Stark will return'.

I really don't think those two are mutually exclusive.

Yeah, let's be honest. It's easier to bring Iron Man back at this point than Tony Stark... LOL Not that I don't want Robert Downey Jr. in it because he's just great. But Iron Man is easier for them to do if he doesn't want to come back. Hopefully they'll get that all worked out though, because I can't imagine these movies without him.

      Hello, I have used a few TEAM Group SSDs, USB flash drives, and Micro SDXC cards in the past. They all seemed to work fine. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky

      "just $100 per TB"? Just? Are we trying to make this seem like the new normal? Kinda weird to make it sound like that is not a ridiculously expensive asking price.

      The reviews you refer to mean nothing. Where there is no journalism there is no reason to call the gaming media's opinion pieces "reviews". For GP games there is indeed a metric for success - increasing subscriptions. Which turns in revenue. The only circumstance in which subs do not rise when great is being released is a Game Pass system where the company is close to fully saturated with customers in a subscription. However, in that case as the theory goes you spend aplenty in all kind of games - from shady live service cash cows and customer offending agitprop crap in purple colours to robust and entertaining single player games. And keep a solid level of profitability. Ignoring the simply innocuous but mid games MGS has released primarily of the second kind.
    • Report: Microsoft to use AWS to help GitHub deal with a major surge in demand

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      Report: Microsoft to use AWS to help GitHub deal with a major surge in demand by Pradeep Viswanathan Thanks to the surge of coding AI agents, GitHub's usage has skyrocketed over the past 12 months. To meet this demand, GitHub started with a plan in October 2025 to increase capacity by 10x. However, by early this year, the company realized that it needed 30x scale. This rapid growth has caused severe strain on the platform's reliability, resulting in several small outages over the past few months. In April, GitHub published a long blog post explaining the steps it is taking to resolve these reliability issues. In the post, the company also confirmed that it is working toward a multi-cloud architecture for better resilience. Today, Business Insider reported that GitHub is turning to Amazon Web Services to help deal with a major surge in AI-driven coding activity. It is important to note that GitHub is still in the process of moving completely to the Azure cloud. The current plan is to move the platform fully to Azure by 2027 so that it can scale better as per developer demand. Therefore, the current decision to utilize AWS might be part of a short-term plan to meet immediate demand. A Microsoft spokesperson confirmed that GitHub is using multiple cloud providers with the following statement: For Microsoft, the decision highlights the operational pressure behind the AI boom. GitHub has to stay reliable for developers at a time when rivals such as Codex, Cursor, Claude Code, and other AI coding tools are gaining attention. And the decision to use AWS for computing capacity seems practical given the circumstances.
