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.

    • Windows 11 KB5094126, KB5093998 bugging out Office apps but it may not be Microsoft's fault by Sayan Sen Microsoft last week released Windows 11 KB5094126 and KB5093998 as the latest Patch Tuesday updates. Following that the company also published the accompanying dynamic updates under KB5094149, KB5095971, and KB5094156. Although the tech giant did not acknowledge any major problems, some users online reported various issues ranging from OneDrive and Dropbox access problems, BitLocker recovery lockouts, to blue screens and BSODs. You can read about them in this dedicated piece. While there is still no confirmation about those problems from Microsoft the company has admitted to another bug which we did not report on. The tech giant has confirmed it has received reports of an issue in which certain third-party applications may be unable to launch Microsoft Office apps or open Office documents after installing the Patch Tuesday. This affects both Windows 11 as well as Windows 10. The company says the problem impacts a subset of applications that rely on OLE (Object Linking and Embedding) automation to communicate with Microsoft Office programs. According to Microsoft, affected scenarios involve third-party software attempting to open Office applications or documents from within their own interface. In such cases, the Office program may fail to launch altogether, or the requested document may not open. Oddly there may not be any error message, which probably makes the issue difficult to diagnose. The bug affects several Office products, including Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access, and other apps in the Microsoft Office suite when they are launched through the affected software. These include tax and accounting software such as CCH Engagement and Workpaper Manager, dental practice management solutions like Dentrix and Softdent, as well as the popular research and reference management tool Zotero. Microsoft adds that other applications using similar Office integration methods could also experience the same problematic behavior. To understand the issue it is important to look at OLE, the Microsoft technology involved. OLE allows different applications to work together and share data, while its Automation feature lets one program control another. Thus this enables third-party software to launch Microsoft Office apps, open documents, and perform tasks automatically without requiring users to switch between programs. Because many accounting, healthcare, research, and business applications rely on OLE automation to interact with Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and other Office apps, any disruption can break those workflows. As a result, affected software may be unable to open Office documents or launch Office applications even though the programs themselves continue to work normally. At the moment the company has not provided a permanent fix though it has confirmed that engineers are actively working on a resolution, which will be delivered through a future Windows update. As such additional details will be shared once more information becomes available. In the meantime, Microsoft recommends a simple workaround for affected users whic is to open the Office application or document directly rather than launching it through the third-party program. For enterprise customers and organizations managing larger deployments, Microsoft says an additional mitigation is available. Admins experiencing the problem on their managed devices are advised to contact Microsoft Support for business to obtain and apply the workaround.
