Sarah Michelle Gellar!
Joshua Jackson!
Timothy Olyphant!

Did I miss someone? :D

I loved Iron Man 3. For me it's the best one of the three and I love the way Tony is now with himself, with Pepper and with the Iron Man part of himself. I've been (quietly) squeeing so much during the movie. Also? Pepper saving Tony due to the thing the bad guy did to her and because she's wearing part of the suit? *LOVES SO MUCH*

I never even realized they were in that. That is a crazy clip full of talent.

Also, because of the subject matter, I am having trouble NOT seeing it as some crazy Buffy/Justified/Fringe crossover.

Yeah... it was all awesome! Pepper was awesome. Tony was funny. Rhodey was awesome. I even liked the bad guy :)

And no, you didn't miss anyone :)

I must say, perhaps because you forewarned me, I didn't find it too confusing - I mostly tried to pay attention to everything in case it was relevant.

MCU as a tv-mini-series *faints* Yes, yes! *wants* We have it... I suppose, but still...

I love Pepper because as much as she is 'supposed' to fit the usual damsel in distress model, she doesn't. Not even close. I liked the underplay, subtly of their love and how its not in your face (0ther than giant bunnies) but just *there*. Real and awesome.

Tony is so out of his league with her :)

and don't forget SHIELD. It's Joss, and television, and the MCU, and the guy who played Gunn in Angel possibly playing Luke Cage and yeah, there is MORE than enough possible fangirling there. I am still not done fangirling over that ( ... )

I don't think there should be a limit of the amount of fangirling on anything :D The new SHIELD show sounds AWESOME... I'm just glad Joss is back on TV. But I do have a slight... slight... want. I want all the Avengers to make guest apperances at random intervals to annoy SHIELD. And LOTS the Natasha and Clint guest appearances....

LOL Shipping a ship. But I feel ya. It's refreshing to see a nice healthy-ish relationship in a comic book movie (let alone any movie), without it being this onesided crushfest and 'I don't know why you like him/her'.

I want to watch it again - and relish in the joy of Pepper and Tony. And I'd watch the Pepper movie too. Or maybe the Pepper episode of the Avengers tv show mini series.

Ooo, I need to go read your fic!! now!! *needs a pepper icon too*
