Oh, okay I guess I can see what they were talking about, and how they can think it looks like a skull, but I think there imagination might be getting the better of them. I mean if you are looking at something hard enough images kind of just appear, like they did for me when I was looking for a skull I found it in the same image in a different way. It's the whole psychological Ink Blot thing where people can make something out of nothing. Maybe not though, because once again I can see some resemblence. I guess we will see.

Man, I love that. I wonder who he's actually saying to though? Perhaps the ten ring followers?

Yeah. Mandarin sounds so Cool here.

Long hair; shades; greasy looking rags; cane.....leaning against a wall in a back alley. Male? Female? Hard to tell.

Mandarin's "you'll never see me coming" V.O. is playing in the background; makes me think that's Kingsley himself in a blind homeless person disguise....

If the rumors are true, I'm thinking it might be Hansen.

I think what was meant by the "if the rumors are true" comment, is that

Spoiler!!! Click to Read!:

Maya Hansen might be playing both sides or appearing to be a friend of Tony and actually be a Villian.

Surfer

[protocida]

Also, the person doesn't appear to be all too well.

Hansen supposedly injects Extremis in herself to be worthy of Tony, and when he rejects her, she disables all Extremis-related technology and messes herself up in the process.

Here's a snapshot. I guess its Maya. On second thought, it kind of looks like a dude. lol. I can't tell.

[TheIrishAvenger]

I brought that clip up already.

Here's a brightened version of the screencap.

[Crimson King]

Looks like a guy to me. I'm guessing it's Coldblood or Firepower before Extremis.

[thalidomide]

It's Kurt Cobain!

[A Necessary Evil]

Film version of Mallen? Idk. Has the same hairstyle as

Spoiler!!! Click to Read!:

Maya, and she looks ill. Maybe the rumors are true about her taking extremis herself.

was he resurrected using Extremis somehow? Does that mean Courtney Love will be in this movie?! If so then the MCU is doomed!!

[Mako]

Looks like Killian to me.

I circled and outlined the skull to show what I meant:



And again, I'm not suggesting that, even if I'm right, it amounts to anything more than just an easter egg. We know Marvel Studios owns Punisher's movie rights; it would just be nice to see a wink and a nod to let us know that Frank *is* alive and well in the MCU somewhere. And Frank seems like the kind of guy that a kind of guy like Mandarin could idolize. Or satirize. Or both.

Also, apropos of nothing: there's oil derricks on those bottom circles.

Thanks for the higher resolution.
Yeah, up close, it definitely looks like a (flat-chested?) girl trying to disguise herself as Kurt Cobain. Well, not Kurt literally; but some street bum.

My guess is that it's Szostak or Hall, in the full employ of AIM/Ten Rings, and they're getting ready to blow up Grauman's Chinese Theater.

*EDIT: Notice the big honking ring on his/her finger. Dead giveaway.

I think he looks like Guy Pearce too. He is also wearing glasses and carring a cane. Maybe a flashback scene?

[Son of Coul]

Looked like Szostak to me. Little like Pearce too I guess.

[cherokeesam]

Looking again:

definitely Rebecca Hall there, in disguise.
Take a look at the nose, in particular. And lips.

[ctsketch]

I'd hesitate to say definitely

[ctsketch]

Killian also wears a big honking ring in this movie...

Yeah, a nod to the Punisher would be cool, so don't get me wrong. I am simply saying, that I think as fans we often can examine things to the point where we can start to visualize and interpret something as what we want to see instead of what is actually there. May not be the case in this instance, but I guess time will tell.

looks like an adam's apple to me... and the punisher reference is about as out there as Loki'D's stuff at times...
