What jokes while she fought him? I can't recall a single one. If you're talking about all of the things he said to calm her down after the fact (as mentioned below, kudos A Necessary Evil), then that was for a reason, completely in character, and wasn't designed to make the villain the butt of any joke. If after four appearances on film, you still either don't expect this sort of thing from RDJ's Tony Stark or just can't come to grips with it, then I don't know what to tell you.
Your 'criticisms', and I use the term loosely, are far too embellished to be taken seriously. If you can't articulate your grievances well, don't resort to making things up to compensate.
You probably don't recall it because it never happened. Much like the telling of endless jokes and punchlines after she fell from the platform.
Totally ruining all these super serious moments. I can't wait to hear that tired platitude when Guardians hits.
Excellent post. None of the emotional moments (or for that matter... "criticisms") bothered me by a "joke that took away from the gravity of the situation." Yeah, IM3 was definitely the most comedy-based of the three, but it's moments were tender when necessary. What's next, "Tony's first panic attack was ruined because he cracked a joke that of all people to get on, he would? SO FAHNY."
Yeah, that was awful. Even worse was the "comic relief" of Thor and Malekith sliding down that office window or whatever it was.
Terrible. Just terrible. TDW was the first real disappointment from MS for me, though I did like it overall.
