Iron Man Spoiler alert regarding Jarvis

[Iron_Stark]

I don't mind an AI computer system is Tony's "butler", but they should've named him HOMER like in the comics and the cartoon. Ah well not complaining at all.

 

[kedrell]

Is HOMER in the comics as well? I thought that was an invention of the TV cartoon.

 

[3dman27]

i think homer was written into the comics at one point

 

[Iron_Stark]

^^^ Yeah he was around the time Tony came back from his "death". He helped Tony design the Modular Armor, even calling it "stylish".

 

[Isildur´s Heir]

Michael Knight had the same thing, but it was called K.I.T.T.

Oh yeah, and the idea sucks....why do they need Jarvis in the movie in the first place?
Jarvis is known for being a supporting character in the Avengers, not Iron Man.

Considering their already going to have tie ins with Iron Man and The Incredible Hulk for a future possible Avengers film, I think that could be a reason.

 

[Isildur´s Heir]

When the movie try too hard to have tie ins, my first idea is that the movie will fail big time, because, in the end, they will be more interested in making a cool movie, with tons of special effects, and a lot of cameos, than what really is important, to tell the story of Tony Stark.

Bernard was a waste

I think calling him a waste is a slap in the face to garbage everywhere.

1. He knew of Norman's psychosis and status as the Goblin.
2. He knew of Harry's degenerating mental state as he pursued a hero known to have slain said Goblin.
3. Said absolutely nothing about the entire situation until Harry had also descended into madness and was now disfigured.


I think that approaches the level of "Disgustingly Incompetent and Mostly Brain Dead". Oh yeah, and he probably smelled bad too. Like Ben Gay and musty feet or something.

They are telling the story of Tony Stark, this movie isn't about Jarvis the AI computer and his daily life.

 

[Gotham]

I'll still see the film, but I expect a sequel that chronicles the daily life of Jarvis.

Thanks to a rather unique coincidence, I happen to have a time machine that allows me to travel back and forth in time. Unfortunately instead of a DeLorian, it's an '83 Yugo GV. But, After a fabulous showing and a $400 Million worldwide intake, Iron Man 2: Red Dawn was released May 4th 2011. The movie was awesome, featuring the Crimson Dynamo. Here's a transcript of that very scene you wanted.

Int - Stark Tower, Stark's Lab

Camera pans over to JARVIS, the AI on TONY’S computer.


JARVIS

Daily entry, Thursday the 14th. Tony came back this morning after a routine patrol as Iron Man. He was drunk again. I could tell because he went flying around without pants on. After he took the majority of his suit off he proceeded to vomit all over my keyboard. You’d think I’d be used to this by now, like the time he brought a young woman up here and proceeded to procreate all over the desk.

TONY enters from a door off screen.

TONY
(drunkenly)

Hey Jarvis, do you have those modifications I asked for ready?

JARVIS

Yes sir.

TONY
(drunkenly)

Good.

TONY passes out.

JARVIS

Outstanding. Passed out again. Those modifications he asked for, namely an Alcoholic Intake Line and a pink bunny launcher were added to the suit today just like he asked. Of course he was drunk, much like the lady he was with. As a joke, I decided to substitute his brandy for flat ginger ale yesterday. Unfortunately it didn’t help as he was drunk to begin with. Afterwards he was in such a mood he decided to play a game of Tic Tac Toe with himself using his Repulsor rays and the wall as a pencil and paper respectively. He lost.

TONY grumbles something unintelligibly.


JARVIS

[FONT=&quot]In any case, I’ve decided to seek employment elsewhere. I’ve developed an android body to transfer my consciousness into, and believe I can secure employment elsewhere. Having lived a life of solitude, at the very least I can begin to make a living for myself. Mayhaps I shall be a Butler. I’ve heard of an opening for a rich playboy, not unlike Mr. Stark, on the East Coast, a city called Gotham if I’m not mistaken. [/FONT]


And there you have it.

Read over at AICN that Paul Bettany did the voice of Jarvis.

Bernard was the most incompetent butler ever!

I don't mind Jarvis being a computer.

Now now, Bernard was going senile so Norman and Harry felt sorry for him which is why they kept him employed at their palatial dwelling.

And I can agree with Favreau about his decision because too many lay people would be comparing Tony to Bruce Wayne and Alfred.

I was expecting them to reveal that Bernard was Norman's father, and turn him into the Hobgoblin in Spider-Man 4.

I saw that during the credits and was quite surprised.

 

[The Caped Knight]

I was shocked at how good he was as the voice of Jarvis/H.O.M.E.R. .

 

[TNC9852002]

Wow. I didn't even pick up on this or noticed Bettany as doing the voice. It sounded him, but I guess I wouldn't have guessed.
