lol@Extremis Xmas
It's not Iron Man 3: An Extremis Xmas.
Die Hard and DH2 were Xmas set summer films. I don't see this being an issue at all. It's not even the first summer superhero movie to do this. Batman Returns did it 20 years ago.
I kinda dig the idea. It adds just an extra pinch of personality to the film.

im thinkin the book is fairly different from the final movie. the few ive read have been at least
So...
[BLACKOUT]Both Killian and the Mandarin get away?[/BLACKOUT]
I was wondering about....Extremis. Does the book say whether it's a process that needs to be undergone once to be effective or is it necessary to "renew" it?
And in addition to this...
Is a "cure" for Extremis mentioned or some way to undo it?
And is Tony's use of Extremis in the film akin to that of the comic (ie he "rewrites" the Extremis programming for his own purposes and infects himself with it)?
AND ALSO, what powers does Tony get from using Extremis if he's already able to command his armor around telepathically?
Maybe being able to shut down the Extremis Virus is the cure
the most recent rumors say that [BLACKOUT]Maya deactivates Extremis. Including that injected within Tony.[/BLACKOUT]
Plot-wise, doesn't seem likely. They bring Tony in to interrogate him about a way to de-activate it. That is why Maya is working with Killian. Tony refuses to tell them how, partly because he forgot himself. That's why they went after him -- Maya doesn't know. They need Tony who doesn't negotiate with terrorists. So Maya knowing or Tony telling them doesn't fit with either character.
I have no doubt that there will be an Iron Man 4 and that it will display the Mandarin front and center in all of his glory and he actually goes toe-to-toe with Tony Stark. I would imagine Mandarin will probably have augmented his rings in some way to actually engage with Iron Man physically by that point...
