The important thing is that Iron Man 3's success should fast track Shane black's Doc Savage movie.
What!?!
A Doc Savage film!?!?!
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSS.
Ehhh, I'll get excited for when they make a good movie about The Shadow. I have a lot of misgivings about updating Doc Savage, and this article covers most of them.
1. I'm sorry, I feel a little cheated re: The Mandarin. I mean, I love what they did, but at the same time... I wanted the real Mandarin. I'm honestly torn about it.

2. Why no beekeeper suits??
Alrich Killian was pretty much identical to Fraction's scheming, plotting Mandarin except for race, obviously. Egotistical, profiteering, borderline insane with power.
And honestly I think Extremis-fueled brawling led to way better action scenes than the rings would have.

Oh, the Extremis brawling was great. I thought they pulled off the Extremis superpowers really well.
I appreciated the gag of the Mark 42 armor completely falling apart on impact every five to ten minutes. And I'm glad he pulled Dummy out of the ocean at the end
Regarding the Mandarin/Trevor...I don't really have any sort of lingering affection for the Mandarin as a character, and I really, really enjoyed their take on it here. God damn. There are so many moments in this where I was like, "okay yeah. YEAH." The daisy chain rescue from Air Force One. Don Cheadle saving the President. All the Iron Man suits flying out of the ruins of Stark's house. That super dumb armor with the piston hands that flipped the two extremis dudes at him so he could punch them in the face and then some other armor comes flying in and launches them. Pepper beating the shit out of Guy Pearce. Guy Pearce breathing fire.

The best thing about the firebreathing was that before that its Rhodey praying the suit doesn't open and then he does and he's like "fine, whatever lets do this" jumps out starts beating the shit out of people and then he breaths fire and Rhodey just looks at him like "OH COME ON".
the blonde who burns Rhodey out of his Iron Patriot armor.
What
why would a rogue soldier that is part of a terrorist plot to kill the president and is also a walking timebomb be Carol Danvers?
There's no logic to it other than "she's blonde".

AKA, SHIELD double agent. Which explains the lack of Nick Fury/Avengers.
Double agents need to be in contact with their superiors so when they need assistance in the field they won't end up dead. SHIELD would keep close tabs on her they're not incompetent enough to let their agents be sitting ducks.

Still need to wait for EW's full announcement of this tomorrow, as I'd like to see Fiege's actual statement before I start hopping up and down.
... wait, is there another?
Enjoy!
I only have two little nerd quibbles

Is it at the very end, or partly through like Avengers?

Cumberbatch for some things, miniature american flags for others.

I absolutely loved it.
