    Arthur Chu Retweeted MGKLab 2021

    Because of the fact that Iron Man was always a second-stringer before the MCU, I don't think people fully appreciate that the Robert Downey Jr version of Tony Stark is something they basically made uphttps://twitter.com/mightygodking/status/1290339919731335176 …

    What do you think is the best character innovation/modification done by a superhero movie? (For me it's Aquaman being Polynesian, which is obviously and eminently correct.)

        Yeah the details on paper were the same, arrogant billionaire playboy with daddy issues and alcohol issues and commitment issues, etc But the *personality* was absolutely new "Tony Snark"

        I mean from my POV it's kind of obvious that their actual most popular character, Spider-Man, was still languishing under Sony's control So they just said "Let's do a movie where Peter Parker is Iron Man instead"

        Which for a Marvel fan at the time sounds like a hilariously bad idea BUT IT WORKED It worked so well Somehow all this snarky bitchy angsty scrappy teenager energy transplanted into a middle-aged billionaire struck a deep chord with America

        To the point where they took it full circle, when they got the Spider-Man rights back and could have an actual Peter Parker in the movies he's just Iron-Lad He's defined by worshiping Tony and being in his shadow

        yep. RDJ’s Tony Stark has almost nothing to do with the morose, self-serious character he was pre-MCU.

        Thesis: RDJ’s Stark is only possible because of Bale’s Wayne.

        You're dead on there. I'd also credit them with somehow making Cap a relatable human being, which I wasn't sure could be done in live action.

        Part of that credit goes to Chris Evans too. He sold the shit out of that role.
