I said 3 rings MINIMUM. I’ve seen him wear 6-8 🙄
Does he rap now too? If so, I think it's time for an intervention.
I don’t count your gaudy rings, I just know I’ve seen you with at least 3 rings to a hand before

Interesting. I have to admit, that is the fist image I've ever seen of the Mandarin from the comics. He looks like a much more interesting character than what I saw in Iron Man 3. As someone unfamiliar with most of the comics though, Kingsley was the highlight of the movie for me.



That was part of the contention.  Take the only real interesting Iron Man villain...cast Sir Ben freaking Kinglsy as him...then give us....that.  Total Waste.  But...they did later reveal there is the Real Mandarin in the MCU in a one shot.  He is due to appear in the Shang Chi film.



But in the realm of the Ironman trilogy, the most other-worldly event was the reference to the events of New York (Avengers). Everything else they tried to contain within the spectrum of "real-world" science-based sci-fi. Notice how they never once mention an Infinity Stone in that trilogy? So a dude that has ten rings with powers derived from alien tech is a bit "out there".

I don't consider them a "trilogy" myself since they are part of a larger whole...more like chapters.  But while that worked for IM 1 and 2...it was one of the many reasons IM 3 was trash IMO.  Tony had now met gods, monsters and seen things he never though would happen.  Then was the time to bring the "magical" into his more personal world.

I'll cop to that Grin But only when I wanted to look ridiculous.

Rockers where rings too.

In my minute of research I gave the character, I too discovered this as well.

I think this was one of the advantages of coming into the MCU with no comic knowledge. I could see them as cinematic ONLY, and then be able to judge if the story elements gelled. For the frame of the movie, I think it worked. I thought the deception was diabolically genius....like Sith level sneaky.

You'll be happy to know that when they made Lego Marvel Superheroes the Mandarin was in fact the one from the comics.....which confused the hell outta me. Sad

I need him in fighting order. Pain is a great motivator but the knee is a weakness. He will kneel in due time
