I’ve watched this piece countless times now. I’ve slowed it down. Sped it up. Paused it. Screengrabbed and expanded it and I still think what I thought on my first watch. My gut tells me that this isn’t Tony in the suit.
It isn’t just the body type (hips too narrow/gait of walk off/and man, that really does not look like Downey’s ass). It’s the left hand.
By now Tony has been Iron Man for ten plus years. The raising of his hand to fire the repuslor is beyond automatic. It is bone deep. It is muscle memory. The armor is part of him. He literally does it in his sleep in IM3. There is no way that Tony Stark, the man who fought Thor, who took on two super soldiers at once without even a second thought is going to suddenly forget how to plant his feet and raise his hand. Tony Stark never backed down from a fight in his life. Even as they were torturing him in the cave he remained defiant and fought back.
Tony isn’t the only person on that planet Peter (parker) is up there with him.
And if that is Tony in that shot, then Marvel threw character out the window and fucked up big time.
But I honestly, truly think that isn’t Tony in that armor.
YEs, I thought the same thing. That little mannerism, the slight lifting of the hand to block, not attack, is so Peter Parker. I just… I can’t.
And isn’t Peter hurt in the trailer, apologizing to Tony? Did Peter steal his suit for some reason?
Like Patroclus donning Achilles armor and going to face Hektor-I also see Peter here, no way is that Tony moving his hand/arm like that, standing moving like that in the suit.
