Jarvis Can’t Scan Helicopters, But He Can Recreate Crime Scenes!
Minutes 31-35
In this episode of Marvel Movie Minute, Kyle Olson and Rob Kubasko dive into minutes 31 through 35 of Iron Man 3. As they explore this action-packed segment, they discuss Jarvis’s virtual crime scene reconstruction, Tony Stark’s confrontation with Dr. Maya Hansen, and the shocking missile attack on Stately Stark Manor.
From Virtual Crime Scenes to Questionable Security Measures
Throughout these minutes of Iron Man 3, Rob and Kyle delve into a wide range of topics, including Jarvis’s impressive ability to recreate crime scenes without knowing how they occurred. However, they also question the AI’s apparent lack of awareness when it comes to scanning helicopters flying around the property, some of which are loaded with munitions and missiles.
The hosts also discuss the return of Dr. Maya Hansen, who looks exactly as she did in 1999, and her urgent need to speak with Tony alone. This leads to a humorous exchange between Tony, Pepper, and Maya, showcasing the film’s witty writing. However, the lighthearted moment is cut short when Maya notices a missile heading straight for Stark Manor on a live news feed.
Missiles, Explosions, and a Heroic Tony Stark Moment
As the episode progresses, Kyle and Rob analyze the shocking missile attack on Stately Stark Manor. While they acknowledge the incredible visuals and the heroic moment when Tony sends the suit to protect Pepper, they also question the logic behind Jarvis’s inability to detect the incoming threat.
Despite their reservations about the plot device, the hosts can’t help but admire the stunning slow-motion sequences and the reveal of another suit feature that allows Tony to send it to someone else. The episode concludes with a cliffhanger, as multiple helicopters converge on the manor, ready to unleash a barrage of missiles, while Maya lies unconscious and Pepper dons the suit for the first time.
The minutes covered in this episode of Marvel Movie Minute showcase both the thrilling action and the questionable plot points in Iron Man 3. From Jarvis’s inconsistent capabilities to the jaw-dropping special effects, these scenes set the stage for a intense and visually stunning attack on Tony Stark’s home. As Kyle and Rob continue their journey through the film, viewers can expect more in-depth discussions and insights into this pivotal entry in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
