RDJ and the team polished the script and made Stark charming, confident and likable. Great movie! Fun to see where these things start.
Movies need more of this whole un-cut take stuff, adds so much to the performance when there isn't distractions in between every sentence and you get to see the gears turning in their head between lines.
"History was made" hahahaha. The russians are right about you people you have no hero's or stories to speak of just cartoons and movies and you lap it up and historical and groundbreaking.
We're so accustomed to seeing pure greatness from the Tony Stark character that we take for granted just how far RDJ has come. Such an absolute gold find.
For a person who had lost so much and this was his chance for a comeback, you can hear the nervousness in his voice. But ofcourse as you get into the character more and more and learn and practice being that character, confidence automatically showd up and he owned that role like it was meant to be.
