The story: Fresh from saving the world in “The Avengers,” Tony Stark (Downey) is stripped of his money and toys in this back-to-basics story that combines the graphic novels’ Mandarin and Extremis story lines.
The buzz: Downey’s Iron Man has appeared in three movies. They’ve all opened the first Friday in May. They’ve gone on to earn a combined $2.7 billion worldwide. It ain’t broke. It ain’t being fixed.
